Bali Womens Passion for Comfort Minimizer Bra, Full-Coverage Underwire Bra, Seamless Cups

I have tried countless bras looking for a good fit, support (I'm a 36D), and comfort without much luck; I refuse to pay $60 or more for some of these highly touted "best bra ever" things on the internet. Wireless does not work for me. So I got one of these Bali Passion for Comfort jobbies about 2 months ago. It had everything I was looking for and would have given it 4 out of 5 stars save for the fact that it did gap just slightly near the underarms, but I was otherwise very pleased so I bought 2 more this time in different colors as nothing else was as supportive and comfortable. Well I was pleasantly surprised this time in that there is absolutely no gap whatsoever in either of these two; hence, the 5 star rating. I think maybe the first one was a fluke, perhaps a slight mistake by whoever stitched it. I would say that for the overall quality and reasonable price, it's definitely worth giving Bali a try.

This fits great, and I am happy with the fit and comfort.

I bought this on sale for $19.99, though it apparently retails for $48. I bring this up because the price does influence my review somewhat, as I would be much much more critical about the "Cons" if I paid full price.Pros:-It does actually minimize, hooray!-Comfortable and cute. Some say it looks like a grandma bra but I don't see it...-Straps don't fall down, bra does not ride up-Does not bunch up and emphasize back fat or side lumps-Fits true to size-They make smaller sizes. Many minimizer bra brands only make 36D and up. I got 34C, which isn't very large but it isn't small either, and I have my reasons for wanting to minimize my bustCons:-There's only 1, but a very important one: You can still see my nipples through the bra and thus through some of my shirts. I totally get why they don't want to add padding, which might negate some of the minimizing aspect, but it's I can't wear a bra if it shows my nipples. Any shirt where this isn't a problem is usually loose enough where there's no point/need to wear a minimizing bra.

Bali is a great brand, with good prices and good quality. The design of this bra is perfect for a big busted woman like me. It gives support but it is lighweighted, does not mark your underarms and gives good coverage. The straps have a good lenght and are strong. The fabric tends to scrath with your nails or certain surfaces. I recommend washing them by hand.

The media could not be loaded. Came back to update.....I ordered a 40DD and got a 33-inch on the bra. Why are companies so unfair to their customers? Why would you take a 33-inch bra and stamp 40DD on it 🤔. If Bali or whichever fake company making these bras really needs a rain check on measurements and fairness. The strange thing is that the bra does fit snugly.Apart from this, it is a very good quality bra. I will try the 40ddd for a little more coverage....(just for me)The straps are short, and sturdy and the bra does have stretch to it for anyone wondering. The cup area is not padded which is great for me but it's double layered. The under wire does not poke out or tugg at you skin and fit comfortably under the bust area.

This is the strangest bra I’ve ever tried on.My band size (under breasts and around the ribs) measures 36 exactly, and my bust measurement is a precise 44. I am a solid 36H, but depending on cup style and the material used, I do occasionally wear the sister size of 38F.I tried this out due to the good reviews, and the low cost. My typical size is 36F, but I am currently pregnant and sprang up to 36H overnight. Yikes. My favorite bras are made by Elomi (UK sizes, so go to a site with sizing assistance to find your size for this brand), and I generally stalk that brand online on different sites for sales so that I can purchase them between $35-50. I also like Le Mystere and Freya, and when it comes to bras I expect a good three years of service or it ain’t getting five stars.However, I’m pregnant, and in six months my milk will come in and I’ll need a different size. So heyyyyy, bring on the twenty dollar bras!I wanted this one to work. It’s sleek and smooth and would work under thin jersey shirts, and the band fits correctly- no riding up the back. The material is comfortable as are the straps. Unfortunately, it does some strange thangs to my breasts that make it a no go.The gore tacks, and the fabric on the bottom of the cups fits correctly, but there is a center strip of at least four inches where my breasts are smashed flat like a pancake in the center of my chest. I tried to get a pic of this flattened zone, but the bra is black so it’s a bit difficult to see. Because the bra squishes my breasts flat only in the center it simultaneously forces them out to the sides, so basically my boobs are trying to flee to the corners of the globe- one to the east and one to the west. There is also extra fabric bunched up at the top of the bra. Overall, it is the most comical effect I’ve experienced with a bra in my thirty six years on this Earth. It made me laugh, and I even put a shirt on to giggle at the craziness of having flattened breasts that point due east and west.My breasts are very large, but are definitely shallow, and also slightly wider set than average. On the plus side, the shallowness makes them look surprisingly perky because in spite of the pendulous size my nipples are still up turned. But sometimes certain bras just can’t work even if they are in the correct size.If you know you have shallow breasts like mine, this bra may not work for you. But the thing is, it’s a twenty dollar bra that you can return for free. It clearly works for a lot of women! It is worth giving a try. It’s tricky finding a bra that works even if you have your size spot on, because we are all different shapes and cups shapes vary A LOT!The bras I found in the twenty dollar range that DO work for me (I have reviewed them individually as well)are: Vanity Fair Women’s Beauty Back Full Figure Underwire Bra, Lilyette by Bali Women’s Beautiful Support Lace Minimizer (if you truly want a Minimizer this was the best one in my opinion), and Lilyette by Bali Women’s Enchantment 3-section Unlined Minimizer Underwire Bra (doesn’t actually minimize at all).I tried several Delimira bras, but those are a disaster on me as well. Hope this helps!

Super comfortable and True minimizer
