I talk a lot about bras, mostly because it amazes me how hard it is to find good ones if you're anything above a C-cup.
I've written before about my preference for sports bras when it comes to everyday bras, and while I still love and religiously wear both CRZ Yoga and Boody, a new bra has entered the chat, offering support for my tired back and shoulders and giving me lift I didn't know I needed.
Welcome, the Nala Support Wirefree Bralette. It's part of the Aussie brand's newest range, Better Than Cotton.

Now, when you picture a bralette, you're probably not thinking of anything that suits a bigger chest. However, Nala has done a fantastic job on its wireless bras. I've been wearing the brand for a little while, but their Better Than Cotton (BTC) range was the catalyst that got me harping on about how fabulous they are.
I first bought the Support Wirefree Bralette last year in the Bio Butter fabric. I was travelling and needed something comfortable that I could wear under most outfits. While I really like this bra, and still wear it at least once a week, the Better Than Cotton range beats it by a hair.

While both bras are supportive and provide relief from digging wire, the Modal Bralette is softer and seems to fit me better personally. The Bio Butter bra took a while to wear in, and left some marks on my skin the first few times I wore it.
As someone who once paid $175 for a bra simply because it fit me, I would like my money back and three new Nala bras, thanks.
As for the BTC bra, I can do it up on the highest hooks and still feel no discomfort, which not only proved to me that I am wearing the right size (I was beginning to doubt myself), but that my struggle to find a bra that is comfortable, supportive, and not a sports bra might finally be over.
This is what I love most about the Modal Support Wirefree Bralette:
- Fabric: The material is ultra-soft. I can barely feel it on my skin, and since there's no underwire, it doesn't dig into my ribs either. As part of the , it's made from Modal, a fabric that comes from beech tree cellulose. So, not only is it comfortable, it's environmentally friendly, too.
- Design: The straps are wide enough to be supportive. Any girl with a bigger bust knows how useless a thin bra strap can be. The has wide, elastic, adjustable straps. While they'll probably be visible come summer, I don't even care. They're fantastic.
- Flattering: I've tried a lot of bras in my time (and hated most of them), and have often found that the comfortable ones offer no support. The triangular cut of this bralette is ideal for shaping, and I've never felt self-conscious about my bust when wearing it. I'm hoping this can continue into summer as I swap out my various layers for dresses and shirts, but I have complete faith.
- Colour choice: It comes in great colours. If you want to stick to basics, you can grab it in black or , but it's also available in pomegranate and bubblegum pink, which are ultra-cute.
- Price: And best of all? . Are you kidding me? As someone who once paid $175 for a bra simply because it fit me, I would like my money back and three new Nala bras, thanks.
