Backless, silk evening dress…..
I’m small chested so could get away without a bra but worried see my nipples through the silk. What do people do?
Are there bras I don’t know about for this situation?
Nipple tape?
Full disclaimer- the dress handball arrived yet so I could be worrying about nothing.

Silicon nipple pasties. A pack is about £3

Why would you be worried about people seeing your nipples through a dress? They're just part of your body.

I’m just personally not comfortable with it. I guess in the same way we all have preferences for anything.

I have a whole box full of different styles of nipple covers, boob tape and stick on bras for different dresses. The best invention since sliced bread.

So is camel toe but it isn’t a look many aspire to.

Having said that, my nipples aren’t normally so prominent that I get self conscious about them so I am happy to go braless in most situations when the dress or top demands It.

You can get stick on backless/strapless bras at M&S. I found it ok till I was dancing a lot and got hot. If you think you might get cold & the dress is thin then I’d get what’s been recommended by previous posters. Otherwise I wouldn’t worry.

Stick on bra , DD used this with her prom dress, worked brilliantly, there are clear sticky panels at the side so depending on the dress they may be visible but if you want to feel more covered this is a good solution.

Was going to suggest this. Mine are like traffic cones and they work brilliantly when I want to wear something without a bra

I thought they might unscrew, but just tried mine and they don't, unless they are seized on, perhaps I'll try some WD40...

By that rationale, just go naked eh.

Some people have extremely prominent nipples.

If I go bra less it's very obvious and I look permanently aroused. Absolutely not going to do that.

I second stick on nipple covers.
