size up
(February 4, 2013)
"i got this in a small (5'5" 120lbs 32b) and it fits fine without a bra underneath. it is a little bit hard to get over my shoulders but once it's on, it'll stay on and it won't slip down, which is really nice. however, i probably wouldn't choose to wear this without a bra underneath because i would probably wear it under a sheer top and let's face it, if i wore just this bandeau i would look completely flat chested. this bandeau is super tight if i wear a bra underneath, and almost won't cover the entire bra. i would definitely have ordered a medium if i had known this, but the medium might have slipped a little."

SIZE, PRICE, and NO SLIPPING
(January 18, 2013)
"First of all, I would like to clear up on the sizes. I got an XS online, and it fit me well, however it didn't cover my whole bra. I went to the store and got a S, and it covered a tiny bit more. Therefore, if you are choosing between a size, size UP, because it will give you more coverage. For reference I am a 34A. And the S is pretty tight on me. So online it is 2 for 20, but at my store it is not. I asked them and they actually honored the price, so I got 2 for 20. Also, this bra doesn't have any padding, its just fabric. I wear my bra with it, and it doesn't slip."

"This is exactly what I was looking for! I got this to wear under low cut tops or tanks and it looks great. I like that the stylish lace shows through without showing cleavage. I feel comfortable in it and I am glad I purchased it. I got the black and feel like I will be able to wear it with many different color tops. I do wish it was a tad longer but other than that I am enjoying this purchase and plan to get another color."

"this bandeau is so cute! it doesnt slip on me either which is good im happy with this purchase!"
"There is really no scenario where this garment is useful or even looks good. It slides off and really doesn't make any part of my body look appealing. Thanks but no thanks."

Lovely but no..
(November 29, 2012)
"The lace and design is beautiful. Yet only if I were to do a photoshoot in it. It is not practical for every day wear. I am a 32B and chose a small because extra smalls seems to almost want to rip when pulling them over my broad swimmer shoulders. It went on with ease yet it felt loose. Enough to fall off! Except that it did not look loose.
It is a cheap price for cheap material. If you are looking for something along those lines, this is for you. Keep in mind it is very thin. It serves no purpose for the small chested."

Slides down on smaller girls.
(October 29, 2012)
"I'm a 32A. I purchased an XS. I guess I'm just not large enough to hold this bandeau up. It kept sliding down. It doesn't have a "no slide" grip-strip on the inside like quality bandeaus do."

Comfy and Cute
(September 20, 2012)
"I bought this in nude size XS, and it fits me perfectly. The lining is really soft, and the lace is adorable. Keep in mind that there is a lining, though, so the lace won't be see-through. I'll probably just take the lining out of the back of it, because I wanted sheer lace for the back."

no...
(September 14, 2012)
"I guess if you have a smaller chest then you're fine but I'm a 34C and this just was not long enough to cover everything. I tried it on for the day and it would slip all the way down every two minutes."
"After reading several reviews cautioning buyers to purchase this bandeau in a size up and then several other reviews cautioning buyers to size down, I finally decided that I was just going to purchase the size that would fit my 34B bust best, and that, according to most reviewers (and the size chart), was a medium. The bandeau came in the mail a few days ago and I was very pleased at its delicate yet sturdy appearance. I tried it on and saw that the bandeau fit my bust snugly, but became immediately aware that some slippage was occurring. I walked around the house for about thirty minutes while wearing the bandeau and observed that it frequently slid around and even fell down from time to time. I realized what the problem was: I hadn't taken my waist measurement into consideration when I purchased the product. My waist is very tiny (about 24 inches), so the bandeau sort of caves in at my waist rather than fills out. Therefore, I would tell the girls out there who are a 34B but who are more square in their waist area to stick with the medium size. The girls who are a 34B with a more petite hourglass shape, on the other hand, should probably size down to the small. That's what I did, anyway: I filled out the exchange form requesting a size small, and am now anxiously waiting for the package to arrive so that I can finally wear this rather fabulous little bandeau!"

