Customer Reviews Wacoal Ultimate Side Smoother Bra 853281

This bra is so comfortable and flattering. Its smoothing under the arms and back and looks good under all different types of shirts.

Returned bra. Did not smooth the sides. Sides stuck out terrible.

Just got this in Sparrow and I have to say it was immediately my favorite bra!!! Ordering every color now.

Beautiful color - eggplant; the sheer fabric on the sides & back is stiff & scratchy - like tulle. The fit is true to size. The straps have no elastic in them - & while they are adjustable, they slide off your shoulders constantly. I prefer the back smoother tshirt bra.

My favorite bra. I have been wearing this bra for quite a few years. I have it in a few colors.

My selection in a side support Wacoal bra is a bit uncomfortable bi would like a side support in a more comfortable fabric

Hate it! I tried it on for fit and it fit so I took the tags off. My the end of the day, I was in so much pain I couldnt wait to take it off. I called Wacoal to ask if I could return it for another style and I was told no. Please save your money-this is not as comfortable as my other Wacoal bras. PS-Ive been a local customer for over 20 years now!

The best fitting bra ever. I have narrow shoulders and having the back straps more centered helps to keep the straps from falling down. Whoever engineered this found a solution to pull the cups in the right direction so that they are totally filled. However I would prefer less slippery straps.

Fit is excellent. Ordered 34DDD and I am usually a 34DD. However, I received a navy blue bra, rather than the Eclipse color I ordered. (That’s your mess up- Zappos.)

Fit is small compared to other Wacoal bras. Side smoothing fabric is too sheer, doesn't smooth anything. Overall fit is okay, but not a bra I will wear unless ALL my other bras are in the wash.

Fits a little funny under arms, possibly need to order a size larger. Returning.

The bra itself fits good but the straps are always sliding down. I have to pull them up repeatedly during the day.

I really wanted to like this bra, but unfortunately it seemed larger than the stated size. It just didn't fit me.

But it didn't fit right, but Wacoal was very good about refunding my investment for a store credit. Its a Quality garment, but didn't fit my body type.

I purchased this bra a while back and it quickly became my least favorite. The mesh type material used for the side and back is very irritating to my skin. It also digs into my rib cage no matter how I adjust the straps. I have other Wacoal bras that are great but this one missed the mark for me.

Long/wide under the underwire. If you have a long torso this might work.

I've been a long time Wacoal 40D - this bra was four inches too short to fasten in the back. Bakcto Zappos it goes.

The fit was good but did not like the mesh sides. It did nothing but bunch up wouldn't stay in place. Was expecting more spandex for side support. Returned.

This bra is very supportive and the red is so fun! I wish it came up a little further to smooth out right below the arm pit.

Straps don't stay up well

The straps slide off my shoulders all the time, and they aren't very comfortable. They feel like they are cutting into my shoulders.

This bra was okay. The "side smoothing" fabric on the sides is softer than I expected and does little to contain spillage on the sides, but I suppose it may appear smoother under clothes. The fabric seemed delicate and I would be concerned about durability. The cups were comfortable and smooth underneath clothes, but I felt like they were spaced too far apart and pointing outwards at strange angles. In short, I'm returning it.

It is great if you just need a bra that will do the job of a bra with no frills like keeping the girls in and supported. However I would not say this is for low cut tops or v-necks. There is no cleavage and the bra comes up very high on my chest. This is a basic bra but the smoothing back feature feels very nice.

Not as side smoothing as I expected

The band on this runs smaller than my other wacoal bras. It's supposed to smooth back and side fat, but instead the v-shaped panels roll down and the side fat is even worse. Would not recommend.
