Cups are very rounded and forward projecting. I like that it puts all of my breast well above the bottom edge of the underwire. Underwire doesn't poke or rub, and seems to be well-enclosed in the fabric to be comfortable. The cups fit well if you like this shape and don't cut in across my full on top breasts, but the band is very stretchy compares to other Ewa bras I've tried, and I would reccomend sizing down from your normal band size to start with.

The straps are convertible and it comes with several straps to use depending on occasion (straight, criss-cross, halter, etc.). I found ... that I can't use the padded straps at all, though they feel really soft and nice to the touch. I need to extend them to their maximum length, which then puts the end seam of padded area right on the apex of my shoulder to cut in, and the padded area is in front of my shoulder and not doing any of the work of padding because of placement. Not comfortable. The other set of simple band straps it comes with fit me ok, almost fully extended, but they rub at the front of my armpit just a little bit. (Bothered me a lot the first wear or two, but not really an issue once the fabric softened.)

The contrast materials - shiny and matte finishes - are really nice touches.
