The Reviews Are In: These Are the Best Full-Coverage Bras, Full Stop
In today's edition of top-reviewed pieces to add to your wardrobe collection, we're tackling an undergarment essential: a comfortable full-coverage bra. Just as we did with the best bandeau bras, we turned to the bountiful search results of the internet to find the 14 best styles to add to your undergarment drawer stat. From retailers like Nordstrom and Amazon to dedicated brands like Cuup and Skims, there's an option for every price and preference. Each one is backed by glowing reviews, the best of which we've relayed below. We must say we found some pretty amazing options
From a bra one customer says is "the most comfortable" she's ever owned to another that has over 2300 positive reviews, these are the best (and we do mean that in every sense of the word) full-coverage bras on the internet. Keep scrolling to find your pick.
What's the best way to determine if a bra is full coverage?
When you set out to determine whether a bra is full coverage, you should start by examining several features in its design. Full-coverage bras are defined as cups that fully support and cover the entirety of your chest. You'll want to look for a bra that will ensure your breasts are securely contained without spillage. I always suggest starting your search with a focus on supportive features like underwire, wider bands, and strategic seam placement, which are common in full-coverage bras.
What should you look for in a full-coverage bra when shopping online?
Shopping online for a full-coverage bra can be tricky since you don't have the opportunity to try things on. My first suggestion is to remember that most websites offer generous return policies, so if you're unsure of your size, order two and return the one that doesn't offer the fit that you're looking for. Customer reviews will be your friend in this journey, so I suggest shopping on a website like Nordstrom that offers that feature. Adjustable straps, wide bands, underwire, and other facets that create a supportive bra will be a must. In the product details, you might find verbiage that states whether the bra is "full coverage" or not, so look out for that. If you still are finding yourself stuck, Wacoal provides virtual bra consultations that are easy and quite accurate and allow you the comfort of measuring yourself.

"I've been on the hunt for a bra that didn't itch, poke, dig in, or squeak with full-coverage cups. This bra is the most comfortable bra I've ever owned. It has full coverage and soft fabric, and the wires don't dig. Try this bra. You won't regret it! I'm a 34C, and it's true to size." — Nordstrom reviewer

"I have been looking for a cross-back bra for a long time. They are either too small or large, or the fit is weird. This is the best so far. Ordering another one." — Amazon reviewer

"These bras are everything! They're so comfortable I forget I'm even wearing them. Absolutely no itchiness or digging. They're so soft and provide just the right amount of support and coverage. I love the logo detail on the straps and bought both the grey and black. These are always in my laundry rotation and by far my favorite bra! It fits true to size with plenty of stretch in the band. I wear 38DD for reference and never dry them in the dryer, and they hold up wonderfully." — Victoria's Secret reviewer

"It's very challenging to find a larger cup bra that looks good in a T-shirt and the center front doesn't hit me in the chin! This is a super comfortable bra, looks great with T-shirts, and because it has a plunge front, it fits well. It comes in a fantastic range of sizes. I would love more colors!" — Nordstrom reviewer

"I'm a big-busted gal, and I find that most bras are too full-coverage for my taste. This one fully covers, has fantastic support, and has great smoothing, but is just 'demi' enough so that I can show a little cleavage! I also prefer a little lift and separation rather than smooshing the girls together, and this does that perfectly. It makes my boobs look 10 years younger!" — Nordstrom reviewer

"I purchased five bras, and they are all going back but this one. I seem to have the hardest time finding a bra that fits just right. Well, this one is it! I ordered my usual size, and this bra is oh-so-comfy! I will be ordering more." — Amazon reviewer

"It doesn't say so in the description, but this is a minimizing bra. It truly redistributes the breast to give a smaller appearance. The last minimizer just pressed my breaststroke to the ground and made my back hurt, but not this one. The thick straps haven't twisted yet, offers back support, and it offers coverage that minimizes. I wore this all day and almost went to the gym in it." — Amazon reviewer
