1. Warner's Easy Does It No Bulge Wire-Free Bra
Let’s kick off this year’s ‘best wireless bra’ list with the Warner’s Women’s Easy-Does-It No-Bulge Wire-Free Bra. Like most Warner’s products, this bra is amazing quality AND affordable. It’s our 2019 numero uno for good reason!
The Pros
Here comes the most obvious pro—it’s wireless! It is no secret that a little less restriction is better for the girls. Perfect for you ladies who aren’t so comfortable with going totally braless, while still in need of that extra support. This wire-free gem also features a widened side-panel to smooth out underarm bulges.
Constructed from a combination of Nylon and Spandex; the bra is fully machine washable. Another pro is the slightly wider shoulder-straps. Such a small alteration in design can make a stark difference to your comfort. Say goodbye to dented shoulders!
The Cons
I’ll be honest, it’s been a real mission to dig up some cons on this one. For comfort and practicality this is certainly one of the best wireless bras out there. That said, I’ll admit it’s rather unsightly. This bra isn’t the sexiest or prettiest wire-free bra we’ve found. Though, sexy isn’t what Warners were going for with this one. I think we can let them off the hook.
Size and Color Range
With a generous range of ten assorted colors, you can make this bra work with any skin tone or outfit! This wireless-wonder also comes in sizes from X-small to XX-Large. Making it a top pick for the best wire-free bra for large breasts.
Support
The great size range of this bulge-free brassiere deems it perfect for the larger chest. Not only does it cater for the larger cup, it also features the wide straps to help hold the extra weight. These features make the Warner’s Easy-Does-It bra one of the most supportive wireless bras for 2019.
Reviews
Lee says; “I absolutely love this bra. It’s comfortable enough to sleep in and supportive enough (for me) to work out in. It’s nice and stretchy and the adjustments on the clap and straps are very accommodating. It doesn’t give me ‘uniboob’ at all. The cups are nice and soft, and they separate well. There is no nipple ‘show through’ and it isn’t really padded but there is a nice layer of cup support.”
2. Calvin Klein Women's Carousel Triangle Bralette
It’s no surprise to see our good friend Calvin Klein on this list. Our ‘knight in shining cotton’ has done it again. We’re going for something slightly different here with the triangle shape. A trendy design in the wire-free world. This one is perfect for a naturally perky, smaller chest.
The Pros
Three words. Cotton, cotton and cotton. We love the stuff! A major pro for comfort in a wireless bra. Stylishly designed with Calvin’s signature neutral colouring and logos; this bra can also make a cheeky appearance as an outfit accessory.
Despite the garment’s inclination toward the smaller bust, you curvy gals mustn’t lose hope. It comes in a range of sizes up to an X-Large! The voluptuous Kim Kardashian is living proof that this dainty wireless bra can still be a friend to curves.
The Cons
While the thinner straps in a bra are nice and subtle, they can cause digging into your shoulders if you’re on the chestier side. This can cause discomfort. Another con is the washing requirement. Please don’t make us hand-wash our bras, Calvin! Us gals on-the-go simply don’t have time!
Size and Color Range
As I’ve mentioned in the pros, we have a selection of Calvin Klein’s signature neutral color range. From black and grey, to nude and white. Making life easier when it comes to working your wireless bra with outfits.
Starting from a modest X-Small, ranging to an X-Large—it shouldn’t be too hard to get this bad girl in your size! Though, as a triangle-shaped wireless bra, it may not be very roomy in the cup. Checking your measurements before committing to this one might be a clever idea.
Support
If we were scoring support on a scale of one to ten; I’d give this one a six. Not a front runner for larger breast support, but still a contender. Support-wise, this would be the best wireless bra for small breasts.
Reviews
Mariana says; “This bralette by Calvin Klein is AWESOME. I have a health condition that I have an issue with tight, scratchy or even just a bit annoying fabrics/clothes. The CK bralettes are incredibly comfy and this one in particular gives you a really nice form, just as if it was a push up or had wires. You can use it if your dress or blouse has a nice cleavage. And the black is great.”
3. Wacoal Embrace Lace Wire Free Soft-Cup Bralette
Yet another excellent brand in our line-up of the best wire-free bras! Introducing Wacoal’s Embrace Lace Soft-cup Bra. This lacey-lass has no shortage of raving reviews. With sexy styling and a wireless design, it has become very popular among the ladies who embrace their freedom!
The Pros
The lace is a stellar feature for this gem. Mostly the point of going wire-free is for comfort, but why not throw a little sexiness in the mix? The bra also comes with an elastic band for comfort AND support for the larger chest. While it has a triangle shape, there’s still room in the cup. Making this bra one of the trendiest, and best wire-free bras for larger breasts.
