Customers say
Customers say this bra is soft, comfortable, and features a convenient front clasp that's easy to use. Many appreciate the racerback design and effective minimizing effect that provides good support and shaping. However, sizing is a frequent concern—the bra consistently runs small in both band and cup, with many customers needing to size up. Some note the front clasp can be fragile and break with regular wear. A few mention discomfort from sharp underwire seams or tightness in the band. Overall, most customers who find the right size praise the fit, fabric quality, and everyday wearability.

    Picture is deceiving

    I was surprised to receive this bra and find out that the cups are unlined since the picture is quite different than the actual item. I don’t buy unlined bras due to asymmetry following breast surgery, so I was disappointed. The band is quite snug as well.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback, Vicki. We’re sorry this style wasn’t what you expected. We always recommend reviewing the product description for details about cup lining and fit, as images may not always fully convey these features.

    Love it

    This is my first time trying a front close bra. I typically order the Bare Absolute Minimizer with the back closure. I ordered my normal size (38H) and it fits great. It is very comfortable to me after the first wash. I plan to order more. I do have issues with the underwire popping out of the fabric eventually on the back closure bras, so I am hoping this bra does not have the same issue.

    I loved them at first

    After getting the sizing right. I loved these bras. However after having them for a while, I have the same complaint many others do. The wires pop through. The first was within the window and customer service replaced it, however it has now happened to another. I do machine wash my bras. However I always have and my Vanity Fair bras with wires have held up just fine. Therefore I think it is a design flaw.

    The Absolute Minimizer Front-Close Bra

    For large breasted, older women, the front close is hard to see and manipulate. When I finally got it on, it didn't provide as much lift as I hoped it would.
