Women’s Lace Bras
Lace bras don't have to be scratchy or saved for special occasions. Our lace bras for women come in wired styles in A–H, including half cups, and wireless styles in XS–3X. Below, you'll find each style, what to wear under lace tops, colors, fit tips, and matching sets.
Are Lace Bras Comfortable Enough to Wear Every Day?
Yes, a comfortable lace bra can be your everyday bra when the lace is soft and the fit is right. You might picture lace as scratchy, itchy, and lumpy under clothes, but our lace is made to avoid all three. That's why our lace styles are comfortable bras you'll want to wear all day.
Each style has detailed lace around the cups, with special attention to the straps and the tops of the cups. You get a peek of lace under plunging necklines, yet the cups sit smooth under your favorite tees.
Here's what goes into the lace itself:
- Over 50% recycled content: All Day Lace is 51% recycled nylon, 42% nylon, and 7% spandex.
- Tagless labels: There's nothing at the back to scratch or itch.
- Rose Lace blend: The unlined demi uses 86.2% nylon and 13.8% spandex.

Lace T-Shirt Bras
The All Day Lace T-Shirt Bra pairs smooth, lined cups with lace detailing, so it stays invisible under fitted tops. If you want more coverage than a plunge, start here.
Lace Push-Up Bras
The All Day Lace Push-Up Bra adds lift with lined cups and an underwire base. It's a lace push-up bra soft enough for all-day wear.
Wireless Lace Bras and Bralettes
The All Day Lace Wireless Bra gives you a wireless lace bra with no underwire pressing on your ribs. The All Day Lace Racerback Bralette is a lace bralette with straps that meet in the center of your back.
Unlined Lace Bras
The Rose Lace Unlined Demi Bra is an unlined lace bra with no foam, so you get a natural shape and a sheer finish without added bulk. The All Day Lace Unlined Bodysuit offers the same unlined look in one piece.
Should You Choose a Wired or Wireless Lace Bra?
Choose a wired lace bra if you want lift and shaping, and a wireless one if easy, all-day comfort comes first.
Here's how to decide:
- Pick underwire for lift: The Uplift Plunge and Push-Up shape and lift, which suits low necklines.
- Pick underwire for a smooth line: The T-Shirt Bra's lined cups keep a polished shape under knits.
- Pick wireless for long days: The Wireless Bra skips the wire for hours at your desk.
- Pick a bralette for a relaxed look: The Racerback Bralette works for lounging or layering under loose tops.
What Bra Should You Wear Under a Lace Top?
The best bras for lace tops either blend in under the lace or look pretty enough to show.
Match the bra to the top:
- Sheer or fitted lace tops: The T-Shirt Bra in a neutral like taupe keeps lines smooth under the lace.
- Low-cut lace tops: The Uplift Plunge's low center sits below deep V-necks.
- Racerback or lace back tops: The Racerback Bralette keeps straps centered at your shoulders.
- Black lace tops: A black lace bra under black lace keeps the look tonal.

How Should a Lace Bra Fit?
A lace bra should fully encase your breasts, sit flat against your ribs, and let you move freely. Use this checklist when you try yours on.
- Cups fully encase you: There's no spillage over the top and no gaps at the edges.
- Underwire sits flush: On wired styles, the wire lies flat against your ribs.
- Band fits snugly: It stays level around your rib cage without riding up.
- Straps feel comfortable: They rest on your shoulders without digging in or slipping.
- You move freely: The bra stays in place when you raise your arms or bend.

Can You Mix and Match a Lace Bra and Underwear Set?
Yes, you can buy a matching lace bra and underwear set or mix pieces to build your own.
Here's what you can pair:
- Four ready-made sets: The Uplift Plunge or T-Shirt Bra, each with a bikini or cheeky.
- Three underwear cuts: Matching lace comes in bikini, cheeky, and thong, so you can change coverage by outfit.
- Separate sizing: Buying pieces individually lets you size each one separately.
How Do You Find the Best Lace Bra for You?
The best lace bra for you matches your size, your outfits, and the support you want. You might want a full coverage lace bra for work, extra lift for evenings, or a wire-free style for weekends. Keep multiple bras for different occasions, because why limit yourself to just one?
