Vanity Fair Women's Illumination Full Figure Zoned-in Support Bra, Lightly Lined Cups Up to DD

Beautiful bra. True to size and Holly Red color. Comfortable fabric and good support.

Properly measured and bought these for my in desperate need of new bras dear friend who is in her 70’s and hadn’t been wearing a correct size for YEARS! We tried a few styles, she is absolutely IN LOVE WITH THIS BRA! She cannot believe her bust looks like it did many decades ago. She has that right fit bra skip in her step :) She had at one point been obese, again is in her 70’s, so the ladies on their own aren’t where anyone wants them to be, if you know what I mean ;) She ended up in a 36D and couldn’t believe her bust was actually that size when all picked up and put where belongs. She’d been wearing stretched out years old B cup bras and sagging in them. She is petite and would have never thought she’d wear underwire at her age comfort/fit wise… but likes that on her frame under her arms, the underwire gathers her bust tissue perfectly and does not fit in. The straps are a wider satin like feel which she says is extremely comfortable to wear all day and do not dig in or weigh down. She loves the fabric and style of the bra also, it is a very pretty bra. With her looser breast tissue she does stay in the cups all day, doesn’t fall out anywhere with any tests of bending over or whatnot… She is in love with her new shape, feels like a sexy new woman, she looks AMAZING! She looks younger than her 70’s, but changing to a proper fitting and supporting bra to put the ladies back where they belong, she feels and looks like a brand new woman! She has had them for several months now and still talks nonstop about how amazing she feels in this bra, how good she looks when she sees her figure, how comfortable it is and how sexy she feels at 72 yo - she hasn’t felt this amazing in as long as she can remember!I wish I had a picture to show… will follow up if get one that shows how lovely her profile looks now!

Great fit! It feels good when I wear it. It doesn't pinch or ride up. Firmly holds my breast in place! Plus, the price is good too!

The silhouette was a little bit of a shock. The bra does well supporting and lifting and separating as expected, but the shape of the cups then has my girls kind of pointing in opposite directions and the cups have a bit of a conical shape instead of a full roundness. Not bad, just different than what I’m used to. The cups were true to size, the D fits me fine. I do see why many suggested going up a band size. The band has very little in the way of elastic give. The band is thick enough around the under arms that it’s comfortable and covers my little side/armpit flab.

Tips before my review: Padded bras are made for those who have pronounced headlights that need that padding. Lucky for you if you don't need it, however, that very small amount of padding in this bra does not add to your bust size, but does give the girls added support to keep them lifted and in place. Also useful as a winter bra when the weather is colder. But it is definitely not overly padded.Keep in mind some reviews are from others who are wearing the wrong bra size to begin with when stating that it is "too big" or "too small".I am a 38C, 5'4" tall, and weigh 142 lbs. I give this bra a 5 star not because it is perfect, but because of all the bras out there, it really is one of the best and nearly is perfect it so many ways.Overall, I barely feel this bra which makes it great, no tugs or readjustments to the straps or the back banding, stays in place without any uncomfortable feel.The underwire is flat against my body and not round where it could roll up or down or dig in, and is slightly padded so that I can barely feel it.The straps are wide and very soft and do not fall off my shoulder.The back is very smooth and there is nothing digging into my shoulder blades or back fat.The size is spot on with the banding length and the cup volume being exactly what a 38C should be.The full coverage is great because it also helps in keeping the girls securely in place.It does not have side bones but the underwire works perfectly well at keeping my wide breasts front and center, oddly other underwire bras I've had have not done so.The cup molding is not too stiff and has some give to it since the entire bra (cups and banding) stretches in all directions, yet still feels nice and snug.The bra moves with me and I don't have to make adjustments by pulling and tugging at it all day long.Not a problem for me, but might be for someone with a long back; the straps adjustment length doesn't appear to be as long as some women might need, but for me it is fine, I have mine at about an inch and a half of extra strap left since I have a short torso.

The Vanity Fair Women's Illumination Full Figure Zoned-in Support Bra offers decent support and comfort for everyday wear. The lightly lined cups provide some shaping, and it fits well up to a DD size. However, the fabric feels a bit stiff initially, and the band can be a little snug, especially after a few hours of wear. Overall, it's a solid choice for those looking for a supportive, everyday bra, but it might not be the most comfortable for extended wear. Still, a good option for the price.

I love this bra. The satin trim is beautiful and true to size. Well made

I have been wearing these bras for years and love them. They last a long time. The straps are nice and thick but not overly so. The straps are soft and very comfortable. The color choices have been great and will continue to buy these.
