I give it no stars.

I wish I had read these reviews before purchasing. I would have to agree with the small band size wearers. I am a 36DDD, and this bra was just an awkward fit. Being that it is SO hard to find a bra in my size I could have lived with just that. But to make an uncomfortable situation worse the straps and band are made of something akin to organza, which may be 'pretty' but on your skin it's just like a fine grit sandpaper. Also, along the bottom of the band (in the organza from hell we shall call it,) there is sewn a very taut, small, round elastic. I am assuming the purpose of this is to keep the organza from hell band from slipping, as organza is wont to do. What it feels like is tiny spikes adhering the sandpaper to you. To top it all off the stitching on the clasps, at least on mine, was clipped at the bottom corners on the skin side. The thread is similar to that in a cheap comforter, nylon like, and it actually did leave two sores on my back. And I only wore The Beast for 6 hours.

Yes, I'm pretty sure this bra is the anti-Christ.

So if someone is holding you under duress, or you are a lemming (in which case you don't need a bra and they don't really jump off cliffs, you know, check snopes), go a band size up. I still think it will torment you, but if you're into that then I'm sure you'll be okay with this evil bra.

ATTN BRA MANUFACTURERS: We buxom lassies would like a fair bit more consideration in your game. Especially those of us who wear the small band sizes. We are more in number than you think, maybe you should do some polls. Yes, I heavily suggest you do some polls. Not only on size, but on comfort and fit as well. When you get size, fit, and comfort down we would like some variety. I refuse to believe that one cannot make a pretty bra in my size. With some nice color selection. And we'd like as fair a price as you give everyone else.

Do some polls.

Completely Frustrated with the Bra Industry,
Jeannie 'I hate this bra' Holcomb

This is a very nice, modest bra. It is a more tailored style, but still pretty. It has a lining that provides shaping and is smooth enough to disappear under clothes. Best of all, these "shaping petals" fused inside the cups really do almost completely eliminate any display of being "chilly" and help avoid the embarassment that causes. A first of its kind! I found it fit me true-to-size, also. I ordered one to try it out, and will definitely purchase more. I do wish they had a few more color choices, but the neutrals are good.

like janet d. says, all small band wearers take caution. i bought a 32dd, and the cup is very poorly shaped. it feels as though they took a large bra and simply shortened the band-- the cup is much too wide and flat. the underwire extends beyond the edge of my breast, there's gaping under the arms, bulging at the front, flattening of breasts, and the concealer petals don't sit in the right place for me. this might just be a symptom of small band sizes, but all buyers should know that the width/depth of the cups are not adjusted based on the band size. the diameter of this cup was 6" as opposed to the 5" in my other 32dd bras.

THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST BRA I HAVE EVER TRIED ON..

IF YOU ARE "D" OR "DD", EVEN WITH A SMALL BAND, DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

NO SIDE SUPPORT, SO SUPPORT AT AT ALL

WHAT WAS BALI THINKING WHEN THEY DESIGNED THIS BRA.

I have been looking everywhere to gather a palette of colors of this bra. The colors are beautiful. The bra supports me beautifully, and with the hidden concealer, I never have to worry about revealing something I don't want to! Love them!

This is the first comfortable underwire bra I've ever worn. I have been wearing this model for several years and this purchase is my sixth. The band stays in place and doesn't bind. And I wouldn't be without the concealers. These bras stand up well in the wash. I'm still wearing the first one I bought and you can't say that about many bras. Love them!

First: This is not a thin bra .. this is a foam lined bra .. yea if you can wear a regular foam bra and worry about your nipples then you might look at this bra. It is the same foam used in all of their foam bras with a added (cardboard feeling) nipple concealer petals which for some reason are somewhat to the inside and higher than the natural curve of the foam cup. They also show up as a wrinkle in the bra cup so they are easy to find. Don't recommend under knits .. had someone ask about the "odd scalloped wrinkle", thought I had left a tag hanging.

Second: It fits like a minimizer, flattened round curve, but if you align your nipple with the concealer petals you will get some cleavage (as I mentioned above it is about an inch off center of the cup and toward the center of bra) just not comfortable cleavage, sort of falling out of bra cleavage.

Also agree with the organza and thin elastic comment .. love the sides on passion for comfort .. these are nowhere near as comfortable. If you are planning on being active, plan on sandpapered patches of skin.

I had bought this bra hoping not to have a padded foam bra .. I have two Bali Passion for Comfort bras for all the padding a DD needs. When they came in I had just retired two other bras and was needing one desperately so I didn't send them back. Very sorry I didn't.

such a great idea but doesn't work for larger sizes.
the fit is odd and uncomfortable. the petals are not in the right place for me and the straps and band are itchy. i bought two but dread wearing them.

I wear a 40D and this bra fits me like a glove, comfortable too. I told several friends about this bra and they love them too. We all talk about how we can wear things that we couldn't before. The sand color under a white top is virtually invisible. I bought 1 in each color and 2 in the sand color. As long as they make them, I'll be wearing them. They definitely work awesome for my friends and myself!!

When I originally bought this bra I was thrilled that I had found a full-coverage 32DD, but I was not prepared for the cups to cover all the way up to my collar bones. The fit is all around awful and I agree with one of the other posters- the cup is too wide and flat and the band is all screwy. It might work if you are a smaller cup and/or larger band, but if you are like the other posters and myself, run away!
