About me: center full and close set, full on bottom with tall, gradually sloping roots that make me functionally even in some ways, narrow, projected

This bra is BEAUTIFUL. THe photos don't do it justice. It's a beautiful green (I don't know the correct color word) satin bra with a beige lace overlay. It has green and beige satin bows with pearl embellishments.

As for the cups, they are too wide for me, but the straps aren't too wide-set and there's adequate room at the gore and at the wire for me. The straps themselves are quite wide and soft and the band is ... comfortable to me. The height of the cups works for me, as well, which can be a struggle for me as I have a very short torso.

All in all, even though I had to size up for depth, I find this bra comfortable and supportive - my shoulders, back and neck don't hurt, which is what happens when I am wearing a poorly fitting bra, and my clavicles don't hurt, which is what happens when I don't wear a bra. I'd say it's on par with my favorite bra, a Comexim 3HC (65H), in terms of support and wearability.

About me: center full and close set, dense, narrow, projected, full on bottom with tall, gradually sloping roots.

I get significant quad boob and my breasts push the wires/cups down so that they don't sit in my imf. That being said, it is still more supportive than a number of my other technically fitting bras. The only problem is that the wires hit in a weird spot and make my ribs sore and maybe even a bit slippy (connective tissue disorder problems). Comexim 3hc bras fit me quite a bit better.

About the bra: seemless sheer-ish foam cups that are wonderfully narrow and deep (I'll have to compare measurements, but I think it's comparable to Simena); band is tighter and less itchy than some gorsenias I've tried, but it doesn't have uniform stretch? Tension? The elastic is tighter than the band.

I am so torn about this bra. It has so much that works more me that few other bras do:
* the cup separation isn't too splayed, so I have enough room at the center ... and the wires don't sit on any tissue;
* the cups are beautifully narrow U shapes that don't come up too high for me;
* the fabric disappears on me, making it an option for t shirts (which I currently lack).

And now the cons:
* The cup height/strap placement combo cuts in above my arm pits;
* The fabric is texturally awful for me personally - if you have sensory issues with things with ridges, this may be a problem for you;
* The bottom elastic on the band is tighter than the band overall, making it cut in.

Who would this work for? Someone like me (see above) who is taller or has more padding or a better tolerance for stuff rubbing above the arm pits and who wouldn't mind an extender until the bottom elastic on the band chills out a bit.

I'm contemplating modifying this somehow because the cups are so perfect and that's so rare for me to find, but even if I did have the skill level (I don't), I'm pretty sure I can't handle working with that fabric for any length of time.

This bra is too small for me to comment on proper fit, but the fabric is beautiful! I soft, ever so slightly pearlescent? Not color changing, but it has a lovely satin sheen.

Holy straps in my arm pits, bat man! These cups are wider than I need, plus my having a short torso, plus the placement of the straps makes this bra a nonstarter for me. It's a shame because it's got plenty of center and (I think) immediate projection, which I really need. The gore is close enough together and the splay at the bottom isn't very far out, which helps with the amount of room at the center. I ... can't speak to how it would wear over time because it was too ridiculous proportions-wise to wear for more than trying on.

The bra itself is quite lovely. It's a cream/beige 3 part cup that's stiffer than Freya half cups, probably on par with Comexim, which I appreciate because it feels sturdier and more supportive to me. Then, on top of the beige, there's a black and metallic silvery-beige lace that looks nice IMO. The band isn't overly stretchy like I've encountered with some Gorsenias.

I think this bra would work better for someone who is taller/taller in the torso than I am. That may cut down on the cutting in, but maybe not.

Editing to add: it has cookie pockets, too! Can't believe I forgot. My first bra with them!

Rose dust color. Band is too loose and left cup, my smaller side, wrinkles a bit at the top. The straps seem a bit too far to the sides and cuts in under my arms (which is a common problem for me). I may try a 30DDD to tighten up the band, potentially eliminate cup being used as band to make tight enough, and bring the sides in a little bit so they hopefully wouldn't cut in.

I got the rouge color. The wires may be a bit too wide, but it's hard to tell. The fabric, while beautiful, is not super comfortable as it's kind of scratchy/not soft. The gore doesn't tack on me. I plan to try a 30DDD or E/F.

About me: center full and close set, narrow roots, full on bottom with tall, gradually sloping roots that make me functionally even in some respects.

I purchased this bra after trying the 65F Sandy Semi Soft and finding it too small in the cups. I find that Gaia bands run big/are very stretchy, and that's the case with this bra, as well. I lack the upper fullness to fill the top of the cup, so it gapes/falls flat (it's too structured to wrinkle). I really wish this bra were a good fit for me because it has quite a lot of room at the gore and the wires run parallel for longer than most, so the splay at the bottom is minimal. There may be something about the fit that I'm overlooking or missing, but I can't tell what that would be.

I think this would work well for someone with similar attributes to mine but with more upper fullness and someone who doesn't mind a stretchy band. For the right person, it would make a lovely t-shirt bra.

About me: dense, center full and close set, full on bottom with tall, sloping vertical roots and narrow horizontal width.

The cups are wonderfully narrow and deep, but the straps are so uncomfortable above my armpits. It's a combo of the height of the cups, how far out to the side the straps are, and the fact that the strap fabric has very little give where it meets the top of the cup met with my very short torso, so everything sort of converges in the least ideal spot, I think. The band is tight, but not uncomfortably so for me. The embroidery and colors are beautiful! I wish it were a better fit for me.

Mahogany rose color. Band felt too loose. Cups wrinkle at the top. Underwire seems okay but can't tell if it tacks fully.
