I had this bra for quite a while before I finally wore it to a wedding and it drove me crazy the entire evening. The material along the top and bottom edges is some sort of rubber or latex and felt as if it was sticking to me and pulling on my skin for several hours. It was extremely uncomfortable and when I took it off at home later, I discovered that I had a line of raw, red skin where the latex was, which became little blisters and then scabbed over. If it was closer to the purchase date, I would definitely return the item.
