Didn't fit

Only worn for a few minutes to try on and review. Bought for $28.33 online (free shipping & returns) from asos.com in February 2014.
Wires - Wide enough to reach nearly behind my arms, and tall but not uncomfortable under arms. I think the wires were so wide because I overstretched the band. Since the band doesn't continue under the wires, it is easier for them to be pulled and distorted.
Comfort - Bandless, so wires sit directly on ribs, which is slightly uncomfortable but bearable. However, the wires seem to rub my sternum, causing irritation. Straps are wide-set enough to rub the front of my armpit, but I'm used to this.
Fit - Band feels OK, but can be pulled a few inches away, and since I measure about 31 inches (comfortably snug), it is probably on the looser/stretchier side. (I measured the stretched band at 33.5 inches, but the wires seemed to get wider after stretching to only 29 inches.) The center gore does not tack. Cup cuts in a tiny bit on larger side and gapes a tiny bit on smaller side, but neither issue is visible under clothing. There is a fold at the bottom of the cup on both sides. Both sides have empty space at the top corners where my armpit/boob crease is.
Under clothing - Very nice round shape; the seams are not completely invisible but not too noticeable.
Overall - I'd like to find a bra with much narrower and deeper cups, and possibly lower cups where the strap meets the cup. Ideally the straps would be set close enough not to touch the front of my armpit.
