This is the first bra I have found to fit properly in 20 years. It does everything it says it will & more. It gives complete coverage, great lift, doesn't ride up & is comfortable. My clothes fit better with this bra because of the superior lift. I look better in my clothing as well. It also comes in the widest range of sizes out there. After 3 months of almost daily wear it's still it great shape. Ordering more today & I would highly recommend this bra to any woman with naturally large breasts! MCP from Atlanta Ga USA

LOVE this bra! LOVE it! Fits beautiful and looks beautiful on .....comfortable and also pretty.....I am extremely hard to fit.......and this fits like it was made especially for me.........I am 5'2" 128 lbs.........and wear a 32DDD It has taken me literally years to find bras that fit.........I can't thank Her Room enough for being soooo very patient with me ordering so many sizes and styles and returning and re-ordering........and I have found 2 bras that I love! SWEET!! I will indeed be ordering more of these 2 bras in blk and perhaps another color than what I have....but love the color I have.....But, do need a black........If you are as hard to fit as I am....try these styles.......you'll be happy you did........yes, they are very expensive.......but it's best to have one or 2 great fitting bras and be happy and comfortable than to have 10 ill fitting bras and be miserable. Thank You again live love and laugh a lot.{ in a beautiful bra} terri Terri from lecanto Fl 34461 USA

It's both sexy and functional: it's my prettiest bra and also gives me the perfect lift and shape for T-shirts. amcd from New York City

This is a beautiful bra and provides very good uplift. Only complaint would be the horizontal line across the cups is quite prominent and shows through most shirts but this should be less of a concern with heavier clothing of fall and winter seasons. Meanwhile I wear a thin camisole under summer shirts and this is an adequate fix. Doesn't completely eliminate the lines but its manageable with a camisole. AJ from CT

This is my first Wacoal bra and worth the extra $ over department store bras. Love this bra. Perfect fit and no riding up in the back. Karen from CA

What a beautiful bra - the only problem, I should have ordered in a 38 G - think that is really my size, and this was just too tight, so returned via Priority Mail to exchange for 38G. Gorgeous bra, and I can hardly wait for the 38 G to get here. Nancy from Fairfield, IA USA

Initially thought the cups were too big. Later fine-tuned my technique in trying on bras, and realized the cups were actually too small! Ladies, make sure you "swoop and scoop" your breast flesh into the cups. It makes all the difference in the world. For me anyway, a bra can actually appear too big at first glance, until I swoop and scoop, and then find I have bulging flesh in the center. (My breasts are very wide set and wide in shape). I "swooped and scooped" my way into a 34E and 34F in this same bra, and I STILL had bulging in the center. Finally, I tried this in 34G and it was "too much bra". The cups were just too big for me at that point, coming up way too far into my armpits. Jennifer

I have worn Wacoal bra's for over 30 years. I almost switched brands recently because Wacoal keeps deleting the styles I have loved, but this style has renewed my faith in Wacoal so, good job. I will continue to be a faithful customer. Love HerRoom, it is convenient and easy and saves me gas and time from having to drive to a store that sells this product.

Perfect bra for big breasted women! Also great for women w/ 2 different sized breasts, it is not noticed, hides well. Great colors and design for young & flirty, I have black & nude! Even a great wear for activity/working out, holds everything in place! Stephanie from Plantation, Florida, USA

Purchased this bra along with some other brands to see which ones fit the best. Well this is the second Wacoal bra I purchased and I am very satisfied. The bra was a bit scratchy and a little uncomfortable at first, but I think with a couple of washings with some fabric softener it should ease up. I did a review on another Wacoal style and as with this one the only reason for the four stars, was the lack of selection of colors. I don't understand why manufactures feel just because there are women wearing plus sizes, that we don't appreciate sexy styles and colors. This is a sexy looking bra but would be great to see some other colors besides black and beige. Maybe blue, brown or even a pink would liven it up a bit. Please Wacoal you make awesome products just open up the selection of colors and I am positive sales would go through the roof. Tami from Kerhonkson, NY USA

I love this bra! I had originally ordered the 32G (since that's what I wear in a sports bra) and found it to be too big in the cups (yay! I'm not as big in the cups as I thought I was!), so I had to exchange it for the 32DDD. I love how it sits directly against my body exactly as it's supposed to (which is not something that happens to me too often with bras) and the cups keep me looking perky. I have found with the bras that are slightly more pointy (like this one), my breasts actually appear smaller, since the parts that stick out look a little smaller (I hope you all get my drift!). :) Now I want to order more!

I have tried so many bras and seldom write reviews because I don't have strong feelings about them, until this one. I am so tired of sagging; this is the first bra that actually holds me up throughout the day so that I don't have to "readjust" constantly. Yet, it doesn't feel tight or binding. I just got the bra and hope that it remains this way for a long time. Wacoal makes great bras, expensive, but great. However this is the first one that is comfortable and truly supports. I'm thrilled with mine. Judy from Roswell GA

Phenomenal bra. This is the first time I have purchased online a style of bra that I have not previously tried on at a store. It fits EXACTLY like a bra should. Comfortable. Pretty. Does the job it is supposed to. Can't ask for more than that! Lori from Miami, FL

Just received this bra and was excited to get it due to one of the reviews that I got.. however I was disappointed when I put it on as it made my breasts look like torpedos!! I need a bra that will make me look natural.. any suggestions. I am 5 feet tall and a 36G!!

Wacoal Response: The bra you bought is a three piece cup which gives great support and fits very well. However, it is not a minimizing bra, it does have very nice projection. You are probably not looking for projection so you need a bra that minimizes or at least gives a rounded look to the bust. You should consider Wacoal 85122 or our new style. Wacoal 855192.

This bra is perfect for me. It has the great lift without letting anything bulge over the top or squeeze out of the sides. Even with the coverage it is still very pretty and I don't feel like I have a full plate of armor on either. Sexy retro chic. mts from Kansas City

I have tried on up to 10 bras at a time and only taken one that fit better than the rest but was still not THE BRA, this one I put on and actually laughed out loud with joy. The style is very beautiful, it holds everything up and out, takes the pressure off my shoulders and does not look like the bra that my grandma wore. Diana from Ilinois
