Knix, American Eagle
After I graduated high school, I stopped wearing underwire bras because they were so incredibly uncomfortable. I felt like I was always adjusting them as the band was literally digging into my skin (I have what appears to be a permanent mark on my skin where the wire ba would go now).
And if you have a larger chest, finding a wireless bra that’s actually supportive and not flimsy can feel impossible, not to mention that a lot of bras in general that are specifically made for bigger busts just aren’t that cute.

This bra comes in sizes 36C-44DD and in colors white, gray and almond. The lining in the cups is made with moisture-wicking and cooling technology to keep you comfortable all day. The straps are wider than those of most bras and come camisole-style for extra comfort and padding on your shoulders.
Promising review: "I’m extremely picky about what I wear when it comes to comfort, especially with bras! I’ve been buying this same bra for years. Just went up a size after a pregnancy. I’m DDD and without underwire it still provides perfect support. It’s thin enough that I can nurse with it on just by pulling one side down and thick enough that nips don’t poke out. It’s well made and comfortable enough that I can sleep in it every night. There’s no other style or brand more perfect." — JJ
