Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Like most/many women who buy minimizers I have a larger chest. I wear a size 42 G bra. I've tried a few $20-$30 highly rated minimizers, over the past two decades, but have never been personally '5 star' satisfied. So, I did a little 'google' research and decided to try a Wacoal bra. I ordered both this bra and the $50/prime Wacoal NON-plus size minimizer. Both were a size 42 G. To further put it in perspective- I wear a size 16-18 shirt/top. I tried on both- one right after the other. I found this plus size version to fit much better and the cut more comfortable. I work 12hr days & this bra was PHENOMENAL all 12 hrs. When I took my shirt off, after getting home, my boobs were in the same EXACT place I had finagled them into 12hrs earlier. No pooching or scootching whatsoever! I guess my left boob is slightly larger (as it's not readily obvious) because in my other (Bali) minimizers it would somehow find a way to 'top surface' and cause the dreaded- boob within a boob pooch. As attractive as this might be in a push-up bra I did not expect or want it in a minimizer. Especially so, considering it was only ever a one-sided event! Even after 12hrs of work- much to my delight- 'Lefty Lu' was still in her assigned place with this bra. I'm a believer. A new found Wacoal girl! A few other tidbits as to how I plan on forever keeping 'Lefty Lu' in her place. Since, to date, I don't have a money tree in my backyard I plan to only ever hand wash this bra with a salad shooter as my secret cleaning weapon :). I read all about the how to's. NEVER wring out...lightly pat dry between towels and lay flat on a sweater rack to allow complete dry. Seriously, though- it's worth the money to keep such a good fit and feel in the best shape possible. FYI: I read about a salad shooter as being one of the best ways to thoroughly and gently clean a bra. It's better than hand washing alone and just as gentle. Good Luck Friends!
