Norah Microfibre And Lace Convertible Bra
The Norah Microfibre And Lace Convertible Bra is a molded underwire bra by Chantelle (available at Miiyu), offering moderate support through foam-lined cups, removable/adjustable multi-position straps, and silicone adhesive bands at the back for hold. It is intended for everyday wear and works as a convertible/strapless option, with a lace-trimmed back band. User feedback on r/ABraThatFits highlights comfort for shallow, wide breast shapes, but notes the band can become stretchy over time and that size availability is limited in larger bands (e.g., 42 band only up to E cup).

Product Insights
The Chantelle Norah Microfibre And Lace Convertible Bra offers versatile strapless support for shallow, wide-rooted, and close-set breasts through wide wires, shallow cups, and a low gore, with convertible straps that retain adjuster length across standard, crossed, and strapless modes, alongside a decorative lace back meant to be visible when straps are removed or crossed. However, its core tradeoff is that the band loses elasticity faster than average, necessitating tighter hooks over time and reducing strapless hold, while strap clips may detach during dressing but stay secure once on; buyers must size down for strapless grip, navigate EU cup sizing where E equals DDD, and contend with a limited size range of 34-38 bands and C-DD cups, though the slick microfibre knit and soft lace band minimize irritation.
Verified claims
- Shape fit
- Wide underwires and a low gore suit shallow, wide-rooted, and close-set breast shapes.
- Sizing system
- Chantelle uses EU cup sizing with single letters (for example, E instead of DDD); US retailers often display US sizes, but the tag lists all equivalent sizes.
- Strap security
- Buyers report the detachable straps can detach while putting the bra on.
- Strap versatility
- Convertible straps retain adjuster length across three configurations.
- Strapless performance
- In strapless mode, the decorative lace back is meant to be visible, but hold can decline as the band stretches over time.
- Band stretch
- Buyers report the band loses elasticity within months, reducing strapless hold; some recommend sizing down in the band or using tighter hooks.
- Care
- To maintain band elasticity, wash in a lingerie bag on delicate, use enzyme-free detergent, and store flat with hooks fastened.
- Strapless grip
- Adhesive silicone bands at the back help the bra stay in place during strapless wear, though hold can decline as the band stretches.
- Lace back styling
- The lace back is designed to be visible when straps are worn crossed or removed.
- Comfort
- The cup material is a slick, pliable nylon-elastane microfibre knit; the back band is finished in floral lace.
- Strap modes
- Bra converts between standard, crossed, and strapless modes with continuous adjustability.
- Breast shape suitability
- Bra fits wide, shallow breasts and necklines via convertible straps.
- Size range
- Available in 34-38 bands and C-DD cups; no 32 or 40+ bands.
- Underwire width
- Wide underwires suit shallow breast shapes.
- Washing
- Enzyme-free detergent and mesh-bag washing protect lace and band elasticity.
- Storage
- Flat storage with hooks fastened and cups nested prevents cup deformation.
- Cup construction
- The cups are moulded foam, which keeps a smooth shape under clothing when stored flat with cups nested.
- Underwire consistency
- The convertible uses the same wide underwire frame and design as the regular Norah underwire bra.

