Wonderbra Women's Ultimate Strapless Underwire Bra

I just want to start by saying I've been a bra fit specialist for a few years and I've got a pretty good idea of how a bra should fit and how to properly measure. That said, on with the review! I have been a US 36H for a few years now but after losing weight, I'm now measuring as a 34H. I read some of the other reviews and decided to size up and order a 36I and I'm glad I did. The band is snug, as it should be because most of your support comes from the band. But this is very tight. It's easy to see this because the two sides are shorter than what you'dexpect, even on a strapless bra. The band also has these little silicone nodes to act as grips to keep the bra from sliding. The cups are smaller as well. At a glance, they may look large. But when you view the inside of the bra, you can see that the cups are shallow and the space for the breast tissue is much smaller than it appears. This bra actually has great side support as it has some firm panels to push the sides in. When seem from the inside, it resembles hands actually lifting and supporting the breasts. I'm honestly on the fence about whether to keep this bra. I do need a new strapless bra but at the same time, I don't have many garments with plunging necklines like this.

This has been my go to strapless bra since about 2014 and throughout the years I’ve bought a few replacements. Though this is my first time buying it off Amazon. In the past I’ve usually bought this bra in a size 30DD however it was not available at the time of purchase so I got a 32D. Usually with the 30DD that I’ve had in the past it fits very snug when on the tightest hook but I like the support and cleavage it gives and how it holds in place. One of the downsides of this bra in this particular size (30DD) that I’ve experienced is that it sometimes digs into my upper ribs. When this happens it can cause some discomfort so best to loosen it up and adjust it to the least tightest hook. As for this 32D size I ordered here, I will say that it doesn’t fit as snug. But it still holds and gives good support/cleavage though not as tight/dramatic as the 30DD would be. But it still does the job. Since this size is a lot more loose fitting than the 30DD I have not had any discomfort. For me, this is not an everyday bra. I usually only wear it when I am wearing tops or dresses that need a strapless bra worn with it. Also because of the design of the bra the bottom part is slightly elongated. So depending on what top or dress you are wearing it can show the outline of the bra. I would highly recommended hand washing. I’ve had a few times when Ive gotten lazy and threw the previous ones I’ve had into the washing machine. It just ends up getting damaged. I’ve had some dented on the cup and then it doesn’t look good under clothes.

Full disclosure: I felt like an idiot buying something called a Wonderbra. I’m 51 and wasn’t interested in becoming some boobalicious babe, I just wanted a freaking strapless bra that worked for me. I tried *a lot* of strapless bras. Some didn’t hold up, some left weird lines under shirts, all of them were disappointments. Then I watched a YouTube bra fitting expert and the Wonderbra was one of her recommendations. So glad I gave this one a try. FITTING NOTES: This bra’s band sits slightly lower on the torso so you’ll want to go UP in the band size. I’m usually a 34D/DD and the Wonderbra 36C fits perfectly. I tried my usual band size & trying to hook it was a joke. Just size up the band & adjust your cup size & it’s perfect. So it fits like a dream and looks great under clothes — none of those weird lines or ending up with a bubble boob because the bra top cuts too hard across the top of the breast. But how does it perform? The Wonderbra goes on and stays put. I bounced about my bathroom to check but real life convinced me. I wore it under a halter dress to a graduation ceremony. I was running a bit late 😑 so I basically power walked from the car to the building and trust when I say that bra DID NOT MOVE. Wore it for a few hours that day and never once tugged it back into place which is a first for me with a strapless. Give Wonderbra a shot and see if it works for you, too. I’ll never buy another strapless brand again.

**NEW Updated Review** After I bought this bra, I ended up not wearing it with anything for about a month, finally I tried it on with several different tops and I don’t like it. The band under the cups is so wide you would be able to see it under crop tops because it ends half way down your torso. If you’re wearing a thinner material shirt that’s form fitting, you can also see the built in “hand” molding that cups your boobs from the outside of the shirt. I found myself finding more shirts that I couldn’t wear this strapless bra with than tops I can wear it with. I wish I could return it, but I missed the return window. 😩 **Original Review** I thought I was safe ordering this bra in a 36E, but I was WRONG. I’m normally a 36DDD and this bra was so tight I couldn’t breathe, it actually gave me a headache after wearing it for 5 minutes. On top of the fact that it was so restricting around my torso, the cup size was way too small as well, I was spilling out of it. I returned it, and ordered a 36G (the biggest size they have) which fits much better. It’s still very snug around the band, but the cup sizes fit.

