I tried this bra on again, 7 months since the last time (and since my measurements have changed slightly). The fit was pretty amazing! And I almost bought it. Great support and great fit. However, the horizontal seams really show through under tees and knits -- even under a tee AND a thin sweater. Since that's pretty much all I wear, and I really didn't like the horizontal seams showing through, I passed on it. The shape is also a little more torpedo-y than I like.

Tropical peach colorway

    I have a few of these that I had bought in maybe 2011 and really never wore. I started wearing them, pleased with the shape of my boobs and the look of the bra, generally. So then went searching for more Wacoal retro chic bras, and discovered, sadly, that the same bra makes me torpedo-y (ugh). I don't know if they moved a seam between 2011-12 and now, but I was sad that I can't replace these bras.

    berexxa Thank you for your comment! I am sorry it took me years(!) to reply, but your comment was helpful - maybe it explains the torpedo mystery! ;-)

Great fit! However, I hate the horizontal seams.
