but that is not to say I am the least bit disappointed with this model
Okay, girls, here's the bottom line.I'm a little saddened by any negative reviews I've read about this Bali style being a little uncomfortable or a little matronly. I have been buying this bra FOR YEARS.Why, you ask?Well, as a 36DDD my options are limited, but that is not to say I am the least bit disappointed with this model. If you have a set of full term twins under your top, then you understand that NO bra is super duper 100% comfortable, not when it has that big daily work load. Sure, this style might be confused with a police vest made of Kevlar due to its "seems to cover so much" design but again, if you are a big busted girl you will appreciate that we cannot be supported by doilies connected by elastic. "My cup runneth over" is a wonderful thing to claim when referring to your blessings but NOT when referring to your bra.In conclusion, if you are not in the big breasted club, maybe then pass this one by, but if you ARE in the club AND you need some safe, secure car seats for the twins, look no further. Try them out, and keep checking the prices on Amazon as they are great and will sometimes go EVEN LOWER on certain colors and sizes.P.S. Larger bras, especially those with a seam in the cup, sometimes have a tendency to have a serious "point factor," but this style does not, I repeat NOT give you funnel bosom. No pointiness. I promise.

Good minimizer but uncomfortable...
I bought this because it said it was a minimizer and it is, it made my G cup look like a B cup which I was very surprised by but it makes your breasts look like cones and it’s polyester and very uncomfortable depends what you’re looking for if you want to buy it

Nothing good about it - maybe I got one from a bad batch. See photo.
I don’t understand where more positive reviews came from. Maybe I received a dud. Fabric feels stiff and papery. Construction leaves gaps and creates horrible fit.

They really do fit me!
I say this fit as expected, because it really does fit me! I got the black and white bras, in 36G, and goodness they fit PERFECTLY. They're not too big, not too small, and the straps -- the straps don't fall down off my shoulders!These are honestly the first bras I have been able to find that fit me properly. I've even had "professional" fittings at 4 different stores that are supposed to be "experts" in this kind of stuff, and no one has been able to fit me with a bra that fits this nicely. I'm really, really impressed, especially because it's so hard to find my bra size.What I'm honestly the most impressed with, is that the straps don't fall off my shoulders. That's the biggest problem I've always had. The straps don't stay, and they fall down, so all day at work I'm readjusting. But not with these, they stayed up all day.There's one spot that they rub in, right at the edge of the straps meeting the cups (there's a little lacey type piece there, and that's why it rubs), but that's been easily solved by sewing some trim into that spot. No more rubbing!I'm really happy with this purchase, and I'll definitely be ordering some more.

This cannot be a Bali made bra
I’ve been purchasing Bali bras for years and this CANNOT be made by Bali. The material is a strange, very thin, inflexible material that makes a crinkling sound as it bends. If I could give this product less than one star, I would, as the quality of this bra is so poor that it doesn’t warrant anything more. The bra is extremely light with this odd synthetic material. When I took it out of the package, I thought it was a joke. The band is made of a cheap nylon like material, but it is not truly stretchy. Honestly, the biggest problem with this bra is that it is made out of a material that should not be used for any type of clothing, let alone a bra. The whole thing is just bizarre. It reminded me of a material that a rain jacket might be made of. I tried this bra on and within a couple of minutes it was so uncomfortable (synthetic fabric was stiff and not breathable) that I immediately had to take it off. I would not recommend this product.

Just okay
Okay, so if you are a bigger size you know the pain of finding a bra that fits that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. I love my E**** brand bras but, I can’t always drop $50 for a bra. So, cost wise this is great. But, as always, you get what you pay for. The sizing runs smaller than my higher end bras, not the end of world, but not great either. I am not tall by any means but the straps are so short that I have them out as far as I can push them and they are really snug, almost too tight. Then there is the underwire, it digs into my ribs and ribs against my inner arms, a constant reminder of the inferior bra. And well, I won’t give it “Madonna status”, but it is a little pointier than I like. The girls ride high though, I suppose that is a perk.. if you buy this measure yourself really carefully and when in doubt definitely go up a size or maybe 2.

My New Favorite Bra
The previous "really good" bra I was wearing went up in price by $30. Because I couldn't make myself swing that, I ended up wearing bras that offered no support but did the job good enough. As a result, my back always hurt if I stood for too long at work. Given that I work a job that requires me to stand, climb ladders, and bend all day, I needed a good bra. This bra by Bali has everything I would need for being an active person with 40DDD. It supports, fits great, and doesn't show through my shirt. When I first tried it on, there were noticeable lumps of fabric on the cups. I could see them through my shirt. Once I washed the bra, those lumps went away. For the price, you cannot beat this bra!

I have a terrible time finding a bra that is supportive
Being a larger chested woman, I have a terrible time finding a bra that is supportive. This bra does the job, and is comfortable. It is a minimizer, but I don't feel squished. Because it's a minimizer, it was recommended to me (by a store employee where I first tried it on) to order 1 size larger than my normal size. I did, and it fit perfectly. And, as an added bonus, these are cheaper online than they are in the store!

Best support ever!
Fantastic bra - reduces the bust as stated, very supportive. The only niggle I can say is there isn't much give it's very structured but if it keeps them supported it's a small price to pay. Best bra I've ever bought and fantastic value as well

Not great
Horrible quality I’m afraid. Felt uncomfortable as sharp seams and nasty fabric. Returned

I like the bra I normally take 38dd
I like the bra I normally take 38dd. But in this bra is a little too big in the cup I didn't return it as it took so long to arrive next time I would order a 38d

Great support
These bras have great support for the heavier bust and are comfortable due to the wider straps
