So comfortable!
This is a great bra. Not only does it minimize. It’s super comfortable too and fits perfectly.

Very Nice!
I’m at 34DD so it’s hard to find bras with a small enough band size and big enough cups. Most of the time the straps end up being too long for me and fall down. But this bra is great! The straps fit perfectly. The band is a little snugger than I’m used to so I put it on the 2nd pair of claps instead of the tightest ones which I am totally fine with. Normally I always wear bras with some padding so when this arrived with no padding I wasn’t sure about it at first. But I have really grown to like not having padding in the cups. It gives me a great shape and fits perfectly! It’s my new favorite bra! True to size.

So comfortable
It remains comfortable all day long.The most comfortable and best fitting of all my bras. It is my first time trying a minimizer bra and I'm happy with the results. I'm 74 and wear 34C and a slightly smaller bust looks better on me. I'm going to order another one!

Not a fan of this bra but your mileage may vary
I ordered 4 different sizes of this bra from different vendors over several days, trying to find one that was "just right." Finally settled on 36DDD, but I wish I had returned that one too.This bra is probably best if you have very full breasts - there are wrinkles at the top where I'm not filling it, but at the same time, I feel squished like it's a sports bra. I've had other minimizers that are NOT this uncomfortable.The underwire also goes up too high so I feel like I'm in a cage.The quality of the bra itself is good and it's soft and seems like it will hold up a long time, it's just not a good bra for me.I purchased this because I needed a very thin/unpadded bra for hot summer months. They are hard to find in a larger cup size. This one is nice and thin (but not too thin) but just doesn't work in other ways.

It’s a No From Me
This is the strangest bra I’ve ever tried on.My band size (under breasts and around the ribs) measures 36 exactly, and my bust measurement is a precise 44. I am a solid 36H, but depending on cup style and the material used, I do occasionally wear the sister size of 38F.I tried this out due to the good reviews, and the low cost. My typical size is 36F, but I am currently pregnant and sprang up to 36H overnight. Yikes. My favorite bras are made by Elomi (UK sizes, so go to a site with sizing assistance to find your size for this brand), and I generally stalk that brand online on different sites for sales so that I can purchase them between $35-50. I also like Le Mystere and Freya, and when it comes to bras I expect a good three years of service or it ain’t getting five stars.However, I’m pregnant, and in six months my milk will come in and I’ll need a different size. So heyyyyy, bring on the twenty dollar bras!I wanted this one to work. It’s sleek and smooth and would work under thin jersey shirts, and the band fits correctly- no riding up the back. The material is comfortable as are the straps. Unfortunately, it does some strange thangs to my breasts that make it a no go.The gore tacks, and the fabric on the bottom of the cups fits correctly, but there is a center strip of at least four inches where my breasts are smashed flat like a pancake in the center of my chest. I tried to get a pic of this flattened zone, but the bra is black so it’s a bit difficult to see. Because the bra squishes my breasts flat only in the center it simultaneously forces them out to the sides, so basically my boobs are trying to flee to the corners of the globe- one to the east and one to the west. There is also extra fabric bunched up at the top of the bra. Overall, it is the most comical effect I’ve experienced with a bra in my thirty six years on this Earth. It made me laugh, and I even put a shirt on to giggle at the craziness of having flattened breasts that point due east and west.My breasts are very large, but are definitely shallow, and also slightly wider set than average. On the plus side, the shallowness makes them look surprisingly perky because in spite of the pendulous size my nipples are still up turned. But sometimes certain bras just can’t work even if they are in the correct size.If you know you have shallow breasts like mine, this bra may not work for you. But the thing is, it’s a twenty dollar bra that you can return for free. It clearly works for a lot of women! It is worth giving a try. It’s tricky finding a bra that works even if you have your size spot on, because we are all different shapes and cups shapes vary A LOT!The bras I found in the twenty dollar range that DO work for me (I have reviewed them individually as well)are: Vanity Fair Women’s Beauty Back Full Figure Underwire Bra, Lilyette by Bali Women’s Beautiful Support Lace Minimizer (if you truly want a Minimizer this was the best one in my opinion), and Lilyette by Bali Women’s Enchantment 3-section Unlined Minimizer Underwire Bra (doesn’t actually minimize at all).I tried several Delimira bras, but those are a disaster on me as well. Hope this helps!

Def recommend
This is a fantastic bra. The material is supportive without added bulk, I definitely feel like my boobs are being “minimized”, the price was good, it feels well made, looks like the picture, etc.I had a baby a few months ago and my chest is floppy and huge and my old bras are jsut gross. I also have a bigger band size now. My other bras were not meshing well w my new found back fat rolls and were wholly unflattering. I figured I’d get a new one that actually fit. I got a 38D instead of my usual 36D.It is definitely tight around the band still. But if I went to a 40 the cup size wouldn’t really be a D for me anymore and I’d lose the minimization effect I was looking for, and also the underwire coming around under my arms would be loose and poke out on an angle. The worst. So I went w the 38. I am ok with it and each time I wear it it will stretch out a bit until it’s finally fitting a little more personally.I got the pink color and I’ve never gotten a pink bra before. I love the color. It keeps the chicas in place and also creates nice cleavage if I want it too. Or I can sort of readjust and pull them apart a little more and I get a nice curved space between them. It looks fine under all my shirts.I always have issues w how the underwire comes up under the arm area, so I pretty much always complain about that aspect of bras no matter how much I like them otherwise. I don’t think it’s possible to make them the way I want it. Not without sacrificing some other point of comfort anyway. With this bra I feel this wiggly upper part under my arm and it’s annoying. I jsut want a bra to come all the way and cup my boob from all three sides. Why is it so hard!Lol but all that aside, I Definitely recommend this bra, especially if you know your size to a T and know what works/fits. If you’re in between sizes you may need to purchase two and try them on. At a brick and mortar store I would take like 20 bras in, in different sizes each and try them all out. Some work work don't. So for this one if you’re unsure I’d say to purchase a couple and return whichever doesn’t work. I probably should have done this. The size I got still works though, and overall I love it!

Looks good on the wife
Looks good on the wife. She likes the way it holds the 'girls'. I like the easy open clasps at the back. They make for easy one handed removal when the time is right. The garment makes her happy so overall its a good investment.

Not comfortable
Update: after looking at my other Bali bras, I am pretty sure it is the type of wire that is the problem. Bali has the 'new and improved' flex wire. I feel like the flex wire is not at all suitable for larger sizes. Nothing has changed with the other details - wire jabs uncomfortably, buckles to the side. Still disappointed.I have worn Bali bras exclusively for 15 years. They discontnued my go to style so I thought I would try this one. The bra is soft and made with quality fabric. However, the underwire is not great. It does not run along the majority of the cup and I had to bend the end quite a bit to mould it to my body so that it didn't jab into me. Previously, I have had zero problems with Bali bras, but the last two I have purchased have both had shorter wires in the cups. This was the least uncomfortable one, so I am keeping it...but, it is time to start looking at other brands I think.
