In my opinion, they run small. Nice fabric and great colors.

While the bra looks good, it is not comfortable because the lower part is too wide. I should have gotten a size up as it is quite tight. I do not like any bra with 4 closing hooks. (too bulky) Was afraid to go up a size for fear of adding another closing hook.

The band size runs small on this style and it's tight. Now I have to wait to wear it when I lose weight possible another year from now. The bra will sit in my closet until I can wear it comfortably.

The bra is GREAT. I hate the fact that your sizes suck.

This bra is true to size and very lovely but the straps are too stretchy. Not enough support from staps

Well, you will stand/sit up straighter because if you slouch the stiff lower end corner of the front closure will dig into your solar plexus. I measured carefully and went with the recommended size but cup is a bit too full so it wrinkles. Need to try them on in a store first to make sure recommended size fits. The side strips along the lower outer cup area do help a little but not as much as I would like.

Overall I like the ease of putting the bra on, however, I bought one in each color and they fit like I am porridge in Goldilocks. The white bra has an appropriate about of give to be able to stretch it just enough to get fastened. The black on has less give or stretch to it and it harder to get on. The beige bra has zero give and really hard to fasten since there is no give. Being a front closure bra you do not get the luxury of 3 options on how the hooks are placed, so some give in the elastic or bra is necessary to make it easy to hook. So I gave 3 stars out of 5 because of the lack of consistency in how they are manufactured. We should be able to rely on each bra to fit the same.

They are not true to size. I ordered the size that I always wear and they were too big. I will be returning the bras. Also only order if got like the "cone look". Giving them three stars because they seems to be made well so if you like the look and you get the correct size I believe they will last.

Beautiful bra and there's no doubt about that, but it is very uncomfortable for the full figured woman. The straps are wide but they cut into the shoulders and the plastic loop on the back cuts into flesh. I love it but there is no way to wear this garment any longer than necessary. This is one of those bras that one wears because they have to but there is not any comfort in the shoulders and back. I have scars on my back now from wearing it for only 5 hours. I could not stand it any longer and took it off as soon as I could.

I found to be very comfortable but not lax on support if you are large busted.

I was a bit disappointed because the size had changed from the last ones I purchased. These are running smaller so I will have to buy extenders to make it easier to put on. The older you get the less flexible your hands get so with the smaller sizing it is harder. The last ones fit perfectly and these fit more like the 40C I first purchased instead of my last order of the 42C.

Material is nice but this bra is not full coverage, so not enough support or coverage for larger breast.

Had the bras shipped twice becauce a c cup was so big thought maybe tagged wrong on first ones but second ones were the same way. Maybe a 50 c is not the right way to order. Dont know what to do now

Decided to purchase this style because I needed a navy bra. I do normally wear Playtex 18 Hour bras but a different style. Its ok. The material is very stiff. I even washed it 2 times before wearing it and still stiff. I also ordered a band size larger than I usually wear due to the reviews stating it runs small and yes it does...even thou I ordered a larger size. I did order a total of 3 of this style because they were on sale, but I will be sticking to my usual style for future purchases.

This is an odd fitting bra for my very plus figure. I bought it for working in the garden, so it's good enough. But I think they possibly just size up using a formula of some sort instead of looking at a larger woman's body. The cups are, in my opinion, too long. This the bottom kind of rolls up. Now, I'm one of those old ladies who 'ears hang low' so you'd think this would work, but no. Anyway, I'd say it's true to size in circumference. It is sewn well and not uncomfortable. Three stars is appropriate.

I have worn Playtex 18 hour bras for years and can say that they are a very well-made and relatively comfortable for large, large-breasted women. My complaint with my last order is with the sizing. I went up a size, wanting more looseness in the band. The problem is that the entire bra gets larger, including the distance the shoulder straps are apart. My shoulders have not gotten further apart, thus the straps continually fall off the sides of my shoulders. This is making the bras unwearable.

The bra lifts your breast up to much. My breast felt like they were almost at my neck

It's comfortable but the shape is unnatural. It might look okay under sweaters.

I wish I had a better fit with this bra. I am a full figured woman and the 18 hour bra does not give me the lift I need and it gaps a little on the sides. I have had to buy this bra for years because I haven't be able to find another bra. Also the bra wears out in a couple of months and collects beads of lint along the elastic edges of the bra.

The sizing is waaaaay off. Had to order up from a 44 to 48, which caused cups to be big.
