This is the first 30 band bra I have kept, so I don't have too much to compare it to. The band is tighter than all my 32 band bras, and takes some getting used to, but does not leave any marks. It does ride up after some wear and movement, so I could probably go down a band size. The cup size is adequate for one side, but too small for the other (cuts in to top of breast tissue). Because the one cup is too small, and there is give in the band, the center gore is pushed outward and does not lay flat on my sternum. The lace is nice and does not irritate, but it is visible under sheer fitted shirts.
This is a great bra for cleavage. The cups don't gape on my FOB breasts, and the edge of the cup lays flat under shirts. It gives a really nice shape, as well.
The comfort is average - not so much you'd want to lounge around in it, but perfectly comfortable for all-day wear. I love the lace-ish detail. I've heard it described as scallops or shells - really unique and feminine without being girly. It's nice and soft too, unlike some scratchy trims used on other bras.
I really don't have any cons for this bra. Although it's a cleavagey shape, the girls feel nice and secure. I don't really wear clothes that reveal cleavage, but I like knowing it's there anyway. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
This was the first G-cup bra I ever encountered, by chance at my local Macy's. As such, it was a revelation, as I had previously been cramming myself into 34DDs.
It has not been a particularly good bra. The band is too big; the cups are too small but too deep, and slip down practically onto my stomach. It is also possibly the largest, ugliest thing in the world, and the shape it gives is slouchy. However, I have to give it the respect it deserves for introducing me to the *possibility* that there might be bras out there better than it, that would work for me.
All in all this is a good bra for me. What I like most about it is that the top of the cups isn't too high so I can wear more low cut things like tanks and camis with it. It also doesn't collapse or flatten at the bottom like some molded cups do on me. the wires are firmly secure at the base. What I don't like is how thick the cups are. They give a slightly pointy shape and slightly press into the inner part side of the breast. However, there is no quadra-boob going on at all. The diamond pattern overlay is very pretty, but it does show through tissue-weight fabric but not through regular t-shirt weight fabric.
Good - my breasts fit quite well in the cups, which is rare for me. Might have to do with having wide root? The band is just a little on the tighter side, which I appreciate as I edge closer to a size 30 band.
Not so good - it isn't particularly flattering with my size and shape, although it's not so bad.
Bad - in the center, the underwires dig into my sternum. Not the best in comfort, but since it's otherwise a good fit, I'll live with it.
Beautiful bra! I got the cappucino/mocha color combo. Prettiest bra I've ever had. Band seems tight for a 34, which is good since I'm really a 30 or 32. The cups wrinkle a little, but mostly on my smaller boob which can't really be helped. Very comfy fit, except the lace on the band itches a little. Kind of torn on the headlights issue, maybe I will return this one and get a molded bra instead.
It keeps everything in place and is great if you're looking for something that minimizes a large chest. The cups extend a bit far past my chest into my underarms but it's not uncomfortable.
In terms of a strapless bra this is such a step up from my previous purchase (Torrid Strapless Bra in a 40DDD), but it's still too small in the cup. The band is so much better that it's almost ridiculous, but the cups are too small, and the top of the cup is too closed in up top.
I love this bra. It's super comfortable, the band is the right amount of stretchy, and my boobs fill it out almost perfectly, though on my smaller breast there is a small gap at the top of the cup that forces a small barely noticeable pucker. Otherwise, no pokes, no digs, just happy bra goodness. I love Wacoal because they accommodate my side-boobs so well. I'm losing weight so I need a smaller band now, but I would totally buy this again. My only wish is that the center gore were a bit shorter because sometimes it shows under v-neck tops. If only they made more plunge models...
This is the first bra that I've purchased that actually mostly fits me. It's comfortable, and for the first time in my life I'm actually excited to put it on in the morning as opposed to dying to take it off all day. I do have to re-scoop and swoop during the day because the band is too big, but everything else is great. The construction of the cups, band, and gore seem sturdy, and the cups are molded well for my shape.I will say that it's not particularly pretty, but it makes for an excellent t-shirt bra.
This bra is very pretty, which is why I bought it. The band fits well and the cups are almost right. They wrinkly a tiny bit at the top is all. I tried the 32DD as well but this fit better.
I bought this for the pretty and I am not disappointed. I did remove the bow in the center because it is pink, while the rest of the bra is black and white. It is not a perfect fit, the center gore isn't quite right and the tops of the cups wrinkle a bit.
Im not crazy about the look of this bra but its a very good fit. The straps are not too far apart which is a problem for me in most G cup bras. The molding is not too thick and the top coverage does not come too high. I get a nice rounded shape that does not make me look too wide. The gore is low which is important to me because regular gores really irritate the skin on my sternum.
This bra is very comfortable. I usually hate full cup bras but I love the way this one looks and feels at that top part going into the straps. The band is very stretchy though. I got the 34 at first because it felt properly snug, but after a few wears I noticed it was riding up and stretching out a bit.
This is a very good fit for me. I thought I was a 32ddd but that was way to small in the cups. Going up a cup size got me the perfect fit. It doesn't flatten me and give me a good, rounded shape. The gore is low and doesn't poke and the bra doesn't come up too high. The only issue is that the straps are a little far apart and tend to press on the area where the my pectoral muscle meets my shoulder.
This bra is the best fit I've had so far, the cups seem to run a bit bigger than other Wacoal models I have tried but because of that I had no overspill or quadraboobing. The spot jacquard patten is really cute, however I wasn't crazy about the look of the textured straps. The best part is that wires are not too wide which gives really nice frontal projection, instead of the east-west look that a lot of bras give me.
The only issue I really had with it was the gore came up kind of high and was made of this mesh material that itched like crazy after a while and left me with an irritation rash. Because of this I had to return it
I like this bra a lot, but it doesn't come anywhere close to fitting me anymore. My breasts are much too big for it now.
It has a firm band, pretty lace trim, and gives good cleavage. The foam cups are thick enough to provide nipple coverage, but thin enough to form to the breast and be discreet under clothing. It has a low gore, which is nice because I usually find them pokey. I often have trouble finding bras that don't cut in at the top of the breast tissue, and this one had room but didn't gape. I wouldn't say it was very open, but it wasn't too closed either. Good for even or slightly bottom heavy breasts that need a bit more room in the middle.
This was the "before" bra. It was the largest cup size I could find in store where it looked like it covered my boobs but as you can guess it was a terrible fit! The gore does not lie flat, The band rides up and the straps fall down. It appears to fit (other than the ginormous band) before I s&s, but then I have major major quad boob.
I am currently sized into a 38FF UK size now but am losing weight and playing the "buy a million bras and see which actually fit game!"
The strap is a bit itchy but that usually goes away within a week after it is broken in. It also seems to be smaller then a normal 30" I'm used to, even within the same brand(which i hear is normal) but it isn't uncomfortable and it will stretch out a tad after the break in. So if you are inbetween bands i would suggest trying the bigger one first. I do get some quadboobing but its on the bottom inside where nobody can see,this just isn't the right style of bra for my shape. It's not noticable unless my shirt is off, no matter what kind of shirt i have on or how tight it is, so i will deal. But it is a plunge which doesn't really work on shallow or full on bottom breasts which i have both of so if you are either I would pass.
