This bra is not suitable for tall people. I wish the straps were longer or at least adjustable in some way. I feel like it's just a tad too short for my frame. It's also very fitted and maybe a tad too snug. It looks like it fits in the photos but there is a lot of pressure from the straps on my neck and I feel like I need to pull it down like half an inch. Had the straps been adjustable I probably would have kept it! For size reference, I am 5'10, 135 lbs, 36B, size 6.
I love these bras. They are soooo comfortable and so soft. The one thing I dislike (and the reason for my 3 stars) is how easily the stitching comes apart. The first bra I bought, the stitching came apart after a couple of wears. The bra still fits, but eventually all the stitching came out until the whole thing became loose. I thought maybe I just got a doozy, so I bought two more. The first time I took off one of the new bras, the stitching ripped! I’m not taking off my bras aggressively or anything, so this was really disappointing. Especially for how much each bra costs. I’m 5’2, 120 pounds, 34A and bought a size small.

I got this bra in my stitch fix order, immediately fell in love and ordered a second. It is incredibly soft, has good support without feeling like it’s squeezing the life out of me, and seemed to be excellent quality. I have had this first bra for just five weeks, worn maybe once or twice a week, so a max of ten times. Folding up my laundry today I saw that one of the straps was ripped clean in half. I’m so sad, it is undoubtedly the most comfortable sports bra I’ve owned, but now I’m nervous to see how long the second one lasts. Hoping it was just a fluke and I can buy another to replace the ripped one soon.
I wear a 34DD but I prefer to get a small in Beyond Yoga tops because I find I get better support. The stretchy fabric is really versatile and the small in this top was quite flattering. Definitely not enough support for more activity than light yoga or lounging. I could have probably worn a medium as well, I just prefer a tighter fit.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The most comfortable sports bra there is! I think I need this in every single color because it's the perfect shape, comfort level, and has the perfect amount of support. I'm 9 months pregnant and ordered a size up and it fits perfectly!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wearing this bra on repeat. Going to buy more colors. So soft and holds well. You need this bra!

I've been wanting white gear from BY for a while now. This bra is a great start. I have plenty of the racerback bras in various colors, but this one seems a little different. The fabric is still soft and buttery, and great quality and stretch, but the fit seems larger than the other bras I own. I'm 5'4, 112lbs, 32C/34B, and got a size S, just like my other bras. I think I could have gone with an XS in this white bra because of the different fabric and stretch. It still stays in place and fits nicely, but it's larger than I would have selected for this style.
This bra just isn't for me. I'll wear it to hang out at home, but that's it. I am a 36D for reference. The straps felt uncomfortable on my shoulders and around my neck after a few hours, and I had to keep pulling the bra up in front. If I went a size up, it would be too big, and a size down would be way too small. The straps felt too long, and the bra felt a tad small. Adjustable straps might help, but I'm not sure. The overall fit was just off which is a bummer. Otherwise the material felt great and the quality was as expected from other BY purchases.
