This bra is brand new, and I actually went to the store to see when they were going to get it but, I saw it already there in limited sizes. I knew that the 34DD band would be too big but, I wanted to see what it was like in general.
This sports bra is advertised as being light support for C-E cups. The description says:
Flow on. A yoga essential, this smooth, strappy bra lends support, separation, and coverage.
Here’s the product features list from the website.
-Spacer construction in the cups for breathable coverage and shaping
-Double back crossover straps offer comfort and support
-Adjustable straps
-Straps are padded for comfort
-Hook-and-eye ... closure for a customized underband fit
I do believe that it is the same Nulu fabric that the Align leggings are made from as it was buttery soft and smooth to the touch, and it has Align in the name.
I was attracted by the bra sized hook and eye closure sizing that goes to E (not stellar or super inclusive, I know, but still better than the s/m/l styles) with a more delicate strappy back. It looked ideal for my needs.
As far as the fit, take into consideration that I am not in the correct size here. I’m well aware that I would be better in a 32E like the other bra sized sports bras that I have tried from Lululemon but, as it’s new, sizes are limited until more stock arrives in the coming weeks. I have lost 10 pounds since January so I’m currently about a 30F. My tissue is soft and pendulous and even more shallow on top than it used to be.
I’m just going to jump to the chase…I *really* like this bra! For my needs with Pilates, I need some support and it has to be comfortable. I’m not doing cardio or HIIT or anything jumping up and down so I don’t need massive support like the Panache wired sports bras or Shock Absorbers. I do a warm up standing with a roll down but, the rest is on my back on the mat and reformer. We’ve only just begun to work with all fours (it’s harder than you think it is!) so basically some containment. I don’t need to be heavily strapped down or anything. Anyway, this bra checks the boxes. Obviously, it’s better once I get a 32E.
The materials are so soft and I love the semi delicate strappy back that has somewhat adjustable straps. The cups are also sort of pre-molded to introduce a little separation. I actually have a nice rounded profile and am not as heavily compressed like some of the other ones that I have tried. I’m slightly nervous about the 32 band being too large still, as it does feel somewhat stretchy but, it will be better than the 34 for sure. I’m definitely going to wait until more sizes arrive and hope a 32E (or even 32DD possibly) come in and hopefully pick it up. I do really think that it’s an ideal bra for me and my needs. I’ll update if I can get a better size.

That looks so smooth and comfortable! Was it easy to get back off?
