It appears I need a 48G. It's too tight around, and the cups are too big. BUT you don't make this bra in a 48!, so I'm trying to decide what to do instead. I also didn't like the wrinkeling and bumpiness of the cups as it shows badly through smooth clothing, (which may be due to the cup being too large.) Nice "stay-put" straps, and good side coverage.
HerRoom Response: If you go up a band size, you go down a cup size to keep the same cup volume. Your cup symptoms all point to your cup size being too large in the size you tried.

i had searched for years looking for a comfortable bra that i didn't need to keep adjusting throughout the day. aviana finally made the bras that are not only comfortable, but the straps do not slip down constantly and the support is just great

It's softness and support is wonderful.

VERY comfortable and great lift. That's hard to find in a soft cup.

I don't typically leave comments or reviews. However, this bra has been a great bra. Bought in 12/07 and I am still wearing it. My breasts are very heavy and typically I HAVE to wear an underwire, so when this bra was recommended I was skeptical - NO UNDERWIRE?! Lots of lift and support. I have lost some weight and am needing to go down in the band size, so will be ordering more.

I bought this as an add on, since it looked similar to my usual. Love the fit! It fits a little better than my other aviana. Only problem, is that you can see the lace pattern through thinner fabrics. Overall, extremely comfortable, and as supportive as a G cup can be:)

I love this bra. I bought one years ago and wore it and wore it. After purchasing a load of others, I finally pulled this one out of the bottom of my drawer and found it online. I always have to return bras because the sizes are not right, but these are GREAT! This site was easy to work with and the bra came very quickly! The bow in the middle could go, but I just trim it off ;). I gave it 4 stars because after wearing it ALL day it sometimes digs into my sides and leaves uncomfortable marks.

This bra is very supportive for a soft cup bra; it's also pretty comfortable. (Most of the time I need underwire for a bra to be supportive for my size.) It could do with a little more "lift" (I have the straps as short as they can be), and the fabric is slightly itchy on the inside after having it on for a while.

The Straps stay up and it is comfortable. The other reviews talked about the straps and that was why I bought it and everyone was right, the straps stay up. I usually have huge problems unless the bra is a racer back. This has a regular back but they stay up, hurrah!

I love this bra. I'm short and fat but before that ever happened, I was big busted. this bra keeps it's shape, is comfortable and doesn't fall apart. The only hold back is the price, but if 3 of these last better than 6 cheaper, they are worth it. The lace cup does last better than the soft cup too.

Much more comfortable than the 34Es I had been wearing (hadn't measured for a while). I'm pleased and surprised at the amount of lift without underwires. It is a bit too visible though; need a cami with almost any of my clothes.
