I have sensitive skin and can't wear bras with a lot of decoration for long. The Spanx Bra-llelujah bras are like heaven to me with the hosiery straps and back. Unfortunately, they are too big for my 28" ribcage! But I have persisted in wearing them anyway as I haven't been able to find anything else I can wear all day long nearly as comfortably. Having discovered correct bra fitting technique thanks to this site and others, I have figured out that my other Spanx bras (32 B's and C's) are not only too big in the back but also too small in the ... cup, which was making them slide around even more than they would if the only problem was the back being a little loose.

So, decided to pick up one of the new Soft Touch ones in a 32D to try out. I must say, it feels wonderful. The back and straps are made out of the same hosiery fabric as the original Bra-llelujahs, but the cups are made of a new cottony-feeling microfiber. I don't think the new fabric adds much to the bra, but the D cup is much more comfortable for me as it is encasing my entire wide, shallow breasts. The back of the bra is very soft and stretchy (will wear out quickly) and my breasts don't fill out the top of the D cups, but it's the most comfortable bra I own so I will likely continue to wear it.
