Like so many others, I've struggled for years to find a strapless bra that feels supportive, has a flattering fit and doesn't have me counting down the seconds until I can take it off. After trying out a bunch, I'd resigned to this being a pipe dream and reluctantly donned an uncomfortable strapless bra that lived in the back of my lingerie drawer any time I couldn't avoid it. But then, I noticed that a bunch of PureWow readers picked up Soma's Enbliss Wireless Strapless bra (was $62, now $43) during a recent sale, and with tons of reviews claiming a comfy fit and design that stays in place, I decided to give the style one more go. And, spoiler, I'm *so* glad I did.

Soma

When I first opened the Enbliss Wireless Strapless bra, I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical. It's a fuller coverage than I usually opt for, and I was concerned how it would lay under clothes like thin tank tops. But as soon as I put it on, I completely understood why so many shoppers flock to it. Because of its wireless design, the bra didn't dig into my sides the way others I've worn in the past have. I also ended up loving the full coverage, because it felt secure and didn't result in any bulging at the top or sides, and it had a super smooth fit.

When it came time to wear the bra for a full day out when I knew I wouldn't be able to change until nighttime, I still hesitated to choose it over a lightweight bralette. I mean, I was expecting to wear it for hours on end—there was no way I wouldn't find myself stashing it in my purse halfway through the day (you know you've done it, too), right? Wrong. Despite having the bra on from breakfast through a late dinner, I didn't once feel the need to get it off my body immediately, and what's even more impressive is that I barely needed to adjust it to feel fully supported. I've worn it a few more times since (after machine-washing it and hanging it to dry), and the experience of wearing it was just as good every time.

For reference, I'm a 36C in this style (a decidedly average size), but according to reviews, it works just as well for both smaller and larger busts, too. "As a 34G, I’ve avoided wearing strapless bras for years mainly because of lack of support and discomfort but I was pleasantly surprised with the Enbliss! Very comfortable," shared one shopper. Another said, "I thought I wouldn’t like a full coverage bra, especially being small chested. I can honestly say this is most comfortable bra and most flattering I’ve ever worn. It’s not one that I’m dying to rip off right when I get home. Feels supportive and gives good shape."

Needless to say, I (along with plenty of other Soma shoppers) am *big* fan of the Enbliss Wireless Strapless bra, and if you're curious about it now, too, you should know that it comes in four different colors and band sizes of 32 through 42 and cup sizes A through G. Removable straps are also included with it, so you can add them on to wear it as a halter, crisscross back, traditional or one-shoulder style. As for the composition of the bra's material, it's made from a nylon and spandex blend with a polyester inner lining—my only complaint as I always prefer natural fabrics like cotton, especially for undergarments. It's also designed with four different hook closure options at the back (which are cushioned, too!), so you have options for how tight or loose it fits.

The Bottom Line

If you can't already guess by now, I definitely recommend this bra to anyone looking for an affordable, comfortable strapless bra that can be used for everyday wear. In fact, now that it's on sale for less than $50, I plan to go back for a second color, and I suggest you take advantage of the savings, too, before they're gone.
