Bra lessons
When it comes to body shapes, ladies, we're all snowflakes. As far as my snowflakes are concerned, this bra is a perfect match.Pros: For me, this bra is supportive, and seriously minimizing (I lost 15 pounds the moment I put it on) but still super comfortable. The way I'm shaped, I don't have any problems with the side flaps being too big, they hug my body smoothly and eliminate that ever-so-sexy armpit bulge that appears when I wear a bra that doesn't fit me well. It fits true to size, and I love the shape it gives me.So, if you’re my identical twin with the same goals for your appearance, this is the bra you should get.If you’re not, you can disregard my review because it isn’t going to help you decide whether or not this specific bra will work for you. But I’d still like to help you out, because buying and wearing a bra is challenging. That’s why they make training bras.I don’t remember practicing to wear the rest of my clothes.The following information should help you with bras in general, enjoy!1. Measure yourself properly. Don't guess, don't assume, and learn the proper way to do it. Take three minutes and google “how to measure myself for a bra” or visit the website of a reputable lingerie brand and do as they say.2. Don't cheat yourself out of a great fit because your size is not what you thought it was. We typically enter the world of bras at a age of when our comparison muscles are in their highest gear and our peers are convinced that some bra sizes are more desirable than others. Lots of young ladies determine their size in the dressing room, trying on articles until one seems like it's right, and assuming it must be accurate. Proper measurements are often skipped entirely. Cup size stereotypes are rampant amongst women of all ages and it causes problems when we take our measurements and get a number-letter combo we didn't expect. If this happens to you, relax, it's normal.Actually, it's awesome.Your girls are about to get a serious upgrade.If you've been wearing the wrong size, stop immediately. You're robbing your girls of their glory when you behave as if math doesn't apply to you. Go get the right size, whatever that may be. When you finally put on a bra that fits properly, any discomfort you feel about the letter/number on the tag will vanish. You'll be too busy marveling at how much better you instantly look and how comfortable you suddenly are.3. Measure yourself at least once a year. Maybe when you set the clocks back and check the batteries in the smoke detectors. Believe it or not, bodies change shape even when weight stays the same. Sounds like b.s., totally isn’t.4. Understand that a bra’s support comes from the band, not the straps. Shoulder straps dig when they're asked to do a job they aren't designed to do. If they're what's holding your girls up because you’re wearing the wrong size, you will be uncomfortable, even if the bra is well made.5. A bra that fits properly will sit flush against your chest at the center (right between lefty and righty.) This is true even for those of us who are especially blessed in the size department. If your bra does not meet your skin between your girls, separating them into two separate entities, you are wearing the wrong size and it's causing an unflattering uniboob effect.6. If your cups are wrinkly they're to big.7. If your spilling out of them they are too small. You have twins, not quadruplets.8. The hooks of a new bra should fit into the outermost loops. As it wears, the elasticity will naturally give and you will switch to the inner loops to keep it fitting well. The clasp of a bra is not made to determine your size. If you have to pull the clasp all the way in to wear it at first, you need to measure yourself again.9. Use the right detergent. ForeverNew is specially formulated for lingerie and will extend the life or your new bras. It will also revive your old ones. It removes all traces of odor, sweat, skin oils, and deodorant. I don't know how it works, but it's like a magic trick. (I don’t work for this company, and they aren’t compensating me to drop their name.)10. Bras are supposed to be washed by hand in cold water. (Did you just roll your eyes and pre-ignore this part? Be honest!)Fill the sink, put a tiny amount of ForeverNew in it (if you see suds it's too much) add your bra and swish the water around with your hands for about 10 minutes. Rinse and press between a towel (microfiber will do this faster) to get some of the moisture out. Hang to dry.11. Hang dry on a hanger, fully clasped and by both straps so it keeps its shape.12. If you don't hand-wash (it doesn’t make you a bad person, it just means you’ve got other things to do) use the delicate cycle and ForeverNew. Use cold water. If you need to remove a fragrance use the laundress’s sport spray. It works equally well for body odor and strong perfume. Use a lingerie bag (it will keep your straps from wedging in the washer parts) and always make sure the bra is clasped before you put it in the washer. This protects your other clothing from getting snagged and your hooks from bending out of shape.13. Never put a bra in the dryer. It's will ruin it. The fabric isn't meant to withstand that kind of heat and will lose its elasticity. The tumbling will bend the underwire out of shape as the metal becomes softer when it’s heated up. And the friction will wear out the material. Just say no. If you're desperate, dry a wet bra in front of a fan for 10-15 minutes or use a hair dryer on cool.Hope this was helpful...Now go be gorgeous!

Perfect!
I’ve tried minimizing bras in the past and this is the first one that actually MINIMIZES my breasts! It’s very comfortable, soft, firm enough to hold not only my chest but my breast tissue under my arms and my back fat in just perfect! My tops actually fit good again!!

nice bra
This bra fits well...sometimes the wire pushes out on sides, but I just give an easy bend to put them back inward. I first ordered the print bra, then because I liked that so well, ordered the nude and black. They are nice, but they don't fit as well as the first... they are definitely a bit tighter. The only problem with the print one is the background is a greyish white, so it always looks a bit dirty, no matter how much it's washed. But because it's the most comfortable one I have (in a loaded drawer full) I use it the most.Update... purchased another one of this same and the new one really is a white background... maybe different fabric/dye lot, but this is much better.

Wonderful bra!!
OMG!! LOVE this bra!! I’m ordering another in the tan and one in black!! I’m 5’ 8” 137lbs, wear a large 36C or 34D and because I’m super conscientious about the. If girls, I really want a good minimizer. Unfortunately, most minimizer‘s cause significant back bulges because they need to be relatively snug to hold things in place. This bra has a wonderful border of a light seamless fabric around the back and under the arms which doesn’t cause bulging the way elastic does. The fabric is also super soft sonthe bra is really comfortable. The other bonus is the fact that you can cross the straps in the back for sleeveless tops!! I’ve never found a minimizer bra with a cross back and the cross back bras I’ve tried on in the past usually don’t have straps that are long enough to cross comfortably.

Beautifying
This bra is everything I was hoping for -- good support and really comfortable fabric. I lowered the stars on comfort only because an underwire is never as comfortable as one without. However, this bra fit perfectly and gave me great lines because of the underwire support. An added plus for me was the design of the back because the straps didn't slip as they often do. Also the little side panels helped reduced overlap in that area. Glad I took a chance on a bra that I wasn't able to try on. Thanks!

great fit but weird side fabric
This bra is super comfortable and minimizes well. The problem is the weird fabric that sticks up on the sides. I see no purpose in this, and it sticks up and the outline of it can sometimes show through if I'm wearing tight shirts.

SO LONG, VICTORIA'S SECRET BRAS
I love this bra. I have purchased three so far, and I intend to buy more in the future. This bra holds the girls in place without being as big and bulky as a sports bra. It's comfortable. The fabric is fine. Doesn't seem cheaply made. One very tiny problem: sometimes the nipples poke through when it's chilly. I would like better nipple coverage. The price is also right, especially compared to what I've been buying from Victoria's Secret, which doesn't seem that great to me anymore.