Great fit
(September 1, 2012)
"I was going to just buy this online, but after reading so many iffy reviews on the sizing, I had to check it out for myself in-store. Particularly because I am a 34C, 5'9 145lbs, and I was worried that it was made for smaller chests. I was pleased to see that literally all of the sizes fit me, so once I tried on all four sizes, it was really just a matter of what I found most comfortable. I feel like the sizing differences are very slight. The XS even fit me, which I didn't expect, but it was just slightly uncomfortably tight, so I decided on buying an S, even though the M fit me probably the best, to leave room for stretching over time and also to make sure it stays on when I'm out and about. Though the lacy material in this bandeau seems to stay in place very nicely, even with the L, strapless things in general tend to start falling off as the day progresses, so if you are in between two different sizes and unsure which to get, I would recommend getting the smaller.
The only disappointing thing about this is that it's not as long as the picture shows. The one in the picture gives thorough coverage and extends a bit above and below the bust, but in real life it actually fits just the bust and does not extend further than that. But if you get a L, it's slightly longer and gives slightly more coverage.
Overall, I think it all depends on how you wear this. I wear a bra under this, which is what I intended to do in the first place. But if you plan on wearing this instead of a bra, I think it might be prone to sliding just because a bra underneath gives it some friction to hold it in place. This bandeau is perfect for me, and if you're looking for a pretty layering piece, then you should definitely get it, it looks so cute underneath tanks with low sleeves!
I got this in black and grey, and plan on ordering the pinkish floral and tan/black flowery patterns. I have to say, all of the colors for this particular product are fantastic, I want to buy them all!"

Love this bandeau
(August 29, 2012)
"I'm so excited this came in the mail today! I was a little skeptical about what size to get, (I'm usually a small in tops but reviewers pointed out that this runs small) but I stuck with my normal size. It's a little tight to get on, but once it on it stays in place and it's very comfortable and goes with so much. I got the gray one but I plan on getting a few other colors because I can definitely use more than one. Great buy!!"

Good layering piece!
(August 23, 2012)
"I bought this to spice up my normal strapless bras and to wear on top of them. I love doing just that. I am a 32B and I am somewhere in-between an XS and a S. There is a pretty big difference between the two. This piece is pretty, and it stands up to washing very well. I've had mine for at least a year and it is still in great condition. They only thing is that it slides down a good bit. Make sure to keep an eye out for it until you know it works."

I love it!!

"Super soft inside and looks so good under a plain white tank with low sleeves! Definite keeper!"
"I ordered a small in the nude and I love this! I wear it under everything. I ordered a S, although I am definitely an XS in tops... I thought it would be hard to get on and off so I got a S. It was snug at first but is definitely getting looser... with that being said I kind of wish I would have got an XS. I will probably hand wash it in warm water and lay flat to dry."

It's cute and I love it!
(August 8, 2012)
"This looks good under sheer tops. I love the design and it's definitely comfortable to wear unlike other lace materials that feel cheap and itchy sometimes. I'm 5'7", 115 lbs., and a 34B. I ordered the black and neutral multi in Medium and it fits me perfectly. I might not say the same for girls of larger cup sizes though. The coverage is "just enough" (in my opinion) for me and I feel like if you're any bigger, it might not cover you up due to its length."

(August 4, 2012)
"I have been looking for a nude lacey bandeau bra for the longest time, and this one is perfect. after reading the reviews that it's small, i got a large (i'm a 36B) and it fits really nicely! very comfortable, girly, and pretty :) not sure how it would work out on girls with larger busts, but it works well for me! definitely recommend!"

Pretty but Tiny!
(July 28, 2012)
"I'm 115lbs and a 34A and ordered a small but its still tiny! It barely covers over my bra. I really thought it would be longer. But it's adequate enough and I can't really find another black lace bandeau so I'll keep it."

Ok, but not great.
(July 25, 2012)
"I really wanted to love these, but it turns out I only kind of like them... I ordered two, one in yellow and one in blue. I probably would have liked them more if I would have ordered one size larger. I typically wear a size small in tops, but these appear to run kind of small/tight. I'm able to wear them without a bra, but would prefer if I could fit a strapless bra underneath."

Soft and Comfortable :)
(July 11, 2012)
"I was worried about sizing when i read the other reviews. I am a 34B/36B bra and got the medium size which fits just right. I recommend diligently looking at the size chart.
The fabric is soft and comfortable, and looks great under a long tank! :)"
