Great fit and supportive feeling with no underwire.
Love Love Love this bra. I am a 34/36 C/D cup depending on brand and style of bra. I absolutely hate bras with underwire but still want to feel supported. I ordered a 36 and it fits and feels great. I have ordered 2 of these, one a bit more lacey than the other. The lacey one doesn't fit as snug and has a slightly less supportive feeling. I love both of them and will buy again in different colors.

My dream bra
Excellent bra. Front closure makes life easier. Material is stretchy and comfortable.

Very comfortable *because there is NO support*. Straps TOO LONG.
I wanted to love this. In fact, I do love *parts* of this bra. But the shoulder straps are far too loose to support anything. This COULD be because I'm only 5ft tall and the distance from the tops of my shoulders to the middle of my back is shorter than others, but I feel like I'd have to be at least 5' 9" for them to even stay in place. I ordered a 44 and I'm a D/DD cup. The cup fits fine I think, or would actually fit better if the straps were a little shorter. Around my torso and across my chest it's VERY comfortable... but I sit down and there's nothing but loose cleavage everywhere because the straps hold nothing in place at all. No, I wasn't expecting this to be some kind of underwire push-up bra AT ALL - but this is like wearing nothing. I have also found that the band around the torso DOES roll up, but not in a way that it bothers you. Would love to see if I can "fix" this to make the straps shorter so I can wear it more, but I really wasn't wanting to have to alter a bra. What it IS good for is keeping the underside of your girls dry if you're sweating - so this is a great bra for doing housework or working out in the yard. So - if you're kicking around the house or sleeping, I'd say this bra is good... but I wouldn't wear this even to run to the grocery store.

Straps too long, otherwise great sleep bra
Update:I'm a 36 F/FF in uk sizes now, 36G in US sizes. Weight 180ish, L-XL in top, 12-14 in dresses.My underbust measures 35".I bought this in a 36 after the 38 got too big some time ago. I'm back to buy another one in the same size.I did end up cutting a good inch & a half off each strap & sewed them back together - by hand rather than setting up my sewing machine. With the straps smaller, and now that my cup size is a little smaller, I love this bra even more & all of my breast tissue, even though I have more loose skin than I like to think about, is contained.I've lost a ton of muscle while losing weight (was actually in a 34band size for a while, trying to build back some muscle) and I've found tight bands hurt now, where they never did before. I'm also drowning under the cost of constantly trying to keep up with changing expensive bra sizes. So at this point? I'm pretty much wearing this bra any time I'm not going somewhere fancier than the pick up line at my son's school.It's comfortable. Breathable. Separates enough to avoid uniboob. I don't know why they make it with crazy long straps. But it's worth the effort to fix it imo.(currently a 36GG/38G in UK sizes 38I/36J in US sizes - size 18dress, weight 231, height 5'7.5)I'm 45 & I've recently lost more than 80lbs. Which means my breasts suddenly need some support at night. I am not thrilled about this, but this bra helps to soften the blow a little.Unlike most sports bras, sleep bras, and bralettes, this is one of the few that bother to separate the cups, which is important to me. If I wanted to sleep with my breasts in a combined puddle, I wouldn't need the sleep bra. It also makes me feel a little better about walking around in it under my PJs when I wake up in the morning or before bed. Uniboob never makes me feel good.No, it isn't a super flattering bra I'd wear out of the house in general, but around the house & for sleeping, it's my go to. Enough so that I'm back to buy a second one cause I hate when this one is in the wash or I can't find it.I've never been someone who has any problem hooking however many hooks are necessary behind my back, and I usually prefer the adjustability of a back closure. However in a sleep bra, not having the hooks on my back is far more comfortable. In front, they aid with the cup separation.The one striking flaw is the straps. They are not adjustable, which isn't all bad. I wouldn't particularly want a plastic slider digging into my shoulders while I try to sleep. However, that means they've set them for women with very low set breasts I guess. Or, maybe the idea is greater sleep comfort? Either way, it means there is almost no support for anyone with higher set breasts. (for reference, my 38band bra straps are all shortened about as far as they go, my 36s about 60-70%)I keep telling myself i'm going to set up my sewing machine, cut the straps & re-sew them smaller. However, I'm a lazy sewist so they're currently folded over & safety pinned.There aren't a lot of bras that aren't cup sized that hold all of my breast tissue, but this does the job.

Very comfortable, well made
Most os us ladies think we are smaller than we really have become, i thought id take a 38, measured under your bust, i am a 40! These bras are very well made, and easy front closure. I bought #4 for less than #1 bra, at a big store. I just ordered 4 more!

Don't buy if your thin!
I purchased this bra knowing full well that it had hook and eye closures to hold the bra on your body. I also had no clue until I received it that there was not enough padding to cushion the hook and eye closure and protect my skin! I only weigh 98 pounds and I m 5'3" tall. However they should understand that not everyone has a lot of extra fat on their upper chest and provide enough cushioning for their metal hook and eye closure system is placed in between your breasts! I don't think many women have a lot of fat in that area that I have ever seen at least. LOL Needless to say the bra has no way to order the band size, as a typical bra does so this "bra" was way to tight around my body also. If I would have ordered a "larger cup size" perhaps it would have been able to at least fit around my body without squeezing the air out of me,of course then the cup size would have been far to large! As it was the cup size did in fact fit I just couldn't wear it due to the hook and eye closures digging into my skin! I unfortunately put the bra on and had appointments the entire day out of state, by the time I got home it was 12 hours later. I had bad pressure sores from the hook and eye closures when I removed it, that had to be treated by a Dr.because they broke open and started bleeding and I was afraid of an infection. I had to wear a bandage for 10 days and I was not able to wear any type of bra for another week after that! I definitely will NOT be buying any more bra's that have a hook and eye closure in the front. Also the hook and eye closure is quite long and may be very irritating to smaller size women!
