The Illumination was my favorite bra. It has the best support for my 38Ds (the bras are true to size, too). I ended up buying 2 of each color. I like to wear the crisscross option as it gives the girls a nice boost and also gives a trim appearance to my torso. Less than 2 years later, the support is still there... BUT, the material around the front of the cup where the satin trim is, is rolling outwards so it shows through my shirts, especially white shirts. Very unflattering, and I cant fix it. I always used the gentle cycle to wash them and hung them to dry, but maybe hand washing them is the way to go. Who has time for that though. Maybe I'll try a style with a different material. Its a shame because I do like these bras a lot. Would I recommend the Illumination? Yes, but with a warning about the rolling.

Worth every penny! Never had a better fit. I can go back to wearing fitted tops and tank tops being confident nothing will slip out of place and add shape again to an aging body. I can actually say it's comfortable. No frills or lace to irritate my skinjust amazing soft comfort. I have rounded shoulders so straps have always been an issue of never staying up. These have some kind of grip without binding. I can actually look forward to going out in public again with confidence. As with all great products they usually change over the years. These have only become better much to my surprise. Thank you for a great no nonsense product. Keeping it lace free and with function and comfort first and foremost!

Much smaller than the size chart indicated that I should order. I had to return. I liked the style, the design and full coverage was styled to be exactly as indicated, but it was much smaller around that suggested. I should probably have have ordered two sizes; there is no give in the fabric. I ordered the 36 D as suggested.

I started wearing this bra when I had shoulder surgery. When I discovered it I realized it was the most comfortable bra I had ever worn and it still is 8 years later. I've tried others and this is hands down both comfortable and flattering. I'm no changing so keep making it. I'd like more colors to choose from too.

I love these bras, I have them in every color. They fit wonderfully, I can not wear back closure bras so PLEASE PLEASE do not discontinue them. In fact I would buy different colors.. in the past you have made different colors like Red and a very pretty blue (which I had to retire) so I need them again! So please please more colors

Love these bras. I had shoulder surgery and these worked perfectly, no twisting, turning or reaching in the back to hook a bra. These are my Forever bras. The fit is great and no more struggling to Put your bra on.

I hurt my shoulder about 4 years ago and ordered some of these. I have thoroughly enjoyed wearing them and just ordered some new ones. Very happy you still have the very same ones.

perfect fit, comfort beyond compare. easier to wear, put on for us older folks....love the feel, fabric and fit. I'm small, 5'3 and 102 pounds so getting a bra 34C that fits is a rarity....i know...but the other sizes don't fit my body...this one fits like it was custom made. Love it!

The material this bra was made of is superior. The bra was even better than the description on the website. The fabric is perfect; soft and giving.

I absolutely love this Illumination Front Close Bra. It is a perfect fit for me and very comfortable. I injured my shoulder and needed a front close bra. It washes up well in my washing machine and I have had no problems with the front clasp. The clasp is plastic but wears like iron. This is the only bra I wear now. I hope Vanity Fair never discontinues this bra! I love it!

My husband bought this bra for me last year when I was looking for something more comfortable to wear at work and WOW, is it ever! I recently bought 2 more in a different color because the cup design and front closure are sexy enough for date nights.

It is not easy to find these bras in the stores. I was happy to be able to order online, especially for the price! Now I can throw out many old, well used bras. The bras support is amazing for my back. My back pain has lessen from the way the bra fits. Thank you for solving my problem to locate these particular type of bra.

This bra is very comfortable and I like it but I prefer a bra without the padding. The fabric is soft, and it seems to be well-made. It would be perfect for me if it didn't have the padding.

Bought in a store on a whim, turned out to fit better than others I'd used in the past 20 years. Will continue to buy if they continue to make them.
