So, sleep bras are a thing—and they’re exactly what they sound like: bras that are comfy enough for sleeping/lounging/hanging around the house in and maybe even throwing on real quick to receive that pizza delivery. But if you want to get technical— "usually, a sleep bra is a pull-on or front-fastening bra without back fastenings," shares Sally Robinson, founder of U.K. lingerie retailer AmpleBosom (though there are snooze-worthy styles that do close in the back, so that's a matter of personal preference). Generally, Robinson suggests looking for features like "soft seamless cups, stretchy, breathable fabric often with a cotton content, non-adjustable straps and a comfortable under-band" when shopping for a sleep bra.

Basically, they’re the bras that are so comfortable, you either won’t mind wearing them nonstop or just simply forget you’re even wearing one at all (aka the best kind of bra). If you’re someone who has trouble sleeping comfortably without support or just simply want your bras to meet this cozy, second-skin standard, then you’ve come to the right place. We talked to Robinson and Kristyn Polin, an expert bra fitter and Bare Necessities customer service supervisor, to find out what we should really look for in a sleep bra. Plus, they're letting us in on their absolute faves!

Our top picks for the best sleep bras of 2024:


All the styles you’ll find below are buttery soft and sans wires, while keeping everything in place when you’re tossing and turning. And hey, they might even look good with your WFH ‘fit. So go ahead and scroll through this mini intimates department for 20 of the best sleep bras you’ll want to wear 24/7.

Pros

  • pull-on style
  • soooo soft!

Cons

  • unlined, partial coverage

This sleek pick regulates your body heat so you won’t be too hot or too cold while wearing it. It’s closure-free, so no metal hooks will be digging into your back. It’s also a great post-mastectomy bra, according to some reviews.

Meryl Front-Close Wire-Free Bra

Pros

  • padded straps won't dig in
  • u-back design stays in place

Cons

  • may give a uniboob look

Sick and tired of trying to reach the back clasp of your bra? Same. Meet your saving grace: this super-breathable bra that's so easy to get on and off.

Glowing Review: "Finally, a soft front fastening bra that is both comfortable and holds shape. Cotton cool and wide strap comfort. True to size. Back and sides are deep, wide. No back fat or rolling up. I've ordered two more."

Comfort Revolution EasyLite Seamless Wirefree Bra

Pros

  • comfy band-free design
  • silky smooth

Cons

  • wide straps are tricky to conceal

Moisture-wicking elements? Yes, please. "I love this style because its cooling fabric is one of the most buttery-soft materials I have ever worn that I hardly ever even realize I am wearing a bra," says Polin. "And on top of that, it’s an inexpensive style, so it can meet almost anyone’s budget!"

Glowing Review: "Absolutely love this bra. Straps are wider than average so might show under some sleeveless tops. No hooks, no wires, silky smooth and slips right on and off. Great color selection. I have replaced all my other bras with this one."

best full-coverage style

Soma Wireless Bralette

Wireless Bralette

Pros

  • super supportive
  • very opaque material

Cons

  • may stretch out

Introducing a baby-soft bra that feels like a second skin featuring thicker straps to keep the girls in place all day and night. Sign me up. Consider sizing up in this one, especially for a comfier (yet still supportive) fit, since the snug band runs small, per reviews.

Glowing Review: “Best decision I have made. I put off even trying one on for years, thinking it was not a bra I could wear everyday. It’s really comfortable, I forget I have a bra on! I don’t have sore breasts anymore later in the day. A big plus! I wish I would’ve tried it long before–no more hooks for me!”

Parfait Dalis Bralette

Dalis Bralette

Pros

  • inclusive sizing
  • comfy wide band
  • pretty lace trim

Cons

  • prominent underboob darts and seams

Fun fact: most sleep bras are tier-sized (think: S, M, L, XL, 2X, etc) instead of cup-sized, and "often times, this can be harder to fit if you don’t fit in the size ranges that are available for that style," Polin explains. "The Parfait Dalis Bralette is a great wire-free option that is cup-sized, and it's available in a wide size range," she says, so it's a great pick for larger busts. "The fabric is a very soft and stretchy microfiber, a wide under band provides support and comfort, and the lace detailing aids with breathability."

Smooth Seamless Comfort Bralette

Pros

  • sleek yet structured design
  • 3-hook closure for the perf fit

Cons

  • limited colors

A personal favorite of Polin's, this option features 4-way stretch microfiber and a back hook-and-eye closure, so it's v supportive yet comfy. "I love that the cups have inner slings to give the right amount of support for lounging and sleeping in, yet it still gives me enough confidence to wear while I am out running errands," Polin raves.

Glowing Review:
“I am a 42G. Yes, you read that right. This is the bralette that holds up to the standard and holds them up, hah. I am totally comfortable running errands in this, sleeping, cleaning the house.. you get the idea. It keeps them totally contained while keeping them UP. One thing about bralettes and being my cup size is that they never stay in, stay up, stay apart or they move around too much. This one is it for larger cups. So happy to have found this bralette.”

Modern Cotton Unlined Wireless Bralette

  • won't irritate sensitive skin

Cons

  • minimal stretch

The classic Calvin Klein logo will never go out of style, as this tried-and-true style with over 25K+ ratings and 4.5 stars proves. If you really want to take things to the next level, grab the matching undies too.

Glowing Review: “I am absolutely in love with this bra! I've owned the white and pink versions for years, wearing and washing them daily, and they still maintain their brand new look and feel. Recently, I purchased the black one, and I'm absolutely delighted that I did. The only minor difference is that unlike my other two bras, which have all the necessary information conveniently printed on the inside without any tags, this one does have a tag. However, it's not a big deal at all since you can simply cut it off if it bothers you. What I adore about this bra is that it caters to my super sensitive skin. In the past, I've suffered from heat rash when wearing other bras, but thanks to the breathable cotton fabric of this one, I've been completely rash-free since I started wearing it. I highly recommend this bra! It's durable, comfortable, and perfect for those with sensitive skin.”
