It took me several weeks to test Sugar Candy bralette and compare it with other bras. I selected the size M with my bra size 32H (European size: 75H). This should be right size for me. When I received the package and first put the Sugar Candy bralette on, I was shocked at the pressure under the breast and on the shoulders. I thought, I might get accustomed to it and went for a walk. Yes, I got accustomed to the pressure under my breast, but not to the unbearable pain on my shoulders. I wondered: What is wrong? I loosened the straps and the bra band, but the bralette didn't have any hold then, it wrinkled and bulged. So I consulted the web site https://www.sugarcandybra.com/. There is a video on how to put Sugar Candy on and I followed the instructions. I adjusted the length of the straps so that it should stabilise the bralette but not carry the weight of my boobs. So then there was not much hold and lift any more, but there was still more pain as with my other non-wired bras. I was confused. I examined the question more closely and took measurements. I determined, that without bra there are 7.5 cm from the mammary fold to the lowest part of my boobs. When I put on Sugar Candy bralette in the manner planned, then it lifted my boobs 5 cm. This is a lot! Almost no sagging! But overbearingly painful on my shoulders! As the measurements revealed, my comfortable non-wired bras only lift my boobs 1-2 cm. But they still make a huge difference: they make my boobs fuller, rounder and they relieve the ligaments. When I adjusted the Sugar Candy straps to lift my boobs only 1-2 cm, the pain was bearable (stronger than with my other non-wired bras, however) but I disliked the shape. It almost looked like I had no bra on. So this bra only seems to work with lot of lift what causes a lot of pain. I also tried crossing the straps – with the longest straps possible – but the pain on my shoulders and back was absolutely unbearable!

I had one breast reduced in size due to breast cancer and needed a pocketed bra for my prosthesis. Finding almost nothing I need in my size I resorted to buying bigger sizes and cutting and stitching them, but still nothing worked. Having read the review of another lady I decided to give the Sugar Candy a go. I’m a 32GG/34G and found the medium was a good fit and so comfortable! I had to stitch a cup from an old bra in as the sling did not quite hold the prosthesis properly but it is so worth it. I need flesh and black and am considering buying more before my second surgery. I wish Bravissimo did post-surgery bras as it was so depressing when you at your lowest and facing a mountain of treatment to feel like ‘you don’t exist’. Thank you Bravissimo for catering to my size. Dealing with other companies has also highlighted how fantastic your customer service is.

I bought three different soft bras to help with recovery from laparoscopy. This was the one I kept. For a soft bra the support is excellent (no back ache) and the shape is pretty good too (looks okay in a t-shirt). Inside there are double thickness, stretchy slings at the bottom of the cup and up the side. This makes it quite chunky but provides the support. The straps are wider than a typical bra in my size. The band is thick and sturdy and only rolls up when I'm sat scrunched up. Separation is better than expected for a soft bra but not as good as a wired bra of course. There are 6 sets of hooks which makes it quite flexible for band size but what lets it down is that actually these don't accommodate smaller band/larger cup dimensions very well. I'm a 32G and bought a medium. The cups are pretty decent, have lots of stretch and no bulging unless I've been stooped, but I would say this is the absolute limit of the fit for the medium as they fit more balconette than full cup in how far up the breast they go (unlike the photo). I have to wear it on the smallest hook setting (so no accommodation for stretch over time). Really the bra isn't designed for the 32-G relative size and others who have a large difference between band and cup will have similar issues. Anyone 32 and >G (or equivalent at other band sizes) will find this too big in the band I think. I would guess the medium is more a 32F ratio at most.

I think I have found the holy grail of bras. Non wired and supportive with a good shape. I cant recommend it enough. So comfortable. I am normally a 30FF or 32 F depending on brand and i went for M. It fits perfectly.

I really wanted a nice non-wired bra that doesn’t feel and look like a sports bra. Based on the size chart I ordered xs (I wear 28GG). The bra fits well everywhere except for the upper part of the cups. My breasts are set quite high and close to each other, but are no more as firm as they used to. The upper part of the cup is pressing into my boobs, which is a bit uncomfortable and visible. I can’t wear this bra in public but I’m keeping it for home use. I guess it was too much to ask that a general sizes like xs-xl would really be a great fit :/

I always buy from Bravissimo. I wanted a non wired / all day lounge bra. I am a 34 ff/ 34 g. I ordered the M and the fit is very good. No problem with straps slipping down. How I loathe all the groping around for a bra strap when one is out and about. I have spent a couple of hours gardening and it was SO comfortable. I found it very supportive. I have worn it all day and plan to purchase another. The underwires may have to be phased out for me perhaps.

I’ve tried other non wired bras and they either give me a mono boob or lack the actual support needed...this bra scores on both shape and support! The shape looked a bit strange at first compared to underwired but actually when I put my T-shirt on the shape is ok and good lift, the inner sling really works! I’m probably going to wear it in the day as it’s so comfy. I tried the medium and large after reading the reviews. I’m usually a 32GG or 34 G, I found the large was just too big and although the medium felt a bit small in the cup, tiny bit of side bulge, it offered a better shape so went for the medium. Now that I’ve worn it for a couple of hours I don’t even notice I have it on! It’s such a wonderful feeling to be free of those horrid wires digging in!! Why can’t someone design a bra with softer wires or 3D print a bra to our specific shape, now that I would pay money for, till then this bra is second best lol. Have ordered another one in nude!

Saved the day when I fractured a rib and couldn't breathe without a bra on to lift the weight off of my diaphram. This is seriously supportive for a soft bra. I used the live chat function on the site to get advice on which bras to buy and this was recommended. I bought XS my usual size is 30F
