Hallelujah, I've found my holy grail everyday wear bra!!! Thank you sooo much reddit and bratabase - I'm forever indebted to you!!!
I have shallow, FOB, wide-set breasts and for years wore 34B bras. Then I got fitted at Victoria's Secret and life improved when I started wearing 32C, but even so, I still had that horrible gaping problem often enough that I started researching online and discovered that I'm actually a 30C/30D!!! I got fitted in a wonderful boutique lingerie store where the sales associate suggested that I try the Natori Feathers bra, and I couldn't believe that a plunge bra with such light padding gave me SO MUCH cleavage and it didn't gape at all!! The 30C fit ok, but gave me slight quadboob after it settled from scooping/swooping. The 30D fits better, but when my body is in certain positions, it does accentuate my armpit fat (I'm not sure what's the proper term for that) a bit with the first few wears. Regardless, I'll gladly accept that problem since it stretches out over time and because everything else about this bra is amazing!! I bought a few of them for super cheap on eBay and they are the bras I wear the most.
I just wish that there was a push-up strapless version of this bra so I could wear with my low-cut/strapless outfits. The only other problem is finding my right size in other brands since I have been using this as my benchmark and it tends to run a bit small. I've been dying to get a freya moulded cup bra, and I've been debating whether to try 28DD or 28D. Any advice is gladly welcome!

  I don't recommend Freya bras. If VS and Natori fit your shape, go with Aerie, b.tempt'd, Betsey Johnson, and Thirdlove in 30D.

  Maybe the b.tempt'd b.wow'd bra would be good - it has lots of padding and convertible straps. Not sure about strapless bras though

  It's not. In fact it's the one I would not recommend out of all the b.tempt'd styles. It's not great for FOB types. If you're sure of your FOB shape go for the Aerie Blakely, Bridget, and Hannah. Thirdlove Plunge Perfect is also a good one.

  ^Thirdlove's Plunge Perfect is supposed to be a Natori Feathers clone I think. They're discontinuing it though. The last few sizes are on sale on Thirdlove's website.
