We all know the feeling; you buy a beautiful backless dress for a party, yet when you try it on your pesky bra keeps showing through and it won’t stay down or hide.

As trivial as this problem is, it’s still super annoying.

But you'll never have to worry about this situation again with this handy backless bra trick!

And as a bonus, you can find a use for a worn-out bra.  Two birds and all that…!

All you need is:

  • A bra
  • Scissors
  • Pins
  • Thread and needle

 

1.Take the bra and make the first cut between the shoulder straps and the back strap. Not on the cups, but on the other end.

2. Then cut the rest of the back strap away from the cup.

3. Do the exact same on the other side. But first cut off the shoulder straps.

4. And then the rest of the back. All that is left are the cups with bother shoulder straps!

5. Now, fix the loose bottoms of the shoulder straps to the cups with the pins. On both sides, of course.

6. And now all that's left: try it on! If the straps are too tight, you can sew them on a bit farther out. For that take the needle and thread. Just a few stitches are enough!

7. And this is the wonderful result with a dress! Not a sign of the bra!