The Cons
The delicate lace overlay means you must be gentle with washing it. Wacoal recommend to hand wash, hang to dry and warn against ironing or dry cleaning. Seems a lot of effort for a daily bra. A few reviewers, while they say they love the bra; they also mention tightness around the ribcage. While this may help in support—it can obviously cause some discomfort.
Size and Color Range
Oh, so many colors! You rarely see such a generous color range for any bra. With this garment you can be wire-free in up to twenty different hues! As for size, they range from a 30 to a 42. If you’re unsure on your fit; Wacoal kindly provide a sizing chart to help with your measurements.
Support
This gal ups the ante with double-layer cups and built-in side boning for added support. The adjustable and convertible straps also have a handy ‘J-hook’ to convert the bra into a racerback for added support and shape.
In other words—we’ll call it an eight on the support scale.
Reviews
Karen says; “As much as I can like a bra. This is my go-to bra brand now. I am thrilled that they sell size 40. I may even go up to 42. Being able to breathe fully without constriction is more important to me than having everything hoisted super-high.”
Melanie says; “Quality is good, as I’d expect from Wacoal. It supports as well as any stretchy non-underwire bra could. Obviously, you won’t get the kind of support you’d get from an underwire, but even as a D-cup, it’s decent enough to wear out in public.”
4. Warner’s Elements of Bliss Wire-Free Lift Bra
Elements of bliss is right. Another Warner’s genius creation. They seem to know exactly what they’re doing when it comes to the making the best, most comfortable wireless bras.
The Pros
One major pro is the perfect mix of comfort and lift. You get all the freedom of a wireless bra with the added perk of, well, perkiness! It’s not very often you come across a wireless push-up bra. It also features a plunge neckline, so you can easily adapt to a low-cut top or dress. Last but not least, it’s actually machine-washable! Whoop whoop!
The Cons
The added push-up can leave a little less room in the cup, which can make the sizing confusing as it’s not classed as a push-up bra. A few unlucky ladies have ordered their exact size without allowing extra padding. Luckily, this is the only con we could dig up and it’s totally avoidable. Just make sure you allow for the smaller cup!
Size and Color Range
Starting from a 34A, running up to a 40D. If you ask me, I think Warner’s could have at least gone for a DD. I’m sure the curvier of lasses would like a lifted wireless bra in their closet. Though, what this bra lacks in size range it makes up for in it’s color range. Leopard print, lace, metallic, floral, natural, you name it! You’ll have no trouble finding one to fit your personal style.
Support
As has been mentioned, this bra has an extra amount of padding for that extra lift and support. It has adjustable straps for a better fit, and closed-shaped cups to prevent the girls from joining you on a night out.
Reviews
Amy says; “Buy it now!!! Being a devout fan of VS wireless tee shirts bras, I found that paying $50 for bras that the straps fray out was ridiculous…so I took a chance and tried this bra. Super impressed! I ended up ordering a second one after two days of having this! It’s not padded yet has lift. The straps fully adjust, meaning they don’t limit you halfway…if that makes sense. It doesn’t slip. Give this a try!! You’ll be glad you did!! I usually wear a 36D in VS. I got a 36D in this and on the last hooks, it was a smidge loose, but still fine. The 34 on the middle is perfect.”
Emily says; “I wish I could give it 6 stars! I am happy with the quality of the material, the overall shape of the padded cups, and the straps as they are a touch wider offering comfort for the shoulders.”
5. Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Lightly Lined Wirefree Contour Bra
Calvin’s back! We missed the fella. Only saw him two bras ago but who’s counting? Here we find ourselves moving away from the trendy-triangle, and on to your practical contour bra. Surprisingly, we’re moving away from the cotton too! What’s happening!?
The Pros
Normally, I’d rant about my love of cotton when it comes to a Calvin creation. Now I’m not sure where to begin! Maybe the push-up feature is a good place to start. How often do we find a great wireless bra to give the girls a list? I’ll give you a clue—there’s not many on this list. Push-up bras are famously uncomfortable if made in the wrong hands. Though, according to reviews, Calvin Klein have kept the comfort train on track. Another pro is the seamless cup design. Making it ever so easy to keep a smooth and subtle shape under your top.
The Cons
The added push-up can leave a little less room in the cup, which can make the sizing confusing as it’s not classed as a push-up bra. A few unlucky ladies have ordered their exact size without allowing extra padding. Luckily, this is the only con we could dig up and it’s totally avoidable. Just make sure you allow for the smaller cup!
