Seamless underwire minimizer bra gives great support and lift

Best bra ever!
This is a style I have worn for years and could no longer find near me. It features something that sounds like an oxymoron: comfortable underwire support! I am a little embarrassed to say this, however, you might want to know this is a minimizing bra that makes you look "young and perky" again. If your bust size gets unwanted attention, you will enjoy losing 1-1/12 inches off the projection. My clothes fit better and I feel more appropriately dressed. Actually I feel prettier when I wear this bra--even though this isn't exactly a stylish bra. It is rather plain with little embellishments, but when you wear it ALL day in comfort, you might end up thinking it is the most "beautiful" bra you ever owned. I made the mistake of thinking the price was expensive until I started wearing it, but as you age, you need good foundation garments or you just don't look your best. It is worth every penny! I'm not saying this bra is for everyone but if you have large, heavy breasts that need support and you hate bras with a passion like I did--do yourself a favor and buy yourself one of these. These bras last years. You deserve it!

Way too small!
I had high hopes when reading the reviews for this bra, which were quickly dashed after receiving it and trying it on. I wear a 38D, but I was barely able to hook the strap. It was so tight, I had flesh oozing up over the strap. The cups were also really snug and I knew that if I tried wearing it all day, I was going to end up with four breasts instead of two. The back was pretty smooth, but again, when you have flesh spilling over under your arms and towards your back, it's not a nice look. I haven't decided if I want to try a different size because I don't know where to begin in choosing one. I really wanted this to work, especially at such a high price tag.

This is in relation to the price. This bra ...
This is in relation to the price. This bra used to be well worth the sixty-five dollars I paid for it. But somewhere down the line it's not maintained its quality. For instance, it's shelf life is a lot shorter and moreover, the side wire is shooting out of the side panels.It's incredibly uncomfortable.

Smoothing and very supportive
I am a 42 year old female who has a family history of women with large chests (I can't believe that I am actually writing this right now... :). My sisters and I used to wear a bra style from Bali which had a particular type of fabric - it was very smooth and supportive and didn't stretch out. This bra style from Bali was discontinued many years ago. We have struggled to find a replacement for that bra style until now - this is it!This bra is a minimizer type of bra which essentially squishes a larger chest to not only appear but actually be smaller (up to 1 1/2 inches off of your bust size). This may not be a good thing for everyone, but for someone whose chest is not proportional to the rest of my body, this is a very good thing.This bra is made of a shiny but supportive fabric. It really gives you a lot of support while still being very comfortable. This type of material last forever - it doesn't stretch out like other bras do over time. I know this because my sister still has some of the old Bali bras and they are more than 10 years old!The type of fabric creates a very smooth and flattering profile. You can wear this under anything and it will not show through your shirt. I wear a lot of tshirts, and this is a great tshirt bra because it doesn't have any frills or lace on the front which always show through a tshirt and look terrible, in my opinion.Although I read that Macy's is supposed to carry this brand, my local Macy's did not. I have not found this brand in any of the local stores here in the suburbs of Philly, so I was glad to find it here on Amazon.Regarding the size, I found that the cup size is what I expected but the band size ran a bit small - I had to order the next size up.In summary, I really like this bra and plan to order more of these soon.

Best bra for big busts--been wearing this 10+yrs!
For anyone with a large bust, you know how hard it is to find a great bra. I wear a 36DD, sometimes a 38DD, and this is my "go to" bra. I think I've been wearing this exact style for over 10yrs. It's not "pretty", but it's not ugly either. This bra holds my up& in, even makes my chest look smaller, doesn't make your boobs look "pointy", and my clothing fits perfectly over it.I will say that low cut tops are challenging with this bra. I can wear a moderate v-neck, and the top of the bra does want to peak out sometimes.I don't ever worry about the dreaded back fat with this bra.This is my favorite bra of all time. I have so many I can't count. My husband asks me all of the time if it's the only 1 that I own. I truly wear this with almost everything! If you are looking for something with support, and also want to help make your chest look a few inches smaller, without feeling smashed in...get this.

Break it in, call it beloved
I trust Wacoal for all my minimizing needs, and this bra fit the bill. The only reason I took off a star is because I had to break this bad boy in. Holy strap chafe!! Around the rib cage, I even broke out in a rash. I was bound and determined to see this through, and after a couple of wears, it loosened a little and was much more comfortable. Now, it's my favorite bra. My mum always used to say "pain is the price for beauty". I think this is what she meant.

nice bra, horrible fabric
this product was a great dissapointment for me.i always saw how expensive it was and never really wanted to spend that much on a bra i had never tried in person.i started reading lots of reviews on this website and finally decided to break the piggy bank and treat myself with this item.to my unfortunate surprise the materail on this one is not friendly at all,(I'm getting used to the random itchiness).the back part is def smaller than the usual 36 size i wear (in all other brands) so i have to wear this one on the widest and it's still a little bit tight.the rest looks all as expected and it does give your boobs a nice and firm look so if you don't mind the material, go ahead.

The best bra I've ever had!
This is the best fitting and most comfortable bra I've ever worn. It's shame about the price/shipping but the quality is fantastic and will last for ages!

Best Minimizer Yet
Finally after trying on many minimizer bras, I found the perfect fit and look. There is no overflow at the top, and it provides a nice shape and supportive, comfortable fit. It looks great with my T-shirts which is something I didn't expect! Very impressed, will be shopping for different colours when available.
