Because sometimes your trusty ol' T-shirt bra isn't gonna cut it under a slip dress for a special event.

You should be wearing that fun going-out top, even if "going out" right now means going over to your pal's apartment for at-home margs. But you can't wear a "normal" bra with said shirt, so you skip it for what feels like the millionth time. No more! Life is short, wear the fun things! We've rounded up all sorts of fashion solutions like no-show underwear you can don underneath yoga leggings or slip dresses, super thin (and therefore comfy) boob tape, jelly bras on Amazon, and so much more. 

Promising review: "So I decided to put these to the ultimate test for 4th of July underneath my white, semi-sheer swimsuit. I wore them out in the Florida heat in the ocean all day, and they did not budge or peel off. I thought for sure these would take skin off by the time I got home because I just couldn't believe they stayed on the entire day (humidity is real). I was able to remove them with ease. I washed them with warm water and soap and let them dry, and the next day, they were super sticky, like they were brand new out of the package again. Buying these forever." —Marisa

Promising review: "These are great. They wash well, they are very soft, and so thin you can't even see them if you have a tight dress or skirt on. No issues with shrinking. I love them." —jill ann krajewskidolores

Promising review: "FINALLY, COMFY PANTIES! As a 30-year-old woman, I’ve been on the search for comfy underwear and I finally found them. They’re soft and have the perfect amount of stretch." —Amazon Customer

"So freaking comfy. I need my undies to cradle under my butt cheeks the way a loving mother tenderly cradles her newborn’s face. I was worried these would creep up the cheeks into wedgie territory, but no. Blissful cheek hugging all day long. Can’t feel them even if I tried. No weird pinching or odd areas. Perfect chef’s kiss. I typically wear Aerie boy brief–style undies — these are a close match in fit and comfort, and equivocal in size." —Ali Morey

Promising review: "Obsessed! Finally got the TikTok body suit! I’m obsessed; it fits like a glove but isn’t cutting off my ability to breathe or stuff my face with food. The fabric is so comfortable! BUY IT!" —Kenley

Busties is a small biz. It even includes a test patch, so you can make sure the tape doesn't irritate your skin before wearing it. The tape is designed with a strong hold, so removal will absolutely require saturating the tape in oil before slowly and gently peeling it off!

Promising review: "This stuff is amazing. I bought this gorgeous backless wedding dress with a plunging neckline and didn't think about how to make sure my boobs were covered and secure. The fabric was also pretty sheer. I took the dress to a seamstress who sewed pads in and did an awful job. The pads looked lumpy, they were too far down, and one was an inch lower than the other. In a panic with only a week before the wedding, I took to Amazon and landed on this tape. Y'all... This stuff is awesome. I applied it with no practice literally five minutes before my ceremony. Even with no idea of how to apply or what I was doing, I managed to secure my boobs AND they looked amazing. I'm a D cup and didn't expect much lift, but there was lift, coverage, and just enough cleavage. It stayed on during 90 degree weather and was easily removed after a quick soak in the bathtub and a little coconut oil. I will definitely use this stuff again. I feel like this tape has opened up new wardrobe possibilities for me. If you're on the fence, just get it. Saved my wedding." —MelBee

I've owned these and can indeed verify that they're comfy!

Promising review: "Best thong panties!! I'm buying more. Comfy, wash well, perfect fit." —Beth

Promising review: "LOVE this bra so much! It is very, very soft, and the padding feels very natural. Bonus — it comes with a band extender, so if you're between sizes, I would recommend sizing down for the band, as you can use the extender if needed. The deep-V means it will work under lower-cut tops — which is what I was specifically looking for. I will definitely be buying more of this bra in other colors." —G.H. Cangahuala

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes XS–3X, including plus sizes, and 20 colors).

Promising review: "As a petite woman with a larger bust, well-fitted and comfortable bras are hard to come by. This one is so comfortable and cute and I really like the way the clasps are sort of magnetic. It makes it easier to find the right hook while uncomfortably reaching your arms completely behind your back, lol." —Amber Way

Get it from Amazon for $18.97+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 11 colors).

