Paramour Women's Plus Size Carolina Seamless Plunge

The cup fits great. However the connecting straps at the back are not comfortable

1. This bra is only good to wear with a blouse/shirt that have a higher collar. Boat neck, scoop neck no no. The reason is the back of the bra creeps up onto your neck and the bra shows. Also, the straps pull toward your spine and show in the front of a boat/scoop. Herroom.com has a neat feature that shows how the bra will look with different tops. 2. After a while, the back creeps up and pulls my shoulders and neck forward. Maybe I'll get used to that ??? 3. The elastic under boobs is very scratchy. They should have lined that part with the soft fabric they put in the cups. 4. I comes up pretty high into my arm pits causing discomfort to my arms and limits my mobility.

these bras give great support

Ladies, if you are super busty BUY THIS BRA. Mine literally arrived 15 minutes ago. After trying it on I immediately sat down to order another color and write this review. Size wise I range from a 38K-40G depending on the brand. I have tried Soma, Hotmilk, Medela, Cake Lingerie, Goddess, Elomi, and Parfait by Affinitas. This is the best bra in existence! This brand was introduced to me at my local Ann's Bra Shop where I was sized as a 42G. The associate sold me a Paramour Vivien and I nearly cried with happiness. For the first time, I felt SUPPORTED and even though it was a beige bra, the details were so delicate I still felt like I was in a 'pretty' bra not a 'old lady' bra. (My apologies to any mature woman reading this - it's a fine achievement to become a lovely elder lady but in my 20's I still want to feel attractive in my undergarments!) The silhouette of that bra was amazing! My breasts were high without being in my face, together so that they weren't under my arms, but separate so that I didn't have uniboob. The sidepanels were low cut so as not to irritate freshly shaved underarms or get smothered in deodorant. The design also allowed for me to wear lower cut shirts without my bra hanging out! I was in heaven. I wore it all day chasing after kids and shopping and I COULD NOT FEEL IT AT ALL. I thought it was the best bra on this earth. THEN, I put on this bra - the Carolina. Ladies, IT'S EVEN BETTER! It's everything I just described about the Vivien but even more comfortable, even more supportive, and even prettier!! I did order a 40G as my 42G slips a little when I wear it. This fits like a glove. The back isn't going ANYWHERE and neither are the straps. The lace isn't irritating either. I'm excited for summer to wear this beauty and not feel like the giant boob freak in a tank top. The only negative is that this bra is definitely a case of bra first then deodorant (so, not a huge deal at all and something I'll wager at least half of us do in that order anyway) and it's only available in the standard giant bra colors of black and beige.

This is a great bra, HOWEVER, a few things to note....Before purchasing, i read the reviews on Amazon, as well as Target (where it's also sold)...and one thing that was consistent was the reviewers stating the band size was small and the cups were too large...So what did I do? Ordered a band size up and down a cup size, PERFECT fit! That is the magic formula for getting the right fit! Another thing i will say is i agree with a comment another reviewer said on here, that the straps in the front come up to an awkward place near your armpits...I had to pull the cups up to sit right and by the time i got them where they needed to be to feel secure and supportive, i had the plastic slider digging into my arm. HOWEVER...I wrapped a piece of moleskin around it and never noticed it again. Depending on what tops i wear you may or may not be able to see the moleskin, but it's really not that big of a deal to me. The lace on the back is beautiful and it looks very cool peeking out underneath various tops i tried it on with. I am a DDD and felt absolutely secure in this thing, which is a hard feat. The cups are molded, which are my favorite type of cups...they lay smooth and flawless under tops and have a rounded, not pointed or awkward shape. I tried this on with some halter style tops i had which we all know are backless at the upper back and it looked really cool with them. Saved me the annoyance of a strapless bra which doesnt do much for DDD's in the first place. Another thing i'd like to mention is that based on the photo i was initially worried the lace on the back would be too delicate/thin to support everything going on up front, BUT it's much sturdier than it appears in the pic...I didn't fear it tearing or getting snagged on anything. Other reviewers stated it was difficult for them to put on and off, but i did not find it any more difficult than any other bra i own. I totally recommend this bra, as long as you order up a size or 2 in the band, and down in the cup size. I ordered the black and loved it so much i came just now to order the nude color. Perfect for all those cute summer tanks that small chested women can go braless in, but the bigger busted gals like me cannot.

This bra fits well, and is very comfortable. It's designed in a way that the straps never move -- they are secured by the cool design in the back. I never have to mess with the straps or tug them into place -- not once, all day long. It is strange to put on the first few times your wear it, but no bra is simple to get into, if you think about it. Usually we turn a bra backwards, clasp it, shimmy it around, then awkwardly wing our way into the straps. Or, with a front close, one arm goes in easily, then the other is a more complicated stretch and straighten process before we have to bend over to shimmy in and latch the clasp. Compared to those two methods, this one is simple. You just put it on like a shirt, over your head with your arms through, then you reach around back and do the clasp by feel. The only downside is that the design of the back comes up quite high, and sometimes peeks out over the collars of some of the dresses and tops I wear it with. It's not a problem for me, because I wear my long hair down, which covers it. Plus, the back of the bra is gorgeous! But if you want it to be completely concealed, the place that may disappoint is the upper back part. Once I realized how comfortable and secure this bra is, I began wearing it almost every day. I have it in both colors and it's my new favorite.

LOVE LOVE THIS BRA! Soooo comfortable and really pretty. I will buy more.

I love this bra. It is comfortable and flexible. I highly recommend.

The bra was really nice, although im my case the cup size wasn’t quite right, so I returned it with the intention of buying another size. In the couple days between my purchase and receiving of the bra, the price went up by 13$, so I’ve decided not to re-order. Really disappointed by that, because I definitely would have replaced the one with the wrong sizing.

Cumple con mis epecttivas, no sabia que la parte de atraas era halter pero la verdad me gusto mucho que lo fuera

I ordered this because I wanted something cute with a bralette sort of appearance but with the support I need. Can easily wear something with an exposed back, as it hardly looks like a bra and more a decorative undershirt. I normally wear 34F in Freya and I ordered this in a 36DDD because I wanted a more loose comfortable band that wont create "back rolls"... and this fits perfectly! Gives a nice shape, and the cups are just the right size. The straps are a bit close to your armpits by design, and some may find it uncomfortable but I didn't find it too annoying.
