This long line bra was exactly what I was looking for, to wear under my wedding dress! I am a really hard fit, and it was perfect. The cups are actually FULL DD cups and offer good support, the band fits snug and comfortably!.. and it looks beautiful. So happy I found it! Beth from Lakeland, FL

Love this bra! I can't wait to wear it for my wedding in June. I originally bought a 36DD but it was too small - the 38DD fits perfectly and makes me look very va-va-voomy. I love the support it has in the cups - most bras like this will push up the breasts, but as a DD cup size I really don't need to look bigger, I just need support. This bra has all the support you could possibly want, plus the clear detachable straps will come in handy for extra comfort. Love it! Dawn from South Bend, IN

I ordered this to wear under my wedding dress, I did order my correct bra size, it fit wonderfully! I am a bit long in the torso so it didn't come down quit as far as the model shows but I still love it! I have tried on over 15 different styles and this one is by far the best and cheapest!!

Finally, the right bra to wear under my bridal gown! I have a very hard-to-find size and I am so thankful that the cups on this bra are finally, truly, large enough for my full cup size. I have a small waist and felt that the band size was a little too large; I have to wear the bra on the smallest set of hooks. Unfortunately, there's no "30DDD" size, but I may have the band altered to be a little more snug on my wedding day. Still, this is by far the best fitting, most flattering bra I've found, and I've looked far and wide. Overall, I'm so pleased I found HerRoom and this bra. It truly has a DD cup, as advertised :) The back works perfectly with my low-back gown, and the stays are invisible under my dress. J

This garment fit very well, although I think the cup size does run a bit large. I wore it under my wedding dress and it was comfortable and gave me the support I needed for over 6 hours with no need to adjust. Gabrielle

I did not like this item. I was uncomfortable the whole time it was on. It had no support, and the plastic in the bottom part dug into my body every time I sat and it was not because it was to small or to large. Good thing my dress fit me well and had enough support. It was a better strapless than others I have warn, but if looking to wear something for longer than 3 or 4 hours find something else.

HerRoom Response: Garments like this are always a challenge for women who are short in stature such as yourself. They are really designed for women who are 5'4" - 5'8". Shorter women should consider a longline that stops at the waist instead of going over the hips for more comfort. Also, 3/4 bras tend to be a better comfort fit for shorter women as well. amanda from jensen

Just got this in the mail and was so upset when it didnt fit me well because it looked comfortable and cute. I'm some where between a 40F and 40DDD so I ordered the 40DDD and it turned out to be too small, no all the hooks would close. Not sure what I'm going to do yet- Anna from NY

I wound up returning this, they just run too big on me and don't come in an A cup. My bra size is 38B. Rebecca from Wilmington, DE

Beautiful bustier! I bought this for my MOB dress. My normal bra size is 42D and I wear 18W dress. I had hoped that the 42D would fit my torso and hip area but sadly not. The bustier was just about 1/8" too small. It hooked but way too tight for a long wedding and reception so I wore my regular 42D black lace bra instead. I kept the bustier for at home experiences. My husband is pleased. Pamela from Hayward, CA, USA

Item was shipped quickly and fit very well. I did call customer service first because I go between 38 D and DD. I ordered the 38 D and was very happy with the fit!! Kim from wisconsin

Product arrived as expected in a timely manner, fits well in the bust Sarah from San Jose, CA USA

It was a little tight thru the waist, but the bust was too loose and I'm typically a DDD. It provided no support. The sides were too short for me which also didn't help. I had read that someone else purchased the La Vien 1503 Ultra Lift Long Line instead. So I tried that one and it is much better. It has a little more room in the waist, gives much better lift and separation for those large chested girls, and the sides are a little higher. I think it's also better looking.

HerRoom Response: If you are apple or pear shaped, a garment like this with longline styling is not going to fit properly without alteration. Tara from Galveston, TX

Very slimming. I am in between cup sizes in this one. The DD is a little roomy, the D is too small. Would be better if I could use the clear straps, but my dress doesn't permit that. Good tummy control. Order up one band size from your normal bra, and down one cup size. I'm usually a 40DDD in a regular bra. Tiffany from Pennsylvania

The fit was fine except the bust was too big. I still wear and enjoy them. I may get a smaller size sometime. I had looked everywhere for this; so thank you! Lynn from Texas

I first ordered 36DDD and was slightly too loose to hold me up securely. Then I ordered the 34DDD and it smashed me down. So I switched to the model 1503 in my true size and it fit like a dream. This bra has good stomach control though.

