Great for summer layering! However...

Over-all:There is no support, no lift. The padding is not going to do much other than preventing pokage when the "chicken is done", but it does help to shape. I expected that. The front cut-outs do not appear to compromise the over-all construction of the bra itself as it is a sewn-in panel, so there is not a whole lot of stressing stretch being placed on that part of the bra. I think the stitching will last a while, and it's pretty comfy.However, the price does not reflect value. $17 on Prime for this is staggeringly expensive. I bought the same style elsewhere for $13~ on Prime and $10+shipping from the seller. The had run out of the red and I wanted a true red, so I scoured Amazon to find someone else. These are horribly expensive for what they are, especially for big-busted gals looking for something for high-impact workouts. This is not that kind of product with that kind of chest support, so the price doesn't seem worth it. Since I bought it, and then it took so long to get here because of the whole pandemic currently going on, and the price has changed to $15 I feel ripped off since it's the exact same thing.Since it's the same product with the same exact labels/manufacturer as the $13 listing I am leaving the same review on the product. Just be aware of the price. It may be worth it to you (as it was to me to get the red one) but I can't justify getting many more from this specific listing unless I REALLY have to have it in my closet.Construction:It's a nice thick nylon-ish material and the stitching looks rather solid. The problem is that the material is kind of hit-or-miss. I have multiple colors of this bra, and some have started to pill where others have stayed super smooth. The ones that have pilled are annoying to wear under thinner shirts because the bumps are noticeable, so many of these are being worn under zip-up hoodies.Care:Launder in cold water and DO NOT PUT IN THE DRYER- line-dry only. This material will start to fray, or at least get brittle and separate over time as it stretches and relaxes as it is. It WILL speed up the process if dried in the dryer. It should also be in a lingerie bag to prevent entanglement with other garments or around the agitator.Fit:I am a 42C so I went with extra large. It binds pretty well and feels really good. Anything more than a 44 band size or a D will want to go up a size, but I still have some wiggle room so it may work for 44C, 42D or adjacent sister sizes.Wearability:This is not a good bra if you are looking for something with lift, separation and all-over smoothing. It has SOME smoothing around the back, but I think that's mostly because of my body style and how short I am versus it being purposeful functionality. It's actually a pretty wide band, especially around the back where I experienced some smoothing, which suggests to me that a 40D, 42D, and 44C (and sister sizes) may have luck with the L/XL size. I have found that layering over a regular bra does call for going up a size so the bra doesn't shift as much and there is coverage over your regular bra. I am using this under flowy tanks where regular bra straps would look unsightly and bumpkin weekends. However, the front cut-out will add some pizazz to tops with a low neckline (especially if you want a touch of modesty), which will be great for summer layering and the office.Construction: 3Care: 4Fit: 3Wearability: 4

I purchased this on a live sale and decided to look to see if I could find them on Amazon. They are very comfortable. I think run a little small but stretch a lot. I donât like really tight things so the large/ extra large works. I was told by a friend to order your shirt size and I wear a medium and sometimes a large so I bought this bigger and am happy.
Not for Plus Size
Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2020
I wear L and XL, 40C, size 16 and I'm 5'7". Got an XL and it was almost choking me around the neck. I didn't like the way the straps were constructed in the back. Some criss-cross but the top one around the neck is way too tight. It's also hard to get on below the chest area. I believe this product was meant for smaller/thinner women. There's no support for plus size, either. Such a missed opportunity for makers as I've yet to find a No Wire Comfortable Bralette for Plus Size women.
Gorgeous bras, and what a deal!

This bra is well-made and simply beautiful. I got the purple in a 1X/2X (I'm a 36I bra size) and it fits a little loosely in the band, but I expected that...I got the larger size so that the cups would be bigger. I can just take it in on the sewing machine. I'm definitely ordering another color, so I think I will size up and just take the band in more. The lace is SO pretty and not at all cheap looking. I definitely have a lot of cleavage showing through the lace, which is fine for at home, but I wouldn't wear it out with a top unless the covered the cleavage...the lace comes up nice and high so I'm sure that I can do that.The straps are comfortable, and the fabric is smooth and nice and stretchy. Minimal support, but I plan to wear it out with a strapless bra under it to sort of hold it up. The straps work well with two dresses I have that have a halter-type neckline. Fine for wearing as is around the house, with or without the pads. I love that it's comfy and sexy at the same time and my husband loves it too! Can't wait to order the ash teal...beautiful color!UPDATE: The ash teal one just arrived in a 2X/3X and the fit will be PERFECT when I take in the band. It fits better in the cup but I definitely will have to take the back in a bunch as it's very loose. Both colors are much darker than pictured (I'd say 2-3 shades darker), but VERY pretty. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!...AND the last update: Returning the teal because it's a bit too blue for me. Got the light green, which is, again, much darker than the picture, but a pretty sage green (sort of grayish-green). STILL SO HAPPY WITH THESE BRAS! I'm sure that I'll get more in the future!
Love this! Fits great. Covers the girls! â¤ï¸

They run a little small, you might have to go up a size.

I love everything about this bra, it covers me chest to help protect it from the sun. It is very comfortable and very pretty. I wear a 38C bra due to side and back fat, I ordered the 1X/2X and that fit well I didnât get them for support just for the coverage of the chest and they have pads to cover if you get hi beams and I like that they are strappy in the back which looks nice. I ordered 2 that were the large and they fit too but a little tight but still fit so if you want a more comfortable fit go up a size. They have a really nice shape to them, I do wish they had white. All in all, Iâm telling all of my tennis lady friends about them. If I could give 20 stars I would.
Perfect
