I'm new to ABTF, previously worn 32B/C, recommended now to a 30DD or 32D, so this is the second size I've tried in this bra, and this is a much better fit for cup size with a 32D rather than a 32C. I'm center full, so I do have some slight quad-boob happening in the middle section, but it's not majorly visible, and the cup feels like a good fit for my even top-bottom fullness and slight projection besides that. Lovely dark olive green color.

first off, I know this is too small in the cups. I wanted the effect I get from wearing this style too small. Being a wireless bra with no gore allows for major cleavage if you size down. Aeries size chart is confusing, but I found you can order your actual band size. Runs true to size. In fact, the material has 360 stretch so you don't need to worry about accommodating for different sized breasts or fluctuations throughout the month.
The cups are wide enough on the sides and tall enough for higher roots. The straps are unusual. They are two thin straps that stay next to each other. Im not sure what the point is.
The band is lace while the cups are a dreamy material I've never felt before. Softest material.
Not good support. Maybe better support with the full coverage version. Definitely feel the bounce when I walk down steps.

I would prefer this exact same style but with full cups instead of demi-cups, because the low cups "quad" when I move. These cups are very short, so they don't help keep armpit folds hidden.

This is a comfortable bra but I think it is the wrong size or shape for me. I am trying it in different size

Really soft fabric, but much too shallow for me. The gore is really low, especially for a full cup bra. The band is extremely stretchy.

I love the material - color, quality of the lace - but the shape is too shallow and the wires are too wide.

My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.
Really wanted this bra to fit. It has a beautiful light lavender color and it's got super smooth fabric. However, this bra was a horrendous fit for me. Way shallow, I got mega quadding along the top seams, like my breasts couldn't "breathe." This is a full cup, so it's very modest which can be nice if you want to cover up. The gore on this bra was a pain, it is so separate and sat on my breasts way too much. Nonetheless, this bra was actually the one that made me realize I need shorter gores/slim gores which was a huge plus in my bra search.
This bra will work for you if you're shallow and have lots of space between your breasts at the center.

This bra is ultra-comfortable and works surprisingly well for my shape. I’m projected, very slightly full on top, center full, close set, narrow roots, and slightly tall roots. This bra is a little shallow for me, the wires are much too wide, and the band is too loose. Still, I fill the cups with minimal quadboob, it’s not totally unsupportive, and I love wearing it around the house. If this bra came in 30FF or 28G I’d be in heaven.
It does stretch out very quickly. After 2 months, the stretched band length is 35” (pretty bad for a 32DDD). It’s also showing signs of losing its shape already, so the quality isn’t the greatest. What it has going for it is looks: the lace detail is pretty but not uncomfortable at all, there’s a cute bow, and it’s a nice but subtle shade of light blue.

I have a 29" underbust but wear aerie bras in 32C or 34B since they usually run tight. I found a pair of these on Poshmark and figured I'd give them a try.
Unlike most aerie bras this season, the bra is primarily cotton, so the band is soft and stretchy (or maybe the previous wearer stretched them out?). The cups are a bit big but nothing that I can't work with. Unsurprisingly these fit exactly like the 36A bras I'd been wrongly wearing for the last 10 years - They don't fit perfectly but are good enough.
If you find this bra somewhere I'd recommend trying this out in your true bra size or one band size larger.

