Cake seems to have remedied the problem I experience in most woven, wireless bras: there is support for 30Gs and the cup doesn't collapse.

Like many wireless bras and bralettes, Sugar Candy is shallow near the gore. I quad a bit, but it doesn't show under thin knits. The quadding worsens after a few minutes of wear as my breast move toward the center. There is excess fabric in the outer portion of the cup that I want to shift near the gore. And, my breasts are pushed further east/west than they naturally prefer. The lift is exceptional; especially when one considers this has no wire. The heavy lifting is performed by layers of material folded along the base of the cup. This is more comfortable than a wire for me, but does feel strange. There is some bulk under each cup from the folded layers.

There is definitely space for immediate projection. However, there is no rounding after the lift; the result looks like torpedos. Grimace. But, under a thin knit, the cup is smooth. The Panache Alisha nursing bra was strangely lumpy. Surprisingly, I'm more likely to wear the 30GG Panache Alisha because the shape is more rounded and there are not multiple folds of fabric uncomfortably positioned under each breast.

Straps are fully adjustable and supportive. Band has 3x6 fasteners. The cup material doesn't stretch much. The band is fantastically supportive on my 28" underbust. However, I do wonder how long the 90% nylon/10% spandex will remain supportive. Supporting nursing mothers is a full-time job.

However, I doubt these folded layers would hold substantially larger breasts. It will be interesting to read what other users experience. Certainly, my breasts are well-supported, but I'm on the smaller side of the scale. Because the band does the heavy lifting, ordering the proper size may result in support for larger breasts. This band is supportive on my 28" underbust. I'm grateful!

Nylon dries quickly when wet. And, although I prefer cotton, the nylon may be a good fabric for leaking breasts and perspiration. Once the temperatures soar over 100 degrees F, I'll know more about the bra's drying and wicking properties.

Sadly, I don't think this bra is worth $60 USD. However, it does provide more support than any other wireless bra I've tried. That is definitely worth something https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> Sincere apologies for returning this before adding measurements. Oops.
