I am 34H/I US size. 5’7” 145lbs. I am narrow root, projected, full on top and center full, more on the relaxed side. This bra. Is freaking comfortable! And somehow it gives you such a good shape. Not saggy, not flattened, not pulled apart, not uniboob. This was the winner for me. I honestly couldn’t believe how comfortable it was and still gave me enough shape to go outside. I can wear it under a tshirt and go out. It’s better than some wired bras imo. I think it’s the depth in the cup that works really well for my projected shape. The removable padding gives it a little more oomph to the lifted look, but my bf says it kinda looks like a torpedo. I like it with or without the pad. It’s full coverage, so if you try to wear anything with an open neck line, like a tank top, the top triangle part will show, unfortunately. I don’t know about smaller sizes, but Large Full Cup comes with 4 row hooks, which is really really nice, feels very secure. Straps are not convertible. I also tried the Medium Full Cup, since I’m planning on losing a little weight. It was do-able, but it was uncomfortable and I looked like I was squeezing myself into a scuba suit so I stayed with the Large Full Cup. I have heard other reviews say the bra doesn’t withstand begin washed very well, so we shall see how mine turns out. I’ve also seen others say that different colors have different inner side sling. The pink one has the thick version. But not to be confused with the side sling that comes in Sugar Candy bras. Sugar Candy ones actually give you support. Bravado ones do not. In fact, if you email Bravado, they will send you a conversion kit to turn your nursing bra into a normal bra. And the instructions will tell you to cut the inner side sling. I can literally pull the sling outward when I’m wearing the bra and nothing changes in terms of support. Again, I’m not nursing so I don’t know how the sling affects that part. I was getting ready to order 3 more of these suckers, when I found out that Bravado is releasing an everyday non nursing bra line in early 2021! I’m really hopeful that they are as comfortable and supportive as this bra. Waiting patiently. Read more
I'm currently pregnant with my second child and nursed my first. The entire time I nursed my first I never found a good fitting nursing bra. I wanted the Kindred Bravely bras to work out so bad, but I (like most women in America) have a shorter torso and the support was terrible. I started this pregnancy wearing a 34F(DDD), I'm probably a 34G(DDDD)/36F(DDD) at this point but I haven't delivered yet. This bra actually lift my breasts off my pregnant belly and holds everything in place! I originally purchased the M Full size, and while I can wear it on the loosest setting It's pretty tight and I have no room to grow. I then purchased a L Full size, and I think this is the right fit! I like my bands on the tight side, and I don't have to make the straps as short as possible like I have with every other bra I own. I will admit, the pads are kinds weird shaped, but I don't wear pads with my nursing bras. These bras do a great job or maintaining a natural breast shape without the pads, and if I actually need a pad I have disposable ones I use to keep my bras clean. Overall, this bra is the best option out there for large busted women! They're expensive, but in my opinion the support I get from these is worth every penny! Read more
I needed a supportive bra to wear while pregnant and for after. I am a size 38G/H usually and have never been able to wear a bra without underwire. I was skeptical to say the least. This bra is amazing! I've never had a bra that was so comfortable and supportive without underwire! The cups fit my large chest and it is very smooth under my shirts; the wide band smooths out my back and doesn't create the bra band bulge. Only thing is that the band is pretty snug. I have a band expander that came with another bra that I'm going to use. The next issue is to find this bra in a non-nursing style for when I'm done! I would fill my drawers with this single bra.

I would 100% recommend this bra to every nursing mom, especially those with larger chests. I wear it exclusively. Before having my daughter, I bought a number of nursing bras. They were okay at first, but as my supply came in these became more and more uncomfortable. The cups were too small and/or poorly shaped and changing sizes didn't help at all. I tried a number of other bras and really didn't find anything that worked well. One day I found two of these new at a thrift store and thought, "what the heck, I can at least try them for this price." Well, I wore those bras exclusively from that day forward. This bra provides the support of an underwire bra with the comfort of a wire-free bra. I am on the larger end of the scale for chest size and was really struggling to feel supported with anything else. These are amazing. When I was about 8-9 months postpartum, I ordered one size down from the original two I bought and it was the perfect transition that provided the perfect amount of support that really helped me feel more put together and like myself! I wear that new bra all the time and only use the larger ones when I need to wash it (hence why I bought a second one exactly the same). Read more
The bra is very beautiful and fit great! Down fall is the underwire does stab you in the armpit and the latch to breastfeed is stiff. I have to use both hands to unlatch it which frustrates baby cus I have to lay him down until I have it ready. The underwire is thick so the stabbing in the armpit sucks, but I just adjust it and all is better until it rides up again. Over all I do like the bra. Its very cute and flattering when most nursing bras are plane Jane this one gives you the sexiness from a normal bra. Other than the two downfalls I have mentioned I probably would recommend this to someone else because it is comfortable feeling. Read more
