Maidenformwomens Low Back Bra Converter Bra Extender

This bra converter works very well. I’ve worn it multiple time prior to leaving this review. It’s easy to use and surprisingly supportive

SIZE BRA: 44DDD.SIZE CLOTHES: 22/3xBODY TYPE: Hourglass with a tummy.INTENDED PURPOSE: I got a large tattoo right at my bra line and I can’t really have any pressure on it while it heals for a few weeks (it would also be painful).COMPATIBILITY WITH MY BRA: I wear lightly lined, 360 back-smoothing t-shirt bras from Torrid that have 5 rows of snaps (I will wear these bras as long as they make them). Since this converter has 3 snaps that connect to your bra, I knew 2 snaps on my bra would not be connected to the converter. I attached the converter to the top 3 snaps on my bra. This has resulted in 2 tiny, “unsnapped” pieces of bra. (You could attach the 3 snaps to the middle of the 5 also, but I thought this might result in more bumps). If your shirt is tight, you would see the inspapped part. Any shirt that isn’t skintight though, they are pretty well hidden. I am considering getting a second band to take care of the remaining 2 snaps, but it isn’t bothering me too much, and I am usually someone who likes “clean lines” for her curves. It’s winter now as I write this, so it’s easier to hide with sweaters as opposed to thin t-shirts.SUPPORT: My bras give me an excellent amount of support already and are very comfortable, and my tata theme song is “swing low, sweet chariot,” -this should give you a good idea of what I’m working with-no natural perkiness. I will say the band going lower on my back due to the converter might lower my tatas about an 1/8th of an inch -no one else will likely notice this, but you might if you are similar to me in size/bra type.I should add that if you have a low back dress and need a sexy/perky tata solution, a good push-up bra would likely solve the slight lack-of-support problem.COMFORT: I was surprised that the band was comfortable in between my love handles (yes, I’m saying it. It’s a PLUS SIZE bra converter). I thought it would feel tight around, but I am fine (I’m also not a delicate flower). Someone 46 bra line or larger may be slightly uncomfortable but with some concentration, it would not be impossible to fit around you. In addition, the band in the front tends to slide up under my bra near the underwire anyway, which is fine with me because then I don’t have an indentation of an elastic band in the middle of my stomach (another concern I had).CONCLUSION: I know it’s a lot to write for a relatively cheap bra solution, but I will recommend it for someone with a similar bust size or back issue. I am now excited to have the option of wearing sexy low-back shirts and dresses -types of clothing that have not been available to me before because I NEED A BRA! I just think this thing is great :)

Love it. Material could be better, doesn’t have a soft feel on the skin as I hoped but over all great idea. Good support for the lifting and stabilizing the bra. Back straps stay low and comfortable #IFYKYK.

Get it, as a plus size apple shaped, 5'4", 53" bust, 42H cup, 44"waist and a 52" hip. I can't recommend this enough. I have tried the Lane Bryant Multi Way Boosted Strapless bra not backless or frontless, Misses Kisses frontless backless strapless Bra (even had two consultations with customer service.),its expensive and not for everyone. I tried that sticky hand backless strapless bra with the shoelace in the front that only gives you cleavage but no support definitely not frontless. This is the better/affordable option for a backless look, I did buy a cheaper version of this product and it failed miserably. I included a picture comparing the cheap knock off option and the Maidenform one.

I find it difficult with the arthritis to do up my bras at the back. This is a brilliant solution and works very well as it does up at the front. I was worried that the elastic would not be wide enough to support my D cup bosom but it seems to support very well, even allowing me to slightly tighten the shoulder straps which is an advantage. I have recommended them to my sister and would to anyone who finds back fastenings difficult.... you need this width of elastic though, don’t go for the narrower ones if you are over an a cup size.
