Nothing ruins an outfit like a rogue bra strap.
Sometimes we just want to live our red carpet fantasy, styling a dangerously sexy low-back dress à la Hailey Bieber at the 2019 Met Gala or Cate Blanchett at the 2000s Academy Awards. But not all of us can go braless, or want to, which is why a versatile low-back bra is a lingerie essential.
