I never write reviews but just had to for this bra. I had major doubt this would work for me as I'm a plus size gal and was afraid first this bra would not hold up my girls and second my fat belly would some how get in the way. Well I got the bra tried it on and was very very impressed. It did exactly what it needed to do. Read the other reviews on this bra (some of them are very funny ) and then just buy it! You will be glad you did.

I love this bra so much I have 8 of them for every day of the week, plus 1 extra. But now I have problems getting my arm behind my back to access the clasp and I'm devastated. Wacoal, can you please make a red carpet strapless that has a front closure for those of us who have shoulder injuries but still want a nice supportive strapless? How do I advocate for this? I can't be the only woman with this issue.

I purchased the Wacoal Red Carpet Strapless Bra 854119, It was the first strapless I had ever purchased. This is the most comfortable bra I have ever had on. I wear a 42DDD and It holds me up with comfort.

Great strapless bra: stays put without creating back roll, gives a normal shape, and is as comfortable as I could expect a strapless bra to be. I wear a 36C or D in everyday bras, and the 34DD is perfect. Note it does not create "lift" like on the model, or at least it doesn't do that for me.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
After reading others’ reviews, I really hoped this would work well for me. I wear 32DD in everyday bras from Wacoal and Fantasie, and even in a Boden swimsuit. The sister size 34D never works in an everyday bra for me; the band creeps up in the back. I tried this bra in 32DD, 32DDD, 34D, and 34DD. I had spillage in all 4 sizes. (The 32DD was downright comical.) As expected, 34 was too loose and wouldn’t stay up, AND still had spillage, ESPECIALLY as it fell. Possibly a 32G would work, but I’m too frustrated to bother. Why is fitting a strapless bra so hard? Haven’t the engineers had DECADES to figure it out?

I love the look of an off the shoulder top, but I thought my days of wearing strapless bras were over because I'm 55 and a 34DD, but after reading the fantastic reviews for this Red Carpet Bra, I decided to give it a try. This bra is truly a marvel! I wore it for nine hours today (strolled around the city and went out to dinner) and I didn't feel the need to hoist it up nor did I rush to take it off at the end of the day. It's not as comfortable as an everyday bra, but it's great for a special evening. The bra creates a natural, rounded shape with separation and lift. (By the way, I used the "Find Your Fit" tool and my result was a 34D even though I wear a 34DD in Bali and Vanity Fair, so I ordered one of each. The 34DD is still my perfect fit.) I can't wait to wear it with a strapless dress!

I am completely surprised how much I love this bra! My bra Sales Advisors know "no padding at all" is my first request as 36G. I dont even like "molded foam" cups but the unpadded strapless didn't come in my size and I needed a strapless bra for an evening gown. To my surprise, this bra didn't make me look bigger and I didn't pull it up or adjust it after dancing the entire night. The bra did not move! I own 35 Wacoal bras and this is my #1. I own it in every color.

I was skeptical. Took a chance after trying several sizes (bands and cups). I wore it yesterday and it was comfy for about five hours, and I didn't have to pull it up at all during that time. I usually wear a 36 DDD. I ended up with the 36 G in this one. The band is a tad looser than I wanted but the 34 G and 34I cups were too small though the band fit a bit better. I'm now looking forward to wearing cami strap, one-shoulder, or strapless dresses this summer.

Best strapless for those of us with larger cup needs. I sized up from a DDD to a G and sized down my normal 34 to a 32 and it fits perfectly. Doesn't move. I'm a huge bargain and clearance shopper. I paid full price for 2 of these bra's and do not regret it.

Wow! A strapless bra that is actually comfortable, stays up, and looks natural under clothing? Who would have thought it possible? This bra lives up to its hype. And don't be fooled into thinking this is just a bra for a big busted sisters. I'm a B-cup and it fits perfectly. I'm usually a 34B, but I followed Walcoal's sizing instructions. According to my measurements, they recommended a 36B. Being skeptical, I ordered a 34B and and 36B and sure enough, the 36B fit perfectly. A bra this good was worth the extra price!

Order your normal band size. Don't size down! I listened to other reviews and ordered a band size down and felt like the band was suffocating and created the "bra back fat" appearance. Cup size is spot on. Great durable bra. Made of good quality. Waiting for my correct size to come in. Comes with straps!

I have never been able to wear a strapless bra before. I wear 34 DDD and it's been imposible to find a strapless bra that will actually stay up. No MORE! I've found it and I cannot believe it. I put it on and shook myself around, jumped and I couldn't believe it was still in place, INTACT! It definitely worked for me.

I love this bra. I am a 30G and this is the only strapless bra that has ever been worth its salt. Very comfortable, underwire does not hurt in the underarm area as with some bras and there is minimal slipping. The convertible straps are great, too, I bought it to wear with a one shoulder dress so it really helps keep everything "up and at 'em."

I am so excited about this bra. I just received it and I absolutely love it. I am very small with a big bust (normally a 28FF). I always have to drive an hour and a half away to a place to have my bras custom made and am always spending about 75-90 per bra. I ordered this in the 30G and it fits perfect. This is my first strapless bra and I couldn't be happier. It is comfortable and supportive.

Really happy with this purchase. This is a big bra that takes up a lot of real estate on the chest but it does what I wanted it to do. I wore this to a wedding and was able to dance all night without being uncomfortable. Definitely does the job without being painful!

This is the best strapless bra I have ever worn. It gives a nice shape, as nice or nicer than a regular bra, is supportive and comfortable. It comes in a wide range of sizes (I wear 32dd). Price is reasonable. I wear it with tank tops that are cut too deep on the sides for a regular bra and it looks great. Would purchase again!

Wow! Never thought I would be able to wear a strapless bra but after reading reviews I decided to try. So glad I did cause this bra is amazing. Great support & I don't feel like I'm going to fall out. Gives me so many wardrobe options. I'm a 38DDD but ordered a 36G and it's perfect!

This bra is amazing! I HATE strapless bras but that's probably because I could never find one to fit me right. But this one scoops up my girls and gives them the support they need!! (My cleavage looks pretty!) It takes a little getting used to it because I haven't had on a strapless bra in a VERY LONG TIME! My shoulder indents couldn't be happier! My shoulders are FREEEEEEE! I only wish it came in more colors and patterns, such as floral. This bra opens up a whole new shirt wardrobe for me! Thanks ZAPPOS!

Love this bra! It can be worn with all of my favorite summer dresses! Just because I'm "plus sized" doesn't mean I can't wear awesome clothes and feel awesome in them! This strapless bra helps a lot! Thanks again Zappos!

This is it. The only strapless that will hold me up. 32DDD in my 40's and I have had 4 kids. Love Zappos for quick service and was so happy to see that they carried this product. I was not worried about a return since they are so fabulous with returns but I lucked out and it worked! Just ordered the nude for my lighter colored dresses! Thanks Zappos.

Being smaller band- bigger cup combo I've never had a strapeless actually do it's job. This one works!!! I did have to go up a couple of cup sizes but it's fine. It has support, coverage, and most importantly it stays in place! Tried it on with clothes & looks amazing! Ill be ordering another before its discontinued... which would be a huge disservice to us all!
