ICYMI, we recently put out a poll in our Instagram Stories to find out what you feel the most strongly about when it comes to your bras. Having just discovered how to find the perfect fit thanks to the fairy bra-mothers over at Victoria’s Secret, we figured it’s high time we threw together a dream shopping list of bra styles based on what’s most important to you guys. The results are in, and let’s just say that you’re really, really into being comfortable above all else (good to know it’s not just us!). See how the community responded below, and check out the bra styles designed to give you exactly what you want.

Comfort vs. Style

When your high-waisted jeans are riding a little too high and your pumps are starting to sting your toes, you should be able to rely on a comfortable bra. We know this is important to you, seeing that nearly 82% of you voted for comfort (obvi—who wants to deal with a bra digging into their sides all day?). But there’s no need to sacrifice style for comfort when it comes to your lingerie—these are our top picks that check both boxes.

Natural Shape vs. Support

Real talk: Not all of us are looking for a bra that makes us look a whole cup size bigger than we actually are. In the spirit of celebrating our actual curves (or lack thereof), Victoria’s Secret has been answering the modern girl’s recent appeal for minimally lined bras, proving that there’s more to sexy lingerie than just enhanced cleavage. The bra cups now have a special memory fit lining that conforms to your shape, giving you a natural look. And fortunately there’s no need to choose shape over support—these “you do you” styles come in a wide range of sizes and include strap styles designed with a fuller bust in mind. Here are our top picks.

Fit vs. Versatility

Finally, the majority of you chose fit over versatility—and it wasn’t even close. Pro tip: Go into your local Victoria’s Secret store for a fitting (seriously, most of us are wearing the wrong size bra), and let the experts rock your world by fitting you in your correct cup and strap size. As for versatile styles, we predict you’re about to get a lot more interested in multi-way bras with removable straps—they’re perfect for those one-sleeve tops we’re currently obsessed with. Still, nothing is more versatile than a nude bra that works under anything (and a big thumbs up to Victoria’s Secret for creating styles in more than one “nude” shade). In short, you don't have to choose between a good fit and versatility, because the brand has the best-fitting bras for every shape. Shop our picks here.
