I love these!!! BUT....
(Scroll down straight to review if you want to skip โdee short intro)Okay, so I really do like this bra set. To be real, I bought this set for the nude bra alone because Iโve been on a desperate search for nude-colored bras that are 95-100% cotton to wear for under my white Tโs when I go out. (This bra is 90% cotton, but thatโs definitely good enough given the limited options out there... and sheesh, I whole-heartedly feel for some of you ladies who have allergies to synthetic fabrics ๐ญ). My reason being as of this year Iโve been quickly ditching all traditional bras (especially underwire) and switching over to either very simple bralettes or all-cotton lounge bras (aka Fruit of the Loom so-called โsportsโ bras ... AKA what I consider crop spaghetti strap bra/cropped tanks top bra, imho) whenever I am not going braless. For health reasons I just prefer to let my ribcage breathe rather than be constricted by tight bands, suffocating fabrics and metal wiring. If it can be helped.So even after my recent switch to bralettes, most in my stash are made of 100% synthetic fabrics. Very quickly I noticed that, compared to my cotton-based bralettes, the synthetic fabrics are hotter, not as breathable and make me sweat more. As a result, I have been finding myself heavily drawn to wearing natural fibers instead, so Iโm now more picky when choosing bras to purchase. This FOTL brand has TOTALLY spoiled me (๐) cause they make such great 100% cotton undergarments and I grab for them almost every time. My only problem is finding a nude color in (mostly) cotton bralettes/bras. They are extremely hard for me to find, whether it be online or in store. Thatโs because smooth, underwire-free types of bras tend to automatically fall under the โseamlessโ category (in other words polyester/nylon/rayon/spandex and ALL the like). While I am in need of a nude bra that looks smooth under a white Tshirt, I want it in a natural fiber โ not plastic. LMBO. Thatโs where THIS bra comes in.Alright. On with the review.This bra set gets 4 STARS from me. โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธMy PROS:โข I love that it is NOT padded at all. It is lightly-lined but DONโT confuse it with โlightly linedโ as in having a really thin pad inside, like some bras define it as. This one literally has two layers of stretchy cotton fabric and that is IT. Nips (the color) did not show through the bras, neither for the nude nor the white. Was surprised by that one, especially given the fact itโs only two layers of cotton. Please note, these are a pro for ME. If you are, for example, looking for a bra with a little more โpadding,โ then this bra is not for you.โข The cotton cups were very comfortable. It felt pretty light-weight, breathable and barely there. I could even see that it would stretch to accomodate more breast volume as well. After three kids, volume for me isnโt as much as it use to be but iโm okay with that ๐๐. But I digress...โข Generally well-made. Sturdy, nice seams. Strong hooks. High quality fabric in my personal opinion, even though it is meant to be a light bra (weight-wise.)My CONS:โข Alright, I will add to the small band rhetoric going on here in the review section. While cup size was perfect, band size does seem to RUN SMALLER. I am a 36A and this bra fits me like a 34B (which is my sister size). And I am talking about having my bra hooks on the loosest setting, which is 4 hooks โ not 3. Based on bra fitting rules, if you go up in band size, you have to go down in cup size. So for me this means, if I size up to a 38 band, I have to go down to AA in cup size. Unfortunately, there is no 38AA option for this bra. So i will have to stick to this available size. I can always purchase a bra extender if I decide I need to. Also, to avoid shrinkage i will definitely have to handwash this in cold water exclusively ๐. With that said, the band is very sturdy and nicely made but runs small so definitely size up on the band when purchasing, if you have that option.My general measurements:Height: 5โ2โWeight: 112-118lbTypical bra size: 36ANOTE***: I have included pics of the bras for you to analyze. I took close-up pics of the cup fabric so you can see the material and thinness of it. I hope the images can translate that well. Some previous reviewers mentioned a mesh material on the inside of the cups. There is NO mesh on either of mine. My best guess is the company probably heeded the complaints of some and removed them completely (or else previous reviewer recieved an older model of it?? Who knows.) Also, the band size on both of my bras are consistent. (Good. I canโt afford to sacrifice any more inches on that thang.) One may appear to be slightly shorter in the pic, but donโt let it fool you โ I just couldnt get it to perfectly lay flat, LOL. Last but not least, the lighting from my window did contribute to my nude-colored bra to look a lighter in the pictures than it really is. So do consider that.Welp, thereโs that.Well wishes to you on your bra search, lovely stranger. ๐๐

