Although heaven knows strapless bras have come a LONG way, even the less expensive ones.
I have never met a strapless bra I liked, and I have tried a bunch of different ones, even the all-one-piece deals that have the built-in slip (I thought that having more fabric to "hold onto" or anchor the garment would help, but they don't). My drawer is full of uselessness.

And yes, I have been fitted; three different places and they all gave me the same exact bra size (yay!). However, I usually have at least one of these problems:
- If the band tight enough to stay up, it's very constricting on my chest and affects my breathing (I have lung problems and my rib cage is a bit bigger).
- The cups are either too unstructured to feel "shaped" and the girls just kind of "rest" there, or too molded/thick under the dress and add bulk, making it just a smidgen too tight.
