Hi, I'm looking for dresses for holidays (Tenerife in July so it will be very hot) I'm seeing lots of strapless dresses but hate strapless bras. Do most of you:

  1. wear strapless bras & suffer on
  2. have your (same colour) bra straps on show
  3. go braless

I'm 43 (size 30E) so don't know if braless is an option for me.

I'm usually a shorts/vest top type girl on holiday but I'm trying to up my game.

What do you wear on holidays and still look nice.

Thanks.

You need to get this moved to Style and Beauty.

Option 4 , choose a non strapless dress

Yup, strapless is not an option here! I’m 45 with big boobs so I just buy dresses I can wear a bra with, strapless bras are never good imo.

Definitely non-strapless dresses.

Strapless bras are a no-no. Buy dresses with shoestring straps and wear a proper bra

Don't buy strapless dresses

Do not wear strapless bra, buy a bra with a lovely strap or a nice colour and then wear with spaghetti strap dresses.

lol. I know but all the pretty dresses that I am seeing are strapless/thin straps. Think I will do like another poster said and buy a bra with pretty straps.

That is a good idea, thanks 😊

Bit of a novice here. How do I get this moved please? Thanks,

I like the shirred top type dress it keeps them secure enough to walk to bar, restaurant and back to hotel 😂

I wear a strapless bra. Try Wonderbra Ultimate, I'm a 30G and it is perfectly fine to wear all day. Alternatively, I would rather have bikini straps on show than bra, so with some dresses, I wear bikini tops in matching colours. And third option, sew a bra into the dress.

I either try to buy dresses with the ruffle shoulder straps that cover a bra strap well or if it's bandeau, I like a ruffle across the front so I can go braless without it being obvious.
I do have a really comfortable body all in one that can be worn strapless from Next, it's good for over here but on holiday it might be too hot!
