I was looking forward to getting this bra but have not been impressed. I was hoping having taken measurements it would have fit perfect, however, it fit a little tight, and does not provide any support.

Had to send back because was too small and tight compared to same size in underwire. Back was much narrower also. Wish there were 3 hooks instead of 2.

This bra was perfect initally, but the band stretched too fast. Within 2 weeks I went from wearing on the loosest to the tightest hooks/eyes. Now the band creeps up my back on the tighest and the weight of my chest pulls the bra down. I'm a 36DD and sagging. The bra is only flattering if I adjust it. It's very comfortable but perhaps meant for smaller sizes. I wish there was some rubber backing on the back of the band to keep it in place. Then maybe it wouldn't move and I would look more supported.

When I first put this bra on I thought I had finally found a comfortable bra. The comfort didn't last long. After a short period of time, one of the side stays started to dig in relentlessly. I was very disappointed and thought "another bra bites the dust." Eventually, I realized that with the help of a cuticle scissors, I could snip a minute hole and pull the stays out with a tweezer. It is now the most comfortable bra I own. I'm sure that the tiny hole will shorten the lifespan of the bra but at least it isn't in the Good Will bag...yet!

This bra seemed to fit me well. It was comfortable. For about 30 minutes. Of course the tags were off by then. I wore it all day and couldn't wait to get it off. Something in the back dug into my skin, not matter how much I tried to make sure everything was smoothed down. So many people love this bra and I just felt sad that I wasted so much money. I tired again to wear it, which was foolish. It just doesn't work for me. Two stars because it seems good quality and I do wish it had worked.

I ordered a 32D which is the size I wear in every other brand. The band was really tight on the loosest hooks, and the cups were too small. The fabric is SO soft though.

The fabric is great. Color (discontinued) is great. I ordered this one because I'd like to get away from uncomfortable underwires. But this one has stays on both sides. Most uncomfortable. So much that I cannot wear it. I need to send it back.

Did not like the fit of this bra. Seemed to be well made but just not the right fit- didn't care for the straps

I wish this bra fit because the fabric is deliciously soft and comfortable but the B cup was ridiculously big, to the point that I wonder if it was a mislabeled D or greater, but the 40 isn’t available in anything bigger than B. At least I got a good laugh when I tried it on.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
I love Wacoal bras in general. This one just had a weird shape for me. I am not well endowed. The cups are molded and have a lot up top. Pretty comfortable. The style was also meh. I sent it back. I'm 5'9" and change, 170ish#, size 8-12 depending on the item, 34D-DD, and have had two kids. Try it if you're feeling perky!

This bra is really comfortable at first, but sadly I found them to be very unsupportive after a day or two of wear -- by the end of the day they were totally sagging and all creased up at the bottom. They might work for someone less busty, but not for my 30D :/ Zappos customer service was awesome as always and worked with me to return them anyways, so win for Zappos!

I really wanted to like this bra, and am a long-time Wacoal wearer (Basic Beauty Contour Non-Wire Bra). This style was a big disappointment. Buying the style in the size I usually wear (34B), I could not adjust the straps tightly enough to keep the straps from slipping off my shoulders. The hooks in the back dug into my back, and the flap that is supposed to cover the hooks wouldn't stay down. I tried it twice, hoping it was simply a defect, but had the same experience with both.

there's no support, there's plastic boning sewn into the sides that dig into your ribs, and the straps aren't too strong. since i already washed and took off the tags (because i thought the bra was perfect when i tried it on), i decided to cut out the plastic strips. it feels much better, but if you have to do surgery on a bra to make it not hurt, it's not a good bra. really disappointed

The size could not have been as labeled. I bought this bra in a size 36C at a store a few days before ordering the size 36D online. This 36D bra fits much tighter than the 36C. It's actually too tight. I have purchased several Wacoal bras in sizes 34 and 36 over the year and never had one fit so tight.

I thought I'd love this bra. The side boninh (whoever thought of this must be a sadist) bore into my ribcage and left sores. Since I'd already worn I took a scissors to these expensive bras and removed what looks like a man's collar stay. We will see how this works or in the wastebasket to try another

not a fan of this one. Not enough support. Now, for someone with itsy bitsies, this may be a fine bra, but not for a 36/38DDD. Not enough support

Have ordered these bras for years. On my most recent order I was disappointed to find all 3 bras with the CUP size a full size smaller altho the label reads what I usually wear. Hmmmm

I loved these bras but am very disappointed that one of the clasps broke rendering it useless. I’ve never had a bra snap break. I won’t be buying this again.
