Hurray for Today! I’m back on The Today Show, this time answering some of your best bra and undergarment questions like: 

• What is the best strapless bra? How do you keep a strapless bra up? 
• How do you deal with underboob sweat and what bras exist for armpit sweat?  
• What bras and shapewear will enhance or smooth my silhouette?

So, I got to work and collected a few bras, shapewear, and underwear to answer these questions, including some tried and true and some new styles! With Jenna Bush Hager and co-host for the day, Niecy Nash, we walked through them one by one and had some fun. Now, you can dive in and explore more. 

Below, you’ll find the shopping links for the bras and undergarments I shared on Today, as well as additional options. Drop by your local bra boutique or shop online and test drive these styles for yourself. Each one has different features or advantages, and you get to decide how to support and adorn your unique and beautiful body. Hurray!  

Psst! Some of the brands linked here might be past or future partners of mine, but were independently chosen for this segment without compensation or contract. I’m proud to bring them your way! There might also be an affiliate link for additional options below. As always, I share what I think will support you and help you say hurray.

Supportive Strapless Bras

In my many years as a bra fitter (since 2005!), the strapless bra has always stumped clients and frustrated bra wearers. But the truth is that wearing one can help you look and feel your best in so many different outfits. And the “best” strapless bra is the one that fits and feels good. So it’s worth getting the right fit and style for you. Below are a few of my favorite for various sizes and needs, including full and petite busts.

Parfait – Elissa Strapless Longline Bra

• Strapless, semi-longline bra has a longer band for extra support 
• Smooth, light foam, underwire cups are seamless under clothes; up to US L cup! 
• Silicone elastic at the neckline and top of the back band keeps the bra in place
• Multiple hook and eye closure adds security and smooths the back 
• Colors: Pearl White, Black, Warm Sand
• 32-42 band, US C-L cups

Smoothing Bras & Tanks

Our bodies are naturally bumpy, lumpy, and squishy. And thank goodness for that little extra overhang at the armpit so we can lift our arms without ripping our skin (ow!). Bodies are not made of steel, and all of those “flaws” are a perfect part of your body’s design. Hurray! And, if you want to smooth out that gorgeous body under tight or thin clothing, there are some simple solutions to do so with ease. Controversial take: you can still honor your body and smooth things out. You can let your rolls show one day and opt for a sleek silhouette the next. It’s up to you!

Le Mystère – Smooth Shape 360 Smoother Bra

• Wireless one-piece molded foam cups and a built-in comfort frame
• Smooth bonded, raw-cut edges and flat neckline and underarm seams disappear under clothes

Breezy Cooling Bras

Raise your hand if you’re a sweaty Betty like me! Sweat is a part of life, but I’ve got a few cool ways to deal with it. From vents and perforated material, to ionic anti-microbial fibers, and sheer mesh cup. Everyone deserves to feel cool and comfortable in their own skin (and their bras!). 

Understance – Cooling FlexWire Bras

• Perforated fabric lets air and heat travel through
• Unique internal sling creates a thin, cottony barrier between underboob and torso. “One pocket per boob”

Sweatproof Solutions

Underboob sweat has nothing on underarm sweat (at least for me!). If you want to keep your clothes stain free and your fragrance fresh, I’ve got you covered. Literally. Some of these solutions are classic and some are brand new. See which option is right for you!

Silhouette Changing Shapewear

Shapewear can be a tricky topic, and can skirt the line of pushing our bodies to extreme limits to fit into a current standard of beauty. Yikes. But it can also be empowering, supportive, and downright celebratory! It’s always your decision on how you present yourself, and shapewear gives you the power to determine that day by day. Hurray!

Seamless Underwear

I know plenty of folks who go without underwear, and plenty who can’t go without. Whether you wear them or not is up to you, and whether other folks know you’re wearing them or not is up to you, too! These seamless solutions give you the option to wear underwear without the “visible panty line” showing up and causing a scene (and without having to wear a thong). As always, you get to decide. And these options are some of the best seamless underwear to buy & try for yourself.
