I'd heard so many great things about this bra, but for me that's just not the case. Fit is one issue, as it's much too big around and much too small in the cups. The other issue is that this bra is truly, incredibly ugly. I was actually relieved when it fit so poorly. I'm 24 and just seeing this bra in my drawer would make me think I was 60.
The straps are very wide, I'm sure for comfort, but taken to the extreme. The body of the bra looks and feels like armor. If it fit it would probably ...be invisible under a T-shirt, as it's nearly completely seamless with hidden underwire and a great nude color. It looks like it would be supportive and it's clearly well made, but it's definitely not for me.
As for fit, it wasn't even close. The underwire sits at least an inch away from my sternum, partly because the band is simply too big, but also because my breasts don't come close to fitting into the cups. I tried it in both an F and G cup, and they're both so far off I couldn't tell any difference.
The more I think of it, I think the issue isn't so much that the bra doesn't fit me, but rather I don't fit this bra, because the bra itself is not one that will forgive or conform in any way. Read more 140 more words

When I bought it, the 34 felt accurate, but it has since stretched out. The cups are very firm. While the wire doesn't poke anywhere, the outside edge of the cup between the wire and strap does dig into my flesh some.
I inherited this bra from a friend who lost weight, and I'm not totally sure about the size. It's a very good quality bra (though not pretty), but this was before my big bra revelation, and now there's no way I would wear a 36 band for any reason.
This bra fits great. Full coverage with no gapping at the top. It's extremely comfortable. The band is tight, but not overly so. I would definitely buy another in a different color. Great everyday bra.
I'm SOOOO disappointed this bra did not fit me. It's beautiful & soft but only go up to an F cup. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
I have made a mistake with this bra, ordering a cup smaller than I should. But it still fits in a way if I stuff the breasts in it to avoid spillage, supports and doesen't slide. It's nice to let the shoulders rest completely. It doesen't show through clothes.
It however makes my bust lower-positioned and gives it a really weird look from the front - it cuts in the sides of the breasts. But probably it's the sizing issue. It is certainly usable with many tops I never thought I could wear.
This bra is just not going to work for me. I can't tell if the cup is too big on one side - or its just that the style does not work with my shape. There seems to be a lot of room between the strap and the area above my breast (below the shoulder). The other side fits better but cuts into my breast a bit - after the bra pushes it up a little. I don't quite understand the hype around this bra - I had hoped for a miracle I guess!
The no9 bra is supposed to be made for implants. Freya and Panache do a much better job at fitting augmented breasts. The bra itself is pretty, but the fit is horrible. The straps are thin and pretty, but are place very far out on the cup. The band stretches easily during wear, I often have to tighten it to the next set of hooks in part way through the day.
