Customer Reviews Wacoal Basic Beauty Full Figure Underwire Bra

Firstly, this is a minimizing bra. Secondly it has 4 hooks (34DDD). I bought this bra for low impact exercise, mostly trekking/tramping/hiking/walking. For this purpose it is perfect. It looks good under a t-shirt, and is a thin breathable fabric. I was hoping for something with a bit more support and/or a better shape but it is fine. It is not a "girls on show" bra, but then I wasn't looking for that.

great support

I was sorry to see that this item was no longer available in pink.

My purchase arrived much quicker than I expected. I was able to get a color not available anywhere else in my size.

I wish there was a racerback version in 40D!!!

Cannot get a size to fit. I measure 37/44 so size should be close to 38DDD. In the larger sizes bands seem quite tight/stiff. 38DDD is a little too small in the cup and does not sit well center/under breast. 38G is more comfortable but cups not filled out and underwire sits too far back underarms. 36 band size is out of the question. I'm 5'10 and straps also seem short. Bra seems to be wellbuilt with quality materials.

The cup size and straps are perfect for me, but I need to add a back 3 hook extender to make it comfortable. If I go up a size, it all becomes too big on me.

Great Quality of Material & Workmanship.

This is the best bra I've ever bought. The only negative thing is that after a few washes, the fabric/band stretches so I have to use the next row of fasteners. If there was a way to prevent the stretching of the band, the bra would be perfect. Excellent investment. I have recommended this bra/Wacoal to others.

Love the Violet Tulle color - very glad the bra comes in more than white, black and nude. I have been looking for an unmolded, unpadded seamless bra for a very long time. It's time for color to come back into full figure bras! I would have rated it 5 stars except 2 of the bras I ordered (different colors) need to be hooked on the smallest or middle hooks as a seam does seem to irritate my back on the last hook.

The violet bra is the same hue as shown in the photo (unlike other bras I ordered from zappos that arrives looking very different). I like the fit. The bottom wire edge is not the softest, but only time will tell if I find it digs in or is ok.

This Bra is great. Please make more colors for larger sizes!!!!!!!!!!(44ddd)

Good quality product, you get what you pay for

Comfortable, band does not roll.

Very happy with this bra. It's very pretty and works well under slinky tops that hug the body. Doesn't show seams and straps stay put comfortably.

First bra I have worn that is comfortable enough to wear all day ... underwire doesn't cut into you like other brands.

Please make this in a 3 hook closure. Back is too high for me to reach last hook. Love the fact that the straps don't slip. Very comfortable. I am 69yrs young and a 38G and other than the top hook this bra would get 5 stars.

This is a very nice bra and the racer back straps mean I'm not constantly dealing with slipping straps. Wacoal bras are great, but this old retired lady finds them pricey.

Delivery was very quick and returns were no hassle at all. Look forward to making more purchases. Instructions for care and fitting are very helpful.

Overall I love this bra! I'm 5' 108lbs. and a 32 DD. It's difficult to find a quality, well-fitting bra in stores for my petite frame and although I've worn Wacoal for almost 20 years, I was skeptical about ordering online. I was pleased with how fast I recieved my purchase and the customer service offered. I wear this bra very frequently. I never have to adjust the girls throughout the day as with other brands and it's very comfortable and flattering. The only negative is the underwire scratches me on one side.

This felt better on than I expected. Will purchase again!

I'm over satisfied with this bra, it minimizes, provides support and great for 16 hour shifts. Only problem I have is that the straps loosen constantly. Maybe my breasts are just too heavy lol I night just so the straps so that they stay in place permanently.

Love just about everything about this bra. Only issue is the lining in the photo was pink and the actual bra's was brown. Makes the bra not as pretty. Otherwise, great!

Although a bit high cost, this bra has not disappointed. I ordered two more, b/c the fit and comfort is outstanding.
