The style of some garments makes wearing a traditional bra impossible, so may find yourself seeking alternative products that offer lift and support.

A quick Google search will show that there are a huge variety of products on the market which sit under the ‘braless breast support’ category - but some are simply not all they’re cracked up to be.

Products like bunny ears and stick-on bra’s often don’t offer the best support and as they don’t move with you, they can often tend to lose their stick.   

With so many products on the market, you can be forgiven for being confused about what to wear instead of a bra.

To help you decide, here are a few things to consider when choosing bust support products:

• Consider the shape of your garment.
  We recommend that you put your dress on, to assess the strap situation. Some bust support products (like bunny ears) actually sit quite high, so they wont be suitable for strapless or spaghetti straps, and a stick on bra will not be suitable for low cut dresses, tops and blazers.
  
  Tata Tape can be cut to size and can be wrapped to suit any style of dress, depending on the level of support and hold that you need. Our boob tape is perfect for low cut necklines, but surprisingly supportive for spaghetti straps or strapless style dresses too! Check out our ‘How to Style’ page for detailed instructions on how to wrap our boob tape.
  
  
  
• Consider the thickness of the product vs your garments fabric.
  Some products, like bunny ears and stick-on bras are semi-padded and as such, are really thick, which will show under silky and shiny fabrics. They also tend to have big ridges, which means the outline of the product will show.
  
  Tata Tape is made with a 95% cotton and 5% spandex tape, a bit like a sticky bandage. The cotton will not stick to silky fabrics and the tape sits flat on your skin. Our boob tape is designed to provide you with discreet support!
  
  
• Consider the stretch of the boob tape.
  Some boob tape products on the market don’t have any stretch at all, which make them ridged and not nice to wear. You will want to find a product that has some stretch to it, so it doesn’t restrict your movements and pull at your skin.
  
  Our Tata Tape product uses 5% spandex and ‘wave technology’ in the adhesive, which allows for the tape to stretch and move with you - which is why our product has superior stick that stays put all day or night.

If you have never tried breast lift tape before, we recommend that you give our superior quality boob tape a try! Tata Tape is the best solution for what to wear when you can’t wear a bra. You will love our products.
