Bra Straps in Your Way of Becoming a Fashion Model?
Clear Bra Straps
- by Bob Pardue
This interesting article addresses some of the key issues regarding fashion and photography models.
A careful reading of this material could make a big give you some insight on the challenges of photographers model when wearing a strapless dress or top.
Clear bra straps may be the answer.
We’re all familiar with those fashion staples that are critical parts of our wardrobes when doing a fashion model photography shoot. That perfect pair of jeans. Those strappy shoes that are dressy enough for casual day in the office yet snazzy enough for a night on the town.
The little black dress, along with the jacket or sweater that goes over the little black dress to give an air of elegance in your fashion shoot.
Just as important in every photographer model's bag these days are clear bra straps.
You've probably been there before. You’re out shopping for your model photo shoot, and on a whim you grab that perfect strapless or backless dress or shirt or shirt that's going to give you an edge in your model portfolio pictures, only to find that you don’t have a bra in your model bag that doesn’t peek out of the outfit in all the wrong places.
You are frustrated because you really want to include this outfit in your fashion model shoot. Clear bra straps are an easy solution to this problem.
Of course, there are strapless bras available. But in many cases, clear bra straps provide a much better solution.
Many photographers models have a favorite bra that provides just the right amount of lift and support without creating unwanted lines and ridges that show through clothing material during a photo shoot. The problem is, the bra isn’t strapless, and no model wants bra straps hanging out in her pictures nor does she want to pay extra for taking them out through Photoshop.
These clear bra straps are the perfect
solution when you don’t want straps to show at all in
your photos. They can be used with most convertible bras. In
some cases, clear bra straps can even be used with strapless
bras to help keep them from shifting and sliding throughout
the course of a day.

So far, we've uncovered some interesting facts about fashion and photography models. You may decide that the following information about clear bra straps is even more interesting.
When shopping for bras, it is a good idea to choose those that will allow you to exchange the existing straps. That way, you can easily replace them with clear bra straps when the outfit in the photo you’ve got planned calls for bare skin.
The practical uses for them is obvious. But many models have turned them into a fashion statement in and of themselves.
Creative fashion models have added rhinestones, sequins, or beads to their clear bra straps and worn them as an accessory. Using clear bra straps in this fashion can add an element of flair and unique style to your outfit and to your model portfolio.
Replacing existing straps with different straps is very easy for bras with interchangeable straps. But if your favorite bra is not interchangeable, don’t despair. Models with a bit of sewing ability have often successfully replaced the straps on a favorite with clear bra straps.
Of course, this means that the change is permanent or that you’ll have to do more sewing if you wish to change back to the original straps.
Overall, straps that are see-through provide freedom and flexibility in planning your wardrobe for your fashion model shoot, both as a mechanism to hide all evidence of a bra and for some, as a decorated fashion statement in and of themselves.
This article's coverage of information for photographers models is as complete as it can be today. But you should always leave open the possibility that future research could uncover new facts.
Talk to your model photographer to see if the clear bra straps are an acceptable solution for your next photo session.
