Sizing is Off
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2019
For starters, this is a pretty bra. The fabric is shiny and the cups are comfortable. I liked how they were larger and gave complete containment and coverage.However, I'm returning it because of the short band. I ordered my normal size 38D and the band fits uncomfortably tight on the last hook. I refuse to wear an extension and shouldn't have to with a new bra. Also, the straps are way too thick and too short even after adjusting. I found them very uncomfortable.The sizing seems off by at least two sizes. It's unfortunate because it's an attractive bra with ample cups.
Lovely bra, but what a huge difference between 40C and 42C!

I ordered both sizes to see which fit better. The 40c had two hooks, narrow straps (which were horrible to adjust) and just was uncomfortable. The 42C however had a much wider band, 3 hooks, padded straps that seem to stay put pretty well, and was much more comfortable. I just received both bras and am returning the 40c to exchange for another 42C. BUT, now the price has DOUBLED! We should be able to exchange an item that doesn't fit for the same price we paid.
Incredible value

This bra is very well-made for the price. I am very pleased with the fit- smooth, fit fully in the cups, the strap is not riding up in the back, no bulging around the back strap or at the armpits, and the shoulder straps do not slip down or cut into the shoulders. The shoulder straps even have a little padding which is a plus.
Strange fit in the band

I really liked the full coverage bra from this brand, so when I saw this bra on sale I thought I'd give it a try. However, the band on this bra fits very strangely. Even when the band was too loose it was digging into my sides. This was probably due in part to the fact that the band didn't have much stretch to it. The real deal-killer though was that the portion of the band between the cups did not lay flush with my body - it angled in. The angling was not only uncomfortable since that portion of the band pointed into my chest bone, but it made it feel like the bra was pulling upward. (Pulling upward in an about-to-come-off way, not a "lifting" kind of way.) I would recommend the full coverage bra, but not this one.
Fits comfortably, sized perfectly and appears well made.

Really impressed with these. Got three of them and all fit comfortably and seem well made. The straps are slightly padded and are not the normal elastic type ones, but are actual fabric so are much more comfortable. The cups are also lightly padded and are well formed which prevents the oh so attractive lumpy or strangely pointy look you get from other bras. Not a huge fan of underwire but without it, to get any kind of support requires a bra the size of a small country or you go down the sports bra path and sacrifice lift and separation for a squished uniboob. And, for someone in her fifties, this is not a good look at all. So, yea for me! I finally found some bras in my size that fit, feel comfortable, look decent and were reasonably priced. Have only washed them by hand once, so not sure how well they'll hold up yet and the wire is a smidge annoying, but no more so than any other underwire I have ever worn in my lifetime. As to the sizing, I ordered my actual size (38B) and it was spot on, so no worries there. Definitely would recommend. May even order another for myself.
What you spend is what you get...

Like most women, Iâve tried numerous brands of over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders through the years, seeking the ultimate solution to comfortable daytime breast storage. Iâm of a standard size, thusly blessed with the ability to walk in any store and simply snag an appropriately labeled bra.Let me preface my comments on this specific bra with saying, yes, I may have eaten a few too many quarantine snacks during the pandemic, but my chest has held steadfast to its size.With that said, this boob pocket was much too snug! I had to do a version of the âtwist and shoutâ to get it closed, and it formed a whole other set of cleavage on my backside in the process... not attractive. Luckily a cheap bra extender from Targét provided the 2â of band length that the robot left off when sewing this bra together.Besides a mid-measured, complex-inducing band, this bra is exactly what you get for the money. Itâs not super soft nor does it really mold to your particular chest pillow shape, but itâs sturdy and gives them a nice boost on days that theyâre tired. I imagine with a few washes it will lose that sheen as inexpensive bras do, but I canât imagine my t-shirt will care about the shiny quality of said bra. The straps are weirdly a little puffy but comfortable, and the adjustment slider is opposite of the normal orientation, making it easier to tighten back up when it inevitably loosens through the day.Ultimately Iâm glad I spent $15 (plus $5 for an extender) to avoid a trip to the mall while the world is ending, but I doubt this bra will last as long as the pandemic.
Soft and Cute!

Very soft and light. I was pleasantly surprised! I have bought, tried on, and returned at least 30 bras over the past 6 months. All were either too bulky or too uncomfortable/itchy. Although I wish this bra came in a 40d because I prefer to use the tightest hook, this bra is pretty comfortable. I wear it on the middle hook and it's tight, but not too tight. I love that it's so soft and has thin straps, so can be worn with a camisole under a kimono or cardigan without the straps showing too much. I also like that the padding is thick enough to conceal, but not fake-looking. I bought this in black and toasted almond. I just ordered a second one in black and will also order they brown and white or cream. I'm so happy I finally found a bra that fits and doesn't drive her crazy with poking or itching in the back! They were reasonably priced, well-packaged with paper molds in the cups to help keep their shape, and arrived quickly. We'll see how they do after washing and if they hold up, but so far, I'm a fan!
