MaidenformWomen's Plunge

Great support! I didn't realise it was a minimiser bra, and I didn't want that, but it really holds my 36D cup when running, so I'll just use it as a sports bra.

I've been searching for a supportive, yet minimizing, bra for over a year (ever since my favorite Maidenform bra was discontinued). I am a 36 C/D. I am post menapausal. I do NOT want padding! My goodness, I don't need padding! but I also don't want a bra that's so sheer that nipples show thru!!! I've tried probably 10 different bras in the last year and every "minimizer" bra is padded, thus adding one more cup size- I don't want this. This Lillyette Bra arrived today, I put it on...and i"m in heaven! super supportive, comfortable, fit is perfect...and (drum roll), the cups are nicely lined BUT NOT PADDED! i AM THRILLED AND WILL ORDER ANOTHER ASAP!!! highly recommend!!!! Fabric and design are beautiful too!

This bra is not a true Lilyette bra. I have a real Lilyette bra in the same style and size that I purchased years ago, which is a fantastic bra and I wore it so much I needed a new one. Wanted to save $ so decided to purchase this one off Amazon and you can see the difference in photos. The bottom/darker bra is the real Lilyette. I ordered the same size as the original one and this knock off one is much smaller in both cup size and band size- by more than an inch. The color and material is slightly different also, though the style is the exact same. As you can see in the photos, this bra is also missing the “Lilyette” name. I will be returning this and purchasing a legitimate Lilyette bra from a different website.

This bra is like most other bras. The fit is fine, if perhaps a bit small in the cups. And it has decent support. But the unusual problem I have with it is it’s noisy. Both straps make a squeaky noise when I move or twist. My husband actually asked if I had creaky old bones all of a sudden because my bra made these noises when I stood up. It sounds kind of like when you move the legs on a Barbie doll. It’s the strangest thing. This isn’t a problem I anticipated having with an undergarment, but it’s noisy enough that I don’t think I would wear it out to dinner and definitely not to a library. I’ve washed it once. It’s possible the fabric will soften over time and the noises will stop, but I thought it was necessary to warn others about it, just in case your lifestyle demands silent lingerie. Don’t wear this bra if you’re a Ninja.

Recently purchased a Lilyette Bali bra from store, but they only carried black and white. Wanted more color options so I ordered 2 more online. Both the bras I received from Amazon are much smaller than the ones I purchased of the same size at the store. Also very different material, the ones purchased online are not Satin like bras from store, but a very scratchy material. Sooo disappointed! DO NOT BUY. The black bra in the picture is the one I purchased from the store, has a tag and made in Indonesia. The gray bra in the picture is the one I purchased online, has no tag and mad in Honduras.

I ordered a half dozen minimized bras on Amazon after trying some at Soma and Nordstrom. I've got to say that this one really does what it's supposed to do. I wear usually wear a 32C in bras, but since 34 was the smallest band in this model, I ordered that. It fit fine on the tightest hook. As far as shape, it minimizes enough so that I can button blouses that often gaped at the bust. Also it doesn't flatten like a sports bra, or push the girls toward your sides like some minimizers do. You get to keep a natural shape but without as much projection. The bra itself is fairly attractive. The only downside is that since there is no padding, if you're wearing a tight tee and you're cold, it shows. I solved this by adding the bra liners that came with my lululemon bras and tanks with no additional projection added, just a layer of privacy. I will be ordering more of this bra.

This bra is made out of really nice material and I do believe I ordered the right size. However, even after adjusting the bra the right shoulder strap keeps falling off and is becoming very irritating. They underwear is also twisting and has become very irritating. I am going to have to throw it away for fear I will put it back on and forget how horribly I struggled with it all day.This is something that I really don't have a problem with in other bras designs. Even after making several adjustments this bra is struggling to fit properly. That being said, there are no bras that are comfortable for me. I have scoliosis and the bras that are suggested for my condition or just way out of my price range. My bra size is somewhere around a 38H or a 40G.