Promising review: "Bought these for my pregnancy based on a tip from a recently pregnant friend. Total game changer. Only had to buy a new size bra once, and then used these for the rest of my pregnancy, as my cup size didn't change anymore, but omg my ribcage just kept on expanding and expanding to accommodate the baby. IMO, these make wearing a regular bra possible during those body-changing portions of pregnancy, saving me money in the long run. Additionally, they work as expected...they clip onto the original spacers easily, they match up with the original hooks really well, and they are very comfortable and easy to use. Best $6 I've ever spent on Amazon. Buy them, you won't regret it." —K

Psst, this bra also comes with nipple covers.

Promising review: "Seriously, having large (DDD) boobs can really put a damper on trying to wear cute shirts in the summer. Some shirts you can’t wear a bra with, and going braless is 100% not an option, so I heavily rely on sticky bras. I definitely prefer the silicone ones over the cloth ones, and this bra just reinforces that opinion. It sticks so well and is completely invisible, even under the clingiest shirts I own. Another huge bonus is the nipple covers! I have used many different types over the years and have found that the silicone ones can sometimes look puffy under certain shirts, but these covers are thin and (again) cannot be seen under clingy clothes at all. They come in handy if you know you will be outside and run the risk of sweating off your bra since the nipple covers do not have that issue." —Sarah F.

Promising review: "Advid fan on Thinx period panties but not anymore. After seeing the price for how many pairs of period undies I was getting I decided to purchase because indidnt wanna have to wait on my one pair i had to be washed etc. I still wear a tampon, but on heavy days it's nice to know I won't be running to the bathroom every hour worrying about leaks.

I will not go back to Thinx undies ever. After months of my using these, they still look like I just got them, never leaked thru, no sticky or stinky feeling, They are thinner, more airy feeling fabric, soft and are more discrete feeling in the "pad area". I would buy these again and again, buy they have held up great so I don't really need to, so that's why I'm telling you to BUY THEM." —Chantelle

Bandelettes is a small biz specializing in anti-chub products. 

Promising review: "I wore these with a short dress while it was 90°. They worked great at preventing thought chafing. They also looked super cute under a short dress. They’re a little too long for my taste, like 2 inches too long. So I scrunched them up so only a little bit peeked out under the dress. These are a thick lace but still transparent, so I wore undies with them, but they have a cotton crotch, so it’s not necessary. I am usually a size 12, got a large, and they fit well." —Jill

Get them from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes S–3X and XL Plus–3XL Plus, and three colors).

Promising review: "Wow!!!!! I have been looking for something like this forever. First, it’s very comfortable. Most times when wearing other shapers, I end up having to take them off!!!! Not this one. Buy it, you won’t regret it." —Butterfly Beauty

Promising review (from a pregnant reviewer): "Worth the money 100% and if you get it on sale, even better!! I love the Momcozy brand. Their quality is always amazing. I have this now in three colors, and they are all beautiful. They are comfortable like a sports bra while also keeping my girls stable. I may have to size up after milk comes in, but I will wear these for a lifetime!" —Lindsay

Some reviewers like it for workouts, breast augmentation, breast reduction, shoulder surgery, and other procedures.

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $7.16+ (available in sizes 5–13 and 19 combinations/larger packs).

Promising review: "I was surprised, I give them a 10/10. I needed something comfortable and discreet to wear with low‑cut tops, and they work even better than I expected. They come with extra accessories, stick on super well, and give a very natural lift. They’re skin‑friendly, didn’t irritate me at all, and they saved several of my outfits. What I love most is that they’re reusable.” 💖🫶🏻" —Dayanara

Huha is a woman-owned small biz that makes thoughtful underwear made with natural materials.

Promising review: "These are the most comfortable underwear that I own! Even though the briefs are granny panties I guess by definition, I like the cut of them so much. I have a short torso and hip dips and the briefs are cut pretty much perfectly where they cover but feel close to the skin and don't get baggy or dank even when I wore them a few days in a row while sweating bullets with fever. The anti-bacterial quality of these works! I can't recommend these enough. Absolutely worth every penny." —Miki Foster

Get it from Huha for $18.20 (available in sizes XXS–3XL and eight core colors).

If you're between sizes, Spanx recommends sizing up. They're designed with bonded panels for firm shaping and a double-gusset opening at the bottom so bathroom trips won't be a problem. 

