How to choose and wear a tube bra

by Sonam Tripathi Fashion

Banish those straps and banish those red grooves that appear on your shoulders at the end of the day. Banish all of these bra woes with a tube bra or bandeau bra that gives your breasts good support while making you look ravishing in your strapless dress. A tube bra does not have straps but it stays in place as it is crafted out of elastic material that fits you perfectly and gives you the chance to show off your gorgeous shoulders. And the best part about a tube bra is…wait for it…it does not have a hook and closure at the back! The fabric of this bra is elastic enough to keep it in place. If you are wondering what kind of tube bra will work for you and your breasts, let’s give you an idea about how to select one.

·         Padded or non-padded; that is the question

Most tube bras come with a pocket that gives you the option of adding or removing pads. You can buy one that comes with the option of removable pads and depending on the kind of look you want, you can add or remove the pads. This makes it easy for you to wash the bra too as you can put the bra in the washer after removing the pads which you can wash separately, to keep them from getting spoiled.

·         White on white is not the way to go

In case you wish to wear the tube bra under a white-colored dress or top, make sure you pick one out in a nude or beige color. Most women are under the impression that they should a white bra under a white top but it shows out more evidently from under your dress. A nude-colored bra will blend in with the color of your skin and give you a seamless finish.

·         Match the color of the bra to your scoop neck

When you don’t want your cleavage to show from underneath a scoop neck top or a dress, all you need to do is match a tube bra with it in the same color. The tube bra will give your breasts a rounded shape and not reveal the cleavage at all. Match the color of the dress or top with that of the bra and try picking one in lace so that even if it is visible at the neckline it becomes a part of the dress rather than standing out. A lace tube is meant to be flaunted and adds to the beauty of your dress.


·         Are you just a little over-endowed?

Tube bras might not you the support that you are looking for if you are heavily endowed as the bra might not be able to support your breasts alone. Heavy breasts need the support of a strong bra band and shoulder straps or else you run the risk of the bra slipping down.

·         Not an ideal pick for an active day

If your day involves a lot of physical activity like running around and lifting your arms, then you should avoid wearing the tube bra. You would not want to be seen fidgeting with the bra all day.

How to wear a tube bra

Since it does not have a hook and closure you simply have to slip it over your shoulders and scoop over breasts to place them in the bra so that they don’t look droopy. It is as easy to wear as it is easy to carry all day long without getting bothered by hooks or the straps digging in. So go ahead and buy your tube bras now and in all colors.
