This bra is my new identity

I had reservations about buying a retro bra because even though I like the look, I thought that they might be uncomfortable, because normally I only wear nonunderwired bras and sports tops. This has been a super surprise. It’s so comfortable and looks so cool.

The silhouette that this bra gives is really cute and moderately retro. The bra looks so great that you don’t have to worry about it peeking from underneath your clothes

Love this bra!

One of my first retro lingerie purchases and I could not be more pleased with the quality of it! I've already purchased more and expect that as more cute sets come out I will 1000% be buying more!

Much better fit.

I had purchased the 1940s bras. I purchased the Victoria Berry Lace from the Treasure Trove. I went down a cup size. The combination of going down a cup size and horizontal seams made for a much better fit. The Liz Retro Bra fit much better than the 1940s bras that I had previously purchased. I have scoliosis and also probably in between sizes, so I don't know if someday I buy the updated pattern if that will make for a better fit. The Victoria Berry Lace has fit me the best so far.

Slightly underwhelmed

The bra is nice but I was rather disappointed in the bra due to the price paid...as my title says I was somewhat underwhelmed with the quality of the materials used.

Perfectly Shaped Bra

I love Liz Retro Bra for the shape it gives not only your bust but the whole torso. I look slimmer and my waist seems smaller. It is very comfortable to wear as it is only fabric and no wires, still the support it gives is astonishing. I have both colour versions - white and black- and would happily buy even more should there be more colours on offer.

Quality and comfort every time.

Having purchased a number of sets previously, the black "Liz" bra & suspender set has not disappointed and is the same excellent quality and comfort as my previous purchases.

The Most Comfortable Bra!

I am so impressed by this bra! I tried it thinking that I want to dip my toes into the vintage aesthetic and this bra is so comfy! Yet, it's very supportive, it doesn't move or feel too tight, I am very happy!

Liz Bravissimo!

Initially, I resisted the pull of the Liz range as compared to some of the more advanced WKD foundation options, its generous, super-soft stylings seemed rather like entry-level fare to me. But still, the competing idea of an affordable yet glamorous set that was versatile enough for everyday wear was tempting and persistent, so I decided to invest in it. To my delight, the bra fit lovely while still providing ample support and definition - a real confidence booster. The gorgeous, Art Deco-inspired cups coupled with their smoky, burlesque top section lend it that trademark WKD playfulness that is only fully apparent when worn. Paired with the matching panty girdle, Liz has become one of my top-tier lingerie choices for all occasions.

Like a soft boob hug that keeps everything comfortably in place.

I love it! I had to change size twice(apparently I've changed a lot since my last bra purchase!) and had no problems with the exchange at all. I was a bit worried that my 34F wouldn't work well with a softer bra, but it both looks and feels fantastic. I'm looking forward to try more of WKD bras.

British Made Quality With Class!

I'm a curvy girl who drives trains and has to wear a polo shirt for work. I wanted a nice looking bra which fitted smoothly beneath and gave good support. (I normally wear one of Katie's bullet bras, but in a mostly male environment and at work I didn't want that sort of attention!!!) This bra fits the bill, beautifully styled, high quality fabric, great workman ship, smooth lines and great support. An added bonus is that it is British made too. I'm coming back for more and the matching knickers!
