This strapless bra from Wacoal has a 4.8-star rating with more than 1,200 reviews on Nordstrom, and for good reason. The smoothing bra features molded cups and light foam padding to provide a comfortable, natural shape, while the back and sides have boning and gripper strips to help keep the bra in place. “This bra fit me perfectly. It’s very comfortable and flattering. I have several boatneck tees and I don’t like my bra straps to show. This bra is the perfect solution. I also found out that in hot weather it’s cooler to not have straps on my shoulders. I ended up buying a second one,” raved one customer.
