Very pretty bra BUT it seems to be bit too much lace covering the cup. Even though the cup fits perfectly there is a ripple in the lace(the lace is stretchy). It does make you think twice about wearing a snug fitting top and at a 42 F everything over the breast tends to be snug so I wear it more with sweaters and sweatshirts. Sky from Portland, OR

Bra is ill fitting---cups are too high and too pointy, underwires come up too far in the front. There is no separation in the front as pictured--bra just produces a uniboob with a point from the wires. Besides that, the lace is stiff, even after washing and it very itchy.

The basic comfort and fit of the bra was great, but the... shall we say, height?... of the cup made it impossible to wear it with anything other than a turtleneck. Kat from Hebron, CT

I love this bra! I have bought every color and it has been a part of my wardrobe for years. I come from women who are “blessed in the chest”. It is hard to feel great about having such a large chest… but when I wear this bra, I think they are more beautiful. The support is great. I have strong words of caution.. this bra is not for the washing machine and you do have to wash and wear it a few times to break it in. Once you do that, you’ll own one in every color too!

I liked the looks of the bra but the wires didn't fit right and there wasn't enough support. Shirl from CO

Terrible fit, the underwire stuck out in the center and there was no support from the cup, it was all on the straps.

after wearing it for a while the wire becomes out of shape and compromises the fit Marianne from St. Helena, CA

Beautiful bra, especially in the plum color, but the underwire protrudes a bit at the top. Overall, I like it and plan to buy another soon! CD from Dubuque, Iowa

Strange sizing and kind of pointy in a larger size - be careful when you order that you get a size up and make sure you want a pointy breast kind of look. Might recommend for smaller women. Freya works quite a bit better for plus-size women and it more comfortable. Mercedes from Spokane/WA/USA

Very uncomfortable at first, very high center which can bulge if not exactly on body. Very wide band that for a full bodies woman was very uncomfortable by the end of the day. Probably will never get this particular style again. Nancy

I got this bra because I needed it for my wedding dress. I needed something that was lower in the back, because the back of my gown came down lower in back. I was excited when I first received the bra because it was a bra for large bust and it was still sexy, appropriate for my wedding night. However, it did not support my bust size of 44I, the underwire poked at my sides and the front wire bulged in the front. It served its purpose for my wedding, but I will not be able to wear the bra again, perhaps it is better on smaller sizes. Hopeful from Pontiac, MI

Although I found the band and cups to be true to size, this bra's design had far more drawbacks than it did benefits. The seams on the front of the cups are so pronounced, this bra cannot be worn under anything but a medium-weight or heavier woven shirt, or perhaps a sweatshirt or jacket. Plus, whether I wore the bra with the hooks on the loosest or on the tightest setting, the band of the bra, all the way around it, rolled up, all day long. It is very uncomfortable because of the band rolling up. Otherwise, it is a well-made bra constructed of high-quality materials, but it should have had stays on the sides to prevent the rollup. I will be returning the other bra of this style I never even tried on, since it's a problem with the bra's design.

HerRoom Response: When your sides roll, this is usually a sign that your band size is too small. I would suggest you go up a band size and down a cup size. and see if the fit would be better. Maggie from Mandeville, LA USA

It fits pretty good at first, but the wires rub on my arms and don't rest on my breast-bone in front. I don't know if this is because I need a higher cup size as seems to be indicated, though I've heard the wires don't usually rest flat in front in larger sizes. I do think the wires would chafe my arms no matter how the cup fits, as the wire and cloth covering are very bulky. It shows through any shirt that doesn't have a loud pattern. There's a big seam right across the center. But the main trouble with the bra was unexpected. It creaks every time you move, like an old rope on a tire swing. Or like you're wearing a Styrofoam bra. And I washed it once and it still does it. irishwhistle from Southern California

This is my very favorite Elila bra!! Have 4 of this style. They fit very well (full cup coverage), comfortable, provide excellent support and stay in place. No tugging with the bra all day until you take it off. Reduces neck & back strain/pressure. Would have given 5 stars, but cup size runs small; have to order up one size. Jane from Pittsburgh PA USA

I love it! This bra is comfortable and pretty, not something I can normally find in my size. I should have bought a bigger cup size though. The stays do poke out in the middle for me. That's OK, I'm loosing weight and hopefully It'll fit perfectly real soon. Barb from West Manchester, OH, US

a very pretty bra, I love the purple color. One problem is the wires jut forward in the center and don't lay flat. I don't have this problem with other bras I've ordered

HerRoom Response: Your wires shooting forward is usually a sign that your cups are not large enough. Consider a larger cup size. Maggie from CA

The bra is beautiful but it does have a lot of fabric on top. I wish I could have support with a lower cut cup. Also, I am nine months pregnant. I think my swollen tummy pushed the underwires up and out which showed through my clothes. I prefer the wires to sit right on my skin between my breasts where they are supposed to. But like I said, it could be the pregnant tummy and not the bra's fault. When I pulled the band down it went flat, but my tummy pushed it up again in a few minutes. dawn from east texas

Being blessed with such a large chest... hasn't always been so pretty.... I never felt good wearing the same bra that my grandma did... This bra has great support and is very pretty. I have worn this bra for a few years... Now, my grandma wears the same bra her granddaughter does! It's great to feel feminine and beautiful! Thanks Elila! Christian from Sacramento, CA

This bra is beautiful in color; however, the bad outweighs the good. The bra offers great support but the material is hard and does not flex with your body movement. It's itchy under the arm area. I would not purchase another bra like this because the material is not friendly. Cool1isHere from Antioch

I was very excited when I ordered this item, based on previous reviews. How disappointed I was when I got it and tried it on. It didn't fit right, it was uncomfortable, and overall so very disappointing after the amount of money I spent on it. I continue to wonder why it is so difficult to find bras that fit correctly and comfortably for someone my size. Susan from New Mexico

Thank Goodness for this website. All you girls with God blessed breasts know what I mean. It is nearly impossible to find a bra in my size in a store, I just gave up and tried fitting into a smaller bra which is never flattering. Now my life really has changed no more lift and separate moments no more strap 'em up and hold 'em down, I put it on in the morning and it stays in the same place all day long, my back doesn't hurt me any more, my breast don't hurt me anymore and just from wearing the right bra I look like I dropped 10 pounds. This bra is very comfortable there is a little break in period but well worth it. Best on the market in my opinion if I were you I would buy five. Dawn from New York

Bought two for Mom, 44G and 2 for me. They are beautiful and nice. They make you feel like a plus size princess and they have great support. Also, they are made very well and with large sizes in mind. Thank you. Wanda Wanda from Baltimore, MD, USA
