THE BEST BRAS FOR SUMMER

From the best strapless bra, as voted for by top UK magazine Glamour, to styles that suit every sartorial need this summer, we’ve got your seasonal bra switch up totally sorted.

Whether you’re a casual Callie or more of a dress-up Daphne, chances are that a backless number, some cami straps, or a halterneck style will make its way into your spring/summer lookbook at some point. And for summer looks, we need summer bras.

So stay comfy and cool all season long with our pick of the best: bras for summer dresses, bandeau styles and all things bra accessory…you know you can count on Boux to see you through!

WHY STRAPLESS STYLES ARE THE SUMMER BRA ESSENTIAL

The Strapless bra - a staple and a true essential, but one that can be tricky to get just right. 

Whether it’s a strapless gown for that summer event, or you need a little lift in your super-cute halter, the strapless bra is the go-to that never fails to support. That is, as long as it fits right; not falling down or digging into all the wrong places!

Glamour Magazine’s choice for the UK’s best strapless bra provides a beautiful boost, the Strapless plunge push up bra. Available in 4 skintone shades as well as in classic black, it is our number one fave too. 

Extra padding for that luscious lift combines with soft microfibre material for next-level comfort. And no need to worry about nip slips either, as its silicone tape edging takes care of that, keeping it secure in place! 

Got a backless number you’re dying to wear? Perhaps it’s plunge-cut too and you’re unsure of how to keep vibes ‘high’ up front? Look no further, as our Stick and clip bra does exactly what it says it will. With gentle silicone adhesive and lightweight, sculpted foam fabric, this one’s reviews (“A great sticky bra!”) say it all: She’ll keep everything in its place whilst you enjoy the party. And the birthday BBQs. And your best mate’s wedding.

The Microfibre strapless bra is our ultimate sidekick in all things summer wear, occasionwear and, to be honest, for when we want to feel just damn amazing. Soft and durable microfibre equals sustainable comfort. Full cup coverage and a substantial back band make it just perfect for our bigger busted babes (hello, G-cup gems!) and white, nude and black versions are all ready to be snapped up. Investing in all 3 is, without doubt, the way forward.

ALL THE SUMMER BRA ESSENTIALS YOU NEED 

With your strapless solution found, it’s time to give some thought (and drawer space) to other styles and gadgets that’ll elevate your summer bra game like never before.

Sometimes, straps are fine and it’s the back band that needs lowering. We know, you’ve been working those bent-over rows; so time to unleash the lats! The Low back converter is SO subtle under anything, is easily attached to your bra and has an adjustable slider for the perfect fit. 

Or is a racer back more your thing? Keep things spicy, with straps well out of sight, and nab the Racer back bra converter. An absolute steal at £6.00, we guarantee you’ll have this for many years (and sexy outfits) to come!

Planning to relax to the max for summer 2023? We don’t blame you; and we’ll be right there with you with pieces such as the Chevron ribbed seamless bralette and the Ribbed seamless boob tube. Both channel a carefree, cool-girl air and look amazing with your beloved denim shorts or with Boux’s bestselling Parachute pants! We think the candy pink bralette mixes comfort, sexiness and girl-on-a-mission attitude in the sweetest, most summery way possible.

But if casual is taking a backseat for a bit, then you might as well go all out. Enhance those gorgeous curves and team the Boux Breast lift tape with your fave satin, cami-style midi dress for elegant, all-out glamour. And why not go a little extra on the accessories front? The Satin nipple petals are silky, subtle and keep your nips covered; in other words, flawless festival looks and va-cay vibes are all yours.
