Shop Lace Bras
Lace does not have to mean a pretty bra that gives up on support. The lace styles here are built on properly engineered cups, so the delicate look sits over a structure that lifts, shapes and holds a fuller bust just as a smooth bra would. The result feels feminine and luxurious without you having to choose between looking good and being properly supported.
Lace is also one of the most misunderstood fabrics in lingerie. Many women assume lace will feel scratchy or show through clothing, but modern lace technology has come a long way. Soft stretch laces, flat-lay lace designs, and lace-over-mesh constructions can feel remarkably smooth against the skin while remaining discreet under clothing. In many cases, a lace bra is just as comfortable and wearable for everyday use as a smooth fabric style.
A little stretch through the top of the cup is also more forgiving across the bust, helping accommodate the natural size difference most women have between their breasts and reducing the gaping that firmer fabrics can sometimes show. You will find lace across full cup, plunge, balconette and wire-free shapes, all designed to combine beauty with genuine support.
Why Shop Lace Bras at DeBra's
For over 25 years we have fitted Australian women across the full A to LL cup range, and we choose our lace bras for support first and beauty second, never the other way around. We stock the European names known for fuller-bust lace, including Marie Jo, PrimaDonna and Fantasie, with some styles using laces sourced from around the world for a genuinely luxurious feel against the skin.
Because lace can stretch and soften with wear, getting the band and cup right from the start matters, so every order is backed by free fittings in store, by phone or over Zoom. If you are unsure of your size or shopping our plus size bras, a quick fitting points you to the lace styles that hold best at your cup size. Free shipping is included Australia-wide on orders over $150.
Beautiful Lace, Proper Support
A supportive lace bra works the same way any good bra does, with the support coming from the band, the cup construction and the underwire if there is one, not from the lace itself. The lace is the overlay; underneath sits the engineering that does the lifting, which is why a well-made lace bra holds a fuller bust as securely as a smooth one.
One of the reasons lace remains so popular is its versatility. Some customers love lace as an everyday option because it feels feminine and beautiful without sacrificing support, while others reserve their more decorative styles for special occasions.
- Everyday lace styles soft enough to wear under clothing day after day; pair them with matching lace underwear for a complete set.
- Plunge and balconette lace for lower necklines and a little glamour.
- Occasion and party pieces for when you want something special; see our lingerie range for more.
Finding Your Lace Bra Fit
Fit works just as it does in any bra: the band firm and level, the underwire flat against the body, and the cups holding the bust with no gaping or overspill. Because stretch lace is forgiving, it can be tempting to size up, but the band should still feel snug, so it is worth checking before you settle on a size.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are lace bras as supportive as other bras?
Yes, when the lace sits over an engineered cup. Support comes from the band, cup construction and the underwire, not from the lace, so a well-made lace bra holds a fuller bust as securely as a smooth-fabric one. Look for a structured cup base under the lace rather than lace alone.
Are lace bras good for a fuller bust?
They are. Stretch lace is forgiving across the top of the cup, so it accommodates a slight size difference between the breasts and reduces gaping, as long as the cup underneath is properly constructed. That combination of give and structure is what makes lace work at larger cup sizes.
Do lace bras come in larger cup sizes?
Yes. Our lace range runs in true cup sizing through to LL across everyday, full cup, plunge, balconette and wire-free styles. A fitting will point you to the ones that hold and flatter best at your size.
Can you wear lace bras every day?
Absolutely. Modern stretch laces are soft and comfortable enough for daily wear, so you will find practical everyday lace alongside prettier occasion pieces. Many women wear supportive lace bras every day, enjoying the combination of comfort, support, and beautiful design.
