***Sorry in advance, Amazon jumbled up my photos for whatever reason ???? BACKSTORY: I usually wear a 34D (used to be a 34DD but apparently they shrank after having a kid ????) and I needed a strapless bra for a bridesmaid dress so I researched them for DAYS. I basically loath wearing certain types of bras and I own numerous Victoria Secret bras including strapless and multiway bras, have a few backless strapless adhesive bras, cups that could be sewn into the dress and even silicone chicken cutlet looking inserts that have all proven to be mediocre, a waste of time, not supportive enough, horribly uncomfortable on hot days (yes, adhesive bras do hold in all your sweat and loose their grip not to mention they are DISGUSTING to take off) so yea, you can say I've pretty much tried everything on the market. I will say I was extremely hesitant purchasing this bra because of its expensive price tag but I can tell you in the end, it is worth it, and I could especially see this bra being magical for even bustier ladies out there! First I'll lay out some details about the bra and than the pros and cons, so if you're interested, enjoy the review! ABOUT THIS ITEM: (straight from the listing) - 91% Nylon, 9% Spandex - Imported - Hand wash and hang dry - Strapless bra with contoured cups featuring removable straps - Hook-and-eye closure at back - Cushioned lower bottom band for added comfort - Band and sides smooth and minimize bulge - Do not iron, Do not dry clean PROS: - Beautifully contours your breasts - Great coverage - Lower V point than expected so this bra works great with low cut dresses/shirts - Exceptional support - Insanely comfortable - Fit/Size was exactly as expected - Heavenly silicone lining and grippies all over the bra will ensure you can "shake it, shake it, like you're supposed to do" ???? because this bra isn't going to budge! (Seriously people, August wedding, insanely hot summer, pre wedding game, photos, ceremony, reception, definitely a little tipsy, dance floor for hours and stayed in place without having to adjust it until I took it off that night!!) CONS: - Pretty darn pricey! I purchased mine for $68 before tax - Shipping sucked. My bra was shipped in a plastic bag in a generic Amazon envelope and was definitely squished, bent and dented upon receiving it - NOT a push up (not necessarily a con but I was under the impression it would be). CONCLUSION: The under wire in this bra is extremely supportive and for you ladies who can't have any push up because their own boobs may suffocate them, this bra is pretty amazing and you should definitely give it a try! My sister and my two besties all range from DDD-G-F and I literally want to buy this bra for each of them because of the exceptional support and silicone grippies that this bra has. It's a beautiful, almost full coverage that looks flawless under clothes & dresses without having any overhang where bras tend to pinch up top when they're too small. It also has a beautiful shape and is low enough to wear with pretty low cut v shirts/dresses. The bridesmaid dress I wore it with had a very triangular top with low cleavage dip and spaghetti straps and I was very impressed with how well it worked! For any ladies who want more oomf, you could always add in some cup inserts to give you that push up feel too. Overall, this bra was definitely pricey and the shipping sucked which is why I rated it a 4/5 but the pros of this bra definitely outweighed the cons. Honestly the bra itself deserves a 5/5 rating. I would definitely recommend trying this bra, especially for the heavily blessed ladies! This bra is pretty magical ????.
