I absolutely ADORE bralettes. As a queer tomboy femme, don’t wear underwire. Like ever. It’s far too uncomfortable and restricting, but I also don’t want to wear sports bras 24/7. Bralettes are the best of both worlds, offering slight support while also being cute enough to make me feel sexy and confident. They are by far the bra that I grab most often! So here are 6 brands to shop for your perfect plus size bralette.
Torrid
I don’t love Torrid’s wire bras but their bralettes! They are so comfortable and cute and I’m due for another black lace bralette because mine is looking a little ragged, tbh. My top choice for a plus size bralette with support because they also go up to a 6X! Shop for a Torrid bralette HERE!
Cacique
Cacique, Lane Bryant’s lingerie offshoot, takes up the most room in my bra and undie drawer for sure! They have incredibly comfortable everyday underthings, but their bralettes are very cute and they have sales often. You can also stock up on some bralettes basics here!

Target
Target has surprisingly upped their plus size lingerie game! They offer bralettes up to size 4X and in a variety of styles and in an affordable price range, about $20 full price! Target is also a great place to snag low-impact sports bras in plus size too. Shop affordable plus size bralettes at Target HERE!
Rue 21
If you’re looking for trendy and budget-friendly, Rue 21 is a great place to shop up to a size 3X. They also have sales constantly! Rue 21 won’t give you the highest quality bralettes BUT if you, like me, enjoy showing off your bralette as part of your fit, then this is the place. Plus size crochet bralette? Check! Super cute and can pass as a crop top in a pinch! Shop trendy full figure bralettes at Rue 21 HERE!
Maurices
Maurices marries function with style with their bralette collection! Available up to a size 4X and in lots of basic colors and textures, Maurices is a great brand to shop if you’re just starting up your bralette collection. The best part? None are above $20! Shop affordable plus size lace bralettes at Maurices HERE!
Walmart
Anyone who isn’t perusing Walmart for plus size offerings is sleeping on a gold mine! Their lingerie brand is called Secret Treasures for a reason, I guess! They offer bralettes up to size 4X and at a wallet-friendly price, around $15. You can usually find plus size options in-store as well, which is rare in stores that aren’t specifically plus size. Shop comfortable plus size bralettes at Walmart HERE! I hope this guide helps you find a bralette that makes you feel comfortable, supported enough, and gender euphoric!
