This bra is scratching, not high quality material and doesn't flatter the breasts at all.

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. Amy from USA

Comfortable--fair support--I have always worn a bra with underwire so this bra feels strange--I did notice though good back support. Service from this company was glitch-free. I will order again from this company but, probably not this particular item Shopper from Owasso, OK

Makes it weightless. Submitted from TheUndies.com

Underarm length too short, making the bra ride too high at underarm; lack of strap adjustment made this problem more difficult, unfortunately I was unable to progress beyond trying the garment on.

VCarnival Response:Based on your complaint it seems you should have tried a 42 in this bra. The armholes increase incrementally with the back size on this garment. Barbara from Silverton, OR

The fit on this garment is a bit small, but workable. It is advertised as a posture improving item, I don't find that to be the case. It is comfortable and supportive. All in all a good bra. Jaque from Phoenix, AZ USA

This bra does exactly what I need by holding my shoulders back and relieves the pressure on the tops of my shoulders. It is also very flattering to my figure. I would recommend this bra to anyone. Karen from Yukon, OK

The bra is not true to size, smaller around than my normal size. I had to order the second one larger than the first.

Carnival Response: This bra runs true to size and is our top selling Carnival bra. You are probably buying the wrong size, which is a big problem in our industry. The sizing issue is more evident in a posture bra because they are less forgiving by nature. Sally from Sweet Home OR

The bra is scratchy, its made of all synthetic material. It is cut high under the arms, which begins to irritate after wearing it awhile. The support across the back is nice, but the front buckles so the sag, which is what under wires eliminate, is there. If I had not had to wear the bra to experience the difficulties with it, I would have returned it.

Sorry you people do not believe in adjustment or separation. I threw my bras away. I would have loved to have adjusted the straps. What's up being over a C cup and having to have one big giant boob!?

It is truly the BEST bra I've ever bought anywhere!! It is light weight, so very comfortable that I can wear it ALL day and night, if I choose. It fits me fabulous. Not binding anywhere. I love it and I plan to buy more of the same style but in different colors!!! Thank You, Yvonne Yvonne from La Mesa, Ca., U.S.A

This is hands down the most comfortable bra I have ever worn. I have horrible back problems, and this does ease the pain somewhat. But besides that it is just super comfortable! And it really supports the bust too, more than I'd expected. I guess it would fit more figures if the straps adjusted, but it works for me. And it was a good deal too. Jessica from Austin, TX

I am pleased with a good fit. I was seeking support for rounded shoulders and a lift. I am happy with the results that also include comfort! Carole from Atlanta, GA, USA

Very disappointed in the sizing. I always take a 40D, but I couldn't even get this one close enough to close, sizing is way off. Material felt that it might be very "itchy" , coarse. I sent back and ordered another brand, hopefully it is right on the sizing.

I ordered a cup size smaller than I wear in my other bras and it was still big in the cup. It is a bit "pointy" in the cups as well. I love the back and the fact that it is front hook.

Carnival ResponseThis bra runs true to size according to Carnival. This is also our top selling Carnival bra. Robin from Byron Center, MI, USA

The material looks cool and comfortable. The bra cups are too large for me. I'm wearing a Chantelle 38B, but this bra has much too much room in the cups for me.

I read the reviews and decided to order one. I liked the bra I ordered so well that I promptly ordered another one. They are comfortable to wear, considering that it is for back support, and it's nice to find a bra that actually fits, and doesn't look so "matronly." Additionally, this type of bra gave me a little "oomph" (lift) that I so badly needed, without the uncomfortable wires. :) Sue from Tennessee

I wish this would let me rate higher, I love this bra!!! Playtex use to have a front closure w/back support, but discontinued it. I am so thankful I found these Carnival bras, please don't discontinue!!! I have to have the front closure w/back support, as I was very hurt at work w/my neck and scapula and cannot use my left arm as I did....I totally rate the comfort and support as a 5 in all categories!!!! Thank you Carnival!!!! My only regret was ordering the wrong size, (I have lost about 20 pounds since I ordered these bras and voila it all went from boobs and hips, hooray!!!!) Trust me, order these bras if you have kind of neck or back injury...you will love them!!!!!! KC from Myrtle Beach

The quality of the bra overall was not what I expected..too flimsy. Didn't appear that it would hold up more than a few washings. The fit was at least one size too small. I went out to a store and purchased another brand of bra in the same size and it was perfect. Sorry, won't be trying this again.

Carnival Response: This is a very surprising comment since this is the #1 selling Carnival bra on HerRoom. We do have Hand wash and Hang dry instructions for all of our bras. Different brands as well as different bra types have different size specs so I would recommend using our size chart for measurement before purchasing a Carnival bra. D.Mc from Kansas City, Mo

I like this style of bra because it has good front and side support. This is the first time I have purchased this brand. The cups run a little small. It is well-made. I was very happy with the service. Jennie from Gunnison, CO USA

Nice Bra but the material is pretty rough,I hope that with many washes the thing will be less rigid.Otherwise recommended.The shipping was ok,the order process on line was smooth and fast,no complaints.I will be buying 2 more and I hope to find it ,sometimes stores are not consistent and discontinue good ones. Recommended all the way,no problem. Pinkchiguire from USA

Ran very small (at least one, maybe two sizes) and I had to return it. Did not re-order not knowing how the bra measures. Robin
