Received pre-loved, so the band may be stretched from wear. I am going to have it altered so that the band is shortened and the straps are angled closer to the clasp in the back.
It is, of course, gorgeous. The sepia w/raspberry color way is lovely. The lace overlay and embroidery would be lumpy under thin or tight fabrics.
The cups are just a bit wider set than usual, but fine for me. A more narrow torso would have a problem. The compromise between my larger and smaller sides is acceptable since the top is so open. I have a bit of orange in a glass, but I am so used to more that it doesn't even count.
Padded, wide-set straps are pretty and comfy but would be problematic for those with slimmer shoulders and under most tank tops.
The clasp only has 2 hooks, which is ridiculous when it's supposed to carry the weight of GG's. It does, but I don't know how, and it would be far more balanced looking with 3 or 4.
The band, as on the Rhea, is the only real weakness. The satin wings are nice, but not built for longevity. (Thus my need to alter/repair all of mine.) If the satin had been reinforced by a powermesh, this would not be an issue and the cost of these bras would be more justified.

This bra is not owned any more
