Supportive and comfortable, well made -but tricky sizing!
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2019
(Ms. DL takes the keyboard now)..."The reviews here were helpful in guessing which size to order -and I just about got it right.I ordered up two band sizes, and down two cup sizes, and that was close.I'm usually a 40d in Vanity Fair or 42c in Playtex, and in this one at 44b, the "b" fits more like a "d+".Support is really good, the band is about right and came with 2 rows and 2 columns of hook 'n eyes, but could use a third column of hooks, and for a balconette, the cups are still generous for a "b", but not awfully so.I got the classic beige one and the tone blends well under light-color tops.The lace is kind of bumpy under thin knits, such as a scrub top. Not what you'd call a t-shirt bra for wearing out.The underwire is pretty comfortable, only slightly poky at the underarms.Surprisingly, my favorite thing is the support and not feeling restricted in the cups. The 3/4" stretch straps are a bit wide for this style in this size with generous length, and they stretch their entire length with just the right amount of give. I'd call it firm stretch.The strap attachment points in the back are ovals which makes more sense than the usual round ones. I wish all USA bra makers would adopt this feature.I have another different maker EU balconette that gives better above-the-cup fullness, but this one beats it in the comfort and support aspect.After a day of wear taking it off was not the first thing I thought of as I got home and that's not what you'd expect in a style like this."
It fits more like a 34 D

Although very cute, this product size is not as listed. I wear a 34 DDD so that is what I ordered. It fits more like a 34 D! There is absolutely no way I can wear it. :(
Great purchase!!

This bra is confortable! No poking anywhere! It is a light enough pink on it that it can't be seen through white clothes and it doesn't space my breasts out in the center as some do. I love it!
It's pretty

I guess my breasts are still too small to fill the cup completely. There is space at the top of the cup. But I like the bra and how it fits. Wish they would make the strap around the check less than 5 hooks wide. Not really needed.
i ordered in my size and i am spilling over ...

For the price.. I get it, I shouldnât expect greatness. This bra pretty much met my expectations in terms of quality and fit: the material is that cheap feeling, semi-hard polyblend fabric that doesnât mold to your breast but keeps it own shape and looks a bit weird under clothes. I ordered a size up in band width and adjusted for cup size; Iâm glad I did because the band fits well but the cup size is a bit off. This could be because of the bra style (balconette) but two of my favorite bras are this style and I donât have the âmy cup runnith overâ issue with them like I do with this bra.Unless the bra is completely Ill-fitting right out of the gate, I typically try to wear them for a while to see if they âmoldâ and fit better down the line.. so Iâll keep this bra and prob just wear it around the house but not something I would trust to hold up and keep the girls looking good when going out .
Very Comfy, may have to go up a size

Super cute, but I had to go up a size. Seems to run a bit small. I usually wear 36DD or 38D. Originally I ordered 38D and had to exchange it for the 38DD as I had some spillage. Nevertheless, I love it! So comfy so far. It feels like I don't have anything on. Glad I bought it. I was skeptical at first bcs of the price. I usually have to spend $48.00+ for my bras, so I'm sure you can appreciate my hesitancy. Great buy!

Wire now poking out after only a few washes so not impressed overall.
Beautiful cut and good quality

I send them back because they were too small but that's because I am between two sizes as I am trying to lose weight. The bra is beautiful; for the price, the quality is very good and the cut is perfect even for big breast like mine. It makes your look good especially with a V neck t-shirt. I have been looking for balconette bras for a long time but it was hard to find a good cut for a 36D. I recommend this bra you will not be disappointed.

Lovely bra - shape, material etc but came up big. I ordered a 40DD and got a 90E - just a little too big in the cups and slightly too big in the band. However I am keeping it as the straps are nice and comfy, it provides a nice shape under my clothes and is as light as a feather on if that makes sense. One other plus is it's very hard to find a true ivory bra.

Nothing like the picture, gives u an awful pointy shape instead of rounded & flattering like most balcony style bras - not fitted to the body, cheap material which has never been lace & no support whatsoever.

Wife thinks it is good fit and quality and very comfortable.
