I love this bra! I wear it just as much as an everyday bra without the straps. The only issue is that the bottom of the band tends to fold up.

I don't like strapless bras as a rule, but this Wacoal does the job and is tight enough in the band to stay put, which is more than I can say for any other strapless I've had...ever. Or for that matter, any strapless I've ever tried on, including both Panache, a Chantelle, a Natori, etc.

Update: I wore this to a wedding a couple weekends ago, and it held up admirably! My one complaint is that the cups are VERY tall (which I did mention below), so I ended up folding down the tops of the cups to sit below the neckline of my dress. This may also be due to the fact that I am relatively petite (5'2) and functionally short rooted. Overall, though, it did what a strapless bra is supposed to do and kept everything in place.
I do have to say, for a bra that's not necessarily made for my shape (I'm projected and FoT with a lot of center ... fullness as well), it's an incredibly comfortable bra. I'll have to remember to update this after wearing it for a full night out, but just putting it on the cups are very soft and feel easy to wear. Negatives: the underwire seems like it wants to push itself down my chest, but that's probably due to the shallowness of the cups. The cups themselves are also very tall and kindof end up in my armpit area, but that's something I'll have to live with with strapless bras of this size, I suppose. All in all, though, I'm very happy with it https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I bought this bra a year ago, before I found my true bra size, and I've only worn it the once. I needed a strapless bra to wear under a bridesmaid dress. This was the only strapless bra I could find in anything near my size. Or rather, what I thought my size was. Because this bra was so ridiculously off, it's difficult to review. If my dress hadn't been tight enough to stop it, this bra would have slipped down around my waist during the wedding ceremony. But the band is a 36 when I needed a 30. And the cups were DD instead of GG, so they didn't fit either and helped push the bra down. If you can get this bra in the right size, I think it would be a great strapless bra. It's lined in silicone strips along the band and around the cups (even the top of the cups). It also has multiway straps that can be worn in several different ways (regular, crossed in back, halter, single strap, etc).

I needed a strapless bra, and this is what I found at Nordie's. It does the job, although the edges are lined with some kind of silicone rubber or something to keep it from slipping down, which can be a little uncomfortable. It feels like a heavy-duty bra, because the band is very firm and it has 4 hooks.

The wonderbra gives me vavavoom cleavage but I like this one cause it's a toned down strapless bra. I can wear it to work and church without feeling like I'm nothing but boob.

Back when this fit, I really liked this bra. (On the tightest hook, it's still not the right size anymore... cups have major quad boob. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> )
It stayed up well due to the silicone(?) lip, and it was fairly supportive, too, for a strapless.

This bra is a 30G, not a 30DDD! I don't know why Bratabase is listing it as 30DDD, but that is not the measurement I put in.
There isn't really a lot I like about this bra. The band is way too tight to be comfortable without an extender. The underwires dig painfully into my rib cage. There is a lot of quadboob at the top of the cups near my armpits. The gore feels too high and too wide and is sometimes painful. It is also impossible for me to have any cleavage with this bra.
This bra doesn't look good under my low cut shirts because the cups are high and they show.

I normally wear a 28-30E-F. This 30DDD mooostly fits. Band is fine. The cups seem about right, maybe a tad on the small side because of a non-tacking gore...that that might also be because the gore width is too wide for me. Overall, the silicone-lined underwires were uncomfortable and not padded enough, while the cups themselves had decent padding.

I bought this bra specifically because I needed a strapless bra I could dance in without popping out of for a performance, and for that it did the job. The cups and band are lined with a strip of silicone (?) so they stay put quite well.
I found the bra pretty uncomfortable–it felt like it pulled my breasts out and up in a weird way–but I tend to hate strapless bras, so that's not much of a surprise. I suspect it would be more comfortable were I to have the correct size, but I bought it in desperation.

This is too tight! I just left a long comment on the same bra added by another user. You could have the same problem. Is the silicone grip glossy or matte? You should be able to wear this with an extender if the silicone is glossy.