HerRoom Response: If you go down a band size, you need to go up a cup size in order to maintain the same cup volume. Marilyn from Ocala, FL

I have purchased this item after reading the wonderful reviews. I must absolutely agree!! the bustier fits exactly. The C cup is perfect, the item is very comfortable, tight and supportive. I am full figured, and it is excellent in supporting the bust. The boning all around is tight enough and doesn't fold when you sit. I am absolutely satisfied and happy that I purchased it. Great buy!! Wendy from New York

This is the most comfortable item of this type that I have ever worn. I'm wearing it under my wedding gown and it is very smoothing. A great purchase. Although the cup size is just a bit large, it was not worth exchanging it. Elizabeth from Laramie, WY

I think the band size could be tighter, so I am returning the 36DDD for a 34DDD which I think will give me the support that I need. The customer service people are very friendly and helpful. Bra is sturdy and well constructed. Marilyn from Ocala, FL

Very pretty. Good support for girls the band was a little loose. The back was higher than needed, so returned. A from austin tx

I'm pretty consistently a 40D, so I thought I was being smart when I ordered the item in a 40D and 42C, just in case. In the goddess longline, a 42C was no problem. However, with this bra it was a huge hassel to get it buttoned up. I think a front snap system may have been easier, since I was able to fasten it from the front. Unfortunately, I don't have boobs on my shoulderblades! It was also too short on me, coming down just past my belly button, not down my hips as in the picture shown. That was kind of dissapointing. I would try the next size up, but Va Bien goes no higher! Curse you! Us larger ladies need shapewear too! Shoshanna from Seattle

This item did not fit. It was way too loose around, but fit in the cups. Very cheaply made. Marlana from Ohio/USA

This is by far the best strapless bra I have ever tried. I'm very tall and have a DD cup size so it's pretty hard to find a strapless bra that works and this one is amazing! It's very pretty, has a true long line fit, and supports just like a regular bra. I would recommend it to anyone! Jill from Denver, CO

I got this to fit under a halter top dress. It was wonderful. It stayed up all night long and was as comfortable as one can expect from a structured garment like this. It's also sexy! Monica

The first one of these I ordered in my regular strapless bra size (same band size as usual but a cup smaller than I wear w/ a regular bra). It was loose everywhere even when I was on the tightest set of hooks and provided NO support. I called a customer service rep and she said to exchange it for a 32DD, which was so tight when I got it that I could only get it hooked partway up on the last row of hooks but even only partially fastened, held me up and in place. I wish it had fit better, because of the three styles I tried, it was by far the prettiest and was the only one that the boning didn't show through my dress at all. Trish from Ferndale, CA

We had to return the first garment for a larger size even though we measured for accuracy, but HerRoom was quick to resend and it arrived in plenty of time for the wedding! The new garment fits well and we are very satisfied with the product and customer relations! Belinda from Eudora, Ks USA

I needed to get a bra for a bridesmaid dress I will be wearing in June. I have never found a strapless bra that has held me up and given me support like this bra does. The extra lift boning in the cups really does a great job. I was afraid of the back being too high with the dress, but it sits just perfect. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a comfortable, well made, supportive undergarment. Jamie from Indiana

I purchased this item after reading all the reviews and I was very happy with my purchase. I bought it for use with a bridesmaid's dress. On first try I noticed the bust area seemed as though it might not provide a seamless look with a lightweight dress (worth a try though). My dress gathered in the chest area so it wasn't an issue. No poking, snug fit, need help putting it on, true to size. A note about the picture shown...the bustier appears to be long in length. I am short waisted and it still ended at the top of my hip allowing for a little belly bulge during movement so I would recommend a supportive panty like the one shown in the pic. But overall, this worked best. Lori from White Plains

This is a great bra, very comfortable and supportive, which can be hard to find. I originally ordered a 34DD, but I exchanged it for a 32DD because the firt one was too big around. The cup size didn't vary much at all between the two sizes. This bra has a very smoothing effect. I've looked for a while for the bra I will use under my wedding gown, and after many failures, this one is a success! N from Maine
