I purchased this bra during a few months in which I was temporarily off of birth control, due to needing to renew but waiting for the insurance from the new job to kick in. I was experiencing extreme breast tenderness during ovulation and menstruation to the point that I would go to the bathroom at work and cut the wires out of my nice, expensive bras. I decided to purchase a wireless bra for those days so that I could experience some semblance of comfort.

When the bra arrived, I tried it on, and it fit. It supported fairly well. I love that the straps lock into place and don't slide longer as it's worn. However, it bears a terrible resemblance to the bullet bras of my grandma's era, which is not a look that I prefer. I also have terrible problems with wireless bras not giving me enough separation, causing my breasts to touch, sweat, and chafe, regardless of weather/climate control conditions, however most of this can be solved by applying deodorant or baby powder. The strap padding is more annoying than effective, as it slides around and constantly needs adjustment. If there were a way to hook or fasten it into place, that would be ideal.

I do like that there are four columns of hooks, as the standard three tend to stretch out far to quickly for my taste, leading to me taking in the sides or back of my bras - I prefer the bands tight, for if I don't have ample support, my back lets me know in very unpleasant terms. This bra, however, does not feel like it will be stretching out at any point in the near future, as the fabric has very little elastic.

This has been designated to be an at-home-only bra due to the shape, and I doubt I'll ever wear it in public. I'm to the point of not caring about seams or trim showing through my top, provided the bra does its job of making my boobs round, lifted, and front and center, however, this fails on all but lifted. It's perfect if I'm sick, cleaning, or lounging, or if I'll be going somewhere that evening in constrictive undergarments but prefer to be comfortable until it's necessary to change.

If the shaper were better, I may consider purchasing this bra again, however, as it is, I will not be purchasing another one, as I have found an alternate comfy bra that doesn't mis-shape me terribly. Being that I'm now on Implanon, I don't have to worry about ovulation OR periods, however, it's nice to take a break from wires and side boning on occasion.
