This bra is supposed to be a 40C but the band actually measures as 36 across and 38 stretched very tightly. It runs small it is a front closure. It's adorable and the material is as soft as can be but I would not call this a good fit. The wire is uneven, the closure in the front moves around and can poke you.
The band is very stretchy. When I bought the bra in September, it fit perfectly on the last hook, but now in January it is pretty loose on the first hook. It doesn't poke. I like that the gore is shorter. I like that the straps aren't ungodly wide like some are for larger cup sizes.
Pros: This bra used to fit me. A little too much push up for me. It would work well for anyone trying to get some good cleavage that likes the VS brand. Does not poke, it stays up for most of the day and does not need some adjustments.
Cons: The underwires start to poke if you wear it all day.
VS bras are cheap, which is why I bought two colors in the Body By Victoria No-Wire after my first foray into Real Adult Bras resulted in horrible underwire bruising and finding the only Wal-Mart bra that "fit" (too small, rather than too large) was a junior's 32A pushup. The lady who sized me at VS said these would work for me (nevermind that my proper size is a 28/30) and helpfully suggested trying a demi for a more flattering shape (I later learned she was right about that, at least).
The cups are full-coverage enough and lightly lined/molded enough that they cover up ...the gaps and un-filled space and smooth out the pointy line of my boob under most shirts. They are soft and I don't have to wash them delicately and line-dry them because I don't give a damn.
But the actual fit is horrible. The tops gap, the band is too wide (it used to mostly fit, when the bra was new, but it's long past stretched out and too loose), the tag/hooks itch, and the only reason it looks remotely good under shirts is because the cups are so shallow that they smoosh the breast tissue into a much softer, flatter shape. I look like a boy in this bra, but at least my nipples don't show. Read more 116 more words
This bra is very cute and is very gently used. My boobs are slightly too small for this bra (I hover at a B/C). The straps are adjustable, but they do not give very much stretch. The band also does not provide a lot of stretch.
The material is really smooth and soft and really comfy - this is what I like best about the bra.
The band is a little loose for me, the center gore and cup width a little too wide as well. However, I like the coverage it gives and I think that it would do a decent job if only it fit better.
Wow, the band was way too big, especially for a strapless. I was looking for a good strapless bra, but this certainly wasn't it, since it is constantly falling down if I try to wear it without straps. It also doesn't help that there is no silicone grip on the band. Unfortunately, VS only goes down to a 32 band size, when I should be wearing a 28/30. Too bad because it could be a very comfortable bra if the band were tighter and therefore more supportive. Now, mine is kind of sad and stretched out.
It's fairly comfortable, and fits well in the cups, gives me some cleavage, but I feel like it would do more for me if I could get it in a smaller band size. It doesn't lift and support as much as I would like because of this. I only bought it because Victoria's Secret is easily accessible so I can try on bras before buying.
Really soft and comfortable material, and a really pretty colour too.
It fits ok, but could be better. The underwires fit ok (doesn't poke, is low enough for a petite build) but the cups don't work for me somehow. They wrinkle at the bottom, and the top gives me quadboob effect although it also gives a nice cleavage. The band is really stretchy too, and so rides up easily and rides up a lot.
About me: Bust: 32.5, Underbust: 28, left perimeter: 7, right: 6.5, wide/widely space and shallow As with all my bras, I am now realizing that this one doesn't fit me properly. The band fits on the tightest hook (of 4) and the longline boning and 3 hook column keeps it in place, but a band size down would probably be preferable. I think the 1 in separation is ok, or rather it would be if the cup fit my left breast. I realize that I've been catering to my smaller breast and probably should've gone up a cup size. I thought that it fit, but when I look more closely I realize that the gore is lifting and pulling to the left. I don't think I'd want a much deeper cup though so much as a slightly deeper slightly wider cup. I've gotten compliments on it and I think that it looks ok so it's still a keeper, but I don't think I'd buy it again.
Ugh, I so wish this bra fit. I love balconnet bras and leopard print, so this is so disappointing.
Although the tag says it is a 36D, I find that the band is rather tight for a 36 and fits more like a 34, which I found to be perfect for me. However, the cups don't even come close to being big enough.
Why, oh, why do none of my cute bras fit anymore? I guess the search continues for the perfect bra.
I didn't find this to be a very comfortable bra, to be honest. The gore was slightly too high, cups were slightly too separate, the band was too big, the cups were to small. Overall not a good fit for me. Actually, a horrible fit for me.
On the other hand, I really like the pattern and he cute little bow details. Alas, cute bras don't necessarily always fit.

I think I only wore this bra a handful of times and that was years ago. Band is way too big and cups are too small. I found the pushup to be a bit much, as as it is built in rather than the removable pads, I was not too fond of it.
It's a plunge, multi-way, push up bra with a cute leopard print pattern. Would have been pretty decent if it actually fit!
I originally bought this in a 32DD and had to exchange for the 32DDD because I was getting some quadboob up top. After trying all sorts of bras at VS, I've determined I'm in between the 32DD and DDD. I have kept this bra in a 32 triple and I love the shape it gives me--very round, busty, not pointy. The fabric is really soft and the memory foam makes it comfy for a push up bra. I like it for every day and feel sexy in it too. My only complaint is that I feel the underwire poking at my ribs. I have adjusted the straps as tight as I can to get the bra up and off my ribs, but surely that is contorting the underwires and making them cut in even more. I have a roxie clip on order. I will try to tighten the band in that way and alter the straps if need be. It's a gorgeous bra. If it fits you, you'll love it!!
I really like this bra! My other VS bra is a 32DDD, but I went to a 34DD in this one because I could hardly get the 32 to close. It's a teensy bit big for me, but I don't care...it's comfortable, I can jog in it and it even looks great under a normal shirt. Gives a nice rounded shape.
Darn you Vicky!!! I still can't understand why Victoria's Secrets refuses to expand their size range! They're so outdated, and it makes me very sad https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> This is the softest, most comfortable bra I have ever put on my chest!! Unfortunately, it's too small in the cups and a little too loose in the band (even on the tightest hook). The gore doesn't tack, it's not even touching my sternum. It's not completely unwearable, but I will have to keep readjusting throughout the day (pulling the band back down and scooping n swooping).
I love the memory foam lined cups, and the ...fabric is just SUPER soft! It's like a pair of fuzzy socks for your boobs. I'm really bummed this is too small. I'll still wear it though. I just thought it would be a much better fit since my Body unlined Demi fits in a 32DDD. And I really wanted just a plain, simple t-shirt kind of bra, NOT a padded push-up! Oh well, maybe one of these days VS will get with the times and make smaller bands beyond a 32 and larger cups past a DDD! Read more 88 more words
The cups do this weird thing where they pull away from my breasts and curve out. This shows under clothes. The bottom of the cup is also not projected enough for me, so it wrinkles and there's a bit of the orange in a glass effect.
