MaidenformWomen's One Fab Fit Everyday Full Coverage Racerback BraOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

My wife tried this on and instantly asked me to clip the tags off, before even looking in the mirror or trying on a top over it. She's been looking for a good racerback bra to wear with racerback tank tops, and this one was an instant favorite for fit, shape and secure full coverage.She's 5'7", 151 lbs, 36DD, 40-29-40, 55 years old. The band is non-adjustable but has some stretch, and she liked the fit. Her underbust / band size, measured without a bra on, is 32.5".You can see from the first photo that there's no gapping with the straps, unlike even her favorite standard bra. There's also no push-up effect, but it does have a plunging design that can support deep V-neck tops and dresses. The bra conforms well to her natural shape, but there's less forward projection than with some other bras. The bra is nice enough to wear with a dress, while still being secure and supportive enough for athletic activity. The second photo shows the bra under a stretch tank top.

This bra has good support and just enough padding to keep everything smooth underneath clingy t-shirts. The front clasp is easy to work and the cut is perfect for tanks and other sleeveless attire. It's well made and the underwire channel is solidly constructed; I don't see it ripping or tearing for the dreaded exposed wire. I really like this bra in terms of comfort and construction.Here's the problem: The fit is really off. I am a standard 38D in just about every bra brand, and that's not a loose 38--it's a 38 at the tightest hook; I'm probably between a 36 and a 38. The 38 band in this bra is SNUG. If you're on the loose end of a 38, definitely size up a band or two.Second, I am a standard D cup in most bra brands—no spillage. I sized up to a 38DD because of the shape of the cup and the comments of another reviewer. Even in a DD cup, there is a LOT of spillage. I loosened the straps to the longest length to relieve some of the overflow and decrease the pushup effect, which I absolutely don't want or need, and that helped quite a bit, but there's still overflow to the point of near uniboob effect. I'm keeping the bra because I can make it work and I won't wear it with deeper cut tops, and I really wanted a black bra to wear with my tank tops and dresses. But be aware that you will need to size up, at least if you are in the larger cup sizes. And definitely watch your band size carefully or it will be uncomfortably snug and there is no adjusting that with a front closure bra.

This is the most comfortable regular bra I have ever put on. It's perfect. I was worried about the racerback straps hurting my neck muscles like some racerback sports bras I've worn, but they are cut just right. They don't put any pressure on my neck at all! I don't feel constricted by it either.Also, whatever band size you are, size up. I was skeptical, but so many reviews advised it I just went for it. I'm so glad I did, it's a PERFECT fit. If I had gone with my regular band size, it would have been tight. Remember, cup size is relative to band size, so whatever cup size you are, you are a size smaller when you go up a band size. For example, I am a 34DD, and ordered a 36D and it's just right.

My problems before this bra:narrow shoulders, sore back, trigger finger (yes really - tendon related), beginning to get difficult to connect back closing bras.IF you are going from a back closing bra to a T-back or Racer back bra then you will probably need to change size as well.I was a 34D. I fit this as a 34DD.If your band size is comfortable at the smallest length,(the closure furthest in leaving 2 hanging over (not used)) then stick with your current band size. IF you are on the last eyelet with no room to expand go up another band size.If you fit well at D then go up to DD. Hope that helps. If you're use to racer backs and know your size with them then stick with it.It has a thin pad layer for no grocery store freezer mishaps. ;0This is my Favorite bra!!!!

After reading all the good reviews on this bra, I decided to try one. Sure enough, it's very comfortable.Fits me perfectly. The racerback, but embellished design makes it look great from all angles. Trusted brand, too.I wore this under a partially see-through black bodycon dress on a date with an old work acquaintance. However,late that afternoon before the date, I was having second thoughts about the bra. Its clasp is made of thin plastic.But, as comfortable as this bra is, I decided just not to worry about it. Around 7PM things somehow got a littletoo boring for the gentleman, a retired engineer, and he was falling asleep. So, I pulled the dress down a little bit to get his thoughts about the clasp thinking this would definitely wake him up. He exclaimed "It won't last the night!" and then promptly fell soundly asleep. Other tactics got him roused, but the bra stayed on the entire date. He was wrong. I took the photo with me in it a few minutes before midnight, after he took me home. It shows that the clasp held despite my fears. I'm small busted, so I'm not sure how the plastic would hold up for a woman with the typically larger bust. But, given the relatively low cost and all the other good things about it -for mepersonally, it's 5 stars. I'm 5'7", 140, 36B.-Sina

I wore this bra one time. I was at a fair with lots of people around, and ten minutes in, the freaking bra snapped! It snapped at the front clasp so I had to walk around the fair the rest of day with my arms crossed. Very disappointed.

Amazing purchase! I haven’t owned a racer back bra in about 10 years, mainly because I couldn’t find one that fit properly. I normally wear a 38D and judging from some of the other comments, mostly about the cup coverage, I went a cup size up and ordered a 38DD. I’m beyond thrilled. Fits like a glove. The band is comfortable, the cups are full coverage and I couldn’t be happier. Matter of fact, I purchased three more, different colors of course. Sorry the back shot is so fuzzy, my cell phone doesn’t take good photos through a mirror.

I was not happy that this bra arrived with dirty marks on it. I finally decided I would wash it rather than return it so I hope the marks will come off. I was very glad to find this as I have purchased similar ones in the US but find front opening bras difficult to obtain in the UK. Not sure why as they make much more sense!

Im a standard 34B and this is far too small.No where near true to size and is not fitting around my bak,. very strange back. Requested return but postage costs more than garent, total waste of money.

I love front fastening bras and being a racer back is ever better, no straps sliding down your arms and can wear it now with racer tops instead of strapless just that much more comfy. Got the black and about to order a white one ... definitely recommend!!

Sizing is completely off, comes from America so postage is expensive if you want to return.

Fabulously comfortable - only issue is the ribbon holding the fastening clasp in place isn't as good as it should be. Needs to be re-assessed by manufacturer.
