Customer Reviews Wacoal Ultimate Side Smoother Wireless Contour 852281

I loved the feel of the bra but it was too tight. I did the band size check and it said 38 but I think I need a 40 or 42 but the bra came beautifully packaged and was easy to return I love Wacoal so I will order a larger size.

Looks nice under shirts but runs a little big.

I like this bra because it has no underwire, and it really is very flattering. But I did not realize that it is actually a molded bra. I prefer my bras in softer material. Because of this I just may have to send it back.

I gave 3 stars because I did not like how it fit me. I ordered my regular size, but perhaps because it is a wirefree bra, I felt like it was too wide for my shape.

I was hoping that this bra was going to be a favorite, but I was a bit disappointed. The bra fits well but didn't do any of the side smoothing that was claimed. It basically fit me like most bras I have. I wanted the side smoothing and more lift. I got neither but I kept the bra because what woman couldn't use another T-Shirt bra.

The front support is amazing but I bought this for side smoother and the fabric is not doing anything and just tucks under and does nothing for side. Disappointing as picture looks like it would work

I have underwire version of this bra but was hoping I could wear a wireless style. I couldn't fit in my regular size so I returned it. I would have to experiment to figure out the correct size for me in this style.

The one thing I didn't like was the extra fabric under the arm, but I guess that is the whole point!

Used "Find Your Fit" to get size. WAY OFF! I wanted to try a wire-free bra, this seemed like the perfect choice. Size was too small everywhere and the lack of underworld makes me look like I have a mono boob. Struggling with Wacoal sizing and I'm a 25 year customer.

Does smooth the side somewhat but if you have even a small stomach the front rolls up

Sorry but not crazy about the fit.

Thought this bra would provide great coverage and support. Too much "bubble over"!

I ordered this bra last week, it arrived in a couple days, I was so anxious to try it on because I was going to wear it under a form fitting dress. I am a size 40-D; the size was fine, it was the lack of support and the fact that it was poorly built that I found to be unacceptable.. I have full breast, unfortunate this did not do anything to provide support up front, on the side or the back, I need to return it. Maybe I am not the right body type. Normally i am very pleased with Wacoal's bras.

When I purchased I didn't realized it had side stays. I was bruised after the first day of wearing it. I took the stays out and it is much better.

The fancy side panel was too flimsy to be effective. The regular full coverage bra does a better job.

Cups were very supportive & comfortable but the band size runs very small. Had to return

I'm used to my bras being a little tighter around my midriff. Also don't like the thick cups. Maybe I'll grow to like it the more I wear it.

I read the other reviews and wanted to give this model a try. It's basically a molded-cup t-shirt bra with the addition of mesh "wings" that come up under the arms and around the back, as is clear on the model. The mesh isn't very stretchy and is likely to get stained by deodorant that isn't clear.

I purchased the "consultant recommended size" (which is the same size as other Wacoal bras I own) .... it's tighter and doesn't give shape - it really just flattens my breasts. Sadly - Not something I'll wear.

Fit maybe should have gone up one size but the sides actually hurt. can’t return since I wore. I like their wire bars much better

Band size 38, my normal size, barely hooked together, and affects the overall fit. Consider ordering one band-size up. Saw another review that recommended the same thing. Looks good under my clothes. Feels stiff, and hoping it will soften, and maybe loosen up after a few launderings

Liked the design features, but the fit under arms was too loose.

I think the price is a bit over the top, I must say that the bras last and wear well, so still a better option than many competitors. More colour options would also be appreciated.

SORRY BUT THIS BRA WAS SO UNCOMFORTABLE. FIRST WACOAL BRA THAT DIDN;T FEEL RIGHT. SENT IT BACK.

I depend on Wacoal. When our local department store did not have the Wacoal style that I wanted, I turned to Zappos. I have never ordered a bra online, and I don't think I would again -- unless I knew EXACTLY the size and style number that I needed. The fit and size were seemed a bit smaller than other Wacoal bras that I have worn for years (my weight and body shape has not changed much in the past few years). The bra padding and contour is "just right" for lower cut dresses/shirts, and for "modesty" wearing under, for instance, a t-shirt. However, I returned the bra for 2 reasons: (1) I wanted to try other sizes because the size I ordered (36B) was a bit snug; (2) the sides of the bra have a higher cut "mesh" fabric that instantly irritated my skin. I really wanted to keep this bra -- it is nice -- but the mesh fabric is contiguous with padding and around to the fasteners in the back so it cannot be cut off. I gave the "comfort" rating 2 stars based solely on my experience with the side mesh panels that are too large (high) around my sides. My conclusion is that I cannot order bras online unless I know exactly the model, style number, and size I want -- and have tried it on in a store. So, if you have a VERY FAVORITE bra and think you want a second one, then ordering online would likely be a safe bet.
