![]() I’ll also note that Natori takes the title of “most mentioned” out of the bra brands I heard about from our panelists. And what makes the Feathers different from many T-shirt styles is the dramatic plunge at the center - yet the molded mesh ensured nothing could pop out. Although you can see the actual cups - as opposed to having them hidden under a layer of lining - I found it to be uplifting, like my breasts were being gently held up. I understand all the love around the bra now. Since crowning it our best bra, I tried out the Feathers for myself when Natori sent it to me for review. Parsons fashion-marketing student Tammy Lee is another devotee, describing how the bra makes “your boobs look natural while being held up.” It’s the top seller for shoppers with A through G cups at New York City’s Bra Tenders, according to store founder Lori Kaplan, who says the lightweight, seamless, deep-plunge bra works under T-shirts “but still has some feminine effects.” Writer Molly Lamoureux calls this bra “the unicorn of undergarments” for its comfort and support. ![]() The Feathers took the gold in this guide because it fulfills everything we were looking for: It comes in a range of sizes features lightly lined, contoured cups and has straps that become wider as you move up into larger sizes for more support. The cult favorite turned classic Natori Feathers has been a Nordstrom Anniversary Sale best seller with Strategist readers for years. Sizes: 30A–38DD | Underwire: Wired | Cup style and coverage: T-shirt-style cups with a light lining and molded mesh To simplify the process, I asked professional undergarment fitters, lingerie-store owners, and those who have tried tons of styles about their most beloved bras (and I’ve included a couple of my own favorites, too). Since no two boobs are alike (which is why you also need straps that adjust accordingly without digging into your shoulders) and considering all of the above, it’s easy to see why bra shopping can be so challenging. I previously theorized (in our small-bust-specific bra guide) that the best bra is one you don’t have to think about, and the longer I’ve been on the bra beat, the more I’ve come to believe that’s true. It should separate and support your breasts without feeling unnatural or uncomfortable. It has to disappear under your clothing while not cutting into your chest from any angle. The bra gets a bad rap because it can be hard to find one that fits, but it’s doing a lot. You can bet that when it comes to replace anything in our drawers that is worn out, I’ll be heading to ARQ again.As our resident underwear expert - I have thought about granny panties much more than anyone should - I’ve come to realize there’s no supporting player quite like the bra. ![]() I also purchased some tanks and undies for my mini me and can report that they are both mama- and kid-approved. But I won’t do that-partially because they are currently sold out of my size in black and also because that’s completely irresponsible. Now, I want to replace everything in my drawer with these. The high-rise undies and wide-strap bra are equally impressive. Don’t worry, it’s been washed and is ready for its’ next wear. The crop bralette was the first piece I put on and I wore it all day, slept in it and wore it for most of the next day… and again the following. Now I wish I hadn’t waited quite so long. The inclusivity is appreciated and respected.īut it wasn’t until they launched them in black that I finally made a purchase and got them on my own body. ![]() Most of all, I’ve admired the brand’s dedication to sustainability and also to showing the world that they can be worn by people of all ages, shapes and sizes. ![]() ARQ has been on my radar for a bit, at first for their kid offerings (for my daughter) and again when they launched adult versions of their beloved base layers. My criteria is fairly simple: comfortable, sustainable, affordable. I’ve settled on some that are good but not great and never quite perfect. I’ve been searching for the perfect base layers for years now. ![]()