Review of the Wonderbra strapless bra ref. WB032D in nude/skin colour: Delivery: on time, as expected, although parcel was left outside my door. Packaging: bra came in it’s plastic bag (on first picture) and that came inside another plastic, postal grey bag. It was properly sealed on arrival. Bra: new, with tag. Clean, apparently unused. Fit is ok but it’s true to size. I am 5’7” and 183 pounds, my bra size is 38DD on Victoria’s Secret and 38D on Playtex. I purchased a 38E on this strapless and it’s perfect. Pros: new item, true to size, stays put thanks to the silicone dots on the inner aspect of the back. Cons: the smell of new is very plastic-like, it reminds me of the smell of new dolls, the ones with plastic faces and synthetic hair, when I was a child. I don’t like it. Also, I wish the cups also had a silicone band at the top to help keep the breasts in place. As I move, they sort of “slide” inside the cups, although the fitting is spot on. The inner hand-shaped supporting feature of the cups does not offer much support sideways so it does not bring the breasts together, which is the chief feature of Wonderbra. Finally, the sewn label says the colour is black; this, together with the smell and the poor sideways support, and bearing in mind I have owned multiple bras from this brand in the past, makes me believe the item is fake. If it’s not, the brand has dropped the quality of its products.

This is not hyperbole. This is for real. This is a significant sartorial milestone. For too long my love of tank tops and shoulder baring dresses has been hindered by my hatred and impatience with sub par bras/ various sticky boob accoutrements. But NO MORE! My days of Kim K inspired boob tape are behind me. This bra is very lightweight (no push up padding) but also has great shaping. It looks like you are wearing a regular bra with invisible straps. They accomplish this by putting plastic boning into the cups of the bra. It stays up really well. The inside of the band is embossed by grippy plastic dots. It is very structured and sort of stiff so you will not have any headlight difficulties. Most importantly, I forget I am wearing it all, which is the hallmark of all awesome bras. I will say that the one potential con is that the band is a bit tight. If you are between sizes, I would size up.

Cup: right size Band: FAR too small ( I have have had to use an extender and it's still tight) and that's why I have it such a low rating (eg if you are a 32 band then maybe order 36. I am a 32 in many brands; I try to wear a 36 in Victoria's Secret because their largest cup is still too small so I go up 2 band sizes to try to give the up some space (not an ideal way to go but VS isn't inclusive enough). So I was super surprised to find this band being too small. I am wondering if they made it tighter because it's strapless and went too far. For Wonderbra, I find that you shouldn't bother with matching the band to the method used to find your hand size because whatever the tape measure says you will need to go a few inches up with Wonderbra to get a comfortable fit. With other brands the only issue is usually the cup and if it's the American sizing or British (they should just standardize internationally). I also rated it lower because there are better cup fits and feels from Wonderbra. I think (minus the band issue) it's a great bra for small to medium cups. For us very busty women I think it's not such a great strapless bra - there are better ones from us from the brand. I measured the band and it's about 6 inches smaller than expected so go 2 band sizes up Just in case you are wondering: it does not come with straps or attachment areas for the straps.

Let me preface this by stating that I am the *worst* about writing reviews. Of the countless items I have purchased off of Amazon over the years, this is my very first written review - which speaks volumes about this bra. I have always had a tough time finding bras in general that fit my breast shape and size properly, and strapless ones seemed nearly impossible. My girls are wide-set, semi-splayed, and sadly a bit settled/soft from fluctuating weight over my lifetime. I'm currently a 34/36D. The only strapless I've ever even remotely cared for was the Wacoal Red Carpet strapless and that is being generous. I'd all but completely given up hope...until today. I did some serious in-depth research recently in a last ditch effort to find a reasonable strapless for my honeymoon in May, and I came across this one by Wonderbra. I figured "what the heck - I'll give it a shot." Well, it arrived this morning and Oh. My. God. FINALLY! This bra holds me up with just the right amount of perk and gives the perfect forward projection that I so desperately need. The side support is AMAZING. I've worn it around the house for the past two hours and haven't felt it slip even the slightest bit. Yes, the band is snug - as it should be for any meaningful support out of a strapless bra. I highly recommend giving it a try!

Daughter bought a ball gown with a low cleavage and this is perfect. Feels secure and fits well. Much more sturdy and supportive than some strapless bras. Worth the money

I am small chested and have tried so many strapless bras over the years and they have all been super uncomfortable. I was nervous about purchasing this one because it’s quit pricey but omg I am so happy I did, this bra fits great, is super comfy, and stays in place. Definitely worth the money

Comfy and doesn't eat into the skin

Me encanta, el mejor bra strapless para gente con busto grande, soy 36DD y este bra no solo tiene súper soporte, sino que ademas se ve sexy y no te saca gorditos! 100% recomendado!

This really keeps your booms in place. I bought a massive 38D and it was digging like hell into my ribs and left red marks. There isn't a 40D for sale at the time so maybe that would not have. I will buy a bra extender, which is not ideal as they do not look good. But hopefully that will fit the issue as this bra is handy what with it holding you in place so well being a strapless.
