I started wearing this bra after you discontinued a similar style that I had worn for years. It does the job but I don't like the the looks of the bra. I don't like the insert at the top of the toast color bra which I ordered because it is not the same color as the bra. I ordered the bra in black previously which has an off white insert which I don't like this. It defeats the purpose of a black bra. It's a pretty bra for us larger women; but, I think you could do
better.

I bought this bra in the festive red in my usual 34dd. I have this bra in every colour.
The cup was noticeably bigger, akin to a 34e, which I also have. I hope I can get it in the 34d red! I love it so much. Fantastic support and such a glamorous look. Very well made.

They have reduced the length of the fabric at the end the bottom hooks. Often you wind up with hooks digging into your back. I wear no other bra, so I know that this is a new thing. Hopefully it is just the Persian Red and will mot be true of all Retro Chic bras in the future.

I love my new bras! They feel good, love the fit and they are pretty. Only reason not 5 stars, I requested black but received 2 navy blue with a label stating it was black.

Only bra's I have worn for the last 10 years or more. Fits perfectly, lifts, straps do not cut shoulders at all! Wish they had more colors or would be a 5+ .

I love the fit of this bra but I wish there wasn't a seam right across the center of the cup. It shows through some of my tops.

I love the look of the bra. The cut is sexy with the retro look I love! The fit is great and the bra is comfortable. I'm so excited!

Very pretty color and nice lace. Soft and supportive. There is not a liner inside, only a lace layer. Something to know.

I have difficulty with bras not providing enough support. I'm so happy to discover Wacoal, and this bra in particular. Very pretty and supportive-great fit. I didn't give it 5 stars only because it's not super comfortable, but sometimes that's the way it is with bras that will support me.

Fit in size and cup was perfect. Comfort perfect. But the straps continued to fall off my shoulders.

Love the shaping and support this gives me without padding. Even though there's no padding, nipple show is not a problem because of the way it is constructed. Has deep cups.

I have been wearing the feather embroidery in a 38 DD for years. I ordered 2 feather light and 1 retro chic. I found an pretty significant size difference in the 2. The retro chic was much smaller in circumference. I had already removed the tags so I figured I could not return it but will know if the future to order a size up in the retro chic

This bra is both sexy and functional. I am more wide than full in the cup, so I had a tiny bit of wrinkling of the center cup line. I love how full coverage and sexy this is for DD size.

I think it's a wonderful bra, but it was a bit tight. I have to use an extender, but it's an incentive to stick to my diet.

This bra fits well, keeps me lifted, but the sides and back are so itchy, maybe it's the 3 hooks?! It's been washed multiple times in machine, and it continues to be uncomfortable especially in hot weather. I bought it because it was similar to a discontinued style but it's just not as good, for me anyway.

Beautiful and very sexy lace bra. It has a combination of white and black lace. The lift is great and support seems pretty good too. There is no padding only lace and you can tell under my sirt I am wearing a lace bra which is why the 4 stars.

I wanted to try this bra for the lift and it certainly does that. I tried it on under a few different shirts and the seaming shows under my cotton tshirts, but not under heavier fabric and blouses. For some reason, my breasts do not fill all of the pointy part in the front, so there is a little wrinkling of the bra fabric, but that doesn't show under the heavier fabrics (like my ribbed turtlenecks). I'm going to try one of the seamless lift bras before I buy a second of the Retro Chic.
