    44H

    Hasn't set fit

    Been wearing 5 of this same bra for the last 6+ years, band stretched to hell so assume id take a 42 now-a-days (have lopped out about 2" on each bras back band to make them fit again), cups also too small (I might be an 42I) and the wrong shape for me (no bottom projection because they are moulded cups which sucks because I need the 'security' of the foam but wish they had more bottom projection so I could actually fit my boobs in them), only wear with an elastic strap between my shoulders to keep the straps up on my shoulders or they just slide off an leave my boobs too heavy.

    38H

    Hasn't set fit

    It does not last very long, after about 3 months is starts to feel very stretched out. It is very expensive, when you first put it on super tight, then it loosens a bit, but then too much, for about a 3 month period it is perfect but that is not very long for the price. Also cups are odd they are too large for frame size and rub under the arms, I had to go down a band size and then use an extender to be able to tolerate it.

    Hasn't set fit

    NWOT bra in a hard to find size! RN #114334

    The band fits tight for a 32 (lays 26" flat) so may fit a 30 or even 28 band also.

    32G

    Didn't fit

    This bra has so many issues. The bottom of the cups fold against my ribcage and the band is WAY too tight, probably a 30 rather than a 32. The cups seem large, maybe an H? This bra says that it is a 32 G US sizing but it fit more like a 30 H UK. The fabric and elastic have very little give, which makes the whole thing feel way more restrictive than it should.The cups are not at all proportioned for my FOB breasts. Maybe they would fit someone who is even? I can't see them working for full on top boobs as they give me quad boob and I only fill about half the cups. I honestly have no idea how this bra fits so poorly in every way.

    Didn't fit

    The band fit decently, but because the cups were way too small, I couldn't even get the gore to sit flat on my chest in order to see how much larger the cups needed to be.

    This bra is not owned any more

    • This bra is terrible. I thought this was going to be great, but it is far from great. It is uncomfortable, the straps never stay up, I do not like having to add pieces to my undergarments to make them fit (Strapees - so the strap want slip and the extension because the band way too tight.). I have to adjust my breasts throughout the day so the cup does bunch up and stick out. Overall, don't like it. And, the return policy is a laugh.

      If you are not happy with your bra purchase and they are unworn, unwashed and in original condition with tags on, simply contact your Independent EBW Representative within 30 days of purchase for an exchange or refund.

      How, may I ask if you are going to know that like or dislike the bra if you can't wear it. HAHAHAHAH

    I really like this bra, and I find it rather comfortable. The only thing I don't like about it is that I have to keep adjusting the strap length since the adjustable part is made of a satiny material. When it gets too loose they fall down off my shoulders all the time.

    If Essential Bodywear had made that one part of the bra out of a different, grippy material, it would be the best bra I've ever owned.

    Didn't fit

    Well, I had high hopes for this bra. I had a hard time finding a cute seamless bra in leopard (UK bras don't seem to come in animal prints as much), so I opted for an American company. A friend of mine sells these, and she raved about this bra, so I gave it a try. It would've worked it they came in the I-K cup range, but they stop at H. I was willing to order it, as when I tried it on at first I didn't notice the cleavage gaping, but after wearing it for several hours I see it. This bra ... just didn't lie flat in the center gore, and as the straps will stretch out, but not the cups, I knew it just would never fit. This is an American company, so yes, you do have to add four inches to your band size, and no, it doesn't matter in the sizing as it fits 27-32 inches. I'm a Panache 30GG, so if you're a 30G or FF in that brand, this should work for you. I'm a bit bummed, as it is made of nice materials and is super cute. I wish they would have bigger cup sizes, but alas, I have to sell it. I have worn this bra for one day, about six hours, and figured out that it wasn't for me. I bought it for $60, so I would like to sell it for $50 as it's brand-spanking new. Back to the drawing board for me!
