HACIWomen's Front Closure Bra Underwire Unpadded T-Back Plus Size Lacy Full Coverage Racerback T-Shirt Unlined

A winner for big breasts
This bra is comfortable, fits very well, and is as sturdy as my Chantelle, Natori, and Wacoal bras. Given that I happily pay $80 for my favorite Chantelle model (Aeria Lightweight Convertible Bra), this was a bargain. I have washed it several times in a lingerie bag* in my HE front-load clothes washer and it's come through unscathed. (I give a long-winded argument for using lingerie bags below, and included an Amazon listing that would keep you in lingerie bags for life for $9.)I am a large enough cup size that STRUCTURE MATTERS. This is a workhorse bra that's not overly stodgy. The front clasp is easy to operate. The straps are neither too wide nor too narrow. The T-back offers a little extra lift and keeps the shoulder straps from feeling like they're going to fall down. It's comfortable and I can wear it all the way to bedtime. It separates the breasts gently so there's no mono-boob.I ordered my usual Chantelle size and it fit perfectly. The band laid flat against my chest all the way around, including the clasp. The cup was just right, too, with no muffin top and no wrinkles.This is not the right bra to go under t-shirts or stretchy/slinky materials, though. There's a seam running horizontally across the widest part and a lace top, both of which are VERY noticeable under those fabrics. If you need a bra that isn't visible under tees, I have bought and can recommend "DELIMIRA Women's Racerback Front Closure Plus Size Seamless Comfort Underwire Bra," which is currently $20 (!). It's also a front-closure bra with a racerback design, but it has a seamless cup. It's a lighter-weight material, and is not a workhorse, but is still sturdy.Here are all the bras I bought, tried on, and either kept or returned. Because everyone is different, something that worked for me may not work for you, but here's my list:KEPT:- Glamorise Full Figure Plus Size Lacey T-Back Front-Closure Wonderwire Bra Underwire- DELIMIRA Women's Racerback Front Closure Plus Size Seamless Comfort Underwire Bra- HSIA Women's Underwire Minimizer Bra Unlined Full Bust Bra Non-Padded Plus Size Bra Sexy lace Sheer Bandage Bra (Fit great with a very cool detail -- a separate string going above the cups -- which looks great under a deep v-neck top. Might be racy for some but I think it's perfect!)RETURNED:- HSIA Minimizer Bras for Women Full Coverage, Unlined Bras with Underwire Unpadded Bra for Large Breast Women- HSIA Womens Minimizer Front Clasp Bra Full Coverage Unlined Bras with Underwire Plus Size Full Figure Lace Bra for Big Breast- HSIA Minimizer Bras for Women Full Coverage, Comfortable Underoutfit Bra for Womens Plus Size Black/Nude/Pink Tshirt Bras (This one looked like it had real potential, but the fit was weird because of the fabric on the cup.)- HSIA Lace Minimizer Bras for Women Full Coverage Unlined Underwire Minimizing Plunge Bra (I was on the fence with this one, but decided to return it.)If you're not sure what size you wear, or if your bras don't lay flat without puckering or forcing a muffin top, consider getting fitted and buying one high-quality bra at Nordstrom. I have Chantelle and Natori bras that I've worn for a decade that still look and work like new. You're definitely not wasting money if you buy an excellent, well-fitting bra from a fantastic salesperson who knows what they're doing. Once you know what a great bra feels like, you can come back here for a bargain.*I've washed every single bra I own in the washing machine for 40 years. I PUT EACH IN ITS OWN LINGERIE BAG (important!) and they have never been damaged. That includes all my bras: Chantelle, Elomi, Natori, Simone Pérèle, Prima Donna, etc.- The lingerie bag serves as a reminder to take the bra out and air-dry it.- It keeps the bra from wrapping around other clothing, which could damage the bra. It also keeps the clasps from catching on anything while tumbling.- Get several lingerie bags to make it easy on yourself. Small bags or bra bags work best for bras. Medium bags (which are pretty huge, frankly) work best for shirts. No one would ever need a large bag.- If you wear dark bras, either get a black mesh bag or designate one bag to use in dark loads. The white mesh bags will begin to turn gray if mixed in a dark load.- Here's a great lingerie bag set: the "Pagetoc Mesh Laundry Bag Set of 6, White Delicate Durable Polyester Wash Bags with Zipper for Laundry Blouse Hosiery Stocking Underwear Bra and Lingerie." Make sure you get either of the sets that include “Bra bags.” https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CPPCPK5/ref=sspa_dk_detail_4?pd_rd_i=B07CPPCPK5&pd_rd_w=B95w0&content-id=amzn1.sym.d81b167d-1f9e-48b6-87d8-8aa5e473ea8c&pf_rd_p=d81b167d-1f9e-48b6-87d8-8aa5e473ea8c&pf_rd_r=YRH5NXYWNZVQFM89X3GH&pd_rd_wg=G0wpj&pd_rd_r=4fc1822c-0892-4579-b8e1-6a95129a18da&s=hi&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWxfdGhlbWF0aWM&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyMDlJWEhXQjFMOVdIJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUExMDM4NTU0S0hXUU4xTjVPUDgwJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA1MTc3NjMySUQxUktSNFVVVkZJJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfZGV0YWlsX3RoZW1hdGljJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ&th=1

Awesome for the price!
It is so hard to find a good bra without breaking the bank! This bra was amazing, well made and very pretty! I ended up purchasing 3 total. Beautiful fit and I love the extra fabric on the underside of the cups. It provides a little extra lift!

Can see lines through T-shirts
This fit perfectly and was really pretty!! However, the seam where the lace begins is too visible through my tops. 😩 Such a bummer because it was comfortable and pretty! Returned.

Best bra!
The MOST comfortable and best fitting beanie gotten in along time. I’ve swore by third love bras for years and have never bought anything different. I bought this bra because it was a race back and I needed on for a dress I bought. It’s easy front close and open! Fits beautifully and very flattering. Super comfortable. I will be buying all the colors ! For reference I wear a 38c I’m 5’1 130 lbs

Updated review from 5 to 1 Star
Updated ReviewSo it's just been a short week later and I have realized this is not the bra of my dreams. Shortly after I started wearing it, I noticed that I seem to be spilling out of the top of the cups. At first I thought perhaps maybe I ordered too small of a size, but one of my breasts is a full cup size smaller than the other and both of them were spilling out which made me realize it was the way the bra is designed and it gives a pretty ugly silhouette because you can see the top of the bra and then the breast coming out over the top. So I am actually really extremely disappointed with this bra because now I can't return it because I've been wearing it for about a week and I have washed it once and I will just not order from this company again. And here I was all set to order some more bras from them.Previous ReviewI have tried and returned numerous racerback bras and this is the first one that fit me perfectly. The moment I put it on it was comfortable and it's also extremely attractive and quality made. I'm very pleased with this and will probably order more in the future.

Great bra
This is a great bra! Very comfortable and looks good too. I bought it in two colors.

So comfortable!!
I love this bra! So comfortable and easy to put on because of the front closure. The front closure is a little flimsy, I can see it breaking if not handled carefully.

Pretty but not much support
Very pretty bra, and well made. I found it didn't have enough support for me, and was a struggle to fasten though.