This review is for the Real Me Unlined bra made of nylon and elastane.
Woah! Out of 8 bras I tried on today, this one was the only one that really worked, and I love it.
I didn't have much hope when I picked it out because unlined bras don't usually work for my conical, wide shape (the ones I've tried are either all too projected or narrow). I gave this one a try because I really wanted a burgundy bra, and I ended up pleasantly surprised!
When first trying it on I did notice a lot of wrinkling, but after swooping and scooping I manged to fill in the cups ... just fine. It's soo comfortable, and one of the best fits I've found so far. The (un)lining of the cups is stretchy so I'm sure this would work for those with more projection than I have.
Despite what the other reviews say, I found the cups to be too close-set for me. With the cup separation only at 1 inch, there is wrinkling at the center because my breasts are further apart (separated by about 4 fingers). Wrinkles at the top of the bra too but I'm used to that with my short roots using full coverage cups.
The underwire width and length are perfect for me. My left breast is larger than the right, so I find with a lot of bras that if the underwire is too tall it cuts into my breast tissue on the left. This one fits well enough that it doesn't bother me.
Because it's an unlined bra, nipples can be seen when it's cold out. I'm enjoying wearing it to lounge around the house. Provides a bit of shape for my conical breasts, but not enough that I can wear it under a tight shirt. I tried on the Real Me Lightly Lined bra hoping that it would fit the same but it didn't.
I tried a 34B because with aerie bras I'm either 32C or 34B, depending on the firmness of the band. I have a 29" underbust and can use all 3 hook lengths with no trouble. May go back and try on a 32C to see if it fits better, but for now this one will definitely do!

Bought when I was thinner/also guessing my size. The band is much too stretchy and thin, the straps are too thin and weak to support breasts. Cup too low/shallow. Not as good quality as fuller cup brands. The material has also changed to a thinner/cheaper material in the past few years, as noted when I tried a Brooke (32DDD) model in-store last year. The material/fit/construction of Aerie bras just doesn't seem to suite fuller cups.

This is a molded bra so hard to tell if the fit is "perfect." That being said, it's comfortable and lays flat under a t-shirt.

This is a very cute bra that I really love. The only reason I’m selling it is because I bought the wrong size.

This is only bra I own at the moment that is close to my measured size. Its not bad, I can wear it, but I experience soreness on the outer edges of the wire. Fit wise, it works fine both with and without the inserts, however I do experience a bit of gapping in the right cup on the upper portion.

This is a really comfortable, basic bra. I wish it fit and wouldn't mind trying it in the next size up. In my opinion, the times I did wear it the band seemwto stretch out fairly quickly/not feel very supportive. Though, from the start, this band was too big for me.

This bra is not my size so this could be the reason why the center clasp and underwire digs into my chest and theres no support, like my boobs just sit there. Also, the underwire sits on top my breast tissue in the center and the halter itches/ hurts where the top of the lace meets the adjustable straps on the back and straps dig in on the tops of my shoulders

I absolutely love this bra. It fits perfectly and is comfortable!

Aerie was having a huge sale and I saw this bra for $15 so I bought hoping it would be right between the Sunnie lightly lined and the Sunnie push up. For reference the Sunnie lightly lined is my go to bra for everyday wear and the push up fits well but really heaves the boobs up, something in between would be nice.
The Band:
I wear a 32C in the Sunnie but this band seemed not so stretchy so i opted for the 34B. The band is wide all the way around and is 2 inches at the 3 row clasp. It seems true to size and ... is very snug on the first hook.
The Straps:
The straps are typical 3/8" wide stretch straps that aren't placed too far apart. They stay in place and are plenty comfortable. Beware, they don't fully adjust do to the design in the back and are almost too long for me, if you are short with high set breasts you might have an issue with these straps.
The wires:
good length, average stiffness, not a problem.
The Cups:
The cup width and height is perfect for my shape. The placement of the padding caused the wires not to sit in the fold, if I adjusted the straps to get the wires where they belong I got a nice lift but the gore wouldn't tack (this is the first time I have ever experienced this and wow, is it annoying). Letting the straps out, the gore tacked, but no where near my tissue and no lift. Also the cups are STIFF, look good in the mirror but look surprisingly pointy under a shirt.
Overall not a bad fit, kind of like the Bridget but with more padding, and in a pinch I could wear it without much complaint other than the gore. Even though the price is right I will be returning this.

This bra is absolutely beautiful! It just gets uncomfortable with sweat or humidity. It also seems to squeeze and leave marks around the band and top of the cup, even though it still slides up a little with movement.
