Simply Fab: Maidenform Breakthrough Backless Bra

I've seen a lot of bras in my lifetime, but none like this Maidenform Breakthrough Backless Bra ($25).

A lot of bras claim to be backless, but this first-ever design is a completely backless bra. So your first question is, "How does it stay put?" Well, there's silicone on the wire channeling to prevent slippage. The seamless foam cups provide a natural shape, so this is probably not a good option for those who seek major cleavage. This bra will put an end to the issues we face when wearing an open-back dress . . . finally!

On a side note, doesn't the model look like actress Teri Hatcher?

It may be the perfect moment to spend a little extra time on those back exercises. We love the surprise sexiness of a backless dress, as evidenced by Hilary Rhoda's gorgeous white dress. Backless dresses work best on smaller-busted women, as it's hard to find the right bra, although you can try a backless bra ($32), which uses adhesives to stay in place. We found some easy backless dresses to shop right now: just click on our slideshow to see.
