Always a comfortable choice
I’m a 22d and the sides come up high enough to contain the ’overhang’ that can occur at the back.The wide straps mean no slipping or rolling up.Have been purchasing this bra for so so many years, won’t look at another style.I clip mine up put in a laundry bag and into the wash (front loader) with no problems.They last very well, I have at least 6 on the go plus some older ones at the back of the draw for ’at home’ use. Every two or three years I purchase a couple new, usually when on special.For the first time ever I have two that are showing signs of the elastic under the arm perishing and ’sticky’, they would be over 7 years old, this has never happened with these bras before.Occasionally I will have an underwire come loose (one in the last three ...

Charlotte Underwire Bra
This underwire bra is usually comfortable, washes well & durable. I have purchased these on many occasions.Unfortunately on this occasion the size I ordered did not fit & I was advised by a phone consultant that I couldn’t exchange it as there was no stock available in store.I was advised to return the bra for credit & then reorder at the higher price. Since I bought several of these in the Black Friday sale I was not impressed.... Show more

Fayreform Charlotte Underwire Bra White
This is a lovely bra. It seems highly rated. Measured and purchased this and the quality is lovely. It looks comfortable but I’m still trying to find the right size. I’ve measured myself and been measured and the size I measure doesn’t fit. I should have returned but haven’t been able to.It’s only the sizes I have an issue with. It’s lovely looking, and feels like good quality.... Show more

Fayreform not the same these days
Very disappointed in bra as the back was far too small and I couldn't hook it up. It was more for a smaller size than mine. Will be returning it to Myers as informed by a sales person there. Fayreform used to be such a good brand and previously didn't have any trouble at all.... Show more

Great quality
I have been wearing the Fayreform brand for many years due to the good quality. I have found it increasing difficult to find larger sizes through dept. stores, even online.Over some years I purchased from a US site but could not get Fayreform. Then I came cross CURVY and all that changed.I have since purchased 4 x "Fayreform" Charlotte in size 22G in three different colours with ease. Also another Fayreform Bra in the colour champagne without the underwire and 2 of the Glamorise brand with no underwire. I purchased a total of 7 bras in October 2021from CURVY.I like to not wear bras with the underwire when relaxing at home.I am very happy with the ease of purchase, price and colour range..The delivery was very swift, so happy all around. I would definitely ... MoreI have been wearing the Fayreform brand for many years due to the good quality.

Just about the only affordable bra in Australia for a plus-size G cup that works
Major selling points: It's a sub-$40 (when on sale) bra available in a size 20-something G cup. That actually works as a bra, as opposed to just looking like a bra. For more than 3 weeks. In fact, worn a couple times a week, it's likely to last for a year or more.Shortcomings: Quality of underwire, and fabric/seaming making it unsuitable for wearing under knits under which its seaming and sewn-in pattern fabric are visible, and boring "functional" rather than "decorative" colours.The underwire is likely to break somewhere around the 12-18 month point and leave you being stabbed in the chest at your desk at work (or worse, whilst pedaling your pushbike home), but by then you've gotten good wear out of it and can replace it at the next sale.I wish they could do ...

As it is, I've resigned myself to never wearing a t-shirt without a shirt, jumper or cardi on top.I had a navy blue one some years ago. I've seen but missed out in my size on other colours in years past (I think I remember purple, burgundy, and dark green). I'd like more colours, just because they're non-boring.... Show more

Not as good as they used to be.
I bought this online, hoping that Fayreform have listened to my previous feedback over the past few years! These bras used to have lovely wide padded straps. The picture is deceiving. I have bras from years ago with double the current width of strap and it’s not related to the size. I have brand new 20E that are too small from years ago with double the width of this 24F I just bought. These thinner straps curl up on themselves making them extremely painful to wear all day. They feel like they are damaging to the shoulder area if you have a large heavy bust. I will be returning them. Overall I also feel the quality of fabric and elastic seems cheaper. Very disappointed!!... Show more

Pink and Sexy
Very comfortable well fitted bra easy to wash . The high quality of this bra is a five star rating. This bra deserves every one the stars . The shoulder straps are so comfortable for the support of the big busted ladies . You don’t feel the weight of your bust digging a canyon into your shoulders. Which a lot of other bras do because they want that delicate detail of sexiness so they compromise on comfort and support.... Show more

Sizing wrong.
My experience with Curvy was top notch, five stars to the company.As for the Charlotte Fayerform bra I was so disappointed, I have been wearing these bras for twenty plus years, so you can imagine my surprise when the new one didn’t fit. The bras was a cup size bigger than I am currently wearing and was so much smalller. At first I thought it had been marked wrong but as I had two new bras both to small I can only assume that Fayerform are not true sizes anymore. Vicki.... Show more
