True & Co Bra Review

This bra review is of the True & Co True Body Lift Triangle Adjustable Strap Bra. It's a full-coverage unlined soft-cup bra with removable pads, wide adjustable straps, and a generous band.

I bought the size Small, which corresponds to a 34B or 32C. It's a good fit, and I'm glad I didn't go with the Medium. If you are between sizes in either band or cup (or both), then based on my experience, I'd recommend ordering the smaller corresponding size in True & Co.

The material is 75% nylon and 25% spandex. It's lightweight and thin, making the removable pads necessary if you want nipple coverage. The pads are not visible through the fabric.

This bra is very comfortable, and it does manage to be supportive even with the lack of underwires and not much structure in the cups. There are seams that go from underneath each cup to under the arms, where they connect with the seams that come down from the straps.

It also has support from the band, which I would describe as longline-style. It's longer than some other bands in bras like this and comes down over my whole ribcage, but I'd rather have it be too long than too short. Fortunately, it doesn't roll or fold up and has a nice secure fit. Taller women will appreciate the length.

The sides of the Body bra are relatively high, giving it the capacity to smooth side bulges and gently pull the breasts towards the center. But it will only do this if you tighten the straps enough, which I haven't done because I prefer a looser fit. Still, you do get coverage from the sides even if you wear the straps loose, and there won't be any side-boob going on in this bra.

With more coverage, you gain certain things: a more flattering, smoother look and a feeling of security. You also lose a little bit of freedom and have less ventilation in hot weather. So this may not be your favorite bra to wear outside in 90-degree heat, but it's perfect to go underneath a thin top or dress at work or for an evening out. And the comfort level is a definite five stars. You can put this on and not think about it all day.
