I really enjoy the shoulder pads on the bra, I have a very heavy chest and the shoulder pads make a huge difference on the weight my shoulders carry. Thanks Kristy from Louisville Kentucky, Jefferson

I bought the front closure very of the Elila Jacquard SoftCup b/c i could not hook the regular back closure version up completely b/c the waist band does not stretch much. The back hook version was hard to pull down to hook up all 5 hooks. I'm only 5 feet tall so my arms weren't strong or long enough to reach up my back that high. It's a very sturdy bra, it has great support and the best part is the sliding shoulder pads. they work great i positioned them where i needed the padding so the straps would not dig into my shoulders and they stayed put all day. The only 'not so perfect' part of the bra is b/c you opt for a front closure the cups are not separated by fabric that lays on your chest as with the regular back hook version. you won't get that 2 separate cups in the end look. The front closure can't hold itself to your chest but i still ti it's worth the trade off b/c i can hook it myself easily. Dara from Oxford, CT

Cup Size fit was smaller than the back closed bra of the Elila same cup and band width. Therefore, I had to return this bra. I ordered 2 front close, but because I wore one I ended up keeping 1 which does not fit correctly. By the way, I ordered the front hook bra based on the back hook bra I already owned. Apparently that was a mistake, the back hook does not fit the same, cup wise, as the front hook. Mary from Upper Marlboro, MD

Very good quality bra that actually fits me! The support is good, although I've only worn it a short time - so don't know the durability yet. A little hard to get on, but I'm getting better at it! The only negative is that I would rather it didn't make me stick out so far. It is comfortable, however. Claudia from Delano, MN

This bra, while it fits ok, just gives an unwanted look. It's alright for lounging around the house.. I wouldn't wear it in public. Gives the *bullet* look and kinda just looks frumpy. I am happy they have bigger sizes so gave a star for that, love the front hooks, another star... although after putting away groceries and putting a load into the washer 3 of these fine front hooks came undone... another reason not to wear in public. Keep going Elila, your on the right track, just not there yet. Gina from Country Gal, USA

This was certainly not one of the better fitting bras I've found - it was extremely uncomfortable just trying to put it on, though once I managed to get it on it wasn't too bad. While my husband found it greatly entertaining, I couldn't appreciate the fact that three to five of the seven clasps would come undone each time I moved my arms, and unfortunately had to return this bra.

Decent support; comfortable; attractive. The best part is that the straps don't slide off my shoulders. Marsha from Huntsville, AL, USA

Yes....finally one that does what I need it too. Excellent support both around the rib cage and also over the shoulders. Will purchase another one. I highly recommend this Bra for large breasted women. Carol from Albany, Or. United States

Overall, great fit, true to size, keeps the girls where they belong without bounce, the front clasp only has one row, so be sure to order your true size. Good value, most of the time I have spent $50+ for a decent bra and then had to have it tailored. This fit right out of the box. Shipped out really fast. Geri from Carrollton, TX

For me this is an excellent bra to have. I sweat a lot underneath and after maybe six months the bottom two hooks fell off. I had mine for over a year now and I wont get the front hooks again. I only got two the first time. Because I don’t want to have to spend $200 on four bras. Once the bra gets stretched out you have to adjust the stapes. I only tried the front hooks because I can’t hook a bra from the back. I will try the back hooks and see how that goes. Jennifer from West Lafayette IN, USA

I was extremely disappointed that this bra did not come close to fitting when I finally received it. I have been measured and this was the size I was supposed to choose. Also, upon trying to get the bra on, I realized that the fabric was course and very stiff. It's so frustrating that I have to purchase my bras online because of my behemoth bosom anyway but it amplifies my frustrations when the product doesn't fit. I do not think this product is sized correctly but hopefully I can exchange it for a bigger size. Christy from Van Buren, AR

I love this bra!!! It fits very snugly, yes, but that's a good thing. It keeps the "girls" in place and fully supported. As far as straps digging into the shoulders, I think most women with extremely large breasts have this problem. This bra seems to really minimize this issue. I also love the fact that I don't have to deal with the jiggle factor, I refer to this bra's support as "locked and loaded". I have had problems with hooks wearing out over time but that happens on most of my bras, I just sew on new ones from the sewing supply store. Only fuss is it needs to come in other colors.

I love this bra! This was my second purchase. Very good product, from the front clasps, cushioned shoulder straps, back support, no under wire...all of these things are great. However, the best thing to me is that Elila bra makes my actual cup size. Thanks to Elila and HerRoom, I never have to deal with dreaded and unsightly spillage out of the front or side of the cups or the tri-boob or jiggle factor ever again!

This bra has no give whatsoever and like someone else has already said it is the most uncomfortable bra I've ever worn. I thought for the price I should have gotten a better fitting and more comfortable bra. I did like the moveable shoulder pads. Patsy from Dayton,Ohi

This is the best fit and support I've found in years. Usually I wind up with a cup size that's too small but the largest I can find. My only wish to make this the dream-come-true bra is to find this size in a cotton bra (or at least a cotton lining). Irene from St. Peters, MO

I have truly enjoyed this bra! The material was a little rough at first, but once I broke it in, it has been wonderful. I am so happy that I took a chance and ordered this bra. Cheryl from Birmingham/Alabama/Jefferson

Runs much smaller size than same brand with back close bra. Sadly I expected it to fit as it is the same size as other Elila Jacquard (back close) bra. No return/exchange after tags are removed. If exchange with tags still attached, still must deal with shipping fees and guessing as to how much to estimate for size difference allowance. Customer from WA

I've purchased 2 of these bras and I absolutely love them. I've always had a bigger chest and this is the first time I've ever found a soft cup bra that actually holds me up from the time I put it on in the morning, until I take it off at bedtime. I was used to wearing underwire, but I have to say, I love the feeling of no wires poking me or making me feel uncomfortable! I'm currently 7 months pregnant and for me, the back support of this bra is tremendous. You can see where my breasts end and my belly begins!!! For anyone that is big chested, I would recommend trying this bra out. I was always a skeptic about softcup, but I love these bras!! Jennifer from Iowa

I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE GARMENTS THAT ARE FOR THE BIGGER SIZE GIRL. WE NEED BRAS JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE AND IT IS SO HARD TO FIND. YOU GUYS ARE ALL I PLAN TO USE NOW. THANKS CAROLYN from KNOXVILLE, TN

It places too much weight on your shoulders.

HerRoom Response: Generally, if there is too much weight on your shoulders, you need to go down a cup size to get better support. Pam from Venice FL

First time buying from you. I will be buying more for sure. Love the way it fits. Very comfortable. Wish you had more colors to pick from. Judy from Michigan., U.S.A.

The bra is comfortable however the clasps in the front are not very durable. I have 5 of these bras and I have the same problem with all of them. Neka from Torrance

I liked this bra a lot. It is comfortable and the adjustable cushion strap is a great idea. The only problem is the top couple clasps can come undone. Angeleen from St.Paul, MN

Not a very natural shape, seems to point the girls to the left and right instead of out front. Jessica from Louisville, OH

I think its very comfortable, easy to get on, and I like the pads for the shoulders. Its very supportive, I would definitely buy it again. Kathie from Wyoming

Love my bras, very comfortable, would like the straps to have some stretch. Wish they came in more colors, big girls like color also, so I dye them, which works for me. Wish you were here in Nova Scotia then I would not have to pay duty on them. Very reasonable in price. Have informed others of your service. Thank you again for accommodating me. Will order again and again. Rocklyn from Nova Scotia
