Playtex Women's Love My Curves Original Balconette Underwire Full Coverage Bra

I'm large busted girl with heavy breasts and typically have to have underwires in my bras. I was so surprised by this bra it has quickly become my favorite and I will be buying them in every color. It hold them up all day and I don't have to worry about the dreaded underwire snap and stab. 10/10 I highly recommend.

I absolutely love this bra. From the moment I put it on, I could feel the difference. The underwire provides excellent support without digging in. Perfect for all day wear.

I gave it a four star review; as they aren't as good as Soma Bras - but this bra is a lot cheaper....hence, a deal!

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!

It has taken some trial and error to figure out this bra, but I like it now that I've figured out what's best for me.First I ordered my usual size of 38D. The band was tight even on the biggest setting of closure options, but it was a good fit elsewhere and I felt like it would be comfortable if I could get the band size right. So I ordered the 40D to try. The band felt better but the cups arrived in a deeply grooved condition which I was unable to remove, it's very noticeable under my shirt so I didn't try to wear it. I remembered that I had a band extender in my drawer so I decided to try the 38D again with an extender and that is working well. The 38D has some wrinkles also, but they aren't nearly so prominent and are more on the upper part of the cup and not that noticeable.I did remove stars for the wrinkled grooves that these come with. That is disappointing and could be fixed with some care on their part.Personally, I find bras to be torturous in general due to nerve pain I have. This bra is fairly comfortable even to me, so I can see why so many people like this style.

This is the second bra of this brand I’ve ordered and I really like it . I got 36DD fits very good and it’s comfortable . And perfect lift .

I really wish I could give this bra AND the customer service negative stars. What a horrible experience this has been. Please BEWARE of this seller. I bought this bra in a 40D based on their size chart provided. I actually ordered 3 bras all from different sellers that same day. All the bras I ordered were a 40D based on the size charts from each separate seller. The other 2 fit perfect but this Playtex bra was extremely tight, the straps were hard, and band didn’t stretch at all and the cups were too big. I couldn’t believe how tight this bra was and that the band didn’t stretch at all. I tried it on for all of 5 seconds and said no way. I started a return on Amazon and I selected that this bra didn’t fit. It said for me to contact the seller, which I did. The seller told me that their size chart is correct and they will not refund for the wrong size. I told him that I had measured myself based on their own size chart and it was off by quite a bit. The seller again said they wouldn’t do anything. I spoke with Amazon directly and they said they’d be sending me a return label but the seller charges for return shipping. I said that’s BS because none of this was my fault, their size chart is inaccurate. I packaged up the bra and returned it. I received a refund notification saying the most ludicrous thing ever. So, I paid $19.99 for this bra. The seller made me pay return shipping AND they I charged me $19.99 for a restocking fee! So a 100% restocking fee. Amazon gave me $2.35 back for shipping. I was outraged! I called Amazon again and explained that the seller charged me a 100% restocking fee. The representative said she’d be refunding my purchase and filing a complaint against this seller to remove them from Amazon. Save your money and your stress. DO NOT buy anything from this seller!

Fit perfectly! Feels great!
