Customer Reviews Wacoal Basic Beauty Underwire Bra

I wear a 34H. I have other Wacoal 34H bras that fit beautifully. This bra is not a 34H. It fits like a 32. And now I'm stuck with it because all sales are final. I never would have ordered it if I thought for one minute that it wouldn't fit!

Too small. No support

The band size of this bra was a good 4 inches shorter than my other bras. AND I had to pay to return it!

Have worn Wacoal only for over 20 years and sadly I find they are not the same. I wear a size 44 bra. I wear either a C or D cup depending on the style. Lately they skimped on their sizes. I have tried a few and they all seem to be missing at least an inch around. Sorry will have to return this one too.

I bought this online because I could not get the colour I wanted in store. I tried on bras to make sure I had the right sizing. But NO! The elastic around the ribs is a full 12 inches smaller than the sizing suggests. BUY MUCH LARGER THAN YOU WOULD NORMALLY ORDER. Unfortunately, I will be returning, and have to pay for my own postage!!

I bought this in 38DDD and the elastic around the ribs measures only 28 inches. I don't know how you expect the elastic to stretch 10 inches. I will be returning it and looking elsewhere as paying for the shipping to return it is too expensive.

I'm wearing the same size I ordered for both bras. This one was way too tight; the other one fit like a glove. Not happy.

I ordered several with a 36 inch band size based on your fitting advice. It is very tight. I measured the bands and they are only 35 inches. I had previously bought 38 band. They also only measure 35 inches. The quality is very good, but very uncomfortable to wear.

Ordered a 34G, it was too big. Talked to customer service and she told me 34DDD , had 3 snaps in the back. It came with 4 snaps. Very uncomfortable front and back. Not a good fitting bra.

I bought 2 full figure bras of the same size, 40DDD. One fits perfectly, but this one - Basic Beauty, is several inches shorter around and is much too tight! Hard to put on, uncomfortable to wear. Why should two bras from the same company of the same size and almost identical design (only difference I can see is the fabric) measure several inches different? Returning this one, getting 2 more of the other one (Keep Your Cool). I have pictures, but don't see how to submit them with this review.

I have been wearing this for years but this past year the style of the back has changed, or they are seconds, and every bra i have tried to wear can not be fastenedvin the back. There is a gap of 3 to 4 inches that the band simply does not give enough to close. I have had to return half a dozen bras in this style. If you measure the band in comparison to other wacoal bras the same size the band is 3 to 4 inches shorter.

This style always fits well

I ordered a 40H and when I tired it on they were both way too small! This is not the first time this has happened. Very disappointing that Wacoal doesn't have consistency in their sizing

I purchased two bras, different styles, each 40h which is the size I have worn for over ten years, the bras arrived and I was very excited to try them on. I tried to put the first one on and the band was 6 inched apart, it never would have fit, I then tried the second one, same thing. Very disappointed, I then measured the band size and both bras were less than 30 inches across!!! Who designed these bras, they will never fit a 40,,,,, I contacted customer service, no help at all, told I still had to pay shipping back even though they never would have fit. Please read the reviews for this company before you buy, this happens all the time.

My favorite style is tee shirt bra #853192 but thought I'd try this style as it seemed similar. Big mistakeI ordered my normal size but the band is tight on last hook and not a fan of unlined cups either. I didn't want to bother returning but I'd never choose this style again!

Runs small, thin material, I didn’t find it comfortable.

I ordered other bras in the same size that were fine, this one I could not even get the band around. Very disappointing

I usually wear a 40G in the Basic Beauty Underwire Tshirt Bra so thought that the same size would work in this style too but it is significantly tighter in the band and I have had to return it as a result.

My size never comes in the pretty colors...32G.

This bra came defective and wasn't even. Very disappointed at the quality as I have been wearing Wacoals for years

Bought usual size, band just bearly met, squished me all around

this bra was the wrong brand. I am returning because it must be a mistake.

Yes I read it was unlined. But with so many great reviews I tried it. The fit was great and it was comfortable but I don't know how anyone can wear an unlined bra. I would have had to wear multiple layers all the time. Very immodest and I had to send it back.

I just love to support and comfort bra offers the straps stay up it's very comfortable to wear I wear it all day I hardly know it's on and even has enough support to do some yoga and light exercise

First off, this is a minimizer, which is not in the item description. But ok, fine. I would have kept it except the design is STUPID - the underwire does not go all the way up the side under the armpits where the bra goes. It stops like 3/4 of an inch short and so the top of the wire digs into your skin and pinches it between the top of the wire and the edge of the side of the bra. Like torture.
