Aerie Real Happy Strapless Push Up Bra

Overall I love the material and the way it feels. After wearing for a long period of time I found it rubbed on the sides of my body under my arms.

Very supportive. Purchased for a strapless dress and everything stayed in place! #AEReviewSweepsEntry

Went with a smaller band with it being a strapless bra and it fits greats, I do recommend going up a cup if you’re on the bigger size since they aren’t full coverage cups

This strapless bra is very supportive for someone with bigger boobs which is great because it is hard to find great bras with support

Ok to start off, I have saggy deflated boobs. It’s extremely difficult to find a bra that fits normally and makes my boobs look normal. With sagging comes extra skin which just flops and folds and wrinkles. If I don’t wear a bra that comes up high enough in the middle to separate, then they just blob together. And full coverage bras cause too much cup gapping. The biggest issue is most bras...even push ups and “lifts”...do not lift enough. which causes me to have to tighten the shoulder straps all the way. It’s very painful to have them digging in so tightly to have my boobs supported normally AND still end up looking horrible. After trying on like 15 bras in store, this was the only one that didn’t make me want to cry. The band is way to tight, it’s very uncomfortable, underwire digs in like a mofo....but my boobs are actually lifted, stay in place, and look normal. There’s no wrinkling of my skin, and I can actually wear this with my dresses and tanks. Most of the time I’m in a lounge style bra (Hanes smooth comfort is good) . This is my bra for when I’m going out of the house or wearing something other than a t shirt. I cannot wear it all day but my self esteem is much better when I have it on .

I am usually a 32C for most of the aerie bars but for this particular style you have to size up to 32D. I definitely feel a little bit tighter underneath my chest as the bar need some sort of grip to grab onto but overall it is still comfortable to wear. What I really like about this bar is that it has the support but doesn’t seem to “cut” into your girls like other strapless bar does. Overall, really well made strapless bar. Thumbs up aerie!

I buy all my bras from Aerie, and have for a while. I'm a 30B in all of their bras, and I had purchased a strapless bra also called "AERIE REAL HAPPY STRAPLESS PUSH UP BRA" around Sept last year, also a 30B, so of course I purchased that size for this bra. It runs SO SMALL. I'm always on the tightest hooks for my bras, but for this one I could barely hook it on the very last one and even then it was a little suffocating. I'll be returning and ordering two other different sizes to try out...hopefully one of those two will fit because I need a nude strapless bra! #AEReviewSweepsEntry

Ordered my normal size in aerie bras 32B and it was insanely tight. I held it up to my other aerie bras and its a solid 2 inches shorter than the rest. The bra itself though is good, just definitely go up in the band size. I had to order a bra extender to make it work because I didnt want to go through the hassle of a return.

Runs small around the band. Couldn't even buckle it on, fit me more like a 36 or even 34C instead of a 38C. This is for sure my size because this is what I buy at Torrid & Target. Tight under the cups as well. Will continue the hunt for a comfortable strapless nude bra. I know as a thick girl this is a constant issue with finding bras. What I did like is the top of the cup was rounded and not pointed where the strap connects like some bras, so it's not as visible under your tops.

Ordered my regular size which is normally a great fit with Victoria's Secret. The band is way too tight. I can barely breathe properly and there's back spillage. The cups are also too small. There's spillage there too. With the straps attached, the bra does somewhat okay. As a strapless, even though the band is tight, the bra still manages to slip in odd ways and result in spillage.

#AEReviewSweepsEntry The band was as sized but the cups were way too big, which was weird since I have a bunch of other bras from here that fit me perfectly, same size. Maybe asue of the lack of straps made the cups fit weird.

Now, I knew this might not work when I ordered it because I have implants and a small ribcage, but the measurements were right so I tried it even though my expectations were low. The cups barely came above my nipples and the support was non existent. I immediately knew it would not work for me. Someone with natural breasts may have better luck. I don't fault the bra, but it was not made for larger, rounder breasts.

Both the band and the cup seem to run small. I'm usually a 34B but returning and trying the 36B instead.

I find that Aerie strapless bras typically feel tighter to ensure that they stay on. but after going up a size, the wires still feel too uncomfortably tight while there is some gaping in my cups without the straps on. I needed to buy this for a bridesmaid dress next month so I am hoping this would work and I'll tough out the discomfort.

I love the color, I love the material but it run small

I ordered my regular bra size, and it hardly fit at all and was super uncomfortable. However it was a good strapless bra overall and had good support and so I am going to try getting a 34DD instead and see if it’s better size wise. #AEReviewSweepsEntry

I liked this bra at first, but after a couple months of light wear and light washing (machine washing in a laundry bag and hang drying/laying flat), the edge of one of the cups is curving outwards, making the bra more visible from under most shirts. The other cup is still fine, so I must have gotten one that was poorly sewn. In terms of the fit, I think it's pretty true to size. I got a 32B and I could've gone one cup size down (I'm usually 30B/32A). The 32 band is about the same length as another Aerie strapless bra I have with a 30 band, but I would still say to stick with your usual size. I wish this was a bit sturdier, but it's not bad.

This bra is alright. Nothing special. The band is extremely tight though. I know strapless bras are usually tighter, but it is quite a bit smaller than my other regular aerie bras in the same size. It stays up though. Does the job. It's not uncomfortable, but definitely doesn't compare to the comfort of the sunny bras. I suggest maybe trying your sister size for this one (up a band size, down a cup size, eg. mine would be 34D)

This bra is not the best strapless bra I’ve ever had. It fits but doesn’t stay up well.

I wear a 32A in victoria secret pink bras they fit me perfect and love them. Was going to try an aerie bra since was a little cheaper for a strapless. Was way to small cups barley covered me and the band was tight, but mostly the cups were way to small. Going to try and order a 34A now and hopefully that fits

I have bought Aerie bras since I probably started wearing bras, and have worn the same size for years! I ordered my normal size and it fit, but was stretched just to clasp, which made the skin around that area look lumpy (think muffin top but for your under arm area) The band on these are waaaaay tighter than usual (and I’ve recently lost some weight so it doesn’t make sense). Loved the bra in total but had to return because it was just too tight. Would’ve ordered a bigger size but it’s sold out :/

I think this bra was pretty average. It’s a push up but it didn’t do much, but the clear straps are nice.

Read lots of reviews before purchasing this bra. Lots of them said to size up! I'm always a 32DD in aerie and the 32DDD was HUGE! Whoopsie! So yeah, order your usual aerie size.

It’s pretty and the texture is nice, BUT it runs way too small. I have other aerie strapless same fit and size, but this one was missing an inch. Had to return it.

I purchased my usual size 34D. And the band was super small. I will be returning for a 36D.

This bra really isn’t supportive. On the tightest loop, it still falls even though it digs into my skin. I’m not satisfied with this purchase.

I always get 34C but this fit way too small. I ordered online, and I don't live near an aerie so I couldn't try on to see what would fit better :( #AEReviewSweepsEntry

I really like the detailing on the bottom of this bra, it is a lot more attractive than the last strapless I owned. However, I wish I knew that it ran small before I ordered it. It was tighter in the band than other bras I’ve bought in the same size (30D), I thought that after wearing it for awhile it would stretch out and loosen a bit, but it’s been seven months and while it’s wearable, I find myself ready to rip it off at the end of the day. The cups are also too small, even though I’m not “full” up top I still spill out of this bra quite a bit. I’d size up or look elsewhere.

Run small , wouldn’t be comfortable wearing it all day , sending it back .
