I Found 28 Bras With Great Side Support—You're Welcome

Finding a properly fitting bra that provides the right amount of support can sometimes prove

to be a challenge. While we love a dainty bralette just as much as the next person, sometimes, we’re in need of a bra that provides a little more on the lifting and shaping front. Those with larger busts or wider-set breasts can especially benefit from styles equipped with extra side support, which are not only forward-shaping and lifting but also prevent overspill and keep any potential side-boob situations in check.

Not sure where to start? Typically, bras with any or all of the following features are great options: three- or four-part cups; side slings; and wider, higher-rising sidebands. Three- and four-part cups are designed with lifting seams (unlike a classic molded cup) and usually include a diagonal seam that directs breasts inward. Side slings are the extra piece of fabric at the outer edge of the cup and also work to push the girls forward. Extra-wide, higher-rising sidebands help keep everything nice and smooth in the underarm zone in addition to providing extra support all-around.
