PlaytexWomen's 18-Hour Seamless Smoothing Full Coverage Bra #4049

Having larger sized breasts (34D) I have to have a supportive bra. I was looking for something that wasn't underwire, not constricting, but still supportive. At first I was t sure cause playtex seems like an old lady brand and I am young. I am glad I ordered it because it is everything I needed. It is very supportive and minimizing yet not uncomfortable. It has nice wide adjustable straps. The back closure is a wide 3 prong closure for more support. It is polyester so it retains its shape and doesn't stretch. The sizing is correct so if you order correctly you won't need any stretch. The color and texture are exactly as depicted. If you are looking for a comfortable bra that supports this is a good choice for you.

Was skeptical at first purchasing this brand, thought it would come with the Madonna cone like look which is ugly, but after putting it on and wearing it for 8hrs - love it... love it!!Wore it at work and it felt like I had nothing on! It was super COMFORTABLE, NO ITCHING, NO SQUEEZING, it is very well made, the material is wonderful, not cheap fabric, the bra gives you the exact support you need, the cups section is very light, and still gives you the modesty you need.This is by far the best bra I have ever worn! (Before purchasing this brand, I purchased "Bali" and it was way more expensive than this bra however, the comfort level was a big fat F), now this bra I give an A+ :)(Oh, for the customers who are purchasing, no need to fuss with your size, or trying to figure out if it will fit you correctly - I am a 38D and bought my EXACT size and it fit PERFECTLY)! I hope this helps.( Note to Manufacturers: please make more in other beautiful colors, you won't regret it)!

Here's the thing: womens' breasts are all so different - in size, shape, distribution; weight; composition. So no bra is ever going to get rave reviews from everyone.For my 55-year old breasts, this bra fits well and gives me comfort and reasonable support without an underwire. I HATE underwires. I've tried many, many kinds and they all hurt - "comfortable underwire" is an oxymoron! In my experience, this bra holds up my less than perky girls with a thick band below the cups. This bra helps corral the side breast tissue that most older women tend to get, especially if they've had kids and the wide back helps smooth the dreaded back fat bulge. When you put the bra on, lean forward and kind of scoop all the breast tissue inside the cups. The high sides help hold everything in place and don't rub. I feel I have a nice shape in this bra, natural not uni-booby.But beware - it is NOT padded (although it is made from a fairly thick fabric and is not see-thru, at least not in the beige color), so if the temperature gets chilly, you may get a bit of nipple showage (unwanted? desired? depends...), so I recommend using those nipple covers (the silicone ones work great and are comfortable) if you expect cool temps and don't want the resulting effects.The sizing for me was a bit tricky. In my mind, I'm still that youthful 34B, but in reality, I'm now a 36 D or DD, depending on the bra. However, finding a 36DD is near impossible in most bras. The 38D, hooked on the highest set, seems okay for now.I have tried on many, many, many bras in my search for the perfect one (thank you Amazon for free returns!). What I really want is something like hairspray for boobs - arrange them just like you want then presto - they'll stay just where you put 'em! Or maybe a shrink wrap type of thingy (breathable, of course) that wraps and holds the perfect shape. But alas, until that day comes, I've at least found a workable solution that is supportive, comfortable, provides a nice shape and is not expensive.

I love this bra! I don't like underwire bras at all - just not comfortable - but a lot of non-underwire bras give poor support. This is one of the best bras I have found in a long time that is comfortable and supportive. I'm a 44C, and comfortable, well-made bras in that size range are hard to find unless you are willing to pay in the $40 and up range. This bra is every bit as good as those other pricey bras, and Amazon has it at a very reasonable price. I will keep buying this bra as long as it is available.

I've gone from a 48 to a 38 band size, lost 115 pounds, and I have some serious droopage in the tata and side torso. Those of you who've also lost a lot of weight know what I mean, right? Well, I have lived in underwire to get the support I need. My faves are Wacoal and some of the Avenue and Lane Bryant ones I still wear. However, I wanted a wirefree for the days when I was all casual and wanted comfort and still look good (not squashed in sports bras that I use to workout).Well, dang. These are great. And so much less expensive than my beloved Wacoals.The babies are HIGH and PERT and in control with some dip between (I hate monoboob). They keep my looser side skin in nice. I can wear it all day without feeling like I'm being squashed by a giant squid tentacle.I just ordered 2 more (black, beige). These work fine for non-impact workouts, like Pilates and Yoga, too. Isometrics. Weight lifting, that sort of stuff.I love these. Cheap and effective. And no weird seams. I hate seams cause I live in yoga wear and t-shirts. :D My go-to casual bra now. 38DDD. And they stay up. Woohoo!
