Basic Beauty Seamless Underwire Bra

The title says it all. This is the ONLY bra I have found out of hundreds of different styles and brands (tried Freya, other wacoal, chantelle, etc, etc) that actually lifts my saggy 36G's up and shapes my under-bra fat nicely so it doesn't show through my shirts. This is a great T-shirt bra, too, It's very comfortable. It's true to size with the other wacoals I've tried. I bought 10 of these in different colors to last me through the years in the event they discontinue making it. LOVE it.

I feel as if I've searched for this bra my entire life. I'm a natural perky and slender 34 D. I need a design that will support and include the part of the breast that extends into the underarm. (Called the axillary tail.) This is it. I have it in half a dozen colors and have finally found it in cotton for sweaty summer days! Don't be put off that it's a full figure bra--it's not a granny bra. This will look fantastic under everything and has a good thickness for modesty without any padding. Really, really comfortable. This bra washes well, and will look and perform like new for a very long time.

Jeans, swimsuits and bras: the terrible three! I'm a 32 D and finding my size is difficult. I don't care for molded/padded cups, which makes it even harder since that seems to be the trend these days. I tried over a dozen, but none fit until I found this one. Wacoal's Basic Beauty is perfect for me. It is comfortable, gives ample support, and isn't sheer so I can wear it under white tops with no fear of embarrassment. Wacoal bras are an investment, but I continually purchase them (even with a modest income) because I know they will last if cared for properly. Hand washing/air drying is key. If you're looking for a non-padded bra, give this one a try. I hope it works as well for you as it does for me. Good luck!

This bra is exactly what I have been looking for with the exception of the scratchy band in the back. I don't know if that is a fluke thing on just this one or if it is common. Other than that, I am very happy with the product. The cups are smooth with no lines and are not made of a stretch fabric. It is an underwire and has four rows of hooks. I will purchase this product again hoping the next one is more comfortable in the back.

I love this bra. It fits comfortably and looks great under my clothes. I will be ordering more of these. It is far more comfortable than the awareness bra I ordered.

I have used this brand for years. Got my new bra with different cup sizes but same band size . I thought it looked odd so I laid it out next to my other bras and it is way shorter then my other bras. I also compared it to another brand new bras and same thing. I believe thus one was mislabeled. Returning.

I first bought this bra several months ago. Since then I have bought three more. It fits so well and looks good under all my clothes. The brown one is perfect for my skin color. They are so comfortable and I love the straps in the back. They mimic racer back bras without the hassle of getting into one. This bra works for so many reasons.

For my figure and after trying so many others I find that this brand and particular bra give me comfort and fit...I can wear all day with out having to scream to get it off...It is a modest bra under sweaters, and gives me a natural look that I can't seam to get with formed bras. The straps stay put and don't dig into my shoulders. Hope this helps

I bought this bra because I was tired of the straps of my old bras slipping off my shoulder. The straps of this bra are set closer together in the back for a bit of a V shape. The straps stay PERFECTLY in place. For that I am very happy. I concur with other reviewers who say the bra runs small, with the cups running especially small. Order up. Unfortunately, I will be returning this bra. The cups are not lined enough AT ALL. The bra is very smooth, but under shirts/dresses it's very obvious that there is not enough lining to remain modest. (Read: not enough padding/lining to hide nipples) Very disappointing. I wish the description had better explained the thinness of the cup area.

I have ordered three bras like this one and they all have the same kind of sling inside. The sling starts at the upper side and goes below the breast but does not cover the whole breast on the underside. If you have larger breast ( 32DDD ) the sling will support the area but past that point the breast just droops down. It makes the breast look totally deformed.

I’m a pretty full-figured lady – size 34H. It’s been hard to find a bra that is able to support me and is comfortable all day long – but this one has actually succeeded! The wide back strap puts most of the weight on my back, not on my shoulders, and the shoulder straps are firm (not stretchy) ensuring that we remain perky without being too bouncy. It’s lightweight enough that I don’t get hot and sweaty in the summer (which happens a lot with the foam/formed ones). The underwire doesn’t poke me in the underarm. I’m not sure if this is really a “minimizer” bra, but it make me feel like the weight is not so far “out in front” as it is in other bras – the weight is held firmly close. Some minimizer bras end up putting the mass under my arms and make me feel like I can’t put my arms down all the way – this bra keeps most of it in front of me, but still seems to have some abilities to minimize the size and keep the weight close. The first time I wore these in to work, I had three co-workers comment on how I had lost weight!! I think it was just because my breasts had their mass properly distributed so it LOOKED like I had lost weight (but I took the compliment anyway!). I have a separate set of bras that I use for working out (so I don't accidently wear a stinky workout bra to work!) but these work for light exercise, e.g. speed walking, elliptical trainer, bicycle - I have used it for the elliptical trainer and bike and it was great. It looks great under tanks, T-shirts or nice dresses… I pretty much only buy shirts/dresses that work with this bra (e.g. compared to if I needed a strapless bra) because it is so comfortable and supportive. And by the way, the price is amazing. The only cons I can think of are that they never go on sale (but at $50, how can you complain??), they are kinda plain (but who will see it anyway?), and that there are only three permanent colors: nude, brown, and black (but if you get there at the right time you can rotate in other colors – I have a pretty pink one and a nice dark blue one). I always want to try on other bras just so that I am not missing anything, but I always end up taking one (or more) of these home. Nothing else is as comfortable or looks as good. Bra buying is extremely personal, but I definitely suggest at least trying it on to see if it works for you.

While I absolutely love the other style of this brand I am disappointed in this style. It is not exactly "full coverage" as there is some 'spillage' over the top of the cups. If that does not bother you than the bra is fine. I tried this style as it came in pink and I would love to be able to have size 32DD in more colors and prints. Also, tagless would be nice.
