BAND: My underbust measures 30 inches. I don't like super tight bands, so I went for a 32, but I can fasten this bra on the tightest hooks and it is still a bit looser than I'd prefer. Partially this is because the fabric is very stretchy. The band seems to run a bit big/loose.

There are three rows of hooks, which is great and supportive. The fabric of the band is so stretchy though, and the material seems to want to slide around, so I do have to readjust once in a while and re-swoop and scoop.

CUPS: The cups are constructed with three seams. I have very sensitive skin, so although the fabric is pretty soft and comfortable, the seams irritate my skin a little.

At first I thought the cups were too big, but after swooping and scooping, I had no problem filling them. Since my breasts are full on the bottom (as opposed to full on the top), I didn't get the push-up/cleavage effect that some others do while wearing this bra, but it does lift and separate well. The depth of the cups is fine for me, and it gives a nice shape both from the front and from the side.

The problem is that the wires are too wide. I prefer a more front and center shape, and this is a bit east/west for me.

WIRES: The wires on this bra are about an inch too wide for me. As mentioned before, initially I thought that the cup size was too large, but really, I just need a narrower shape. The wires are also very high, and as a petite woman (5'2"), when I'm wearing the bra high enough on my torso, they end up cutting into my armpits.

Overall, this is a beautiful bra and it seems to be well-constructed. It just runs a bit big in the band and wide/high in the wires for me. Still, compared to the 36DD's that I was wearing before, it is closer to a true fit for me. The search continues!

This bra is not owned any more
