Exquisite FormFully Womens Front Close Posture Bra with Lace 5100531

The quality of this bra is excellent. The back support is the best. I do not feel anything, which is such an improvement. Before bras with this back support, the backs of my bras cut in me as well as moved up. I was constantly having to pull down the back of my bras. When I put this on, I forget about it. The straps are comfortable and stable. They contribute to the overall support.Love the front opening. I only wear real t-shirts as home. I do, however, mainly wear knit tops that are a thin, slinky texture. The silhouette is smooth and do not see the seaming along the cup. It is also smooth in the back since it is staying put! That alone is a reason to buy this bra.The straps are not adjustable. I do not consider that a minus with a support bra like this. It is difficult to make the wider and thicker straps adjustable. They are too long for me. When wearing a bra with adjustable straps, I always have to pull them up to about their shortest position. I think it ludicrous to complain about a bra without adjustable straps when they don't fit. The possible sizes between people is endless. Therefore, I shortened the straps. It does not take long to do, but now they fit perfectly. I would rather have these straps than thinner adjustable ones. As long as they are too long, it is easy to shorten. If they were too short, I would lengthen them b/c I sew, but I imagine most would just return.There is one sizing aspect of this bra that I almost took away one star. I read the reviews and saw the suggestion to size up. There were enough that I did just that. I was a 40D at the time and ordered 42D. The fit around was fine and when I shortened the straps everything was fine. After I wore it a while I began to realize that the cup size really was a little too roomy. It was not terrible, but it really looked like the 40D would be better, however I figured it would not fit around since there was no wiggle room on this one.I have been losing weight slowly and got this in July.Instead of ordering a 40D in anticipation of losing weight I went ahead and ordered a 38D. I am writing this in Sept. Even though my measurements were 38, the bra did not close. I did shorten the straps as before. Everything was fine except for the fit around my chest. I went to the fabric store and got a bra extender. The longest one had 4 eyes to the bra's 6. I got another one with 3 eyes - cut off one row of eyes, stitched them together and worked fine. Now the 38D does fit my 38D measurements.This bra has only one row of eyes. It is such a good support bra otherwise, I would encourage the company who makes it to add at least one row of eyes -- two would be better. No a lot of customers would add the rows, instead would send it back. I like a variety of bras, so when my weight has stabilized, I will buy another. It is hard to find this quality in a support bra. Knowing this, you need to either go up one size or buy your size and figure on getting a bra extender.

Super Super too small. Has a tiny bit of strtch. Ordered my normal size. Could not even get it on. Has front closure. Could not even get arms through it.This is VERY UNDERSIZED.i would need one 4 tomes at least just to get my arms in it much less close it.

I just had rotator cup surgery along with some other bone surgery. It's going to be a long time before I can hook a back hook bra. I ordered a front hook bra from the manufacturer of the current bras that I have, and the fit is tight and horrible.I realized that my bust is entirely too big to go without a bra. I decided to try a back support bra. I decided to give Exquisite Form a try.I normally wear a 42i. I also design and sew clothing.I advise all those who wear BACK hook bras, to disregard maufacturers instructions and to get the correct bra size by doing the following:Band size is determined by measuring under the bust. If you're under 36" and you're measurement lands on an odd number, round up 1. If your 36" or above, and you land on an odd number, round DOWN. Take the measurement across the fullest part of your chest, subtract your measurement from above to find your cup size. 75% of women will find that they need a smaller band and larger cup. Measuring like this ensures that the weight and support of your bust is carried by the frame, not your shoulders.However, after the problem with the other brand of front hook bra, and reading comments about this bra, I decided to take measurements like Exquisite instructed.I took my upper chest measurement. It landed on an odd number, so I rounded UP. Then I took my fullest bust measurement, subtracting the upper chest measurement to get the difference. This put me at 46DD and not 42i. A back hook bra in 46DD would ride up, because the frame would be way too big.Well, I got the bra today and I'm very surprised to find that it fits well. So far, it's not riding up. It's supporting my bust without putting undue stress on my shoulders. My bust is lifted and separated. The hook closure lays on my chest when I'm standing up, as it should. If you get a trampoline between the girls, your brain is too small.I've only ordered one bra, but I'm about to order another. The bra has firm, non-stretch support, which is why measuring is so important. Since the back and sides are wide, they control skin roll; there's no excess back or underarm bulge. Everything lays flat, which is much more slimming.I had no real difficulties putting the bra on. I can see where this is an issue if the bra isn't properly fitted.The bra is well made and comfortable, as long as it's measured right.

After I ordered I began receiving messages that my order was delayed. It was several weeks before I received the product.The product is sold in asian sizes. While I managed, after researching, to purchase a product that fits in its circumference, (slightly large actually) the cups and shoulders are small. The shoulder straps are much too short for the circumference and non-adjustable. They are made of a light, cheap, synthetic, somewhat shiny fabric. It is soft, yet I still find it scratchy, perhaps, because the item cannot fit correctly.I appreciate the front closure however they resemble, or rather, are, made of cheap fabric sized for small, slight body-types. The fabric doesn’t breathe. I would neither recommend nor purchase again. 38dd, I ordered the 42/95. I think they’re XXXL
