Wacoal Petite lace contour underwire bra, $45, freshpair.com
The people at freshpair.com kindly sent me a bra to review from experts in petitely proportioned lingerie,Wacoal Petite.
What I was hoping for was a faultless T-shirt bra — a no-fuss style that you want to throw on day after day because it’s so comfortable and gives you a good, natural looking shape. I wasn’t looking for a dramatic boost, or overt sexiness… just a great lingerie drawer staple.

| Looks | This is a simple, everyday bra that looks neat and stylish. Details like the thin straps and the sheer side wings with scalloped lace trim, give the 'everyday' a sophisticated twist. | 5/5 |
| Fit | I tested a 32AA cup size. The fit is great: cup size and band width feel comfortable and the straps can be adjusted to fit perfectly. There is no gaping, no digging in and no ride up. | 5/5 |
| Comfort | The cotton cup lining feels cool and comfortable, and the band and underwire provide a secure, supportive fit, without leaving red impressions. | 5/5 |
| Uplift | The contour cups provide a smooth, streamlined and gently curvy shape. There is no uplift as such, just an accentuation of my natural shape. | 4/5 |
| VERDICT | Overall a really great, everyday bra, offering a smooth look underneath clothing, as well as excellent comfort. | 19/20 |
