PLAYTEX womens Secrets Underwire Balconette T-shirt Bra for Full Figures (Retired Colors)

I have a DDD or G cup that is hard to keep perky after 2 kids and 4 years of nursing. THIS IS THE BEST BRA EVER! It puts the girls back up on the pedestal they used to be on and makes me look 15 pounds thinner because of how it shapes and lifts. The center of my breasts are positioned midway between my shoulder and elbow, just like on the model so my small waist is working it again. Droopy boobs add weight to your figure because they hide waist definition, perk them up as shown and you instantly look slimmer. The straps are great, wide without looking like a strait jacket and the material is silky and smooth. It is a surprisingly sexy looking bra for all it does in comfort; I have sexier bras, but they are like stiletto heels, meant to be seen and not worn all day or else you will succum to crippling agony. I got myself some matching silky undies to match and I feel well put together and held well in all the right places. Getting ready in this my hubby said I looked great, he has seen the girls in all stages so I take his compliment as fact :D

Love these, very comfortable and hold you up nicely. I will be buying more for sure.

38C. Great bra, gives great shape and support. I love the design. 4 stars because the under wire can cut in a bit on the rib cage.

It has taken me a long time to find a bra that fits the way I like - including shopping at the store - but this one fits. The band holds nicely against the ribcage and offers real support for larger-chested women. It seems that if you have a larger chest you have to spend an insane amount of money to find a quality bra but that's not the case here. I don't expect it to last for a year given the price but it's extremely affordably priced so I can buy as many as I need. It has thick, supportive cups and a wide band that won't force the straps to do the work. A lot of cheaper bras that come in larger sizes are really flimsy and leave you feeling like your bra is just barely holding on. Also I find that in addition to giving you the coverage and support you need it has little extras like patterns or lace to make you feel pretty. Its both functional and flattering. I am definitely pleased with this bra. The only issue you may have is needing to try a couple sizes. Like a lot of women I can wear a few different sizes depending on the shape of the cups, etc. With this one If I wear my regular size there is an unsightly gap at the top. If you are like me and are more full at the bottom of the breast then keep your band size and go down a cup size so the bra will fit top to bottom. Other than that I would recommend this.

Though the size fits me well, 40B, the balconette style means that the straps keep falling down, no matter how I adjust them. You can’t see it in the photos, but it’s how the straps are sewn into the cups in a way that just doesn’t work for me. Comfortable and it looks good, but who wants slipping straps all day long?

I definitely needed some new bras when my old ones were so stretched out in the straps that they wouldn't hold me up well enough no matter how much I tightened them. I used to buy expensive bras but I wanted to look for less expensive options that are still good quality. I've seen Playtex bras in the stores for many years and figured I would check them out. I tried out a different Playtex bra which I didn't like as much so I decided to try this one. I love it so much I ended up purchasing seven of them in different colors! This Playtex bra is exactly the bra I wanted! It is a balconette style, which is perfect if you have shirts that might dip down a bit so you shouldn't have to worry about showing off the bra cups. It has underwire that helps to keep the girls in place and so far, it feels very comfortable. I haven't had any problems with it popping out. The straps and cups are lightly padded, which is just what I wanted. I don't like bras that are heavily padded because I am a 36D and I don't need to add any more bulk on top. It has a triple-hook closure with three hooks for each of the three sizes for a total of nine hooks. The straps are adjustable and the back of the bra seems very breathable and looks like it is made of mesh. This bra is made of a mixture of nylon, spandex, polyester, cotton, and polyurethane foam. Washing instructions say to hand wash cold and line dry. I always throw hand wash items in a lingerie bag in the washing machine, line dry them and I've never had a problem. I've washed these bras a number of times like this and they still are in great condition. These bras are made in Indonesia. As I said, I initially purchased one of these bras and loved it so much, I ordered a total of six more! I have nude, nude jacquard, gentle peach rose jacquard, two mother-of-pearl jacquard, and two black jacquard. I love the print on the latter two colors because it looks like flower petals to me. I love to have black bras for wearing under darker shirts but I also like the light-colored bras for wearing under lighter-colored shirts. I especially love the mother-of-pearl color because it's more of an ivory or bone color and is softer than white but lighter than nude. I loved it so much I bought two of that color! I find these bras very comfortable to wear all day. The underwire is very comfortable and hasn't bothered me at all but I will update this review if that changes. The material is soft and comfortable and supports me well so I don't feel droopy. My old bras had lost their elasticity and I looked like I was sagging but now, I'm perkier and feel more comfortable too. I've always been a 36D and I purchased 36D in these bras which fit perfectly so I feel these bras fit true to size. I love these bras and am glad I finally decided to purchase some new ones! They are comfortable, come in a variety of colors and prints, and are affordable so you can replace all of your old bras if you need to, which is what I did. As long as these bras hold up for a reasonable amount of time, I will continue to purchase them. I will update this review if anything happens to alter my opinion. If you like the lightly-padded, balconette style and don't feel like going to a store to try them on, I highly recommend this bra and to order your regular size!

This bra is absolutely AMAZING for us bigger chested girls! It offers fantastic support while being the most comfortable bra I have ever owned. I have been wearing these bras for over 8 years since my previous go to bra was discontinued at Fredrick's. I used to purchase them at Kohls and JcPenny but they either quit carrying them or the price is $48. These are regularly $19.99 here for the basic black but they have some very pretty colors as well which are slightly more expensive. I keep a few in my cart and when they drop to $17.99 I always grab a few. I wear my bras day and night and this bra is so comfortable I don't even notice i have it on. No cup spillage in the front, no back skin/fat rolls in back. Stays in place. Only a triple clasp so no wide band to irritate your underarm area. Washes up great on gentle with hanging to dry. Runs true to size. If you're looking for the perfect every day, comfortable bra that makes the girls look great, you have to give this bra a try!
