I would say cups run slightly small (compared to Wacoal sizing). This almost fits. I will cut out the lining for a roomier cup and it will also be more suitable for warm weather. I had to check if I had measured this bra before I altered it! I have this in 34D and cut out the lining but I had quad boob on inner cups after a while. The 34D will be listed as a give away today!
Cup height measured on lace (lining 15,5 cm).
Straps can be also be worn crossed or as halterneck. Total length on one strap is 54 cm.
I love the patterns and softness of the fabric that Maidenform uses, but I have full on bottom boobs and I don't think this is a good style for them because though I get quadraboob near the bottom of the cup, there's still a little gaping at the top.
The wire for this bra is 1/2" shorter than the wire channel, and in my bra it tends to migrate to the back of the channel during wear, which pulls the center gore away. The wire does not poke my underarm even when it's at the back of the channel.
This is an excellent unlined, structured, wired, lace bra that can be worn everyday. The 36 band fits larger than most Maidenform bras that I wear and I will need to wear a 34DD in this bra in order to wear the bra on the last set of hooks.
This bra is absolutely beautiful and so comfortable. The material is extremely soft and the lace detail on the sides does not directly touch your skin. I recently had a baby and purchased several new bras just before I found out I was pregnant. Perfect, like new condition from a pet free and smoke free home.
This is an older bra, so take this with a grain of salt. It's a beige bra with lace around the edges. Originally the lace was decently pretty, but over its lifetime has almost shredded. The cups gape at the top and there is wrinkling around the perimeter due to breast projection. Avoid.
Good basic bra, if the band fit it would be perfect. Underwires follow breast tissue well. I've had it a few years and the wires haven't poked through, no broken rings and no frayed seams.
This bra is far too small in the cup and too big in the band for me, but would likely not be a bad bra for a true 36D. My ribcage is 28 inches, so I'm constantly pulling the band down, and I have terrible spillage.
I wish this bra came in a band size down and a couple cup sizes up. Even brand new I had to wear it on the tightest hook as it wasn't my true size. (I think the cups sizes run a little small in this brand.) That said it's a very comfortable bra. I love the green color it comes in. The band around the back is thick and supportive. Same with the shoulder straps. I don't feel as though they'll slip off my shoulders. This bra hasn't stretched much on me yet, granted it is relatively new.
This 36D cup felt bigger in the cups on me than the other 36D's I've worn in this brand. I don't know if this model runs big or if I just got an odd bra. (Works for me though, I fit better into this cup.)
It doesn't give me any lift because the band's far too big. I bought this before I knew my real bra size. It's the kind of push up with the padded bottom. I find that when I pull the band tight on me my boobs squeeze over the top, in a quadboob way rather than give me cleavage.
