Customer Reviews Vanity Fair Beauty Back Smoothing Minimizer Bra (36C-42H)

I don't normally wear this brand, but I am pleasantly surprised. Good fit and comfortable. Nice fabric, good texture. I will definitely purchase this brand again.

I love the fit and the fabric is so comfortable. I am still finding myself " bouncing" slightly. Maybe I need to adjust the straps and make the band tighter. Otherwise, it's a well designed bra.

padding -very slight-would be a real help in the fit of the bras. It could be a removable very light padding.

Not as padded as thought but the bra is true to sixe

I've been wearing this style bra for several years but more recently I've been having to buy more often due to the underwire poking through. I just bought 2 and I feel like I'm being poked in the armpit already. This is the 2nd time I've worn this one. But overall they're very comfortable, great support and coverage without a super wide back.

I really like this bra, but I can't find the correct band size. I usually wear a 40DDD, but it was huge! So I tried a 38G. The cup size was perfect, but the band was still enormous. Then I tried a 36G, which was too tight around the chest though the cup fit. I'm very disappointed because the cup is comfortable and I have a very difficult time finding a bra that fits. If I was able to find t correct fit, I would give this bra 5 stars.

Okay so i have some big girls and have a very hard time finding bras. i have spent a small fortune on very expensive bra's and they basically are very uncomfortable. I was skeptical about this bra but once i tried it on i was pleasantly surpirsed. It fit rather good held my girls and hid my back fat. I will say the sides a re little high for me I am very short waisted but i can deal with it. I wore it around the house a few hours for two days and it is 80% comfortable. Also minimized them without having that smashed down look. All in all i recommend this bra.

This bra is a good everyday bra. It stands up to my daily routine without bunching, digging or pinching my skin and sides/shoulders. The wide straps and band keep it firmly in place and the underwire provided great support all day without pain. I especially liked how it looked when I wore it with a t-shirt, as it smoothed out my side fat while keeping my boobs looking great.

I want more of this style bra in lots of colors! I usually hate under wires, they dig, scratch, pinch, break....I have been buying torrid bras, but the fit still isn't quite right. This one sits the way it's supposed to, the size is right, as opposed to other brands, where I have to go up sizes and cups and they still aren't right. The underwire didn't irritate. I wore this all day at work, and forgot I still had I on after getting home! I usually take bras off as soon as I get home. This washed well, held its shape, the fabric didn't snag or look cheap. I really am impressed and plan on buying more!

Loved the fit. No pinching or poking. Very soft fabric.

I really like this bra! It does minimize and I was skeptical of that claim. Sometimes you just want a more modest look. The straps stay in place, which I love. Who wants to keep messing with loose or falling bra straps all day? Not me. A very good, comfortable bra to try for anyone looking for that, which who isn't? Quite pleased. Also seems true to size.

You will have to buy a larger size as they tend to run small. They are good quality. They didn't fit so I gave them to my granddaughter. She loves them. Next time there is a sale I will try a larger size.

I got the 36DD first, the 34DD was out of stock everywhere. The 36 band size was about an inch too big, so bought the 34 when it came back in stock. Was really disappointed with band size difference. The 34 is a lot smaller band length and only has a 2 clasp closure. The 36 has 3. Was hoping the 34 would be perfect for me, since the 36 was almost perfect. Would not buy another.

I am not in favor of stretch straps . When you are a DDD they do not support enough

More colors is bigger sizes, 38 DDD could use red, purple, green, orange...

The bra is made for someone who is very broad across the shoulders. Although I have broad shoulders myself, the bra is too wide for me. If I could place the cups slightly closer together, it would be a better fit for me.

I have bought bra before, and loved it. I was a little disappointed in the sizing this time. I felt a bit stuffed into the DD cups. I haven't grown. All my other bras fit perfectly.

I was excited when I discovered this bra comes in 36DDD because my other Vanity Fair bra is a 36DD and my boobs spill out of the front of the cups. When I tried on this bra in the 36DDD, I was happy that my boobs didn't spill out of the front of my bra, but I was disappointed that the sides dug into my armpit. This was so uncomfortable that I can't wear this bra. The wires were also too wide, and they bent in under my breasts. Please fix the fit of your 36DDD size.

I am short... 5ft tall. With the straps extended as long as they will go, the underwires poke me in the armpits. The band, side support & cups are great... just those darn wires make this uncomfortable. I have yet to find a "no wire" bra that gives enough support & the band doesn't roll. Bras are way too expensive to buy, wear for a day, wash and wear again, to find you never want to wear it again!

not true to size. very tight fit. I usually wear a 40 but bought a size larger just in case and it does not fit. very uncomfortable. I need to lose about 20 lbs. before I can wear it., but not your fault.

would like a lower back..this one is too high to be totally comfortable.

Loved it except the underwire did not lay flat on my chest !!!!!!! Either a size down or a size up !

I always order your padded bra and I received the non padded bra in the same style as I usually order. Picture was deceiving! I am home bound with a cancer patient so was too difficult to return Very disappointing.

My first VF order was for bras #75298-36D. I was very pleased so I ordered 2 more bras, #76080-36D. The first bras I connect at the third clasp. The second order (76080) I connect at the widest clasp and it is so tight it binds me. Why is there a difference in sizes? I like both bras but the 76080 is just too tight.

Didn't fit. The evaluation was way off. I had to send them back. I wear a 44DDD. I should have just order them instead of going off the evaluation.
