The Best 16 Backless Bras for All of Those Tricky Tops and Dresses in Your Closet

When it comes to complicated tops like halters, cut-out blouses, and backless dresses, a backless bra is necessary. You've probably tried to wing it and go braless in one of those types of outfits, but were never quite satisfied with how the girls ended up looking. That's why we've rounded up the best 16 backless bras to help you find the right fit, no matter what you decide to wear.

Backless bras come in many styles. For example, there's bra tape and U-plunge backless bras to name a few. Each bra has a different level of support and coverage based on your preference. If you're bigger on top, you might prefer a low-back design for added support while maintaining the illusion of being completely backless—like this low-back strapless bra at Anthropologie.

You can also use a bra converter to transform your favorite bra into a low-back version for low-cut, keyhole and open-back trendy pieces. Keep on reading our backless bra shopping guide to find the best bra for you. Now you can finally rock those dresses and tops that have been shoved to the side in your closet. We've got your back, even if these bras don't.
