I have purchased this style of Bali bra in the past and found it really comfortable. When it was time to buy new bras, I didn't hesitate to look them up and purchase more. My luck was not so good this time. I purchased several of this style in various colors. Each of the new bras have short underwires in the right cup. This leaves the seam on the edge of the cup floppy and it is uncomfortable and irritating. This black bra came with the material in the area of the snaps coming apart. When I went to put the bra on today the end of one of the underwires was sticking out through the fabric. This isn't my first time with underwire and I have never had this much trouble before. I do wash my bras in the washer, but I hang them to dry.
