GlamoriseWomen's Wonderwire Front-closure Bra Underwire #1245

Perfect fit right out of the package!
I've never bought a Glamorize bra before, but I decided to try the brand since my usual brand doesn't seem to be able to fit me 50 pounds lighter than I used to be. I measured correctly, and their fit and sizing were way off. So I thought I'd try Glamorize. I wasn't sure what to expect - but I opened the package, tore ooopen the plastic bag, and looked at the bra. Great color (cafe) and and enough lace to be pretty but not so much that it's scratchy. So, leaving the straps however they were fixed, I slung the bra over my shoulders and fastened the clasp. I had to get my reading glasses for the clasp - too close-up to see properly! Is a bra supposed to make me happy? because when I stood up straight and looked in the mirror, I was happy. This bra fit right absolutely everywhere. The back stretch was comfortable and perfect size, the straps were extremely comfortable (I've worn it for 10 hours so far, and can barely feel that it's ON). The cups fit as though they were custom-made. Changing brands and sizes - what were the odds of getting that right the first time? I'm very happy - I didn't rate sheerness because it isn't sheer, and wasn't SUPPOSED to be sheer. So is that 5 stars? Zero stars? Ambiguous category.Anyway - if you are considering trying this bra, I'd encourage you to give it a whirl. I'm very pleased with it. (and I'm an old crabby lady!)

MOST COMFORT and BEST FIT
I followed Glamorise's fitting instructions, bought one of these and tried it, so I'm ditching my old bras and buying the other colors. This bra feels like I have nothing on but a hug. No digging wires or straps, no rolling sides, no back bulges, no feeling like I need to pull something into place. The key is getting the right fit. Don't guess at it because I have found that bras are sized differently across makers. The front clasp seems to hold very well, closing firmly with a click, and has not come undone unexpectedly. I don't have to yank the clasp around to my back, plus it's sexy. The flared padded shoulder straps stay up, don't dig in. (My previous shoulder pain has vanished!) The pretty lace at the top of the cups has a little give but remains in place, I think due in part to a clear thin strip of some kind of gripper. I don't anticipate spillage because every part of this bra stays where I put it and doesn't shift around. The quality is superb, and the colors are pretty and fun. IMPORTANT TIPS I learned from shopping at a well-known local bra boutique: 1) Use Glamorise's sizing chart. 2) Open back straps all the way. Try that, so you'll have room to tighten later, as wear may stretch them over time. 3) As you are putting it on, lean slightly forward from the waist to help settle into the cups. A good fit will rest on your rib cage under your breasts. This also goes all the way up into my armpit area. 4) Don't wear the same bra two days in a row, so the elastic fabric has a chance to recover. 5) Hand wash the bras every five wearings with a dedicated lingerie detergent and hang to dry. If you sweat in it between washes, just rise it and hang to dry. As a woman of a certain age with large, deflated breasts I have found this bra to be the best fit and the most comfortable to put on and wear. (I'm no longer planning my day around when I'll take off my bra!) I RECOMMEND THIS FOR EVERY FULL-FIGURED WOMAN LOOKING FOR COMFORT.

Perfect Everyday bra
I’d give it 4.6 stars (cause nothing is perfect)….just bought my 3rd of these (38G) and they are true to size and perfect for every day wear. I like the thicker shoulder straps and the way the bra keeps my breasts fully supported and separate. I wore my last one 4-5 days a week and to bed all the time and it lasted 2 years before the underwire started poking through, which I consider good, considering the burden. I could technically just give it a few stitches and be good as new, but I’m just being lazy and buying a new one. This is my every day wear bra, perfect for work, keeps the girls snug, supported and covered and is easy to put on/take off.

Read This Review to the End-It Evolves
This is such a great bra, well-made and comfortable. I’m so sorry I had to return it. I’m fighting my way back from some serious medical problems, and there is no way for me to be independent if I can’t dress myself; that means I need a front-closing bra. This clasp is literally impossible to open or close while wearing the bra. The two pieces need to be at right angles to each other in order to slide in and out. I practiced for half an hour, but couldn’t manage it without help, which defeats the whole purpose. So, unless you have a personal dresser, like Queen Elizabeth, or an engineering degree, don’t buy this bra. :-(Update: I tried again, 3 sizes larger than I’ve ever worn before. Now there’s enough space that I can stick both my hands in there and make that 90-degree angle. It’s too big for me, but it’s also wonderfully comfortable. It won’t give me the most flattering bustline, but it will give me my independence back, and that’s more important. I’m ordering another one, and adding some stars to my review. :-)Updated update: I’ve finally figured out how to hook this bra easily. You just slip into it, hook it easily while it’s high on your chest, THEN lift the girls in. I’ve been wearing these bras for months now, and my shoulder pain is totally gone. The trick is to buy the bra a size larger in the band than you normally wear, because the band is not adjustable; but the cups run true to size. I’m changing my review again, this time to 5 stars. These are the absolute best bras ever!Second Updated Update: it’s six months later, and I still have zero shoulder pain and full range of motion. My rheumatologist is recommending these to his female patients. I have them in three colors now. Best purchase ever! One less thing to worry about! 😊 👩🦼

Love these bras
Seriously these might become the only bras I buy from now on. They fit perfectly, they are super comfortable and super supportive. They maintain lift and separation so I don't have to keep adjusting my boobs throughout the day. It is a bit to early for me to speak to durability which will be an important factor given the price but so far I have never been happier with a bra than I am now.

Soo cute
Exactly what I was looking for. Opens at front. Feels like lots of support. Fits well. Very happy. Would buy again and probably will. Lace is pretty too and straps feel very good.

Ajusta muy bien!
El brasier ajusta muy bien, no trae copa dura, es suave, solo tela, aún así, ajusta muy bien; si tiene varilla. A mi me quedo un poco pequeño, si lo volvería a comprar en la talla adecuada.
