Wacoal Soft Embrace Front Close Underwire Bra 851311 Reviews

I was hoping for a racerback bra I could wear under racerback clothing, but unfortunately the straps at the back are too wide at their base; they show under everything I tried this on with. Also, the bra sets my breasts unusually far apart. Deb from Washington, USA

Fits well and is comfortable, I just didn't realize there is NO padding in this bra at all so if that's what you need this isn't the bra for you. Kelly from Burien

I love that this is a true racer back bra (not a "convertible" bra), as the convertibles are impossible to get into. It fits well and is very comfortable, and I am not constantly pulling my bra strap back up. I just wish it were slightly padded. Janice from East Palo Alto, CA

Due to rheumatoid arthritis I am switching all my bras to front closure. This is the first unlinked bra that I have bought, but it is surprisingly comfortable. It fits true to size and is very comfortable. I highly recommend Susan from Yankton SD

I purchased one and came back to order three more! I just had shoulder surgery and needed a front closure bra. The fit is perfect and flattering. The bonus of not having straps falling off my shoulder makes me want to throw out all my other bras! Dona from Union Dale

Wow!!! Perfect!!! Thanks to Her Room and Wacoal! this bra fits perfectly! I took a chance ordering online (Her Room) and was not disappointed. I'm so happy wearing/washing it every day while my other bras now lanquish in a drawer. Fit: excellent. Ann from Mountain View, CA 94041

Ordered per your size chart and it was way to small. Was not even close and I have 3 different manufactures bras and they are all the same size and this one looks like a young teen fit. So gave it to my grand daughter who wears a 32a.

HerRoom Response: We feel this bra runs true to size. It is front closure so has no band adjustability. Janis from Phoenix, AZ USA

When I was fitted, Walcoal was the bra that worked for me. But I wanted the same type of bra with the support in a t-back. It fits and works perfectly! I can wear it with my t-back shirts when exercising. Glad I knew my size in this brand! Terri from Sacramento

This is the second Wacoal Soft Embrace Front Close Underwire Bra that I purchased from HerRoom recently. This style is comfortable and does not have the bulk of cups. In addition, I am able to fasten the front close after recent shoulder surgery. Sue from Pocatello, ID, US

The descrlption said the cups were molded; they are not. I didn't feel like dealing with a return, so I kept it. However it's not what I wanted.

HerRoom Response: The cups of this bra are molded and unpadded. I believe you may have wanted a contour cup bra. A contour cup bra is both molded and has modesty foam in the cups. Roni from Glassboro

Absolutely the best bra I have ever owned and I am 79 yrs old. Wacoal is my go to brand. I have never been able to get a pretty soft comfortable supportive bra in my size before. Usually have to go up to a 38 to get the 3D cup. Finally have a bra that fits me perfectly without my boobs popping out the top. Joyce from Bethany Beach

This is the size I usually wear but this was was too small around the band and in the cups. Linda from Hull

This bra runs small. I had to size up from a 34 to a 36. The front closure clip is plastic, not metal. Not sure if it will prove durable or break.

Wacoal Response: Most front closures are made of plastic as it is not healthy to have any metal touching the body. We also suggest checking out the Bra Fitting Center to find your perfect size in this bra. Cynthia from Aspen

This bra runs small in the cup. Unfortunately, I'd cut the tag off before I realized that it wasn't comfortable.

Wacoal Response: We rarely hear that this bra runs small in the cup as it is made of supplex which has high stretch. This bra does run a bit lower in the center to accommodate the front close so that might be what you are referring to as "small in the cup". Virginia from Arlington, VA

I would like the front closure bra made by wacoal about 10 years ago without racer back and more sheer. Abc from Def
