Hanes Women's Concealing Petals Wirefree Bra MHG510

Favorite & most comfortable for years. Now they have discontinued.

It is extremely comfortable.. At home and on casual outings I am am always braless, because for anything that involves an outfit I wear extremely uncomfortable high-maintenance bras (ie, bras designed for aesthetics, and that is the only function. They weigh a ton, are stiff as hell, you know the type of bras that take a couple minutes and muscles to "get into" and usually are garnished with decorations, very sexy, etc... Looks good with or without clothing, but they would hurt to actually sleep and wake up in). Sometimes i even take them off in the car before i can get home it is so reloeving. Obviously now u see why i prefer braless the rest of the time. But I recently decided that it probably wasn't good to be braless so much of the time, otherwise it may change things to not look so good braless anymore ;)So i looked online for something that was very light, very cheap to buy a couple dozen or so, and very easy to care for literally i planned to throw it in the machines with my cotton tees and towels, etc. I looked and researched ALOT.THIS BRA met my needs. And it arrived within 30 hours (next day with prime, which is almost good enough for logic and impatience with "shipping"...i wouldnt care or even remember something i bought a week ago, problems need immediate solutions arriving at the doorstep, and there are plenty of people to do it, we can pay to get food/flowers within an hour, documents can come within a few hours cross country flight, and we easily mail anything overnight to anywhere in the world within 18-24 hours, so why cant we get the major clothing and other retailers stuff to be here by end of the same day too?) i digress, but i am looking fwd to more retailers in the near future offering same day delivery.. .This bra is excellent. When i remember to pull one out (i can easily fit them all into a drawer just like socks and panties), I can sleep in it and wear it under anything no matter how tissue thin or drapey of loungewear it is. The bra is lightweight and doesnt bind my lungs at ALL (which all my "bras" do). It hasjust with enough support that I feel like I'm wearing a bra instead of feeling my breasts jostle against my chest skin. I dont need to hold them to run up the stairs and grab something quick. I dont need to pull my elbow on my purse strap to slide over my bust when i am out to pickup something at the market. And it is so soft, despite the synthetic material it hasnt caused me to itch, chafe, rub, or sweat. I can. Barely tell it is on, and it is easy to PUT on, too. I wanted to forget i am wearing an actual bra...PLUS it is sooo cheap! I am very surprised. Meets all my purposes. I will still have to see how well these things hold up after getting washed a few times but if they are really low maintenance and easy breezy as they appear then I might have to buy another couple dozen and have them everywhere.

Yikes! This thing is tiny! I brought a similar Hanes bra some time back in my usual size--34B. I like it so much, it's my go-to everyday hack, and it's starting to show it. So, I thought I'd buy a few more of the same kind in different colors.Alas, either Hanes has discontinued that style or I just can't find it. Isn't that typical? Just when you realize you really like something, they stop making it. I wound up buying this one because it looked like the closest match and I wanted to stick with Hanes. My faithfulness was not rewarded.The bra arrived promptly, and I tried it on right away. As soon as I did, I realized it was significantly smaller than my "old faithful" bra. On that one, I use the middle set of hooks; I could barely fasten the new one on the outermost hooks (largest girth), and it was uncomfortably tight. Looking down, I had to laugh--the cups were overflowing every which way!I spent a minute or so at the mirror admiring the unaccustomed cleavage. My husband thought it was a good look (lol!), but we were headed to a movie and I knew I'd tear the thing off midway through, so I had to swap back to the old one.Today, I applied logic to the situation. Maybe this bra is the right size and a) I've gained weight, and/or b) my old bra has simply stretched. The tape measure says otherwise. From one edge of the chest strap to the other, the new (supposedly 34") bra measures just 26" when relaxed. Stretching it as much as possible with my fingers, it *JUST* reaches 34", and that's from edge to edge. No wonder it feels so tight when fastened!I've always worn a B or C cup, even when I was over ten pounds heavier than I am now. Even if the girth on this bra were larger or my back were smaller, the cup would still be WAY too small. The B is *so* small, I don't think a C would fit comfortably either. To look at it from the other direction, my old bra may have stretched across the back, but the (B) cups couldn't have, and they fit fine. Conclusion: The new bra is simply not the stated size, either in girth or cup capacity.If the bras ran consistently small, I'd be tempted to size up; I estimate I'd need a 38C or 38D to make it work. I certainly wouldn't mind going up a cup size or two, even it's it's just the number on the tag! Unfortunately, while some people are reporting, like me, that this bra runs small, others say it's true to size. That means it's a die roll whether or not you get the size you expect. Quality control matters. Meh. Even though it's a cheap bra, I don't have money to throw away. Sorry, Hanes. It's not me, it's you.Bottom line: I wouldn't recommend this bra to anyone but, if you're determined, buy at a store so you can try it on first--unless you're not afraid of throwing money away.

I have an older version of this bra and the company clearly changed things. Im normally a 38C and I could barely get new bra around me. I remeasured myself and Im still a 38C plus other company bras I ordered the same time fit. so I ordered a 40C. Its still very tight. and I understand its suppose to be little tight but it felt the same as the 38C. the straps have no give but also seem extremely short. I let it out all the way and it was still uncomfortable and pulling the back of the bra up. normally I have the opposite problem where I have to tighten the straps up. not with this bra. I really wanted to like this bra. but I guess they don't make things like they use to. I would recommend sizing up in band for sure If your still going to try it. I feel like this was made for more of a person wearing a smaller cup size.

My wife likes this bra, fits a little on the small side but she is happy with it. The downside is that the price tag on the bra said $12.99, but we paid $19.50 for each one!!! Not really happy about that…

When this bra first arrived, I thought it looked large... But that is only because I am not young and slender like the model in the photo! I ordered a 40 C and it fits perfectly. It's a very simple white bra with no lines or seams (great for under T shirts) I also have that horrible side fat that must be controlled and this bra does it well! I will wear throughout the summer and on.... I highly recommend. It is the best bra I have ever found that holds in that wobbly side fat. Tuck it in and it's gone leaving you looking great! It's also good for any size woman from the model to my full 40 C.

Fits as expected. Nice to have a bra with good support and no underwire.

The materialIs more of a shiny 80s poly rather than a soft synthetic. The straps buckle are hard to move in place and the straps are a bit wide to my liking. The sides strech but not nearly as much as anticipated and the whole feel is a bit cheap. For 20$ I’ll keep & wear as an activity bra.
