StrapTrap is a sew in bra strap holder, sometimes called a bra strap retainer, clip or concealer which was designed to prevent to age old problem of bra straps falling off the shoulder or peeking out from under clothes.

Slipping bra straps is a perennial problem the world over.  Some market research showed that 85% of women said a slipping bra strap was a problem and 90% thought it ruined the look of an outfit.

StrapTrap works attaching the lingerie strap to the garment. In this way the garment and straps stay aligned all day.

StrapTrap also prevents a garment falling off the shoulder, for example wide boat necks, and are especially useful for dance, theatrical and historical costumes.

About StrapTrap

I thought there must be something on the market designed to keep bra straps out of sight.
But scouring the internet only turned up the ribbon and safety pin solution, and that had been on the market for 70 years.

The unlikely inspiration for StrapTrap was electric cable conduit.
By the afternoon a prototype was made – and it worked.

Knowledge Dock UEL made working samples using a 3D printer.

The timing was great as the design had just been shortlisted for the Female Inventor of the Year Award.

Shortly afterwards the design was awarded a gold medal at the British Inventors’ Show.

Working closely with a local manufacturer, the design was refined.
StrapTrap is still manufactured by the same company in the UK.

Very soon professional dressmakers saw the benefits of using StrapTrap.

In 2014, the design was licensed to PRYM a large haberdashery company in Germany

An invaluable addition to your sewing box

They are a must-have for theatre wardrobe departments and are especially useful for dance and period costumes as well as vintage clothing. Also ideal for theatrical and historical costumiers.

StrapTraps are quick and easy to fit, washable, dry cleanable and reusable.

StrapTraps clever design accommodates most size of bra strap and is a haberdashery item used and trusted by bridal, couture and alterations businesses since 2004.

A brilliant and simple invention

Since discovering Strap Trap several years ago we have saved hours in sewing time. They are so easy to attach and even easier for my clients to use, keeping straps in place and making sure that necklines do not move. A brilliant and simple invention.

Strap Trap made life so much easier

I’ve been using awkward safety pins with ribbon attached and poppers for
 years, so when I came across Strap Trap it made life so much easier and
 works so much better! I literally jumped up and down with joy

The clips take seconds to attach but add so much value

I love using the strap traps in my bespoke garments and my collection pieces, both for Brides, mother of brides, evening and work wear. The clips take seconds to attach but add so much value
I have been a strap-trap fan since I came across them years ago, nearly all dresses leaves the workshop with strap-traps stitched in and lots of clients buy a pack to put in themselves in their other dresses afterwards!!

An annoying and reoccurring problem has disappeared

We used to sew ribbon and invisible press studs to our straps to hide the underwear which was bulky and sometimes impossible on narrow straps. Now with the introduction of this simple but ingenious method of securing straps daintily and invisibly inside our evening and bridal gowns, an annoying and reoccurring problem has disappeared.
