Great value – 2 bras in one
Frederick’s usual 2 or more bras for under $20 are always a great value. Because this is a reversible bra its like getting 4 bras for the price of two. Plus, lots of colors to chose from to mix and match with your everyday clothes.
Bands and Straps
The ½ inch straps and 1 inch spandex/elastic non-binding band provides great support and a snug fit. If you are looking for a no frills every day bra, this might be a good match for you.
Smooth Cups and Deep Plunge
The smooth surface outer cup and thin straps makes this bra great for tank tops or tops with a thinner material where bra material will show through. Plunge tank tops with a low scoop or V neck lines might look great over this bra as long as the tops of the cups do not show.
Dislikes
Utilitarian
Nicely fits under your clothes but by itself it’s a simple bra with no extras. A decorative lace trimming here or there goes a long way.
Full size bra
This bra should be advertised as a full size bra for larger sizes as there is still a bit too much material for a non-full sized bra. For a petite full busted girl a D may seem larger in real life than the advertise pictures. This is due to the cup size which does not change regardless of your band size. This is where bra style and cut will either make or break your wardrobe especially for the petite girl with large, D or higher, cup size. It’s also apparent that this bra did not target the large breasted girl where the maximum size available is a D.
Boyfriend Quotient
The boyfriend agrees that the bra is a bit large and can be overwhelming. That being said, he definitely liked the plunge and cleavage and liked the small material holding the cups together. If this had been a true demi he would have rated it higher.

Conclusions
While not a bad bra, I decided to return mine as it just didn’t fit what I was looking for. For those of you with larger implants I just don’t think this will satisfy you. In all reality, the larger cups sizes reflect a thought towards bigger girls in general, not a more slender woman with implants.
