I now own this bra & panties in three colors - white, the beige, and now the orchid (heather). I've owned the white the longest - it's been over a year now and with proper care is not showing the least bit of wear - and I normally wear it once a week - wash on gentle and drip dry. Highly recommend for the large busted ladies - well worth every penny. See also review on briefs !

I use this bra for everything! It is truly an all purpose bra, sexy, & comes in many pretty colors. If I could change anything I would make the straps a bit closer together, expand the sizes in the smaller ones.

I LOVE this bra! It provides great support and is wonderfully comfortable even after a LONG day. But I do agree with the previous reviewer's comments regarding the "seam issue". The major seam in the cup does create a definite "line" which would appear if you wore this bra with knits or t-shirts, but I wear bras more suited to those fabrics if I choose to wear garments that are more tightfitting. I'm not sure I would call this bra a true balcony bra however...the "lace top" of the cup (and yes, it IS stretchy) doesn't reach as high up as most of my other balcony bras...but this just makes this bra that much more appealing in my opinion. As for the band size, I found it to be true to size for me. I hand wash all my bras and would definitely recommend doing so with this bra because of the stretchy knit top on the cup...I'm not sure how it would hold up going through a machine washing, it might lose some of its shape. I would recommend this bra to friends for no other reason than that it's so comfortable to wear...the feminine feeling one gets from wearing it is an added bonus!

This is a painful review to write, since I was very hopeful about this bra. Before you buy this bra I think you should know that the cup is part stretchy lace, and the bottom half is rigid with lining- which creates the "split breast effect". This is my right size, but after I paid $12 to alter this bra to fit me, I discovered that the seam where the stetch and non stretch fabric meet has an immediate not-so-smooth bulge which shows through everything. Also, the straps are too short so there isn't enough room for adjustment, and the band seemed a bit too large compared to other fantasie bras. Very disappointed.
