Carnival Posture Support Back with Front Closure Bra 645 Reviews

The bra was very uncomfortable. It did not fit properly. I returned the bra and asked for a refund.

Carnival Response: This bra is made specifically to give back support. If you have poor posture you might be uncomfortable the first few days that you wear it since the main function is to correct poor posture and give back support. Sherry from Sacramento, CA 95828

I order this for my Mom and she was extremely pleased with your product. She just needed a different size, which she just received and it was perfect. Thank you, G Ginette from Folsom

I am an older woman with the usual sagging breasts that comes with age. Since the straps had no way to be adjusted, the bra came up to high to be comfortable and cut under the arms. I am returning it.

Carnival Response: You would be better served with our style Carnival Front Close Adjustable Strap Back Support Bra 656. It is a front closure back support bra with adjustable straps. Sally

They don't fit well.... The part to cover up the nipples are too big and don't fit .

Carnival Response: This occurs when the cup size is too big for you resulting in your breasts not completely filling out the cup. Unfortunately this style is not made in either A cups or 32B which would suit you much better. Marleny from New york

A very conformable bra. The straps stay up on my shoulders. The only problem I have is that the back rides up on me..otherwise I love it!! Janet from Florida, New York, 10921

I fractured one of my vertebrae last December and need to have something help me to hold my shoulders back. This bra fits the bill. Fits well. I would recommend to anyone who needs help with posture. Beverly from Oregon

Good fit, but the only drawback is you are unable to tighten the shoulder straps.

Carnival Response: Try our Carnival Front Close Adjustable Strap Back Support Bra 656 . It is a similar front closure back support bra with adjustable straps. Marpkil from New York

It fits well, but rides up and doesn't stay in place.

Carnival Response: I suggest you try either a 44B or 44C in this style. Bras ride up when they fit too snug. I would also like to suggest that you take advantage of the Universal Cup sizing tool that HerRoom is now offering. It can be a great tool when deciding what size bra to buy. Finding the right bra size is key! Sarah from Boise Idaho

Your service was good. I was happy the bra fit perfectly. I have problems with my upper back and the bra gives me support where needed. thankyou Mary from The villages Fl

The service from Her Room was excellent, but the bra is probably the most uncomfortable one that I have ever worn! It did fit, but as the day went on, I couldn't wait to get home and get it off!!! Plus, it isn't very pretty.

Nice Idea - Terrible Fit - Small like others say and I ordered as size up after reading reviews The closure in front comes up way too high and shows about most button blouses - especially on a shorter person 5'4"

Carnival Response: You are absolutely correct. The closure in the front of a posture bra is higher than a regular bra. You will find that almost all posture bras are shaped similarly in the front. It would be almost impossible to make a true posture bra with low cleavage in the front. Sharon from Olney MD USA

The quality of the bra is grate, but the fit still is not good. This is a replacement, since the first one was too small. This one also is small, but wearable, so I am keeping it. I still bulge out of the top and it cuts under my arm. I am small but big busted, never thought I would wear a size D, and now a DD is too small. Virginia from Green Valley, AZ, United States

I found the fit very odd, it was not comfortable or flattering. I have purchased many back support bras due to a spinal injury and most have been much more comfortable. Would have liked it better had the cup material been softer and smoother. KC from St Paul MN

It was too small. I returned it for an exchange. Haven't gotten it yet. Virginia from United States

This one did not work for me. While the support was good, the cup shaped the girls in a very odd way. The material was stiff scratchy lace and was very unpleasant to wear. The lace was not a flat lace so it would be impossible to wear under anything but a very thick sweater.

Carnival Response: Since this is a posture bra the back has double lined power mesh. In order to eliminate the scratching please make sure to hand wash this bra before wearing. Susie

Bought for my 80 yr. old mother. She felt that the back support was too stiff. She has scholiosis and has had trouble in the past with back support. Will keep for a back-up. MO

The bra is comfortable and gives good lift, but the many hooks, although in front, are hard to close. A zipper would have been better. Also, I am not sure about the construction and if this bra will hold up for very long - time will tell.

Carnival Response: Unfortunately hooks are difficult to close but they are not restrictive while providing security. Zippers are very unforgiving and would probably show through most tops. Sherry from Tampa, FL

This was for my mom. she loved the front closure and the fit. It took a long time to get as it was backordered and a return for size change (2+ months) but she did love it. And she is standing as tall as her 4' 10" can be with the posture support! Rita from Dunkirk, New York

I don't know how the chinese measure but this supposedly 36 C measured 26 inches around. It's the second one I had to return for the same reason.

HerRoom Response: Measuring a bra flat has no correlation to your band size. The manufacturer takes the stretch of the fabric into account when designing the bra. You need to try it on and see if it fits.

Carnival Response: The correct band measurement for 36C is in fact 26 inches. The bra is sized correctly. If your back measures 36” around then you are a size 46 not 36. Suzan from Texas

Personally like the item but wish you would learn to measure correctly. I'm exactly 34" under bust line but this bra was about 31. Made me pay to send it back at my cost. Ordered a replacement at 36" and hope this one works.

Carnival Response: Size 34 is supposed to measure 31” under the bust line. The bras are manufactured true to size. 34” under the bust line would translate to a size 36 or 38. Suzan from Bastrop, Texas USA
