 To know Bali is to love itJul 07, 2010
This is nothing short of a screaming deal. If you are full figured, you know what a problem it is to find a decently priced, well made, designer bra. Bali is a name brand in this area, and their bras are excellent quality, and pricey. To get this bra at $7.80, in white, including super saver shipping, is incredible; you cannnot even match this price at outlet stores. I originally bought three of them about three weeks go, and they just arrived. The sizing is true to other Bali bras I have purchased. I just put one on, and it is wonderfully comfortable. One particular feature that was not described on the web page, nor in reviews, is the back closure. It was just what I wanted: four hooks (vertical), in three separate sets (that means there are 12 separate hooks) for providing about one inch play in the width. Again, this type of closure is difficult to find. The only thing that I would have liked was some elastic on the straps; however, they do adjust in front to somewhat avoid cutting into the shoulder. As of today, they are still at this ridiculous price, so I ordered three more.
Next day note: I wore the bra for over 10 hours yesterday, and it's the closest thing I've found to not wearing one at all. To address concern in other reviews regarding the shaping, i.e., looking "pointy", yes, there is a bit of that. For those who prefer form fitting clothing, this could be a problem. This is not a minimizer bra; those will flatten you out if you prefer that look, but the price you pay is in comfort. At my age, 62, I can tolerate the peaked look because it totally beats the saggy look. I tend to wear my blouses and sweater tops very loose, so that this issue is not a problem for me. At the very least, this bra is perfect for working in the garden, when I'm typically wearing an oversized T-shirt. Another note regarding itching...mine do not, and I have pretty sensitive skin. However, a suggestion would be to wash the bra first before wearing it the first time.

 Neither Comfortable Nor AttractiveJul 01, 2010
I was looking for a casual bra to wear when I worked in the yard and chose this one based on reviews and price. It's going back.
The bra is thin with old fashioned pointed nipples. The material fails to stretch to adapt to breast dimensions, causing some areas to be too tight and others too loose. It felt uncomfortable (not too tight - just too rough) as soon as I put it on.
Because it's a Bali, it's probably durable and would hold up over time better than cheaper bras but I just can't get over the positive reviews so I'm giving it only one star.
For a better fitting and much more comfortable bra, try a Victoria's Secrets wireless cotton bra. It gives you the smooth coverage you want, excellent support, and you won't even know you are wearing it.
 Pointy Boobs and Itchy FabricJun 21, 2010
Pointy boobs and somewhat itchy fabric. That's what you'll get. The lining of the bra is also a bit oddly done and strangely cut at the back. Good support though. And worth it for under $10 if you are mainly looking for an inexpensive bra that functions properly.

 Itchy BraMay 06, 2010
I hate this bra! The material is itchy, even after several washings. The wires poke me all the time and the bra is just generally uncomfortable. I just went back to wearing my old bras and I've given up on these. If you're looking for a comfortable bra, this is not one. The only positive things are: the straps adjust in the front and the color is nice. I simply cannot stand to have this bra on my body.
Good support for good priceMay 05, 2010
In the process of ordering another a year after my last one has underwire poking through. I paid $17 last year & now it's down to $7.50 w/ free shipping. To be honest, I wouldn't order another one if not for the decline in the price. The issue w/ this bra is that it gives a very pointy, 1950's look. It supports well & is reasonably comfortable, however you just have to be careful what you wear it with or even try a cami over it. For the price now though, it's worth it.
