  1. Secrets Full-figure Wirefree Balconette (4824)

    36DDD

    Hasn't set fit

    I am a 36DDD/36E (US/UK) with an underbust measurement of 36". The band was technically the correct length, but it was so stiff that I needed an extender to hook it behind my back. (I could hook it in the front upside down with some difficulty.) The cups are full coverage and look enormous, but they were the right size for my breasts. However, the bra had no strength without an underwire, so the gore flopped down making the cups saggy. If I pressed the gore to my sternum, the bra felt great. I returned it.

    The gore doesn't tack, and the straps do not adjust short enough for me so they're in danger of slipping off my shoulders. I have since altered this band down a couple inches as I prefer tighter-fitting bands, but I have an unaltered Over the Taupe Jacquard color of the same model and size so all measurements and fit notes were taken from there.

    UPDATE:
    I have also altered the shape of the wires to better fit me.

    - reshaped underwire curve
    - limited band stretch

    Black Jacquard colorway

    This is my hanging around the house bra. It's too big in the band, but it feels a lot firmer than other 36 bands I've worn, so it doesn't ride up the back. The cups space out my boobs quite a bit, which isn't ideal for wearing out, but it's a comfortable lounging bra!

    Everything about this bra sucks. It's sized off by about 2 cup sizes. It's ugly. The cup is so tall it practically extends to my shoulder. I'm sending it right back.
