I'm thin but top-heavy. I wear a 34DD and ordered the XS/S. There is zero support so I went smaller to feel tighter. I had bought a M/L FreePeople bralette before and it was WAY too big/loose. This material is very stretchy. The straps on the back are really cute and perfect to wear under dresses and tanks. It serves its purpose and I love it. I would highly recommend.

I was actually shipped a different style of bra, but it is equally cute so I decided to keep it. It is very comfortable and fits me well at a 36C. The back is very cute and looks great under a strappy tank.

First off, I am approximately a 32C. This bra is extremely comfortable, but doesn't give any support. You could wear it under a sweater, but would really be letting it all hang out there if you were wearing a T shirt. I still love them (I purchased two) and wear them around the house on the weekends.

This bra looks great under sheer tees and backless tops. I was hoping for more of a sports bra-like support and fit, and found that this bra doesn't really offer much support at all. The material isn't super taut and I felt it ran kind of big. I wore it over a regular bra and it was fine for what I needed it for.

Made this purchase for my wife who was looking for a light comfortable bra with easy strap back. Being a man I had No idea what she had been talking about, so as a surprise I hit up good ol Zappos did a little searching found this for less bucks ordered it received it 2 days later and she was pleasantly surprised and We Didn't spend a absurd amount of money at Victorias Secret!

I love this bra. I now have it in three colors. I am a 36AA and it works great. It has a beautiful back that looks awesome in all these new shirts with keyholes in the back. If I was more than an A cup, I doubt that this bra would do the job. It does not have any support. But for little gals like me, it is perfect and very comfortable. I am not sure how well it will stand the test of time - we will see.

This bra is super comfortable and feels like I don't have anything on. The back is really cute and looks good with open or low back tops. Like others said, don't expect any support or padding. My only complaint with it is where the strap meets the front material, it's wrinkley and a little loose. I'm sure someone with even a slightly bigger bust wouldn't have this problem. I bought it in the graphite color, size xs/sm and I'm normally a 34a in bras. I just happened to find this bra at a discount score in black, size xs/sm and the fit is way different. feels a lot more snug and doesn't do the wrinkling thing on me, but it does want to ride up a little easier. Overall it's a pretty nice comfortable option to have.

Free People does seem to think everyone has little tight breasts, and oh how I wish this was true! But with 36Cs this bra only works when I put the little helps liner from another bra or swimsuit inside on the bottom, then I do not fall out. Also if you get a white or light color it will be looser then dark colors as the dye pulls the fabric tighter. Otherwise its very cool design looks good with open back and larger arm hole tops. Actually I am thinking of sewing a strip of 1" elastic on the bottom is if that helps since I have three of these.

I thought this bra was super cute, buy it needs something more underneath. I'm a 36C and I was falling out of the bottom. I wanted this to work out, but I had to return it.

Very cute and the blue color is great. But absolutely no support which is very disappointing. Couldn't keep it :(

The back of this bra is beautiful, but it offers NO support. I'm am small chested but do like a bit of lift...there was none.

The straps are VERY unsupportive - it's more an accessory than a bra.

I'm a 32D - this doesn't hold anything in place but is okay for wearing around the house as a second layer. The med/lg covers me all the way, but is loose in the back while the xs/sm feels a little risky but fits in the back.

The fit on this is way off - I'm a 34B with ribcage/shoulder proportionate to my 6' height. This bra offered zero support and felt very loose on me in XS/S size. Which is extremely disappointing, because it looks great and is super comfortable. I just have zero use for it as a bra - was able to pull a good 2" of extra fabric away from my under bust. Total bummer! Maybe different colours fit differently - I tried Graphite.

I am a 36 full c and got the large, it provides coverage but little to no support. This is not a 'bra', it's more part of your outfit. The back is adorable! I'm wondering if I should have tried the small instead? Would suggest getting both and returning the one that doesn't fit.

While the design is adorable, this bra is incredibly thin and offers no coverage or padding whatsoever. The size range is also way too large; I typically wear SM (2-4) and I felt the XS/SM was way too loose and roomy for a bralette because I am very petite. Might be comfortable for a 4-6 B cup fit, if you're comfortable with the thinness.

While this bra is a beautiful design, the fit is awkward. The bottom band in the front easily creeps up and doesn't stay put, mostly because the straps are not taught enough to give much support.

This "bra" has NOTHING to it! No support at all. If you have a very small chest this may work for.
