The Today Show (www.msnbc.msn.com) featured these five best bras selected by Charla Krupp (2006):

FIVE BEST BRAS

1. Best Enhancer

Victoria's Secret Angels Secret Embrace

Price: $42 to $44 (www.Victoriassecret.com)

The bra is a molded cup with an underwire that is totally seamless and tag-less. The secret is invisible gel padding.

2. Best Deep-V

Natori's Underneath Sheer Mesh Ultralight Convertible Contour

Price: $46 Nordstrom (www.nordstrom.com) or barenecessities.com

This bra lets you show 1-1/2 inches more cleavage than a regular bra. There is a clear piece of coated plastic between cups. Bra straps are convertible for a racer back or a halter back.

3. Best Minimizer

Olga Perfect Fit Seamless Lightly Lined Bra

Price: $29.50 (www.Kohls.com)

This bra is for sizes C to DDD, and reduces the size while shaping. Bra straps are wide and padded for extra support.

4. Best T-shirt Bra

Playtex Thank Goodness It Fits Santoni Lightly Lined Soft Cup Bra

Price: $16.99 (www.Onehanesplace.com)

This T-shirt bra comes in half sizes as well as Nearly A, B and C, which gives women more range in cup size. This bra has smooth, stretch foam cups.

Shopping tip: Seamless cups have less flexibility, so you almost always need to go up a size. So, if you're a B, try the NC (nearly C) size in this.

5. Best in Show

La Perla Collier Padded Demi

Price: $240 (www.laperla.com)

Gorgeous bra with a macrame embroidery necklace along the cups and straps. La Perla bras are made by their artisans in Bologna, Italy and hand-stitched with lace from France.
