During the summer months, most women break out their lightweight t-shirts, dresses and tops. However, not every bra looks great with your clothing options. You may choose a t-shirt bra for its cotton comfort for many of your outfits, but will they work under your summer tees? This is what you should know about matching summer tees with great bras.

Seamless Bra
T-shirts tend to lay against the skin, at least on your breasts. Therefore, bumps, lines and seams are often visible. This makes seamless bras perfect for summer tees. They cover your breasts well and hold you in place without the bumpy seams other bras have. These bras look especially great with fitted tees. They also come in a variety of styles, from plunge and demi-cup bras to full-coverage options.
Cotton T-Shirt Bra
T-shirt bras often fit like a second skin. While some have light padding, most do not. They let you move naturally and can be made of a variety of fabrics, including cotton or microfibers. Although some sports bras are made with cotton t-shirt fabric, you can also find contour, full-coverage and other styles, allowing you to find just the right bra type for that wide-necked, low-cut or v-neck tee. These bras are also made to be convertible, so the same bra can be worn under a variety of styles.
These bras also have smooth lines because they have either no or barely there seams. They are also simple bras and rarely have lace or embroidery on them, allowing them to nearly disappear under your tee. In this way, they are great for lightweight or thin t-shirts.
Unlined Bras
Unlined bras typically have a thin fabric lining and no foam. They are lightweight and breathable, increasing their comfort. In addition, your breasts look more natural in these types of bras because they mold to your breasts, revealing their shape. When you think of the best tshirt bra, you likely think of one that enhances your assets and reveals their beauty.
Unlined bras are also supportive. They are great for most breast sizes, especially large and plus-sized breasts, because they don’t have bulky padding. In addition, these bras have different coverages and styles, so they are perfect for any type or style of summer tee.
Wireless Bras
Wireless bras are great for summer tees because they don’t restrict your movement with harsh, stiff wires. Instead, they support your breasts with a soft, pressure-free cushion that lifts your breasts comfortably. These bras also don’t restrict your blood flow or lymph drainage as tighter, underwire bras can. This is especially important in the summer when you need cooler, less-restrictive undergarments.
Wireless bras are also great for sports or outdoor activities, for which you would traditionally wear tees. They are flexible and have more supportive options, such as cross-back straps. You can find a wide variety of styles, including strapless and convertible options, that will work with any style of summer t-shirt.
The key to finding the right bra for your summer tees is to make sure you understand bra cup sizes. Then, search for the style and type of bras that look best under your summer wardrobe.
