Too small on me in the cup since I'm 28FF or 28G. Band's a little loose, too. Lovely bra though, for the right girl.

I can't stop singing the praises of this. For shallower-boobed ladies who still have non-negligible cup sizes, this is wonderful. It's not a pushup by any means, but it's supportive and feels like a nice boob hug!

The band is a bit stretchy; I'm wearing it on the second hook right now, I could probably wear it on the last hook (but I'm trying not to yet) and I haven't yet had it for a month. Once it stretches down to the last one I know I'm going to have to alter it down, as someone who's more suited to 28 bands.

I'm not sure how it'll hold up to the test of time, quality-wise, as the "stocking stripe" material is a little thin and consists of mesh over the foam molded lining, but for now, I love it! If only it came in other colors...not a huge fan of pink, and black/nude are too ubiquitous. Maybe I'll get one in nude or somethin' for t-shirt purposes, though...

There's not much to say about this bra. It is a very basic molded cup bra. It does have a little padding along the wire, so that makes it a bit more comfortable than others. It also has the option to clip the straps together in the back. It's good for a go-to nude bra. It does have a seam in the middle of the gore which irritates my skin, but I have very sensitive skin, so I may not be a good reference point.

Pros: Comfy, option to clip together in back

Cons: Seam in center of gore can irritate a bit

This is a cute bra that to be honest I don't think works for me. So close and yet so far! First off, the band seemed really stretchy and I had to put it on the first hooks in order to get a snug fit. My underbust measures about 31" snugly and 30" pulled super tight so usually I have to try both 30 and 32 bands depending on the brand. This bra also seemed kind of …flimsy? But that may be because I'm getting more used to Freyas and such. Or maybe it was because it was so stretchy. That said, it was very comfortable.
However, the biggest ... problem area was the (I'm guessing) width of the cups. While the underwires seemed to come up under my underarms enough, when I aggressively scooped and swooped, there was some quadboobage and also the bottoms of the cups didn't feel right, like my breast tissue wasn't getting to the bottom of them.
It's a shame because I really liked the striped design, so I'll probably look for a different brand with a similar fabric pattern!

This is a good bra, and quite comfortable for the most part. The only problem I have with this bra so far is that the underwire pokes under my arms. I believe it is just because I should have gotten a different size. It's my fault for not standing up to the saleswoman and I think the bra could be comfortable in the right size. The straps also clip in the back, so the bra is semi-convertible.

Pros: very cute, lining and cups are comfortable, band is comfortable, straps clip in the back to convert to racerback

Cons: Cups are too small and cause underwire to poke in the underarm area

This bra was sort of comfortable when trying it on and wearing it for a bit, however, trying to get the bra on was a bit tricky and the fabric used for the straps on the back for the hook and eye are itchy when trying to get the bra on and off.

Other than the under wires digging into my sternum this is a pretty great bra. After wearing it for a couple of hours it does seem like the straps on the right side may be set a little wide because I can feel them in my armpit.

So close to being a perfect bra. I tried on this bra at a Nordstrom store and it (seemed to) fit me perfectly! Later on I went home and ordered it online for about half the cost. I was overjoyed when it arrived in the mail, but upon putting it on I realized the cups were just barely too small. I had a slight case of quadboob. Real disappointment. I'm keeping this bra in case my boobs randomly shrink, but it's not perfect and I probably won't wear it. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

It's a shame because it's a really cute bra too, and it is not otherwise uncomfortable.

Just too narrow in the wire shape for me, and a little small overall. This is pretty close for me, in terms of sister sizes, but the shape isn't quite right. I'm too wide-set for it or something.

My first bra that fits really well! The gore fit flat for me and it looks really nice on. The band on the bottom gets a little itchy after time but not enough to bother me. When I wear tight shirts I can't see this bra under them at all.

Wow! This bra is utterly gorgeous! It is youthful, padded at the bottom for that extra oomph, and the detailing that went into it just tops it all!!

The band runs true to size but the cups run small, I'd say bout half a cup because of the padding at the bottom. It is not very much, only about half an inch of padding.
This bra is good for women who have lost the volume at the top of their breasts. I would consider myself more full on the bottom, but it gives me quadboob regardless https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
I think the ... cups are placed a tiny bit too far apart, because usually push up bras are suppose to give some cleavage, but this bra keeps them pretty separate on me.

