My shape: even fullness, pendulous, center full with short and average/narrow roots. I currently consider my size to be 28FF.

Overall, I wear this bra because it is comfortable, and because my breasts don't fall out of it, lol. Because of my pendulous breasts, I need a LOT of immediate projection, which this bra does not offer. If your breasts are more shallow and not pendulous, I would actually recommend this bra if it is in your size range. It is very soft and comfortable and the look of it is cute and simple. A good "t-shirt" bra if you don't mind your nipples showing through every now and then https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />.

My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.

I hoping this bra from Aerie would work because of its awesome price! Unfortunately it doesn't. I love the unlined look, but the cups came up super high, definitely fuller coverage. I did have a few wrinkles at the top portion. The cups were too separated for me (the gore is too wide for me). The gore is 1" (or 2.5 cm) separation at the top, but the bottom of the gore is much wider, so it sits on my breasts.

My daily go-to bra was the DKNY 453200 Fusion TShirt bra in 32DD, which has been discontinued [ boooo >https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> ]; this bra is a solidly decent replacement in both fit and comfort. I went into the Aerie store on a lark (aka went to the mall for the A/C) and was unable to find my usual size of 32DD in any style, so I tried the 32DDD, in nude as that was the only color in that size and who doesn't need another nude bra... The cups fit very similarly to the DKNY 32DD, though the wires ... at the outer top of the cup hit about 1/2" further back into my armpits. Because of this I don't think I fully fill the top of the cup most of the time, but only by a negligible amount, and at no loss of comfort other than it's different than what I've been wearing for the last 3 years.
The gore tacks comfortably, the straps aren't too far apart, and adjust short enough for me. The material is very comfortable and it has quite a wide band which sits perfectly. Just based on the way it fits now, I'm sure I would get quadboobing from a 32DD.
Since I *just* bought this, I'll adjust the review after I've taken it around the block a few times, but so far feels like a pretty good fit. They have a lot of color options for this bra, presumably online and not in-store, but I love that you're not relegated to black or nude for a tshirt bra.

*EDIT* after a couple years - this one is still holding up, though I don't wear it too often. The fit above is still accurate and it's objectively comfortable, but I think I wear it a lot less due to the wideness of the wires under the arms. It's not at all a bust for the price, it just doesn't fit how I need it to to be a favorite, I have yet to try other sizes.

I bought this bra ages and ages ago, and I haven't gotten rid of it only because it's so sensible and smooth, the straps cross in the back, and it's the only plain black bra I own. It doesn't fit that well, and I rarely wear it out. The molded shape combined with the lack of underwire means that I slip around (if I lay down sideways, the top boob always escapes into the center). The cups are far too wide and flatten me sideways in an unflattering way. If your boobs are much shallower or wrap around under your arms more, or if you enjoy having your boobs spread across across your chest instead of separated and forward-facing, then this bra might be a good choice. Despite the numerous fit issues, it persists in my closet. One of life's little mysteries, I suppose.

It's a bra for days where I've given up. I don't fill out the cups completely since they come up so high, but sizing down would probably not fit. The issue is helped with a strap clip, which brings the straps closer together and the top of the cup more flush with my body. The band is disintegrating after years of wear but still has enough support to use occasionally. The construction is soft, the fabric is silky and cooling, and the texture is very smooth under shirts. Doesn't do the best job of concealing nips since the cups are so lightly padded, but that's not what I use it for anyway.

I'll be honest, up until I got my Comexim Ardea, this was my cleavage bra. I still wear it on occasion because it does give a nice lift.

It is definitely too small for me in the cup. However the band is actually a pretty good fit, despite being a 32. Another Aerie band that runs tight, I suppose.

Now my biggest issue with this bra isn't the fit of the cups, it is the dumb mesh that is connect to the straps. As shown in the pictures, if I wear the straps as intended the mesh is pretty flush with my body, but they're about to fall ... off my shoulders, way too wide for me. However, if I wear the straps where they feel comfortable, the mesh gets extremely wrinkly and looks awful. Maybe this would work better for someone with tall roots and wide shoulders? I'm not sure, but it definitely doesn't work for me.