So comfortable
I have tried many types of wireless bras as I donโt like the underwires but it has been a challenge finding bras that keep my DD/E breast separated and supported. So many of them press the breasts together with that sweaty and unflattering look. These keep the breast in place and separated and as flattering as a plain cotton type of bra can be. I followed advise in review and took bigger band-size (Iโm normally 34-36 and took 36) and fits well. Regarding support / nipple coverage the bra is double cotton so nipple see-through and light/medium support. I ended up buying two sets more as I see this as a good everyday bra and would recommend.

Looking forward to wearing
Glad I ordered a size up, runs small.There is no keyhole in the middle as shown in some pictures.Nips show through, but can easily slip in pads from other bras.

Bras not bralettes
They are just bras, nothing fancy, and a little scant for full figure.

can confirm, band runs small- order a size up
34G here and have wasted untold amounts of money in the search for a comfortable bralette that I don't spill out of or get uniboob in- who'd have thought it would end up being the bargain brand that gave me what I wanted ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ. I read the reviews about the band running small so I ordered a 36DDD, and since I am actually a 34 it works perfect for me (and there's no 34G anyway). Comfortable, no uniboob, no spillage, and enough support to keep things where they should be without giving me Playboy Bunny boobs. will definitely order more ๐๐ป

5 stars, but...
The bra is cute, stylish and mostly comfortable.I needed a bra without the foam pads they put in everything now. This bra gives me great coverage and support.The only thing I'm not loving is the band.I measured at 32B. I ordered a 36 as I'd read reviews that it ran tight. I can wear it but if it shrinks in the dryer, I don't think I'll be able to.When I measured the band, it's 25" long. I'm not stretching it when I put it on and really, no one could stretch it that much and wear it! I'd love to know how bra manufacturers figure out the sizing.I guess I'll be exchanging them for 38B.

Basic cotton bras. Does the trick.
I wanted some cheap, lightweight cotton bras that could be easily washed and dried. These fit the bill. I usually buy 32D but that size is not available, so I went with 34C. It fit alright. They donโt offer a whole lot in terms of support, but I wasnโt really concerned about that. I did have to tighten the straps all the way in order to fit nicely. The straps are thick towards the cups, so these look awkward when worn with tank tops. But they are fine under T-shirts. Note that of the 2 that I bought, for some reason the black bra itches me at the seam along the cup/armpit, even after multiple washes.

Good one!
Comfortable for wearing at home. Soft material, fits well, looks good, great value for money (itโs a set of two). My only qualm is the broad elastic band at the bottom, wish it were thinner. Other than that, love it!

Size up in band
I took the recommendations from others and sized up in the band and it fits. I ordered the 36ddd and for reference i usually wear a 34ddd in Wacoal bras. I can't attest to the durability yet but it does come with plastic notions for the straps so that's not the best in my opinion. As far as shape, I bought it to wear at home so I wasn't expecting much but it's not terribly bad for a large breasted person. Much better than being smashed together anyhow ๐

Great product for low price!
It does run a bit small, the band is tighter than I expected. Other than that this bra is super comfortable. The material is soft and I get much more support than i expected for a wire free bra, also the cut is very flattering it doesnt give me a set of armpit boobs like similar bras ive owned.

Great everyday bra!
Super comfy yet very supportive. Almost like a relaxed sports bra that you can take on and off without pulling it over your head.
