Possible Solution to the Pinching, Binding Blues
Big beautiful women take note, there is a comfortable bra out there or , at least, one considerably more comfortable than a traditional bra. But, alas, all is not golden, there are some negatives but I will let you be the judge of rather or not these few negatives out weigh the positives.
First, the pros. The Avenue Body Seamless Shaping Tank and the Shaping Crop Top Bra are up to 4 times less expensive than other brands (i.e. Sassybax). Other positives include the fact that they are indeed much more comfortable than traditional bras and they feel light and cool against your skin. Since there are no seams nothing pinches either or digs into your skin. They also come in the colors black, white or biege.
Now for the cons. Avenue claims that thier shapewear slims the midriff and waist and defines the bust but I did not find that to be true. In fact, the crop top bra flattened my bust so much that it made my stomach actually look bigger. The tank may have slimmed my waist a tad but unless you only have a small amount of flab to trim I wouldn't put much store into that particular claim. And, although, the tank , which you step into like a bathing suit, was easy enough to get into the crop top bra ,which goes on over the head, was very difficult to get on. Evenso, the fact that they are so much cheaper than competeing brands and so much more comfortable than traditional bras may void some, if not all, of these negatives. I know it did for me.

These bras wouldn't work well for me. I guess I'm just attached to the traditional kind with front or back opening. A bra, that I have to step into or pull over my head, would be difficult for me. I do like the idea of a seamless bra. If this bra is comfortable for you, then it's a great buy!
