Why do we wear transparent straps?

We very often fall for a piece of clothing in a store window. You think they would go perfectly with the new denim pants you found last week. But then you start to doubt, do I have the right body for this little strapless top? No, for you it is impossible to wear this little top because you judge that you do not have the silhouette of the model who wore this top in the magazine you looked through yesterday. You start to get knots in your stomach until you simply give up on your crush. Have you never dared to wear a bustier topbecause according to you, your chest is not suitable for this type of top? You refuse to wear it without a bra because you know you need the support of a classic bra. You found a pretty dress with transparent sleeves. It's the perfect dress for your formal evening next month. You try it on and you realize that your bra, even flesh, is completely visible under the tulle, it is impossible to hide the straps. Not knowing what to do, you decided to give up this dress, for another straight one that was too classic. You have seen a very elegant bridesmaid dress with asymmetrical sleeves on the internet. This is the exact color you are looking for. But there the ordeal begins. How to wear it? With what lingerie? Have you tried bandeau bras but you are not convinced by their effectiveness in relation to your body type and you prefer to avoid adhesive bras out of fear and because they do not correspond to your current needs? In fact, you find yourself facing a dilemma. Have you ever experienced this type of situation? At Gilsa Paris, we believe that all women deserve to choose the products and outfits they want and would like to wear. Women must feel free but above all comfortable with their bodies and their environments. There are many lingerie solutions that allow women to feel comfortable with themselves and their femininity. Transparent suspenders are just one product among dozens of others that you can discover to help with your daily comfort.

When to wear transparent suspenders?

Some women may be skeptical about transparent suspenders. They can read many sometimes uncomplimentary articles on the subject and prefer to do without them without having tried them. But they ignore the extent of the possibilities that transparent straps can bring us. Indeed, the transparent straps offer you a range of possibilities to allow you to be free in your movements. Remove from your minds the images of transparent straps from the 1990s. Today, transparent straps are back in fashion to slip under your everyday and party outfits. But then, when do we have the option of wearing transparent braces? Are there any codes to follow to wear transparent suspenders and stay trendy? You must remember that you are free to act and that you are the sole judge of what to do or not to do in matters of fashion. Fashion trends are so volatile that one day a product can be trendy and the next day out of fashion. But also know that you just need to be patient because fashions change and, at some point, your favorite pieces will come back into fashion. The transparent straps can be worn every day. During the summer with a little beach dress or in winter under a long oversized sweater, these straps can slip anywhere under your clothes. Don't neglect comfort for style. The silicone material of this style of suspenders adapts to all seasons and moments of life. Not afraid to sweat with them, they will stay in place and will not risk slipping on your shoulders unlike classic bra straps. There is therefore no preferred season to choose transparent straps. The important thing above all is to feel good in your bra, whether in terms of comfort, well-being or support. Be sure to adjust your straps correctly using the adjustable adjustments to maximize your comfort when using them.

How to put on these essentials?

You have endless possibilities when it comes to using transparent suspenders. Indeed, transparent straps are above all removable straps. You will be able to attach them to bras with notches dedicated to this purpose. Some bras have been created to have the possibility of removing, changing or modifying the position of the straps. These are bras with removable straps. These bras can come in different shapes such as classic bras, bandeau bras, balcony bras with removable straps or multi-position bras like our Divine bra strong>. Each of these shapes have one thing in common, they have the possibility of removing and/or putting on straps. Inside the bra, you will be able to find some sort of notches. These pieces of fabric or elastic have been specially designed to accommodate bra straps. Each strap is designed on the same principle. They have a hook at each end to attach to one of the notches on the bra and a ruler at the strap to adjust the length of the strap.

What are the different positions of the strap essentials possible?

Just like every removable bra strap, you have several options for strap position to allow your bra to adapt to the garment you have chosen. You can first choose the classic position which corresponds to the two parallel straps on the shoulders. Choose the outer bra notches at the front of the cup for the first hook and toward the middle of the back for the second hook. Repeat the same action for the second strap.
This position is ideal for tops or dresses that are strapless, or that have a transparent part at shoulder level where classic colored straps would not give a harmonious look. The second position is the crossed back. Start putting on the straps at the front of the bra like the classic position. Once the straps are installed, hook the right strap to the back notch on the left, and the left one to the right. You will get a crossed back. This strap position is very practical for tops that have a crossed back, cross or racer back that prevents you from having parallel straps in the back. The transparent straps will be more invisible than classic straps because they have the ability to have a second skin effect. We can also distinguish two variants of this position, these are the crossed frontand the double crossed. Instead of crossing in the back, you have the option of crossing in front while keeping your back parallel. This allows you to adjust to the openwork tops in front. You can also cross front and back for more style. Do not hesitate to lengthen your straps to avoid tightening your shoulders too much and risking injury. Two last positions are still possible. First of all, the asymmetrical strap. Position one strap on one shoulder in a normal manner, and cross the second one as in a crossed back. This will allow you to wear a dress with one bare shoulder. The last position is the neck roll. Loosen one strap as much as possible and position it on the left of your chest. Then place the strap around your neck by hooking the second hook on the right of your chest, symmetrical to the first. So you will get a backless bra. If your staple is visible, we advise you to use staple covers like our product So Bow.

The essentials bra extenders 

The essential bra extenders can come in different sizes and shapes. From one to four hooks: So Maxi, it adapts to all bras for every situation. After pregnancy or weight gain, the bra extender is made for bras that have become too small and therefore allows you to wear them longer.

The ideal solution for keeping your favorite bras for longer

We all have a favorite bra, a bra that we love more than anything. It can be blue, black, white, pink, red, patterned, embroidered, lace, microfiber or other. He has this “je ne sais quoi” which makes you prefer it to the others. This bra is a bit like your refuge, your Proust madeleine. When you wake up in the morning, it's the one you choose when there's no choice.
