A Reliable “Grown-Up” Bra That Delivers Comfort and Support
Playtex has been my go-to brand for years, and this bra reminds me exactly why. I like to think of it as the “grown-up” bra—dependable, supportive, and built to last. Ever since I was a little girl, I can remember my mother and grandmother wearing Playtex for special occasions, and now it’s my turn to carry on the tradition.The fit is spot on, providing full coverage and support without feeling restrictive. The straps stay in place, the cups hold everything securely, and the band doesn’t dig in. It’s comfortable enough for all-day wear, yet still has a polished look that works well under dressier outfits.Playtex has a way of combining practicality with timeless style, and this bra is proof. If you want a bra that offers comfort, shape, and reliable support, this is one you can trust.

Comfortable fit on larger sizes
I bought this a while ago and gave it plenty of wear before reviewing. I'd definitely say the bra has been great! The wide, cushioned straps are comfortable and don't leave shoulder gouges (if you know, you know) while the full cuts prevent gaping at the underarms. I love that I don't have to worry about spilling over top or having underboob peeking out on the bottom. The wide band gives a LOT of support, which is really important to me, and four clasps keep it in place. The fit for me was spot on and I have purchased more in other colors. Speaking of the color, it's so pretty! The bra is also very durable, even for active days. The fabric and stitching are sturdy and forgiving.

me and my girls
I love the fit I didn't think it would fit right because I feel like stuff like this you should go into the store and buy but no I gave my size and I had to order more because I love the fit this is just perfect for me and the hold is very sturdy the quality I love the material the color I just bought one of each

Mixed bag
I bought a 36C. The band is short for the size. It's really tight. The cups do have a good lift to them, but they also give you a bit of a torpedo boob, because they're fairly pointed. I bought the blush pink one. I would suggest getting a band size larger if you don't want to feel like you have a boa constrictor on. The quality seems good. Another plus for me is that it isn't padded at all. The sides are fairly tall so it helps with side boob. The straps are pretty comfortable since they're wide and have a bit of cushion to them.

Comfort, support, and value
I have worn this exact style number bra for years, without a single regret or complaint. The fabric quality is soft and holds up to wear and laundering better than much more expensive bras I have tried. The straps are slightly padded and comfortable, so I do t have the dreaded shoulder marks and irritation from the straps that other bras have caused. I’m a big busted woman, and this Playtex bra gives me the support I desire, and the shape/silhouette, without uncomfortable underwires. It holds my bosoms up in a natural position that is comfortable and looks nice under my clothing. The bra is sturdy without being rigid or binding. It launders well, and lasts! And it comes in several colors. If you’re a full-figured gal whoLikes comfort and support without the underwire or rigid construction found in other bras, I’d recommend trying this style of Playtex bra. It’s my go-to favorite style, and has been for years!

A Glitch in the Bra Matrix Try It On As Soon as It Arrives—
As background for this riveting review I wish I didn’t need to write, I’ve purchased this same brand, type, and size of bra several times over the years so I expected a similar positive experience with this one. Unfortunately, from the first time I put on this bra, it’s been miserable. The band is so stiff and tight that it’s leaving deep marks, and it hurts like I imagine the steel corset my great grandmother wore did. She had my sympathy then and she does even more now. At first, I thought this bra just felt a little stiff because it was new so I kept wearing it—and it kept feeling like the band was two or three or maybe 500 sizes too small. I put it on the loosest hooks; it still hurt. I checked the tag; it was the size I ordered and matched my other seemingly identical bras. You now may be thinking, understandably, that I’d gained weight since I bought the others but in fact I’ve lost weight since then. I ordered the same size this time as the others before because I knew I could use different hooks and the cup part never varies for me. The cup part does fit fine but is also extremely stiff unlike the others. I kept thinking it would stretch out a little or that maybe I HAD suddenly regained weight despite the scale and my other clothes negating that. Finally, I put it next to my other bras of the same type and the band of this one is noticeably smaller. It also seems not to stretch at all except for the straps. In fairness, the bands on those older versions may have stretched out and they ARE stretchier than this one is. However, I never would have bought another of that same type, brand, and size if I’d had this same experience with them. I gave in yesterday and ordered two new bras of different types that I’ve had before. If the same thing happens with them, I’ll come back here and say so but I don’t think it will. This is strange. I’m not sending it back because that seems gross even though it’s washed and it still looks great (black bras never look dingy!). I just can’t do that. I felt like resurrecting the 60’s trend of bra burning and moving forward in pain-free relief, but because I appreciate the reviews others write, I decided to share my experience so you can be aware and try yours on once you receive it. It was apparent then that something was wrong but I thought I was imagining it and that it would turn out ok. Ah, the delusions of a woman with a nice, new bra and no time or desire to worry about it. :) This probably just is some weird glitch with mine but FYI just in case. Would I order this same kind again sometime? Yes, because it’s been fine all the other times. For now, though, I’ve got some new bras to try on later today once they arrive! :) Take care!
