this is really comfortable. I'm 40DD and I got the 3x and it fits really well. I just hope it doesn't stretch out with wear. If it does, I'll update this here. I find that the padding in them is the proper size for the bra as well, but awkward to adjust on the breast (which corners go where in the bra?). I tried it without the pads and they don't offer a whole lot of support without them. I think this bra would be significantly improved if they just attached the padding in the bra.

update: I have been wearing these to work and around the house. I prefer them without the padding. They give your boobs a nice, natural, but perky shape. I don't even notice that I'm wearing a bra when I wear these. Occasionally a strap will fall down, but not nearly as much as a more traditional bra. Before wearing, I was wondering if I should have got a racerback version, because straps always fall down on me but it's so rare with these bras that I'm not concerned about it at all.

These are my favorite bra for when I want to feel like I'm not wearing a bra. I wouldn't wear these to be sexy, but to be honest, they're not particularly ugly either. Just really neutral and plain. Comfortable as heck.

Edit: this does stretch out with wear. I'd order a size down.