The one kind of positive and negative about this bra is the firm padding. It's nice because most American push ups, my breasts laugh at and push down, due to my immediate projection. This one actually can combat the immediate projection and look smooth. The down side is that while the immediate projection doesn't cause visible issues, I can definitely feel my breasts trying to push the padding down and this causes the wires to feel pretty uncomfortable. It's fine for when I want to wear it for a day to have nice cleavage, but this could never be an everyday bra for me, even in the proper size.

First things first, this bra is a cup size too small for me now, due to gaining muscle and losing some fat.

Regardless of the size being off now, I cannot believe I ever wore this bra. Despite being wireless, it is more painful on my ribs than any wired bra I own. The seams on the side of the cup press into my ribs so hard. Now, one thing to keep in mind is that at the time I was probably pulling the band out of my IMF to make room, since the cups were folding. At the time of buying this bra, I had not very realized I was immediately projected. I thought I was shallow because I had self supporting breasts. Classic rookie mistake.

As you can see, wearing this in the IMF shows how shallow this bra actually is. Even if I was wearing this bra in a cup size up, there's not way it would have enough depth at the wire for me. I'm sure this would work great for someone shallow though.

My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.

Really wanted this bra to fit. It has a beautiful light lavender color and it's got super smooth fabric. However, this bra was a horrendous fit for me. Way shallow, I got mega quadding along the top seams, like my breasts couldn't "breathe." This is a full cup, so it's very modest which can be nice if you want to cover up. The gore on this bra was a pain, it is so separate and sat on my breasts way too much. Nonetheless, this bra was actually the one that made me realize I need shorter gores/slim gores which was a huge plus in my bra search.

This bra will work for you if you're shallow and have lots of space between your breasts at the center.

This bra is ultra-comfortable and works surprisingly well for my shape. I’m projected, very slightly full on top, center full, close set, narrow roots, and slightly tall roots. This bra is a little shallow for me, the wires are much too wide, and the band is too loose. Still, I fill the cups with minimal quadboob, it’s not totally unsupportive, and I love wearing it around the house. If this bra came in 30FF or 28G I’d be in heaven.

It does stretch out very quickly. After 2 months, the stretched band length is 35” (pretty bad for a 32DDD). It’s also showing signs of losing its shape already, so the quality isn’t the greatest. What it has going for it is looks: the lace detail is pretty but not uncomfortable at all, there’s a cute bow, and it’s a nice but subtle shade of light blue.

I have tried this bra and the Demi from Aerie's Happy line. This bra is really comfortable but I prefer the Demi version - I feel like this one is a small fit for the size. I also find the straps are not super practical (I wear a lot of spaghetti strap tank tops)

It's still a comfortable bra, but not my most favourite.

So far have only tried this on briefly, but I really like it. Aerie advertises this bra as having the comfort of a bralette, but with more structure. I definitely agree with that statement! This bra is very comfortable and I didn't want to take it off. Really glad they started selling these in DDD!


My only negative about this bra is I get some slight, slight quadding. So if you are very full on top this may not be the bra for you. I do find it runs slightly small in the cup as well but that is not a huge deal for me

Very pretty but the wires in Bridget are too wide for me! Not too bad for a few hours but starts to be uncomfortable throughout the day.

I liked how this fit a lot, but the cups were too tall for me and dug into my tail of spence - this seems to be a trend for me for Aerie racerbacks, and was a problem with this one because of embroidery on it. I'm going to try this model on a non racerback and I think it will fit great for me.

Not a 1-00% perfect fit, but a great fit for being on a budget and needing to replace all of my bras. This and the Blakely are my favourite from Aerie in this size range

Updated on Mar 16, 2017 Flag this

This was an alright bra for me. At times the side wires dug into my ribcage and it was a bit painful, but it wasn't an all day thing. Otheriwse it was comfortable and fit well.

Updated on Mar 14, 2017 Flag this

The fit on this one is not as good as Blakely, for me, but is still acceptable - the cups aren't too wide to the point that they're uncomfortable, and the material the bra is made out if is so soft and comfy.

I've recently been resized and Aerie was one of the first places I tried to find new bras due to price and availability where I am. This is my favourite of all of the styles they have available in my size - I'm short and short waisted, and the cups are narrow enough that nothing digs in anywhere it shouldn't.

My only negative comment is the shape is a little pointier than I would like, but I can definitely live with that


Summary: Good fit for the price
