BaliWomen's Underwire, One Smooth U Ultra Light T-Shirt, Convertible Bra

Okay, so I have a LOT to say about this bra. I'm sure you're reading the 1 and 2 star reviews and wondering whether you should take a chance. YES, by all means, do! I am going to do my best to address the issues raised in the low ratings. But first, please know that I have been wearing the bra for two days now (all day) and can tell you without reservation that it is one of the most - if not THE most - comfortable and attractive bras I've ever owned. I am rather chesty (a 38D) and usually have to try many bras on before I find an acceptable one, and then I buy like 3 or 4 at a time. I've worn Bali (though, not a ton of styles), Warner, Soma and others that perhaps I've long forgotten. TAKE A LOOK AT MY PHOTOS and keep in mind that I am approaching my 64th birthday. So, needless to say, the girls are not naturally perky at this stage in my life. LOL. I included one clothed so that you can see how it looks underneath a summer top.So, as to the issue of fit: It fits VERY true to size. The cup size fits exactly like a D-cup should fit - no gaps, full coverage, no side spillage out of the cups.Underwire: Truly, I have no idea what the complaints are all about. There is more than adequate fabric covering the underwire, and it is very comfortable too. If people are experiencing bruising (really???) or marks, perhaps they have it on hooks that are tighter than required, or maybe they need to go up to the next numeric size (e.g., 36 to 38). As I said, I've been wearing this bra all day long for two days, and it doesn't even feel like I have it on - it's THAT comfortable.Straps: They adjust well and give a good range for just about any body. I found that the girls are not sagging and are well supported. Sure, it would be easier to have them adjust in the front instead of the back, but once you make your adjustment, it's not like you have to do it every day (unless you're switching back and forth between racer-back and standard). BTW, I am wearing it as a racer back today, and it's fabulous!Padding: Unless you have literal bullets for nipples, there is no way they're gonna poke through the padding. The cups are not overly padded, which is really nice IMO, because too many bras have quite heavy padding, which is hot and uncomfortable and makes your chest look fake.Embellishment: The mesh portion on the upper cups is really attractive and lies perfectly. I haven't found issues with gapping, unevenness or seams showing through the clothing. I suppose if you wore a really tight top that is maybe silk or satin, you might see something. But for everyday use, the seam is it is not an issue.Bottom line: I am ordering two more bras today in different colors. If there is any deviation from this review regarding quality, etc., I will update this review.HOPE THIS HELPS!UPDATE (11/14/24):Still 5 STARS! I've been losing weight (down about 35 lbs. since June), so I've ordered several more of these bras in 36DD & 34DD along the weight-loss journey. They remain my "go-to" bra. Even after repeated wearing and washing, they are super durable and have retained their shape and fit. I'm about to go to a 34D and will definitely be ordering again - will use the larger ones for working out at the gym ;-).

This is a great bra. I generally buy bras with a little padding to keep things smooth but I thot I would try this one. I’m glad that I did. It’s smooth and well constructed. It has a 3 hook back, which not only gives a better fit but stays put better. Even without padding nothing shows thru, not even on cold days. It’s very smooth under tees and feels light and flexible. The underwire gives it great structure and good support. The fit is perfect. Overall this bra is a win and very well worth the money. I will definitely buy it again.

So I have been using sports bras for years now because they were most comfortable with having 3 pregnancies then having fluctuating weight after my final pregnancy. I wasn’t even sure what size I would wear so I googled how to tell your bra size then measured myself. According to the measurements I needed a 38D. So I searched and read reviews on hundreds of bras until I finally settled on this one. I ordered a 38D and the fit was PERFECT. It came and I washed and wore it promptly. It’s full coverage, no spillage and no weird side flab. I feel so secure while wearing it. The fabric is so soft and silky. Held and lifted in the right places just fine. My only complaint was the under wire. It was a bit uncomfortable and kinda, squeaky? That’s what influenced my 4 star rating. This might just be a personal preference but it was extremely uncomfortable. After removing the wire 10/10. If you’re debating buying this bra, DO IT. I have no regrets and will be back to buy a white one! Maybe even check out more of the styles this brand has :)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've tried a TON of different bras since the amazing ones Jockey used to make were discontinued (still very bitter about that, Jockey!). I bought from various stores and companies, including Third Love and Victoria's Secret, as well as many others and they all were awful. They either moved up too much causing boobage to spill out underneath or had to adjust the straps all day. But this bra is amazing. It is so comfortable and you never have to adjust anything. It fits and holds everything nicely,and provides good shape to the girls.There is an underwire but it has never pushed through or bent and it isn't even noticeable at all. No digging into the skin. I bought several for myself and for my daughter. My daughter also thinks they are very comfortable--and she hates all bras and is a D cup.BALI, please do not stop making this bra and please do not make changes to it! I also like that he doesn't have bows. I despise women's garments that have bows. It isn't 1915. It has a tiny little jewel thing, which is not necessary but is not in the way at all and could be cut off easily if desired. I don't even notice it. The final thing that is great about this bra is the PRICE! My god, I have spent a lifetime of spending $60+ on a single bra, but the price for this bra means I can easily buy a bunch of them---in case they stop making it. Thank you BALI SO MUCH for making such a comfortable, affordable bra!

I have spent the last few months looking for a bra that feels good and I have finally found it. So far I have purchased 3 of these. I am 5’7” 140 pounds and the first one I bought was a 34D but I returned it and exchanged it for a 36D and it is a fit perfect. The return/exchange was seamless and no difficulties.I usually do not light under wire, but the underwire is actually pretty soft. The fabric is smooth, and the hold and lift is great! Very flattering and I sit perfectly inside the cups. I crisscross the straps and have no issues with any kind of slipping off of my shoulders. The strap in the back is thick so I don’t have any back bulge.I highly recommend this bra
