I used to tell myself a lie while shopping online, which went like this: “I can’t buy that—what bra would I wear with it?” “That” refers to skin-bearing dresses with keyhole backs and cutout designs, as well as sheer tops and halters, all of which share one feature: they’re complicated. I thought so until I learned about nipple covers.
Adhesive bra alternatives make it easier to wear fun (but tricky) tops and dresses because they are invisible while still providing adequate coverage. “Because the nipple cover has no back band, it can only be seen in the front, so it is perfect for disappearing under backless styles, giving you coverage but not getting in the way of your outfit,” says Sapna Palep, CEO of luxury lingerie store Journelle.
