Customer Reviews Bali All Around Smoothing Underwire Bra

I purchased this bra in 40DD and when it came in the mail, I was surprised that what others described as "lightly lined" I would definitely consider "lightly padded". I didn't want padding; I've already got enough going on. However I put it on today and I am really pleased at how comfortable it is. The padding isn't enough to force a weird shape on my boobs, and the sides are nice and wide and hold everything in PLUS the underwire doesn't poke into my armpit like other bras I've had with wide sides. The 40DD has the 4 hooks in the back that really help with support. Despite the padding I plan to order more.

This is my most favorite bra ever. I have so many of them. I love the colors, the way it fits, the comfort, BUT...EVERY SINGLE ONE comes apart in the very same areas. I still keep buying them because you know when you find a bra you like, you stick with it, but I would love for them to maybe take a look on adding extra stitching to maybe improve the integrity of the bra and lengthen its life span.

The quality of the bras have changed in the last 5 years which is disappointing. The material for an identical bra style # was much softer and thicker, feeling like it would last longer 5 years ago than it does today. It's a bit disappointing to see the quality change but if on sale, the price is fitting. I would not pay full price for this bra today however. Size is pretty much true but if you're on the first hook of a 36 band, a 34 will be a bit tight and will alter the cup sizing to run smaller. I really like Bali otherwise and hope they return to using better materials.

Bra is comfortable but not smoothing

It's OK. It is hard to fasten. Heavier than I had hoped. Do not like the color.

I've been wearing this bra for years and the last time I ordered them (3) they are falling apart at the seams. Instead of being sewn at the seams under the arms it looks like seam tape was used.

Im was very happy to find my favorite Bali bra for such a great price. I have worn this style, among others, for many years (36 C). Puzzled me to see reviews, were the bra has come apart at the seams. Checked out one of my older T-shirt bras against the present model. There is no more sewing at the top of the cups, as well as the top of the back. The outer fabric is FUSED to the lining fabric. Although I always launder my bras in a net bag, not sure how they will hold up in the future... Meant to order 3 more bras, now I'm very reluctant. The fit is still great, the quality definitely not the same. Shortcuts, most of the time, don't produce a better product. Would recommend this bra with reservations.

I have worn this style and this style only for years! It's so comfortable, and I love the available colors and patterns. However, the quality has gone downhill fast. They do not last long at all anymore. All of the ones I've bought in the last year or so are coming apart at the seams. So disappointing, and I'm going to have to find an alternative.

I love this bra style and have been buying them from a retail store for several years and was so happy to see them listed on the site. Unfortunately, the quality of the bra I bought from the site are not the same as the retail store.

I can't wear this as where the cup meets the strap in the front, the bra digs into my skin causing discomfort and pain. Can't wear for more than 3 hrs. or it's unbearable. I'm sure this is something to do with body type but someone should be able to make a bra that doesn't dig in this area.

I Bought 2 42 D Cup size was good . They were lacking in about 1 inch in bands. Very tight.

Very smooth and good fit. Has been favorite bra for a while.

The fabric is still good quality. The underwires don't go from seam to seam, so the ends dig in.

I really like the fit of this bra with one big exception. The straps are ALWAYS sliding off my shoulders. I think maybe they are too far apart/too wide? I have worn this style bra for a few years, buying new sizes as my body changes, and without fail, the straps do not stay up. I have tried making them tighter, making them looser, making the band tighter/looser. I do not have this issue with other bras. Other than that, I do really like this bra, I'm just constantly pulling the straps up which is annoying.

Okay quality. One of the straps on the front where sew to the bra is very rough. It leaves a mark on my skin. Bali has had better workmanship in the past.

I am 34 D. The cups or this bra do not lie on the skin and leave a pucker near the cleavage which shows in your clothing. The straps cannot be pulled tight enough over the shoulders.

Underwire covering rolls to the outside under cups. Worn this bra for. years and loved it up until my last order in October 2023. Has always been very comfortable but now I have to tuck the roll out under to wear it but it still doesnt stay put. If this problem isn't resolved, regretfully, I will have to look elsewhere for a different bra

I have been wearing this style for years and have never had any problems with them. I recently purchased 10 new ones. All of them are coming apart at the cup seams.

My daughter loves these bras but they don't last. We try to wash in a laundry bag and they still rip apart at the cup area. They are very comfortable but if they are going to come undone after 2-3 washes then they are not worth it. They use a glue instead of a stitch to hold the outer layer to the base part of the bra. When heated up it simply falls apart. I will be moving to another company. Bummer.

Do not wash in hot water the ironed seams come undone and ruins them.

Not smoothing in the back. Comfortable but did not like the overhang it showed on the back and sides. I returned the bra.

Why why why can't use put an extra little bit of padding over the tip of the underwire???? Does a f-ing man design these? I had your under wire bras that were better padded and are comfortable but I've got my sewing kit out to try to fix this one.

Not comfortable, ill fitting, will not purchase again.

I have worn this model Bali bra for years! I love the fit and coverage. However, after wearing the pink one for only a few days, the underwire on left side has been problematic! It has not punctured through the fabric, but is poking into my skin and is VERY uncomfortable! Is there any chance for a replacement?

This is my absolute favorite bra; however, the last four to five I've purchased have came apart at the outer cup. It does not appear to be sewn but maybe glued in on this edge? Have you changed the way they are put together or is something else making this happen. I want to order more but am afraid I will have the same issue and I've bought this style for years. My review of poor and not recommending is only due to this issue.
