HALLELUJAH & AMEN!!!Those are the two (2) words I am using to describe this wonderful strapless bra. Now ask me WHY?Because...This bra is specifically made for the unfortunate? women, like me?, that was NOT naturally born "blessed" w/ the endowment of large, beautiful breast, NOR rich enough to "buy" them either. (Chuckle) I used to be a SOLID "B" cup. BUUUT...thru the ravages of having three (3) babies eons ago, the inescapable process of gravity taking its toll, & losing a lil "mass" thru the years of simple evolution, I am just a tad shy of fully filling-out my "B" cup any longer. (See...told ya, NOT one of you "fortunate" souls! Lol) This fabulous strapless bra does wonders to make-up for my sad "deficiencies." It adds lift & support, PLUS (BIG "+") indeed looks as if it adds MUCH needed volume to my cup size w/ the extra padding it offers. (Hallelujah!) I am so pleased w/ the way this bra enhances the girls & perks them up! It helps my breasts look extra fuller (which I was desperately searching for, reading thru countless Reviews of ALL the different bras being sold! Uggh!) & fills out my blouses & tops in a natural looking manner. (Not "fake" & padded looking.) If you are like me...needing that extra "Umph!," than THIS is the bra for YOU!! (I actually look 1-2 cups bigger!?) HOWEVER, - in agreeing w/ other Reviewers - if you are already in possession of ample boobies (Lol), this bra may NOT be what you need. The extra padding just might take you "over-the-top" & may NOT give you the look you may want to achieve. (Unless, of course, that IS the look you are hoping for AND wanting! Smile!) You'd best be served by a bra w/ "light" padding, as THIS bra offers some significant padding. I ordered the Blush/Skin-tone colored bra in a 36"B," my normal/typical size & the fit is fine. The band feels comfortable around my chest/back & it holds everything UP & IN PLACE, as promised/described. I ❤love? THIS bra sooo much, I came back & ordered it in Black, HOWEVER...in a SMALLER size: 34"A," as I suspect I might feel a lil MORE secure in a tighter version & get away w/ it. I believe I could still fit into the smaller band size okay, and the extra padding would still offer me that add'l "Umph" I so desperately need. (I hope MY Review helps all of you women (sadly, like me!) searching for that: "I-just-need-a-lil-MORE-of-SOMETHING" type of bra, because "I-just-DON'T-have-ENOUGH!" It took me awhile + a few Trial & Errors, to FINALLY find this exceptional bra! It's a KEEPER!? AMEN!!?)
