Backless Dresses & the NuBra

I bought a whole bunch of backless / lace-back dresses last month and I have yet to wear them. I've always loved the look of backless dresses because it looks so sexy, but classy at the same time. I've always found the back to be one of the sexiest parts of a woman.

However, I haven't worn these yet because I don't have a bra to wear it with so that it won't show! And you know... as a member of the itty bitty titty committee (hehe) I pretty much have no boobies so finding a bra is a hard thing to do. On top of having small boobies, I have a really small ribcage, so I need a small bandsize as well. For some reason, none of the commercial lingerie companies make a 28 or 30 band size.

But I've been looking around, and many people recommended I try out the NuBra.


I've had silicon sticky bras before, but I've always found them to be really heavy and don't stick well throughout the day. The specific one I was told to get was the Super Padded version (same as featherlite version but more padded), which is 70% lighter than the original silicone version, AND it comes as small of a cup size as AA. Score. It was designed for smaller chested women and juniors (hah!). I've read lots of reviews from small chested ladies and they said that this version has worked very well for them, so took a chance and I bought one off eBay, so hopefully it does what it's supposed to do!

When I receive it in the mail, I will be posting a review, so keep your eyes peeled!

In the meantime:

Have any of you ladies tried the NuBra?
 How was your experience with it?

  2. Hey Yvonne! I was skeptical about the NuBra but a friend who used to work at La Senza had gifted me one, and I love it! Pretty useful, especially in the summer when tank tops are abound. They just have the regular one at La Senza but I'm guessing it should be pretty similar. I've never ordered anything from wholesale7, is the quality pretty good? Hope your NuBra doesn't disappoint!

  5. i'm dying for a review. i was gonna order them off revolve because i notice they sold it there. but i'm a skeptic of the nubra-like bras (things that just sick to your boobies never look natural or give lift). 

    i pray that nubra lives up to the hype!

  8. Looks little awkward but it's a must have because when the day comes and if you don't have it, it's like you need whole another plan! x)

  9. I totally saw the NuBra at a department store when I was Christmas shopping. I was very intrigued because I too am about of the itty bitty committee (harhar). I have the silicone sticky bras, but they always seem to make the "girls" look loppsided. Anyway, looking forward to your review on it! I might just go out and get it myself because I LOVE backless dresses.

  17. Can't wait to read your Nu Bra review, I wanted to wear this backless dress for my company's Christmas party but couldn't find a proper bra. Great dresses! 

    From what I heard, the hardware for Marc Jacobs/MbMJ tends to be on the heavy side. I was going to get my mom the Blake bag but I passed after hearing how heavy it is. I'm more of a smaller size bag girl. I'm only 5'1 and I find that anything about 14" in length just looks way too giant on me! Works out I guess cause I bring less and I worked in a physio office before, they really know how to scare you out of wearing big bags lol

  19. Argh, I hate the bra issue that comes with lovely strapless or backless dresses - it can be so frustrating! This NuBra seems like a good option so I hope it works when you get it and use it :)

    The black lace dress is gorgeous  :)

  20. I've never tried it...but I've heard it does good things :)  I know I've always had trouble finding bras too because I've got B size boobs, but my ribcage is like a 30 or 32.  Plus I had padded bras, so it just whomps trying to find one in my size that's JUST my size with no additions!  Hope it works out for ya, because those dresses are lovely and I want to see you work them!

  30. I have a thing similar to Nubra but its not called that but the shape and stuff is the same. However i feel like yes it does stay on but i feel like it doesnt shape as much as i'd like it to. They're handy for backless or low back garments. I cant wait for your review !

  32. Better one, that gorgeous backless dress really looks awesome. The model is also smiling beautifully; I believe she has shaped her breasts with Bye Bra breast stickers.
    This hottie has nicely lifted her breasts. I think she is wearing Bye Bra breast stickers to fit that appealing strapless dress.
