This bra is wonderful support for larger bust sizes!

More coverage than what you might expect from a demi style, at least in size 34F. I'd compare it more to a balcony like the Fantasie Olivia. The fit is fine, though not as nice as other Chantelles I've tried, and not as nice as the Olivia. The deal-breaker for this bra was the lace on top. It is sewn onto the upper edge in a way that makes it floppy -- it does not lie flat on me. I tried the bra on with a few tops and decided to return it. The ribbing on the bottom part of the cup is rather deep and would show through a lot of tops as well.

This bra is both beautiful and comfortable. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is a little tight on the upper part of my chest, slightly bisecting. Maybe it will stretch out a bit. I'm afraid if I go up a cup size, it will be too loose. It is worth keeping.

It is so hard to find a pretty garment that fits at this size. Although I would have liked it to be a little lower cut I certainly can't complain as the usual bra that I wear is completely the opposite........durability comes to mind! Also, the cost is a nice treat, half of the 'durable' one. I certainly will be a repeat customer!

I bought it after purchasing the full cup which I love. I was disappointed because the demi lacks the side panel that really helps pull you in. I much prefer the full cup. I only wear the demi when both my black and ivory full cup are in the wash.
The scratchiness does disappear after a wash or two.

The most comfortable and supportive bra I have ever owned! I purchased my first Chantelle Bra from a expensive Lingerie shop while visiting Northern Virginia about 4-months ago. I was thinking I would have to return to that shop to purchase more of this bra. I was delighted I found this exact bra on your website.
Thank you. I am a customer for life!

This was not a true fit for me, at all! For the price, should have been! I sent this back.

Unlike many who have reviewed both the full cup Legend and the Demi, I prefer the full cup. I still need the white and will order the full cup. Otherwise, just like the full cup Legend I like the way it encapsulates the breast tissue from under the arms to bring it to the front. These two bras are not minimizers.

I never thought that a demi bra would give me enough support, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this bra. It's very supportive and it's also very attractive.

This is a comfortable, lovely bra. I got it in mauve, which is really a blue gray, and its lovely. This balconette style demi by Chantelle is great cut for me. Its similar to the meli melo in cut, with the addition of a side support that pulls the breast tissue into the cup. It does show texture through light clothing, but I've given up on caring about that, as i just haven't found a t-shirt bra that fits me well. Very pretty. Very comfortable.
