Why the black bralette is a top drawer staple

Every underwear drawer has that one piece that you can count on. Our black bralette earns that spot because it’s the colour you never regret buying. This one hits different because it brings comfort and versatility in one go.

Here’s why you should have (at least) one:

  • Always look sharp. We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again. Black is classic. It’s sleek and easy to style. Put it on, get on with your day.
  • Pairs with literally everything. Layer it under an oversized jacket, wear it solo under a blazer, or keep it simple at home. Black works across all plans, no outfit change necessary.
  • Comfort that keeps up. Soft lace and smooth finishes. Fabric that lets you breathe and moves with you, without the pinching or digging.
  • Built to be worn on repeat. Black stays bold, without it losing its shade or shape. Regardless of how many times you throw it in the wash.

What makes our black bralettes a step above the rest?

A black bralette feels even better when it’s made right. Ours use soft lace that keeps up with your day with microfibre that lets you breathe. Comfort is a priority for us, which is why our finishes don’t rub or dig. The fit is locked in through every size, and the stitching and details are designed to hold up, no matter how many times you reach for it.

How to lock in the right size for your body

The right black bralette should feel like it’s part of you, without having to adjust through the day. To get there, you’ll need a quick measure-up before you check out.

Here’s how to get it right:

  1. Underbust - Wrap the tape around your ribcage, right under your bust. This sets the band fit so it stays in place without cutting in.
  2. Overbust - Measure across the fullest part of your chest. This is what stops the lace from puckering or digging.
  3. Match your measurements to the guide - Our range runs true to size, so once you’ve got your numbers, you’re sorted.

Looking after your go-to black bralette

You wear your black bralette on repeat, so it deserves care that keeps up. A few easy steps will help it stay as good as day one.

  • Keep it cool
    Cold water is always the move here. It helps lock in the colour and keeps the fabric feeling like new.
  • Protect your lace
    Throwing your bralette in loose is basically askign for stretched out straps and tangled hooks. Always use a mesh wash bag so it stays in one piece.
  • Hand wash when you can
    It’s the easiest way to keep the lace soft and the fit on point. If you’re using the machine, stick to the delicate cycle, always.
  • Lay it flat
    Hanging it up might seem harmless, but it can pull the shape over time. Dry it flat in the shade to help hold its form.
  • Rotate your lineup
    Give your bralette a break now and then so the fabric stays supportive. Good thing our range makes it easy to swap in a fresh one whenever you need.

How to wear the black bralette your way

A black bralette this good shouldn’t stay hidden. It’s the piece you’ll keep reaching for because it works under, over, and anywhere in between. Here’s how to make it part of your look without overthinking it:

  • Wear under a blazer - Leave a few buttons undone and let the lace peek through. It gives structure and just a hint of softness without losing edge.
  • Under a sheer shirt - The black lace sets the tone underneath and adds just enough texture without taking over the whole outfit.
  • Worn under a relaxed knit or v-neck jumper - Lace edging at the neckline adds detail without needing accessories.
  • Matched with lounge pants - Pair with your favourite lounge pants at home. Comfortable, but still well put together.
  • With your everyday basics - White tee, a good pair of pants, and black lace underneath. It’s that easy.
