I haven't worn strapless for 10 years. However, as a bridesmaid who wants to go with the flow I told the bride choose any dress and I will find a solution. Hence my search for the dreaded strapless bra. I was pleasantly surprised and hopeful when I saw the rave reviews for the Luxe. However, after numerous returns and trying what feels like every size and a few other styles just to be sure, I realise why I've avoided strapless for 10 yrs! Not supportive, despite ending up with the smallest back size and largest cup. Not flattering! It made me look rather wide and i felt my boobs were on the floor. However, all that being said, it's actually the best of a very bad bunch. I have kept the last one basically because I have no choice. If daring to go strapless order a few sizes including larger cups and smaller back. You can tell a lot of work has gone into this bra and I appreciate it must be a challenge to defy gravity and provide any degree of lift and support. Good luck designers!

This is the best strapless bra I have ever owned, and I have quite a few! I wore it for 12 hours yesterday and it was so comfortable I forgot I was wearing a strapless bra. There was no pinching or slipping, it stayed firmly in place and didn't make my boobs look a funny shape. It is also lovely to wear with straps as an every day bra. The material is soft, but unlike many strapless bras the stripes, buttons and bows are really pretty. I'm usually a 34FF in Freya/Panache, but had to drop a cup size in this as it gaped at the top. The customer service from Bravissimo in doing my exchange was brilliant. It is a bit on the expensive side but worth every penny. I have finally found my perfect strapless bra, thank you Curvy Kate!

I never had an strapless bra that worked for me. While I was having my fitting at the Covent garden store, the amazing bra fitter brought me this bra to try on. At the first sight I did not liked it,I found it ugly because the form at the front and its beige colour but after trying it with an strapless top, I totally changed my mind. Fabulous bra, supportive and does the job wonderfully.

I honestly love this bra, i find it a little shallow but its okay, it still fits really well, it holds up my breasts and they're really heavy, it's very comfortable and it's one of my everyday bras

This bra is just fab. I haven't had the chance to wear it out yet, but having experimented over the years with wonderbra's strapless creations that are really cumbersome and uncomfortable/ sweaty (IMO) this bra is 100% lovely. The way that the cups cup my boobs just makes perfect sense and seems to really eliminate the need for straps. I love the fact however that there is an option to wear straps with this bra. A vintage cute delight! Highly recommended!

Being a 30G I didnt think I would ever be able to a wear a strapless bra but this bra is incredible!! So comfy and put them exactly where I wanted them! The staff were also super helpful in store in making sure I was getting exactly what I wanted from the bra

Very uncomfortable bra, digs right into my breast bone, however, my friends had no problem so i think its different for different people. I had the wrong size and got it changed but that hasn't made a difference, looking forward to taking it back and swapping it for a different bra.

I was looking for a multi-way bra for ages but nothing really fit me. This one was a great surprise tho. My usual size for Curvy Kate and it's a perfect fit. Even without the straps this bra offers me the support I need and expect and it's so comfy! The cups are cut slightly higher then I expected but still very happy.
