Retro Chic is a great bra with amazing support and perfect fit! Tacks perfectly in front and the bra is pretty. Only major drawback is that the seams show under clothing and cant be worn with t-shirts or thinner sweaters or dresses. The seams are too prominent through clothes but other than that, it is terrific!

This bra is so comfortable and light. Great support. My only issue is necklines must be high to not show the bra. I wish it was lower cut.

It was comfortable from the first time I put it on. At the same time it gave me very good support and the fit was perfect. And, it is SO PRETTY. I almost felt like singing "I Feel Pretty" from "West Side Story".

Ever since I started using the Wacoal bras 3 years ago, my figure is improved with this nicely fitted support.

This is the first bra I've ever had that really feels like it fits. I feel confident and covered but still sexy. I'm beyond happy with this bra but the underwire does get a little uncomfortable after a long day.

This is my favorite bra. Depending on weight, I range from 34DDD to 36. I love the shape this style gives. It is supportive for activity and comfortable enough for everyday. It is full coverage so it comes high, but I prefer to not wear shirts that would be a problem anyway. This is the only style I have found that frees me from experiencing that horrid pinched nerve from poor support. I will be miserable if they discontinue it.

As I gained weight, I kept enlarging the band size until a fitter in the department store measured my rib cage and told me I should be wearing a 36H rather than a 40 DD. When standing, the bra fits perfectly, but when sitting, the band feels a little tight and causes me to cough. Probably should have ordered a 38H, then the band and the cup would be more comfortable. I'm thinking of ordering one, just to see. Love this style as it supports me just as the styles of the 50's did!

This is a good all around bra. It has great support and is fairly comfortable, although the band seems a little tighter than many of my other bras. The lace and seams do not make it a great match with thin fabrics or t-shirts. Also, I have somewhat lopsided breasts and the lace fabric has no stretch or forgiveness, so while one breast has great coverage, the smaller side has a little gap. I wear a 34 DD. I got the heather pink, which is very attractive and doesn't show under light colored materials, which is a benefit over several of my other bras. I wouldn't be unhappy getting this bra again, but I would probably be tempted to try a slightly different style.

I like the look of this bra. It does start to feel a little tight at the end of the day in the band

I love this bra! I only wish that Wacoal carried larger sizes. I used a bra extender and it fits just right. The bra is comfortable and pretty which is unusual usually in larger sized bras.

This is the best supporting bra -- and cute too! The band can be a bit rough on the skin, but I have yet to find a bra that can support, be 100% comfortable and look good. Suffer to be beautiful.

I have this bra and would buy a second and third. "Retro" sort of means matronly in this case and it's not particularly sexy. BUT: It fits great (I'm a 32DD and hard to fit) and gives a nice youthful lift. Looks great when you are dressed.

I love the feel and fit of these! They provide a little lift and they are very comfortable to wear, even though, st first glance, you wonder if they will be.

This is my favorite bra and the only one I buy. I love the fit and the look, but the toast color is depressing. Wish they would bring back ivory.

While bra was basically a good fit, it did to fit comfortably around my back so I had to purchase a bra extender ..
