I received my Bali bra today. After reading a review stating the bra band is very short I ordered a 36 instead of my normal 34. Though the bra itself was very comfortable, the band was not! Even at a full size larger it was still too tight on the last hooks! Ill have to reorder to a 38 just to have some comfort in the band area. I measured the bra with my current 34 bra band (not a Bali) and it is still longer than Balis 36! Ive never worn a 36 or 38 in any bra so this seems a bit not the norm in sizing.