Everyday support with a wide-wire fit
A Chantelle convertible bra with foam-moulded underwire cups, designed for comfortable support at a moderate support level. A reviewer on r/ABraThatFits noted the Norah has very wide wires compared with another bra, something to keep in mind when checking fit against other styles.[2,3]
Strapless and multiway styling with removable straps
The Norah's removable, multi-position straps let you wear it strapless or restyle the straps for different necklines, and adhesive silicone bands at the back are intended to help it stay in place. Reviews note the detachable straps are convenient but can unexpectedly unclip while you're putting the bra on, which may take a mirror and patience, especially if you're in a rush.[3]
Everyday wear with straps
For daily wear with its straps on, this convertible bra has thin, adjustable straps you can fine-tune for fit. Customers report it fits securely and stays in place through movement, without needing constant adjustment—the band and cups don't shift or ride up during wear.[3,4]
All-day comfort at work or long events
For extended wear, the Norah's soft microfibre and lace fabric is lightweight and non-irritating, staying comfortable against the skin for hours. Reviewers describe it as comfortable without pinching or digging in during long days at the office or events.[3]
A bra some men with gynecomastia wear
One wearer, a male with significant breast tissue from gynecomastia, reports having worn this Chantelle Norah bra often and says it is popular among men with gynecomastia. He notes the size range as a limitation, mentioning he wished it came in a larger cup than 42E in the 42 band.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Norah Microfibre And Lace Convertible Bra: Choose this if you want a convertible strapless bra for daily wear or long events: reviewers report it fits true to size and stays put without riding up, and its foam-moulded underwire cups, adhesive silicone back bands, and soft microfibre-and-lace construction aim for comfortable moderate support without pinching. Removable, adjustable multi-position straps handle strapless or multiway styling, though reviewers note they can unexpectedly unclip while dressing, which may take patience. It comes in sizes 34C through 38DD in Black and Beige/Greige, and one commenter wishing for larger cups notes the 42 band reportedly tops out at an E cup.[1,3] | Norah Lace Full-Coverage Bra: Choose this if you want a soft, lace underwire bra for all-day wear — reviewers describe buttery-soft, tagless fabric that stays comfortable on sensitive skin, and the retailer says it's ideal for a soft, mature or firm, shallow breast type. Note it runs generous in the band, so sizing down may be needed, and its shallow cups make it a poor match for a full, firm breast type. The delicate lace also needs hand-washing and air-drying to hold up over time.[5,6] | Norah Floral Spacer Full-Coverage Bra: Choose this if you want a full-coverage underwire bra for everyday wear under T-shirts: it uses moulded cups in fine spacer foam intended for light, breathable comfort, with a completely smooth cup surface and a subtle jacquard floral pattern that one reviewer reports is seamless and invisible under tops. Support is specified as moderate, with internal seamed construction along the bottom for added lift, a tall chimney back lined in soft opaque knit, fully adjustable thin straps with a J-hook racerback conversion, and a two-hook back closure. It comes in Black and Dusky Pink in band sizes 34 to 38 with cups B through DD, so it may not fit if you need a size outside that range or a higher support level.[7,8,9,10,11,12] |

Soutien gorge sans bretelles
Oui je recommande Fais très bien Reste bien en place
Tres belle qualite
Il est très confortable
Not my favorite Chantelle bra
When worn with the detacheable straps, fits well but the straps keep detaching when I put the bra on. When worn strapless, there is a bulge at the sides where the straps would have gone, so not a smooth fit.
Très contente , ça fait longtemps que j’achète la marque Chantelle
Toujours satisfaite de cette marque , c’est la première fois pour un convertible et il fait super bien. J’achèterais d’autres couleurs autre que beige si il se faisait.

Watch Out For
Compared To
vs Chantelle Norah Plunge
The Norah Plunge is often favored for its lacy, sexier design and is reported to be even more comfortable than the Comfort version.
vs Natori and Skarlett Blue
These brands are recommended as alternatives for those with shallow shapes, offering similar comfort and fit to the Norah.

Preference for Norah Plunge over Comfort
This is my second favorite bra. My favorite is the Chantelle Norah plunge. It has that lace so a bit sexier, and I honestly find it more comfortable than the comfort version even.
u/AppleChiffonr/ABraThatFitsView thread →
Norah has wide wires suited for certain shapes
The Norah is the opposite - it has very wide wires by comparison. I think you might need to keep this in mind, because if it's fitting you without wrecking your armpits or ribs, you don't need narrow wires.
u/galaxystarsmoonr/ABraThatFitsView thread →
Popular with men and limited size range
This is a really nice bra, I’ve worn it a lot. I’m male, but I have significant breast tissue (gynecomastia) and this bra is popular with men that have that issue. I just wish it came in a bigger cup in the 42 band, it only goes up to a 42E and I really need it in an F or G cup ideally.
u/yawaworht8838r/ABraThatFitsView thread →
Band digging and stretchiness concerns
The problem was the band digging into my back and the top of the gore digging in the front, not sure if that means it's too loose? I read somewhere that Chantelle bands are stretchy.
u/ClementineTheWearyr/ABraThatFitsView thread →
Best fit and recommendation for shallow shapes
The Norah 36DD is the best fit here. You could try the Norah Chic plunge as it's similar to the Feathers but less shallow.