Size and Color Range
Starting from a 34A, running up to a 40D. If you ask me, I think Warner’s could have at least gone for a DD. I’m sure the curvier of lasses would like a lifted wireless bra in their closet. Though, what this bra lacks in size range it makes up for in color choices. Leopard print, lace, metallic, floral, natural, you name it! You’ll have no trouble finding one to fit your personal style.
Support
As already mentioned, this bra has an extra amount of padding for that extra lift and support. It has adjustable straps for a better fit and closed-shaped cups to prevent the girls from joining you on a night out.
We’ll give this one a seven out of ten for support!
Reviews
Sam says; “I don’t like bras with underwire, and finding wire-free bras that are still lined enough to keep from poking out are a rarity. So I snapped these up and hoped upon hope that I would like them. I LOVE THEM. They fit perfectly, don’t gap or bunch, are soft, and the straps don’t bother me even though they are convertible and have a little hook in the back. I haven’t needed to use the racerback feature yet, but I’m glad it’s there.”
6. Spanx Pillow Cup Signature Bra
Spanx is a big name when it comes to comfort and flattery. This bra is no exception. The ‘pillow cup’ allows for a slight lift with extra softness and shape. While the back has a smoothed-out design to avoid the awkward back-bulge. Thanks, Spanx!
The Pros
The hidden bulging is number one on our pros list. I think most girls with a heavier chest feel a little insecure about back-bulges showing. It’s mostly unavoidable, but the combination of zero underwire and a smoothed out back, easily makes this one of the best bras for larger breasts. It also features adjustable, widened straps to avoid any digging discomfort for your shoulders.
The Cons
I’ll start with the most common con; hand wash! I mean, it’s understandable with the material being mostly nylon. It’s just my lazy alter ego complaining. The only other downfall to point out is the limited size and color range, which I shall explain:
Size and Color Range
Something I find very confusing about this bra; it’s perfectly designed for a bigger chest, yet only goes up to a 38D. D cup is still fairly large, but this bra would a be perfect design for a double D and up. As for the color range, we have black or nude to choose from. They’re both very convenient colors, though we’d always appreciate a few more options!
Support
This is very much an ‘every day’ bra. It’s been designed for all-day comfort and support. Spanx have done an excellent job at avoiding the wired-bra discomforts. From the pillow cup, to the wire-free supporting shape and the smooth back design—this bra is great for all-day, everyday support. An absolute closet staple!
Reviews
Jo says; “This is by far the best wireless bra I’ve ever had. I can no longer wear wire bras, and have been on the hunt for a great supportive wireless that doesn’t look or fit like a leisure bra. I have since ordered all I can find in 38d. I sure hope they didn’t stop making this bra, I would be very upset.”
7. Wacoal Women’s How Perfect Soft Cup Bra
Wacoal has so kindly provided us with a go-to wireless t-shirt bra. Let’s be honest… we all need one. Any bulging from wires, straps or spillage is far too visible in a tee. So, how have they engineered a bra to avoid all these problems? Let’s dig into the pros and find out.
The Pros
The highlight of this wire-free gem is the contoured cups. We can fancy-up wireless bras all we like, but sometimes you just want that support without the pesky underwire. This bra will provide that comfort and support you’re looking for in an everyday, wire-free bra. It features your trusty hook and eye closure, with a smooth brushed outer fabric for extra softness.
The Cons
There’s not a lot of cons with this one! Other than my usual lazy complaint; Sir Hand Wash is in the building. We’re not friends and I’d like him to leave. He’s only allowed back if he brings a washing machine.
Size and Color Range
The size range is slightly odd, starting from a 30B to a 40B. Surely if you’re already making bra’s up to a 40, you could bring the cup to at least a D? Although, reviews suggest it has a roomy cup. This could make up for the lack of cup size in the larger range. We have a decent color range, mostly neutral colors. We wouldn’t ask for more with this type of bra. It’s quite clearly for casual, everyday wear.
Support
I think we’ve highlighted the reasons for this bra’s great support! Let’s just skip the rambling and give it a nine out of ten, shall we?
Reviews
Amy says; “OMGGGGG. Seriously. This is the best bra in the world!! I ordered not realizing there was no underwire (spoiler alert: there’s no underwire) and was mildly furious upon its arrival. I wear a 36DD I need an underwire…. Or so I thought. This bra is magical. Supportive, flattening. The material is so soft. I am in love Wacoal, you’ve done it again.”
8. Wacoal How Perfect Full Figure Wire-Free Bra
It’s all in the name. How perfect? Full-figured ladies, rejoice! A wireless marvel, especially for you! Wonderful, wonderful Wacoal has done it.
