This is my favourite bra of all the Wacoal bras. I have bought all the colours and will continue to buy it. It's the perfect bra. It fits perfectly & is beautiful. It washes up well and holds its shape for a long time.

Wear only the Awarness bra for the past 12 years. Great comfort. It's also your association with breast cancer. My daughter has Brca 2.

I have the Awareness bra in many colors to coordinate with all m clothing . It offers great support. Because the shoulder straps are wide and padded it does not dig into my shoulders. And I love the new navy blue color.

The color of this bra is far more beautiful than the picture suggests.

I have discovered this bra over a decade ago and have never worn a different one, for a good reason. Any woman with non-standard bra size (36H or 38H) knows it is nearly impossible to find a bra that is functional, comfortable and looks nice. This bra has it all. Functionality is so important - I love that larger sizes have 4 hooks in the back, (number of hooks depends on the size, smaller sizes have 3, or even just 2 hooks, which works for smaller cups), all bras have WIDE soft shoulder straps saving a lot of pain. Underwire is a must for me, but the shape of the wire is perfect. I abuse my bras - wear them daily, wash them in the machine (I do not put them in a dryer though). They keep so well and continue to be functional even when they start looking a bit worn out. With my bra size - I KNOW bras. This one is exellent. The only one that kind of compares is a bra from Marks and Spencer, and it is still less comfortale (thin shoulder straps) and does not hold as well as this Wacoal. Quite simply, finding this bra has changed my life; any large chested woman would know it is not an exaggeration when I say this.

Great bra! It's been awhile since I have been able to buy a new Wacoal bra and I like the way they do underwire on this bra. It is most comfortable and I am large busted at a 40DD. I will be ordering a second one soon.

I have a number of these bras now and would not buy any other since having breast cancer. Comfortable at the same time good support. Wash excellent, air dry!

This is an absolutely beautiful bra in every way. It's well-made. The fabric is very pretty and soft. And best of all it's been hard for me to find 44 H bras that actually fit. And this one fits perfectly. It came in the mail today and I was excited to try it on.

This is my new favorite style. I have always liked it for comfortable support. I really appreciate now since I have had back surgery, The band is supportive, but also has enough give to it not give me back pain. Thanks Wacoal!

This bra is comfortable and provides the support I need. I really like the fact that the shoulder straps do not slide off !

I discovered the Awareness bra by accident and I am so glad I did. It is the most comfortable bra I have ever purchased. I own several colors and intend to buy more. I would recommend this bra to anyone who wears underwire.

I LOVE this bra! The cups are made with soft, stretchy material that conform to the breasts, and side support is better than any other bra I've worn. I do think this runs a bit small, as I'd be a 36 band in another brand. It wears well too. My first awareness bra from Wacoal is now about 10 years old, and with good washing care, has held up (literally AND figuratively!!) impressively.

I've been wearing the Awareness Underwire bras for years! I buy a few new ones each year or two. I've tried other brands and other styles but for comfort, fit and finding a bra in my 36H size this is the one I come back to again and again. Please Wacoal, please never discontinue!

I finally found the perfect fitting bra! I wear this in a 36i. The band size is a perfect 36, I'm 33.5 inches underbust, 43.5 inches bust, and 35.5 inches overbust.
How did I finally figure it out?? I followed the instructions by Laurel Hoffman for sizing a pattern since I sew and study patternmaking. Stop sizing up by 5 or 6 inches, ladies! Use the EXACT measurements of your underbust plus two inches, (since patterns are drafted with the bust inches in the back - so you are moving those 2 inches for a standard B-cup base bra draft), and only round up if your number is odd. After that use the EXACT measurements for your bust.
So, following this pattern drafting advice, my underbust of 33.5 plus two inches = 35.5 (notice this is equal to the overbust which is your chest circumference so if it's the same you can use this as well, but only if it's the same number.). Which means all the breast measurements are now in the front, as it should be. From there, select your bra cup size! Your bras will fit better and if you sew, your clothing will now have the correct front pattern size.

I'm new to Wacoal but as soon as I tried on the Awareness bra I knew I'd be a customer for life. I bought this bra based off the reviews and I love it so much I have 2 now. Fits me amazingly with great support and I think it's a very pretty bra. From the comfortable straps to the soft lining in the cups every detail is quality and I can't believe how good it feels to wear. I will continue to buy more as pretty new colors are released.

I have tried many styles of bras over the years and this is by far my favorite. It is so unbelievably comfortable. I am rather chesty and this bra does a great job of keeping the girls where they need to be. The one and only thing that Wacoal could do to improve this bra is to offer this exact bra in a fabric that does not include the embossing as this will show through some fitted shirts. Otherwise I have zero complaints about this bra. I highly recommend!!!

I bought this style from a boutique on my vacation and ended up loving it so much I came home and ordered 2 more (on sale!). I wear this one almost daily. I had stopped wearing underwire bras a few years ago because I thought there was no way they could ever be comfortable. Found the a bra that fits subreddit, found my correct size, and proved myself wrong with this bra. So so comfortable, supportive, smooth under clothes.

This is one of my go to bras. The support is amazing and i feel very secure in this bra. Its a workhorse in every sense of the word. Worth every penny. I wish fashion colors came in the small 32 band size but it doesn't. We like colors too Wacoal. Please be mote inclusive with color choices. Please don't punish the smaller band size ladies!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Best bra I’ve owned. I’m 34D, but my girls are somewhat perky, and I’d like them to stay that way. This bra manages to make them even perkier while also being super comfortable. And it looks great clothed and unclothed! I almost feel sexy in it. Definitely not a matronly bra. It has the support of a sports bra yet is extremely flattering, which is quite a feat. I bought one in every color and am debating whether to buy even more.

It is difficult finding bras that fit comfortably. I'm a breast cancer survivor, having had 3 surgeries, chemo and radiation, and the girls are noticeably different sizes. I've tried LOTS of bra's, and one side either gapes, or there's a hangover. This bra fits both sides, and doesn't give the appearance of different sizes. The colors are nice as well, white and nude are pretty boring! Highly recommend!
