How to make a regular bra strapless

Ever wondered how to turn a regular bra into a temporary strapless style? You can try loosening and repositioning, or tucking the straps to the underband to repurpose your everyday bra for a specific outift. While these tricks can work in a pinch, they won't offer the same support or security as a bra designed specifically for strapless wear.

We recommend choosing a purpose-built strapless bra for the most comfortable fit and reliable support, especially for all-day wear.

- Loosen the straps as much as possible.

- Wrap each strap around the band and secure it to create extra support underneath the cups.

- Check that the band sits firmly around your body, as this provides most of the support.

- Adjust the cups and test the fit before heading out to make sure everything stays comfortably in place.

How to measure your bra size

While measuring yourself at home can provide a useful starting point, getting the right fit often takes more than just two measurements. For the most accurate results, Boux Avenue recommends booking an expert bra fitting in store. If you'd prefer to measure at home first, follow our guide to measuring your bra size.

- Measure your underbust snugly to determine your band size.

- Measure around the fullest part of your bust while wearing a non-padded bra or thin top.

- Compare your measurements with a size guide to find your recommended size.

- Try on some different styles, as fit can vary between bra designs.

How to tie your bikini top

One of the biggest swimwear trends of 2026 is tying your triangle bikini top upside down to create a different neckline and a more gathered look. It's a simple styling trick that can give your swimwear a fresh update without buying a new design.

This hack works best with a classic triangle bikini top that has adjustable ties.

- Hold the bikini top upside down so the cups are inverted.

- Tie the back strap around your neck instead of your back.

- Bring the neck ties around your back and fasten them securely.

- Adjust the cups until they sit evenly and comfortably, checking that you have the coverage and support you want.