The Pros
We’ll begin with the obvious inclusivity for the full-figured goddess. I wont tip-toe around the statement; This is the best wire-free bra for large breasts. That’s right, THE best. It’s size range, shape and support features are all designed for the bigger fun-bags. This bra also features widened, elastic, and adjustable straps for extra support and comfort. It’s no wonder this jewel has raving reviews from the curvy lasses.
The Cons
A few reviews have pointed out a little side-boning which has been added for extra support. While it can be handy—for some it may be a touch uncomfortable. Also; hand wash, hand wash, hand wash. This time I’m not mad at it, though. A small sacrifice for this one, I think.
Size and Color Range
Three letters; DDD! This bra starts at a pretty common 34C, then sky-rockets all the way up to a 44DDD. I’d be shocked if you couldn’t find a perfect fit. The color range is small but not boring. We have some neutral colors, mixed with baby-blues and bright pinks if you’re feeling a little funky!
Support
Seeing as it’s the most supportive bra for the bigger chest (which is a difficult task)—I’m giving this one a ten out of ten for support. Enough to rename it ‘Wacoal Women’s Over-the-Shoulder Boulder-Holder.’
Reviews
Amy says; “Great all-day comfort. I 💕 this bra. Have never worn Wacoal before. A bit pricier than I like, but a good bra is a necessity. I’m a big girl and this bra is super comfortable to me. I’ll definitely buy again!”
9. Rosa Faia by Anita Women’s Soft Bra
Here we have a lesser known brand. Though, they’ve deservingly made their way into our list for the best wiresless bras of 2019. Why, you ask? It possesses basically everything you need in a no-wire bra.
The Pros
The main attraction for this bra is the material. While it still has all the perks of a firm and supportive wireless bra; it’s also made with a stretch microfibre. This creates a firmly stretched cup while remaining soft and comfortable. The double padding ensures the girls don’t poke through, too. Here’s another perk; it’s more affordable than most bras on the list. Without shying away from quality!
The Cons
You’re probably sick of reading the words ‘hand wash’. Sorry, but don’t shoot the messenger! That’s really it. This is a good one.
Size and Color Range
Unlike most wireless bras, this bad girl runs all the way up to an F. Making it a very universal bra from the smaller to the larger chest. The color range is nothing to complain about, either! Natural, black and colorful hues make up the range of choices for this one.
Support
The material is the main hero for support here. The firm microfiber stretch holds the girls in place for everyday wear, while gentle fitting so you don’t feel like you’re being suffocated by a sports bra. Eight out of ten!
Reviews
Anonymous reviewer says; “This is the one! I’m a 32DDD and finding support without an underwire is almost impossible to find, but this is it. I personally wear these when I’m around the house – it doesn’t smush you like a sports bra or get hot like those either. You could wear this out of the house, without any trouble, but I tend to use my underwire bras for that purpose. These are super comfortable and have changed my life!”
‘A’ says; “Great support and wonderful comfort. I’ve worn underwire styles since I was 15 years old and never found anything else that gave enough support until this bra. I now own two. I hardly know I’m wearing it.”
10. Hanes Women’s Ultimate Comfy Support Wire-Free
Last, but certainly not least. Hanes has done an amazing job at creating a wireless bra which actually shapes your breasts. They have a knit-in flexible fit, to shape target areas for a perfect shape.
The Pros
Machine washable, ladies! It had to happen sometime. Hanes is our new hero. Let’s talk about the fit. I’ve mentioned the knitted fit, that’s obviously a pro. It also has adjustable shoulder straps and elastic back-straps to ensure a perfect fit around your shoulders and waist.
The Cons
The straps are quite thin, so if you’re on the curvier side—you’re likely to experience some digging from the straps. The thin panels of elastic along the edges of the back may also create a bulge.
Size and Color Range
The sizing is a little unclear. As it ranges from a small to 2XL, it’s hard to pick your exact size. Luckily, Hanes has provided a sizing chart to help, make sure you measure before you buy! As for the colors, it has a massive color range of fifteen hues! A color to suit anyone’s personal taste and style.
Support
As the knitted support stretches from four directions through the cup, this bra definitely holds shape. As for support, it’s better for the smaller to medium sized breasts. We’ll give it a six out of ten.
Reviews
Lisa says; “This is a great comfortable bra! I am a 38B and bought the large. Tried the medium but was too tight and I was kind of spilling out of it. What’s great about the bra is that it’s moderately supportive, not sweaty or itchy cause it’s not filled with polyester crap, and the straps and back closure adjust. I’ve worn this brand and style for a few years now, and just can’t go back to the big, stuffed, fake bras. Notice that there are two different bras advertised here. Get the ones that have a little strip of lace at the top of the cups, they hold up better. Don’t worry, it doesn’t itch.”
There we have it, the best wireless bras of 2019! Happy shopping, ladies!
