I show horses, and this bra controls the "bounce and jiggle" better than any other I've tried.

I have been buying this bra through Barenecessities DOT com for quite some time and now will buy via Amazon DOT com, and it's a very high quality bra. It's quite expensive in the stores and even online (prices vary), but it's typically a well made garment. I've only had to return one once in probably 15 years of wearing buying this bra. I recommend hand washing only. Once you start washing it in the machine, it loses its spring in my opinion. (No dryer either). The shoulders are quite comfortable, and the fasteners have never broken. The underwire can be a little uncomfortable, but I think that is the nature of this type of bra. The wires just aren't comfy if you have big b**bs. Most of the time I don't notice them. But overall the bra really gives you a lot of support and does minimize, and not in a "pointy" way. I prefer the black color best, as the white dulls quickly and the "pink" or "rose" color is not that pretty.

It shows through all my clothes!:(

I've tried dozens of minimizer bras over the years and I would rank Bali's Satin Tracings among the top for comfort, fit, support, and minimizing ability. I love the padded straps that stay in place all day.

The reason I can only give 3 stars for such a great bra is that is shows through everything! The hideous seams that run diagonally across the cup show through all my clothes - even my thickest sweater! I'm disappointed that I can only wear my most supportive bra around the house so nobody will see it...

Excellent fit for us overly endowed folks. Wanted another one so just went on line to Bali and they sent me to Biels in Florida. On time delivery and product was as asked for.

this product is a good value for the price, price is one-half what department store charges.
highly recommended

Being rather large busted but not so large around... I have a very hard time finding bras. This one fits perfect and feels right. It's not your fancy bra, just a well built bra for support and comfort. Works as described.

This is a comfortable bra, but the wires were sticking up from between the cups. If they could make this without wires and still the have the support I would have kept it.

This bra is one of the best bras I've ever worn, and THE best minimizer. It's sufficiently cute, it holds its shape, it provides ample coverage, and while the underwires can be a bit more uncomfortable than some other models, they're tolerable.

And the price...you can get them on sale as low as $18. (I found one on clearance for $12, but that was just dumb luck.)

Of course, you could go to a certain big department store and spend $50 and upwards for bras, especially if you are voluptuous, but when this bra exists, why the heck would you want to?

pros
very comfortable straps
great support

cons
instead of laying flat to my skin the wires stick out between the boobs giving this weird bump on any shirt that i wear.

can only wear around the house because of how it deforms my clothes

update: some people recommended that i bend the wires inward so i wouldnt have these two wires pointing out between my boobs. so i put it on again this morning and did just that...duh...why didnt i think of that.

the wires arent lying flat and if i bend the wire too much then they just bubble out further down but i was able to make it good enough that i dont look deformed. im very happy for the advice and now i can wear this to work and feel supported all day. for that im giving it another star. im waiting to see how it hold up in the wash...

thanks for the advice....

I like this bra so much I have ordered 2 more in a smaller size because I am on a diet......... I love how much better I look in this bra compared to a regular "18 hour" bra. The bra is great except the underwire can be a bit uncomfortable. To remedy this I take a thick soft cloth and put it under the center lower part of the bra. It works great for me....