Since the cups are a tad small, it feels like any tissue I scoop into the cup will find its way out at the sides. I think 1 cup up would do the trick, but Betsey Johnson only goes to DD https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
Overall, pretty pretty pretty bra! I recommend it to anyone who is looking for more volume at the top.

Update: After tightening the band, the cups feel even smaller. I'll need to alter the gore too, to make more space in the cups. Shape under clothes is slightly pointy.

Material feels comfortable, band seems a little flimsy. I'm probably just partial to a wider band. Straps have the catch on the back to change into a racer back style. Medium padding for a push up bra.

This bra is very cute. My only complaint is that the band stretched out a bit from the time of purchase and now I wear it on the tightest set of hooks which has caused the tag to uncomfortably rub against my skin when it didn't before.

I have wide-set/rooted breasts that spread out under my arms and is fuller at the bottom. Betsey Johnson bras usually extend to that area so I have several in this brand. This style in particular does a pretty good job. I have a feeling if I got this in my usual size it would fit perfectly (I got it on sale in 32D instead of 30DD).

Pros:
- Incredibly comfortable (I can sleep in these)
- wide under wire (extends to underarms)
- strap width is sufficient for my size (bigger boobs might need thicker straps?)
- straps are fully adjustable

Cons:
- I can't say until I get the proper size

I went in last week and was fitted at Nordstrom. This was the bra they used to fit me. I bought it online rather than in the store, saving some $$. However, in the dressing room at the store I didn't notice the wider set straps cut in on my arms a little. I have narrow shoulders, so that can be an issue. I haven't worn this yet, so I can't say if the straps will have a falling off issue. I like the way my breasts look in this bra. I'd recommend it if you had similar breasts with wider ... shoulders than me.

Update, I realized last night that I bounce quite a bit in this, which I believe is a too loose band issue. Keeping the bra, as I still like the shape it gives me, but it would be better for someone with a larger rib age. Realized the underwires come well past my breast tissue into my armpits. Cups are just too wide for me. Disappointed that this was the bra the fitter put me into. It is reasonably comfortable and gives nice shape.

The bra is very pretty, but makes my breasts look far apart. It also gives me quad boob.

I'm updating and condensing this review as I've had this bra for more than a year now.

This set is soo cute but has been a disappointment. The band is very flimsy and very stretchy. A few months ago I had the band altered down to a 28. It helped with the band riding up quite a bit but I still need to wear it on its tightest hooks and it still rides up a tad. Just enough to still be annoying. I keep this bra now for show and lounging around the house.

More food for thought: I finally took pics. The pics are after the band has been altered down and I'm wearing the bra on its tightest hooks. I have also grown in cup size since my original purchase of this bra.

Almost fits. The cups are too small but looks like it would be very comfy otherwise.

I knew from the start, in the store, that this bra did not really fit me. But the Nordstrom fitter kind of bullied me into it, and this was my first attempt at getting a bra with a band under a 32 so I went along with it because it did fit better than my previous bras.

This isn't the right size for me, so of course there was some quadboob and other problems associated with a bra that is too small.

At first, the 30 band seemed like it would fit well, but after about 10 wears, the band seemed to have stretched out considerably and I now ... need to wear this bra on the tightest hook.

The main thing that I hate about this bra is the separation between the cups. I don't think the amount this bra separates me is flattering in the slightest, and it makes me look very wide from the front, yet from the side it makes me look smaller. Not really what I was going for.

On the appearance, I think the bra is very pretty and I own it in both nude and black. I'm a bit irritated by the two straps coming together to make one, because it seems that either part of this decorative double strap or the bow will constantly be poking out. This bra is however nearly invisible under clothes.

Pretty, soft and comfortable. The straps seem a little too far apart, but that might just be due to my very narrow shoulders. The band is very stretchy, so I'm concerned that the fit may not be as great after some wear. The cups fit perfectly smoothly (no wrinkles or gaps), though it seemed at first that they were set a little too wide or far apart. I've gotten used to the cup placement though, and they look fine.
