Reviewing + Ranking All My Honeylove Bras | Sizing Advice + Exclusive Discount

If you’ve been reading the blog or watching my YouTube channel, you know that I am a huge fan of the Honeylove shape wear line. Their quality and compression is unmatched. My most worn Honeylove pieces, however, have turned out to be their bras.

As I was packing for our cross-country move from Los Angeles to Atlanta, I realized that the only bras I had been wearing for the past two years have been my Honeylove. They’ve really figured out how to make the most flattering bras and somehow also make them comfortable. I cleared out my bra drawer and tossed all the older bras that had just been taking up space!

In this post, I wanted to compare each of their bra styles with reviews about what I like and dislike about each style. Also, I’ll give my size in each style and size recommendations. For reference, my standard bra size is a 38D.

This post is not sponsored, but Honeylove has provided these bras as press samples, so that I am able to compare all the styles for you. They have also offered an exclusive discount for GGG readers. Just click the links in this post, you’ll automatically save 10% on your entire Honeylove order, no code needed.

I hope this helps if you are trying to decide the best size or style for yourself!

1 | Silhouette Bra

retail | $64 (save 10% with this link)

my size | Large

support level | Mid

The Silhouette style was my most worn out of all three styles.

It’s incredibly comfortable and provides medium support and a great bust lift. It’;s slightly more flexible vs the Crossover style.

The adjustable straps make it the easiest style to wear as someone who is petite and as the straps stretch with wear, they can be adjusted shorter.

The thinner straps also fit nicely under all my tank tops and summer dresses.

This style does have a back clasp.

2 | V-Neck Bra

retail | $64 (save 10% with this link)

my size | Medium

support level | Mid

This style was the first bra that Honeylove released and the first one I tried.

This is their only bra with wider straps and these straps do not adjust.

The wider straps always stay comfortable, I’ve fallen asleep in this bra. It’s a really nice option for a larger bust.

The only downside to this bra is the the straps and back are not adjustable. You pull this bra on over your head, or step into it. I personally prefer having adjustable straps, as I have a petite length torso.

I find that because the straps are not adjustable, this style lasts me about 1.5 years before needed to be replaced due to the fabric stretching out.

This fabric does stretch and mold to you within 2-3 wears, like all their compression fabrics, so I do prefer to size down. The bra should feel snug, but still comfortable at first.

The size Large stretched out too much for my liking, so now I get this bra in size Medium for the best lift.

In my opinion, the v-Neck bra is the best work-from-home or weekend bra.

3 | CrossOver Bra

retail | $69 (save 10% with this link)

my size | Large

support level | Firm

The Crossover style is my preferred bra of all three styles.

Out of all three of the Honeylove bra styles, the CrossOver bra has the most firm support.

The semi-thin straps hide well under most of my tanks. This bra clasps and adjusts at the back.

I originally preferred the medium support and flexibility of the Silhouette style, but recently I’ve been reaching for the CrossOver bra the most. The slightly firmer support gives my bust a great lift.

Washing Tip | For the best longevity for you Honeylove Bra, I do recommend washing your bras in the Honeylove wash bag in cool water. Then hang them to dry, so the fabric stays in it’s best shape.

Dryer heat makes stretch fabric lose elasticity, so it’s especially important to air dry bras to keep them in their best shape.

  1. I ordered the crossover bra with the smallest band size, 30, that equals sz. xs. The band slides up. constantly pulling the band down. Anyone else have this issue?

  2. Straps are way too thin. All models are perfect sizes. I’m 78 and 125 lbs but need a bra that lifts and has a wide band and straps.

    • Hi Sherry! I’d recommend trying the Honeylove Crossover bra. The straps are slightly wider than the Silhouette style. And provides wonderful lift. I hope this helps!

      – Molly

  3. Myproblem is that all these wonderful bra companies totally ignore women who need mastectomy bras. There are large numbers of women who would pay out of pocket , not use Medicare. Thank you.

  4. Received my HL bras. They’re beautiful. They are a little tight across the back. The extenders that I have are not compatible with HL. How can I order 1 black, 1 beige and 1 white so I can actually wear these bras. Thanks so much!

    • Hi Donna!

      So happy you love the HL bras! I have personally not tried an extender with them, so I am not sure which to recommend. I will say though, all my bras were ever so slightly snug at first (but not tight, no skin pinching) and they do stretch out over the first week I wore them. Have you gotten a chance to wear them yet? If it doesn’t seem like they are totally the right fit, I know HL is really good with helping to exchange sizes… I hope this helps!

      – Molly

  5. My wife is 78 years young. She said that her size is 34 D. I do not know what that translates to, so could you help. Also, which Bra do you recommend for my lady.
    Thanks,

    • Hi Bob! You are a sweetheart! I think her best fit would be a size Medium. The Silhouette style is medium support and the Crossover is more firm support. So it will come down to personal preference on choosing the style, but I do think a Medium would probably work best for her being a 34 D. I hope this helps! – Molly

  6. When you actually start using models with actual back fat that I can see be smoother, before I spend $70 on any freaking bra

  7. Hi, I clicked on the links but was not offered 10% off at checkout. Do you know if the offer has expired? Thank you

  8. I cannot find anywhere that says if these bras are molded cup, lightly lined, padded or unlined. What are they? Thank you.

    • Hi Lisa! Great question! I got into a lot more detail on my video reviews of each bra, but should include that info here as well!

      The bras are molded cups, no underwire, with removable modesty padding. I hope this helps! – Molly

  9. Thanks for your blog and review. I bought 1 honeylove bra, the silhouette. The only thing I have issue with is the front rolls up and than winds up under my breast. Am I not wearing it tight enough? Has this ever happened to you.

    • Hi Karen! Happy the review was helpful! I have not had that happen and am wondering if the shoulder straps could be tightened a little? Or perhpas sizing down so the band is more snug (but not tight) under the bust? Hopefully this helps!

      – Molly

  10. I’ve been checking out the crossover but I’ve always needed bras with underwires. Bras like these styles look more like a sports bra with a uniboob affect. Thoughts?

  11. I loved the way it fits, but it rubs into my skin when I sit down it so uncomfortable. I bought 2 of them and can’t wear them. It feels like plastic against my skin.

    • Oh dear, sorry to hear that! The bras are made from the same lifting/compression fabric as their shorts, so I can imagine that fabric doesn’t work for everyone based on personal preference, etc. I would reach out to their customer service, though, they are really great return and exchange policies if the tags are still in place (I think!) – Molly

  12. My bra doesn’t fit.
    I usually wear a 38 D, it is too loose and gaps at the axilla. I wear it anyway, what size should I order next time?

    Thanks vicki
