It has no side support at all. I got this before measuring after weight loss and the cups were too small. The fabric and the band are smooth and comfortable. This brand doesn't make any in my current size.

This bra is technically a cup size smaller than I measure, but I decided to take a chance after trying this brand on in stores and finding the fit pretty near perfect for me. The bra band is a seamless band, with no ridge of elastic, rather the band itself seems to be folded under to create the illusion of elastic, but it gives a seamless look. Despite the lace like overlay on the armpit side of the top of the cups, this bra is invisible for me under snug fitting clingy shirts.

The inside of the cups of this bra are absolutely buttery soft! There is a small ... ridge of extra padding above the underwire that I honestly don't know the purpose of, but I can't feel it when wearing. Maybe for added lift?

The band is so stretchy that I feel like I could comfortably go down a band size to make it as snug as I like my bras. I can wear this bra on the smallest hooks and still stretch it very far from my body, so the lifespan of this particular bra will probably not be very long.

The underwire is very comfortable, with no digging or stabbing, and the crossover gore is very attractive. The upside down V the crossover creates is perfect for my body shape, as I have a very prominent belly.

If I could change anything, I would want the band more stable and less stretchy so I can comfortably wear it for longer before it stretches out too much to be comfortable.

I recently discovered my REAL bra size (34DD-E) and was desperate to try something from an actual store I could walk into and wear on my body. I'm not too keen on the idea of ordering online and being unsure of the fit.

Well, Walmart was definitely a no-go, as they only carry the standard US sizes, so I directed my husband to Target instead. He proceeded to scour the racks for 34DD sized bras with me, and found The Only One in the store for me to try. I took a few 34Ds as well to try on, but they were, of course, all fail.

The ... class="mentioned-item">Warner's brand bra was the only 34DD, and it seemed "okay" in the store. In desperation for something, I just bought it, but now that I've had it for a few days, I can see a lot of issues with it fit-wise.

Firstly, this bra only fits me when I'm standing up with my shoulders back and straight. If I sit, or slouch, or roll my shoulders forward at all, I find HUGE gaps in cup fit. Clearly this type of cup is not for me, as I have rather shallow, weight-on-bottom breasts. This cup could be good for a weight-on-top girl.

Secondly, this bra cuts into my armpit and leaves very raw red marks. I've not tried to modify it at all, but I may attempt to bend out the underwire a tad in the future.

The band is FAR too stretchy, IMO. In the store, it was very comfortably tight on the last column of hooks, but when I got it home, I needed the middle column. The second time I wore it at home, I had to close it up to the first column. Not good.

Above all, I HATE that Target mislabled this bra as something it was not. A 38D is NOTHING close to a 34DD, damnit! No wonder I got it home and the band is all stretched out and the bloody thing won't fit properly! It wasn't actually my size!

Those were the worst of it, really. Ill-fitting cups, too-stretchy band, and god-awfully uncomfortable, poking underwire. This is what I DID like about this bra:

I LOVED the band width! Bands in the sizes I've always worn previously are always really skinny, and this nice wide band keeps the bra In Place, which I thought was great. The band itself, sans underwire, is really comfortable.

I LOVED the gore. This is the first time I've ever in my life had a comfortable gore that fit against my sternum without either flopping back off of it or digging in there. If I could change the cup a little and fix the wires, I would love this bra for all day wear.

Lessons learned from this shopping experience? Quit being desperate, triple-check fit, watch out for those pokey underwires, and ALWAYS CHECK THE SIZE ON THE BRA ITSELF!

Just straight-up too big. I find the band curls under in the front, right on the outside of my breasts, and digs in uncomfortably. The band is also much too big and rides up in the back.
