Low-back bras allow women to wear backless or low-back clothing without having to worry about visible bra straps.
The low-back bra has specially designed straps that cross lower on the back and then wrap around in front. This allows women to have the support and coverage of bra without ruining the effect of backless dress, bridal gown, or prom dress. Other low-back alternatives include adapters as well as backless bras.
The low-back bra is one of many specialty bras on the market intended to meet the needs of women who frequently or occasionally need to wear backless garments.
Many women only need to wear low-back bra occasionally because most backless garments are intended as special occasion or club wear. Some bra manufacturers address this by offering convertible bra with detachable straps that can be adjusted as necessary to accommodate all types of clothing styles. Some of these convertible bras are convertible to backless bra and even provide matte, transparent straps that are attached to the top of each cup and either worn traditionally or behind woman's neck so they are covered by her hair. This provides additional support when the bra is worn in the low-back style.

Other alternatives to low-back bra are low-back adapters, which can be attached to any bra to pull down the band strap and harness the bra in front. Another innovation is the backless bra, which consists of two cups that attach at the front. The inside sides of the cups are lined with an adhesive that sticks to the woman's skin and holds the bra in place. The backless bra provides coverage and some support while not requiring any straps at all, allowing woman to wear dresses with extremely low backs or tops that simply tie in back.
