PLAYTEXWomen's Secrets Underwire Bra 4823, Full Coverage Balconette T-Shirt Bra for Full Figures

I followed the sizing instructions provided (I measured 38 inches above bust, 44 inches around bust) which resulted in me ordering a 38DDD. When it arrived, the band was a little tight and the cups had too much space. I reordered a 40D AND a 38DD. The band on the 40D was comfortable, the cups seemed the right size, but there was a weird gap under my arms. The 38DD had the same tight band, good cup size, and no weird gap under my arms. I decided I was between band sizes, and since bands usually stretch out over time, I decided to stick with the 38DD. In short, go down one cup size.

38 DDD (G) The underwire digs in because the 4 clip band is very tight. The straps are thin, so I think they will dig in since we've got to carry "girls" around all day. There wasn't any side boob spillage. There is leftover space in the cleavage area, so no lift there. Really just an over the shoulder boulder and (for me) would not be comfortable to wear all day. I had to return it. I would order a size up for the band, and a size down for the cup. It's odd. On the plus side, the material is not too thick or thin, it had very thin padding in the cups, and it's silky soft.

This is the closest I’ve gotten to a perfect fit in a long time. The cup is perfect but the band stretches a bit too much for me. It seems like it should be a little less flexible and more sturdy. I have to start on the tightest hook to get a secure feeling on the band other wise it’s great!

Alright, I’m a errrrr well endowed lady and can struggle finding bras that not only fit, but are affordable. This is one of my favorite mix of those two, but I do remove the underwire. (If there’s a wire free version of this cut, I’m in!)It fits the way it should! (No, not how Victoria does it. That’s her secret, it doesn’t actually fit as intended) No gaps, no uni or quadri boob. No teeny tiny straps to do heavy lifting. Plenty of chest clips. And yes, it even minimizes that weird armpit roll you sometimes get in a bra.Into underwires? That’s cool too, boo. I find the larger size actually comes with a larger underwire, so that is a major plus! Not much worse than buying a bra as a larger chested woman, and the underwire included is the same size as B cup.Overall, still a go to for me, just requires 30 secs to snip and slide that underwire out.

I may try other bras, but I always go back to Playtex. Good bra for the well endowed. I do not wear underwire bras very often, but when I do need one, this is a good one to wear.

Yay! Gravity has not been my friend over the years, and this is the first bra that offers support AND lift. The straps are comfortable and do not dig in, and the fabric is smooth against the skin.

I do love this purchase. Thank you!

I previously had 2 of these that I bought in a store several years ago and they were my favorites. I ordered these because the others needed to retire. I’m not sure if they have changed things or what, but they they are not the same as I expected. They are pointier in places if you catch my drift… and definitely not as soft as the older versions.I am larger busted so the pointiness looks off…But they do the job so I’ll use them until I find a style I like better.

OMG, this is by far the most comfortable bra that I have ever bought, I always buy a 38dd but the 40dd was only £12 so I thought I would give it ago, especially after reading reviews saying the band was rather tight on some reviews, this bra is the comfiest that I have every worn, put it on as soon as it arrived wore it for 8 hours, I couldn't even tell there was an underwire, as for the band I could of got my usual band size, but this was perfect on the tightest eyelets, the cups are soft, and gave a nice shape, absolutely perfect for the price, honestly you really can't go wrong with this bra, now I need the other colours to go on offer because I want them in every colour, 10 out of 10, thank you 😊 x

Unfortunately this bra did not fit true to size. I usually wear a 38G and I could barely breath in this bra. Plus the center wires actually stuck out so far that when I hugged my husband I actually stabbed him. It's a Beautiful bra and is well made but, it didnt fit true to size for me

The bra is well made with nice materials. The size is right.I don't like the fit. The cups are very large,and the underwire is taller than other bras i have. It lifts well but doesn't separate giving a uniboob effect.

Great wonderful comfortable supportive bra, I love it. The only issue was the stitching had come undone where the two seams in the material meet at the shoulder strap, it was like this before I put it on... just wondering if the bras sold here are factory seconds or if someone else had go this one and sent it back... I washed it just in case... I'm keeping it as it took forever to get to me and I can easily stitch it up... my view is that I think the bra could be sold a little cheaper with the defect. Other than that this is honestly a fantastic fitting bra.How I got my correct size ... I checked my measurement's on Pennington's web site, according to their calculator I am a 40 DDD ... I tried on a Pennington's bra size 40 DDD and it was too tight, so when you go up a size which for me is 42... you go down a cup size which for me is DD, I took a chance and ordered the Playtex bra 42DD and it fits perfectly. I hope that helps.

Comfortable bra, offers ample support and gives a good silhouette
