Ultimate Body - Milano

After my Intimo disappointment, I took myself to Bras N Things to see what they carried in my (new) size. My T-shirt bra has been woefully inadequate for QUITE some time now, so I was pleased with this one. Its virtually a strapless, billed as 5-way convertible: Normal straps. Racer back straps. Halter strap. Detachable straps. Low back with Halter strap. So it does everything BUT strapless.
I purchased in the nude colour.

Support & Comfort
- 5 / 5
Doesn't dig in, wear all day without hassle.

Overall Look - 4.5 / 5
Great look, all "out in front" not "east west" which is a preference of mine. Lost half a point because as the day goes there is slight movement toward the centre, but not quite a double-boob, so thumbs up.

Wearability
- 5 / 5
I have continuously worn this one since I wore it, alternating only with the one other I bought that day.

Price
- $39.99   VERY affordable.  +++

Size Range
- 10-16 B-E

Colour Range -
Black, white, latte and seasonal colours. The sales girl also helpfully told me they sell them occassionally as twin packs in colours. On the net currently you can get a twin of Amethyst & Slate for only $70

Other Accessories
-
Part of Ultimate Body, its mostly smooth microfibre style shapewear and seamless. Mix n match :)

Ultimate Body "Smooth Operator" Strapless Bra


Aside from singing "Smooth Operator" every time I put this bra on, I also always have an internal happy thought at the discovery of this bra.
I now wear halter neck tops, boob tubes and strappy tops where once I didn't. It has opened a new clothing avenue.
The molded cups support and cup without enveloping your boobs to the point which eliminates the need for a strapless anyway.
The adhesive plastic film on the inside is quite robust, making it almost a struggle to get on! But well and truly support when the time comes.
It is convertible accommodating halter, crossed back, standard and STRAPLESS.
I find this bra so amazing that I wear it strapless even when the need does not call, like for a halter top.
It can be worn all day without losing it's grip - but I still find the occasional unattractive "bra hoik" is required to realign everything.
If they ever stop making this bra and the "Anna" I will be lost at sea without a paddle. It is my lifesaver - part two.

Down side; sadly like "Anna" the "Smooth Operator" comes in a exceedingly limited colour range, skin and black - but as a utilitarian bra these are really they only requirements.

Price: $39.95
Stockists: Ultimate Body is available exclusively through Bras N Things, for stores visit the website or BNT are available to buy online.
Size range: 10B to 16E