Promising review: "I have a pair from at least 10 years ago that were okay but I’m so glad I finally upgraded. This time I trusted what they say which is to buy your real size. (I always thought that if I bought a smaller size they’d hold me in more. It wasn’t true so they were always uncomfortable and rolled terribly.) So with the right size and their new design I absolutely love them. No dent lines on my legs, stayed up the whole time, really held me in well, and as comfortable as shapewear can be." —Jennifer D.

Get it from Spanx for $78 (available in sizes XS–3XL, in regular and petite, and four colors).

Get it from Lane Bryant for $74.95 (available in sizes 14–36 and two colors). 

Promising review: "As woman get older, their buttocks tend to fall... these literally pull up your back area AND you don’t see any seams anywhere!!! My biggest issue has always been that you see a seam on the legs under tight pants... these, nothing. I just bought two more. These are the GREATEST underpants I’ve ever bought! I guarantee you will love them. Ladies over 60… these are totally undetectable and the back of your buttocks look [AMAZING]!!!!" —Lexi

Get it from Leonisa for $65 (available in sizes S–XL and in two colors)

Promising reviews: "I love this faja. For me, it's perfect! Gives you curves, makes your butt pop! Shapes you nicely. It didn’t fit me super tight, which I love because then my rolls would show if I wore a crop top or something lol. It feels like a second skin, super smooth and comfortable! This is the best thing I’ve bought on Amazon so far!! 110% recommend!!!! GET IT SIS." —Anna

"I absolutely love this shaper. It’s so comfortable. It doesn’t squeeze at the thighs like most shapers do. It offers a subtle natural lift for your butt, yet it’s stretchy so that you can move around comfortably. You can wear it with anything, and it’ll be seamless. Doesn’t roll up either, and the elastic part that allows it not to roll up doesn’t break me out as it sticks to the skin." —Jejo

Get it from Amazon for $37.98 (available in sizes XS–3XL, four colors, and with or without zipper).

Promising review: "It really works! No more under-boob sweat. It keeps me cool all day and is extremely comfortable. I bought the black and the tan one. Highly recommend!" —Rosa M. 

Get it from Thirdlove for $72 (available in sizes XS–3X and three colors).

Promising review: "This shapewear is so cool and comfortable, I forgot I had it on. It boosted my butt a little and gave me confidence I did not know I had. I was walking throughout the office like I was the cutest thing walking because that is how I felt. If you are looking to feel like me. I suggest you purchase this now. Comfortable fit, and it stays in place all day." —First lady

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two colors and sizes S–3XL).

Promising review: "This shapewear slip fits well and provides great support. The stretch is amazing and helps create curves where necessary. It flattens the tummy, but does not inhibit breathing. The seams are strong and durable. The overall quality is fantastic! I wore mine all day, and it was very comfortable and did not roll up at the bottom. Make sure to review the sizing chart and order accordingly. I will be ordering more in other colors." —Dawn T Conway

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in S–4XL and four colors; also available in two other styles).

Note: Reviewers say this shapewear is *very* snug, so if you want something a bit more breathable, consider sizing up.

Promising reviews: "I really like this piece because I can wear it in so many ways. One day I threw on a sheer dress over this black slip and it looked great. Another day I threw on a sheer shirt over this slip dress, which made it look like I was wearing a skirt. I do wear it as a slip under my dresses. This piece is definitely worth the price." —Shannakulei

"So I read the reviews and went up a size because I don’t like [when the fit is] too tight where you can’t breathe. I regularly wear a 2X, I got the 3X and it fits perfectly! I’m an hourglass shape and this is actually very very very comfortable! I wanted it for some of my more sheer dresses to use as a slip and it works perfectly!" —SMM76

They fit great, they don't ride up and before you say anything I wear ready to wear size 18 and have a curvy bottom and they really do stay put. And they keep me cool. I now own 12 pairs and will continue to purchase them." —Cruise Girl

Get them from Duluth Trading for $9.98+ (originally $20.50; available in sizes XS–XL and 19 designs)

Promising review: "Ok, so first off, I'm not going to post a picture of me using the product because it's completely see-through, but that's what's so cool about it. It's reusable, doesn't hurt to peel off, yet is very sticky! It definitely lifts, I'm just not sure for how long. I will use these in the future. I like that it's almost invisible but works like a bra. Definitely good for low-back dresses." —Deanna S.
