Purchased for a second time.
I purchased these a while ago and have been impressed with their durability and that they keep their shape. Well made. Hold up well, they do have a nice wire underneath but it’s sewn together and lightly padded so it doesn’t gouge into you. True to size, last a long time. Wear and tear is great as I’m hard on my clothes due to living a farm and country life. Definitely worth the money.

Comfortable but no lining
When I was younger, I lamented I was too flat chested. Now that I'm over 50, the opposite is true. Age, gravity and weight have made my upper section look like one big blob. I used to have a thin waist; now it appears non existent! I decided I needed a lifting bra to separate my bust from my waist again. The ones I've tried, however, made me look like Nurse Diesel from the movie High Anxiety: pointing straight out as opposed to perking me up! So I realized I not only needed lift but some minimizing as well. Being a 40C, I didn't want a lot of minimizing though. Due to Amazon's liberal return policy on clothing, I decided to try four different minimizing, lifting bras.The Bali Live It Up bra (this one) had no lining which was its major drawback. The cups were also a little too loose at the top so the look was not as smooth due to that. It lifted and minimized well without making me look flat chested. I liked the wide comfort straps but not the three hook band. It might have worked in a smaller cup size if it had some light padding.The Olga Luxury Lift Minimizer had no lining, which allowed for too much show through. The cups fit well, but it had a wide three hook band and felt a bit tight. It was one of the best minimizers of the bras I tested -- if that's your main goal. In my case, it made me look too flat chested.The Bali Passion for Comfort bra (3385) also had no lining, allowing for too much show through. Like the other Bali, the cups were a bit loose at the top making it look wrinkly. It felt tighter and less comfortable than the Bali 3353. Also, it minimized a bit too much and made me look flat chested.The Vanity Fair Age Defying Lift bra was the best of the lot. It was the only one of the four that had some light padding. I didn't want any show through if I wore a t-shirt so some type of lining was essential. The straps are comfortable and the band only has two eye hooks which I prefer as opposed to the wide bands with three. The lift gives me more of a youthful silhouette and the minimizing feature makes me look trimmer without appearing flat chested. I can actually see my waist again! It is also a very smooth look -- perfect for t-shirts.

Good support and very comfortable.
I am a 36F, these are the only reasonably priced bra that provides great support and have nice wide padded straps that do not dig into your shoulders. I have tried ordering others ones and I keep returning them and come back to this one. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable full coverage and supportive bra.

This is horrible. What happened to Bali?
I used to wear a lot of Bali bras before I lost weight (it was one of the few companies that made bras in 44J)... Anyway, I bought one for the first time in over a decade, because I wanted something more comfortable while flattering than what I had. Goodness gracious, this one does nothing for my body or comfort. For context, I wear a 32DDD. The bra gives almost NO lift or support, and it pushes your boobs together. Almost like a uni-boob, but not completely. It didn't really have any stretch, nor did it give a flattering shape. With clothes on, it just looked like I had a pillow end under my shirt. It's just all around uncomfortable and unflattering. I won't even bother making it a sleep bra like other bras I don't want to wear out.. it's that bad. LOL

Great comfort. Amazing service. Authentic? Don't think so
On scale from 1 to 10, I'd give this bra a 7.5. It's definitely not Bali, but I don't really mind. It's a bra and it's a good price for one! The comfort - oh my gosh it's amazing!So I ordered this twice - The first time I got a 36D. It arrived the next day and as soon as I tried it on I knew that the band was a tad bit tight and the cup was small. So I went back on Amazon, saw the exchange feature and did it. I got a 38D the next day and it fit perfectly! Mind you I did the exchange at 7PM and got it the next day - amazing!Now onto the bra itself - again, SUPER comfortable. I think this is one of the best bras I got so far in terms of comfort. The bands aren't tight around my back fat and the straps are wide so it didn't pull down on my skin.The reason why I gave it a 7.5 is because it has no padding! At all! I wouldn't mind a small padding or even a thick one - but it's just the mesh fabric on the boob. And there isn't even an area where you can put one in. The nipple will shown an outline (which I am very self-conscious of cause I tend to have pointy nipples) - RIP if you're wearing a thin shirt over it.Would I buy it again? Probably not. But if you're into the no padding then i'd say buy it.

Happy
So happy I found a bra that actually fits and lifts me up with separation. I could not be happier with this choice. I’m 38DD and this is a perfect fit. It runs true to size.

Great bra, but irritates my skin terribly
The fit was great. I liked the wide comfortable straps, good shaping too. It seemed perfect, but unfortunately, after several hours, this bra started to drive me absolutely crazy, causing such awful irritation to my skin. I grew edgy and soon couldn’t take it anymore— whipped off the bra for immediate relief. The only thing I could see that might cause this irritation is the stitching on the side of the cups— which is well placed to help hold and shape If the cups had a thicker material for the inner liner, I think that might solve the problem. Haven’t looked here to see if any others experienced the same problem — and I do have very sensitive skin— but either the thread used, or the lining being too thin makes this bra unwearable for me. I washed it again to see if that would help— no. I put it away about two months and recently came across it and wondered why I wasn’t wearing it—thought I’d just forgotten about it. After half a day of wearing it… it all came back to me. Off it came as I suffered unbearable skin irritation. Too bad! If you have sensitive skin— this bra is not for you!!

Muy funcional.
Me encantó soporta super bien para Mujeres de busto grande. Al principio si se batalla un poco para acomodar pero es cuestión de que lo acomodes todo bien y andas genial todo el día. Y sin que lastime

Comfortable, supportive, nice shape
I love the wide padded shoulder straps! My aching shoulders have never been so happy.The bra fits a bit large, perhaps, and I ordered a second one in a smaller cup size, but the larger size still was very supportive and gave a nice shape. I'm looking forward to having two of these so I can throw out some old bras that are all but useless.Update: I bought a second bra, because the first one was a bit large in the cup. Honestly, I prefer the fit of the first one, although it's too large. The new one fits much better but it's less comfortable and doesn't give the same shape I so liked with the first one. I find I wear the larger one more than the one that "fits" because it looks better under clothing.
