Pros:

This bra is SO gorgeous. The minty blue/green color fabric has a shiny finish. Even the straps are shiny. The delicate cream colored lace, contrast bow, and gold colored hardware go together nicely and look elegant.

The wires feel firm and do not distort upon minor stretching of the band. The construction of the bra looks excellent.

Cons:

The sizing of this (SS 2015 model) is waaaaay off. The band is stretchy and therefore the fit feels loose- the 28 band feels more like a Claudette 30 band. The cups are narrow, which I like, but very deep for this size. In my opinion, this 28D bra fits more like a 30DD, and would work for someone who needs a narrow and projected cup. The size is so far off for me that I'm looking to either sell this or I'll return it.

The wires might be painful. It is difficult for me to tell since the fit is poor on me and I only tried it on briefly. The gore is higher than other bras that I'm used to. It seemed that on the tightest hooks, the outsides and bottoms of the wires might dig into my ribcage, and on the loosest hooks, the gore might dig in. I'm not sure how this would wear through the day or be affected by breaking in and/or bending the wires.

I'm sad about the manufacturer's approach to sizing this bra because it is really beautiful and I wish I could wear it.
