Comfortable Lounging and Sleeping Bras You Can Wear All Night or Weekend
There are a number of reasons to want a comfy sleep or lounging bra. If you're pregnant you may feel sore and want extra support while you sleep. If you're nursing, a sleep bra can be useful to help keep leaks from getting all over your clothes. Or. you might want a leisure bra because you've had surgery and can't wear your usual bras until you heal.
Then there's monthly bloating and tenderness. Your regular bras ride up, the clasps won't close, and you're just plain miserable.
In all of those cases, you need some support, but comfort is your number one priority!
Or maybe, it's just because it's the weekend or the evening, and you want coverage and stability without the hassle of a full-fledged bra.
Note that wearing a bra at night while you sleep will not prevent sagging. Gravity is gravity.
If you want to stay cool and comfortable too, check the descriptions for cotton bras (including plus sizes).
