Review on Comfortable Plus Size Racerback Bra With Front Closure - DELIMIRA'S Seamless Underwire Design For Women by Yvonne Mok

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sizing off: my feedback

I purchased this Delmira front-close bra in a size 36F. I lined up this Delmira bra with another Delmira bra in a 34G, and a Le Mystère 34H. As you can see in my photos, this Delmira front-close 36 band is about 1.5 inches smaller than the Delmira 34G, and about 2.5 inches smaller than the Le Mystère 34H.I ordered this bra in a 36 band because after purchasing my 34G, I learned that Delmira runs a bit tight, and I wanted the bra to be comfortable. Unfortunately, it cuts in to my body beneath my breasts. The cups work, but they are actually a bit large. The band is ridiculously tight. Which makes sense, considering that it is smaller than all of my other bras! I really wanted to like this bra. The style is flattering, but the fit is completely wrong.As a woman with large breasts, I have become adept at purchasing bras. Despite my experience, I don't think there would have been any way for me to predict how skewed the sizing would be on this bra. I probably should have ordered a 38E, or even a 40D. All my other bras that are 34H/34G/36F, (and fit properly) so I never would have thought to size up so much in the band.

Pros
  • Soft and smooth fabric feels great against the skin
Cons
  • May not be as comfortable as advertised
