Lunaire Sarah Front Close Multi-Function Soft Cup Bra 232-11 Reviews

I purchased the bra for my daughter who's undergoing breast radiation. The quality of the bra was very good, but the size was too small (in comparison with other American brands). It was the second style I tried, and in that case the fit was also too tight. Dolores from Maryland

I purchased this bra during my sixth month of pregnancy with the hope of using it from maternity on through nursing. I use it as a sports bra right now and plan to continue using it for that purpose as well as for sleeping. The fabric is soft, the bra provides good support and looks great on, but unfortunately the stitching along the band underneath the hook and eye closures is very uncomfortable and digs into my skin. I have hand washed the bra several times hoping to soften the area to no avail. I am a 32G and according to the sizing chart I should be getting a size small, but I went all the way up to a large because I was sized at a local shop. I don't believe this problem is an issue of sizing. For now it's OK as a sports bra, but when I actually start nursing, I will be looking for a better sleep bra.

Lunaire Response: Sorry to hear you are having issues with the fit of this garment. I would recommend going up in sizing as I know you were fitted for this bra but as you grow into your pregnancy your needs can change. Thanks so much for giving us such great feedback!

This bra is an amazing nursing bra! It provides AMAZING support despite being a wireless bra. I actually love the hook and eye closures down the front because i can open it up and let down one side for breast feeding. I also use it as a sleep bra. The fabric is amazingly comfortable, and highly breathable. I would recommend this to any nursing mother! Sue from Panama city beach

If the straps were adjustable for length, it would be the perfect bra. Otherwise, very comfortable, good support. Jules from Boca Raton, Florida, USA

I purchased this bra for post-mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with implant surgery. In the first 10 to 14 days after surgery, a wireless, front-closing bra must be worn continuously 24 hours a day. After one week, I can report that the bra itself is supportive and mostly comfortable, but the bra straps with the hooks on the front have no padding at all underneath the plastic hooks, continually rub the chest area below them, and are very uncomfortable. And I'm not sure why they're even there to begin with since they do NOT make the straps "adjustable" as advertised. They only allow the front of the bra to be taken down without unhooking all the hooks in the front--essentially providing two ways to be "front-opening." Finally, since my prior size was 34C and I'm only restoring that size with the implant and not expanding upon it, I don't understand why the "XL" size I bought by mistake, which is supposed to be 36 C/D is so tight against my rib cage. I would suggest anyone looking for a post-mastectomy/immediate reconstruction surgery bra look elsewhere for a completely comfortable experience.

Vendor Response: Hello, It is difficult for me to assist in answering this issue as the beginning of the statement contradicts the ending. But what I can tell you the reason for the hooks on the straps are for customers who wish to use for breast feeding as this is a multi-function garment which can be used for post surgery, breast feeding , sleep or leisure bra. Thanks for your feedback and best on your recovery. Nancy from San Luis Obispo, CA, USA

As pictured and comfortable. My only issue is sizing: the drop down selections are numeric yet when I received the item, it was in S/M/L... apparently a 32 band converts to a M, which I found somewhat strange, but seems to work. For a tighter fit, size down as it's cotton and gives somewhat. a6 from CA
