Disappointed, M&S have obviously had a rethink & decided us big busted ladies only want wired bras. I don’t. As there was no other choice for my size, I ordered the listed bra in the size I have ordered for the past 10 plus years. It came & the fit was hopeless. The price too was over double the non wired (admittedly- ugly) ones I usually buy. Not sure where I’ll be buying my bras from now but it won’t be M&S and I’m sure I won’t be the only plus size lady in this position.

I purchased this bra brand a couple years ago and was very impressed with the fit. I usually buy new bras every year, and time was past due to purchase new ones. I’ve had so much trouble getting the fit right for this bra. I measured myself multiple times and even had someone else measure me to double-check my measurements. 38 band was too tight, so I bought a 40, which fit better. However, every 40 band bra I ordered had cups with too much room in them. I didn’t want to keep pulling the straps tighter to close the gap because they would just dig into my shoulders. I now have 3 bras just sitting in the drawer because I just don’t know what to do, keep them and tighten the straps or just keep purchasing and returning them until I find the right fit. I’m so disappointed…

It’s not Elomi’s. Its Macys fault. They entered the wrong upc for the us size and every time I ordered I got the uk size _ which is not the sameTried over and over to explain. Even went into a store. If Macys had the correct upc in their system and had sent me the size I ordered it would have been a five star reviewAnd I am usually so happy

Great bra, very supportive with very little bounce as it fully covers the whole boob. This bra pushes them apart more than other bras; for me this is a bonus as it means less boob sweat! It also gives a great shape under standard office work type clothing, and completely eliminates cleavage, which I like for my lower cut clothes as well. It's a great bra to have as it can really change the look of an outfit due to its shape. If you want cleavage probably not the bra the for you! The only *issue* I have is that detailing on the neckline can be visible under paler or thinner material that I would not have considered see through until I wore this bra (even in the blush colour, in fact somehow it seems less obvious in the navy bra). I would still recommend as a great ... MoreGreat bra, very supportive with very little bounce as it fully covers the whole boob.

While I love these bras, this time, they came with a highly perfumed small. I washed them. Still there. Washed them in white vinegar. Still there. Washed them again. Still there. It's fainter, but...
I love this bra! It is so very comfortable and has great coverage without being too 'full'. Excellent support thanks to the wide straps and 3 hooks. It gives me a very natural shape so it's great to wear with knits. This is my second purchase (time to update ther prvious one which has been well worn!)
I've bought 2 of these bras since I first tried it in my fitting and it's PERFECT for me! Regarding the fit, he cup runs in a slightly bigger size but the band is accurate and has a secure underwire that doesn't dig into the ribs and has a great natural shape under clothes. the wire reaches under the arms to achieve a full-figure breast the doesn't push forward which I love the look of! It's my everyday bra that fits all occasions - working an active job (I work in a bakery), casual wear, and for intimate occasions too, having a bra that is both this comfortable and this gorgeous is a rare find!!! It provides great support for the back too. Absolutely recommend for those with larger cup sizes!
Since my first wearing of this bra the shoulder straps have been a problem because the elastic rolls. Initially I used to get my partner to straighten them after putting the bra on. After about a year of irregular use (mainly for special occasions) they are permanently rolled and, despite straightening them, they immediately roll again. When I wear the bra this forms a visible ridge across my shoulders. This is extremely unfortunate because it is the best fitting bra I have ever owned. If it wasn't for this problem I would buy this bra to the exclusion of all others.
When my daughter first tried on this bra, she said it felt comfortable. We rejoiced as we thought we had finally found a bra that fit correctly and was comfortable. Alas, the next day when she went to put it on (we bought two of the same brand, same color - which was the only color available in her size) the left strap broke immediately. So we made plans to return it. She tried on the other bra and it felt ok for the first few hours then it became uncomfortable as something began to "dig" into her skin at her rib cage area. Now we are back at square one trying to find a suitable bra that fits, is comfortable and is of good quality. We would like to return these bras as she has been unable to wear one due to the broken strap and the other one already has the ... MoreWhen my daughter first tried on this bra, she said it felt comfortable.

I have been purchasing the Elomi Cate bras for many years but suddenly they are very poor. This one I have only worn and washed 7 times, both of the bones have broken through the stitching. There is nothing you can do as the bones are too strong to be able to push back in and sew back in place. Considering the price I think it’s about time I looked for a new brand.
