wire is hard for me. but texture is soft.

It's really comfortable. I have shallow breasts that are difficult to find bras for. And this comes really close to perfect.

I tried a 32C first as I fit that size in the other bras I tried at Aerie, but got slight quadboob. The 32D fits perfectly. The cups/straps are a bit further apart than I'm used to, but fits my natural shape well. Most bras try to smoosh my boobs together in the centre when they are naturally quite distanced and go out to the sides while being nearly flat around the sternum.

This bra supported them just where they are meant to be, which is a novelty! I first thought it made my breasts look too far apart TBH, but it looks excellent under a T-shirt and is ridiculously comfortable - I had to double check that it had a wire even! It is a very basic bra, functional. It goes a bit higher at the arpit than I'm used to but it encompasses my Tail of Spence completely which feels good.

If only I had larger boobs then it will fit correctly.

If you have smaller boobs then size down for this bra.

Snug but can stretch well. It's a sports bra so it really keeps the breasts tight. The wide straps are excellent at not digging in, and the cross straps on back prevent them from sliding off my shoulders. The fabric can breathe and stretch and not rip seams while doing so.

This bra does not fit me, but it’s close enough to work while I find one that does. It’s is incredibly soft. The band is less stretchy than other Aeries bras which I hope will allow it to last longer. I noticed that the cups are a bit too far apart for me which is disappointing because if they ever do make this in my correct size, I think it will still be a shape mismatch.

My calculated/recommended size is UK 28E; I got a 32C in the Soft Muslin color and Eyelash Lace Lightly Lined Bra variant just to test out the size at the very beginning of my ABTF journey. My measurements are 28"/27"/26" underbust, 32.5"/34.5"/33" bust. I would describe my shape as being projected, FOB, tall roots, very close-set, splayed roots.

Even though this quite a bit off from my "true" size, this honestly doesn't fit too badly. Though the Aerie bands tend to run a little small, for sure the gore doesn't tack, I can fit my whole fist under the band, the wires lift up from my body, and the ... bra functions as more of a boob hat than truly supportive. The gore is also too wide (a problem with all wired bras for me). This Eyelash Lace style is made of a T-shirt/molded cup with a lace overlay (and actually is smooth under T-shirts, despite the lace). I can tell it's a little too shallow (the wire sits under my IMF), but I think because of the very open top cut, I don't actually have too much weirdness fitting into the cup.

Despite the fit issues, this is pretty enough for me to keep! The rose gold hardware is just the nicest touch, too.

This bra is very comfortable and has great support. The wires don’t dig in and the straps don’t dig in or slide. The cups are a little wide set but not enough to be an issue. The bra is very pretty and well designed. Heads up: this bra follows the +4 method. Ex: 32d=28f

Like all Aerie bras, it's shallow and not for even slightly projected shapes. The cups buckle near the wire a bit, but I'm still wearing it till I find something better; at least it's comfortable!

Cups are molded and very shallow; if you have uneven breasts, this bra definitely emphasizes that unevenness.

Overall very comfortable and supportive style, creates nice cleavage without being too much. Current cup size no longer fits, but band runs true to size and has stretched minimally over the 9 months I’ve had and worn this bra (almost daily). Smooth molded cups don’t show under clothing, and cup shape lends nicely to v-neck tops.

Fits great. I’m a 34DD and it fits well. The only issue for me is that racer back hurts my neck after a full day of wear

This XL is a beautiful boob hat for a 34GG person (who didn't know that at the time of purchase). Once I learned to scoop and swoop I saw that it couldn't contain me at all.

Very comfortable bra, even though it is too small for me. The material is soft and comfortable, band and straps fit well. The “push up” is not much, it’s really just a little bit thicker all around which I tend to lean towards in bras because I have my nipples pierced and unlined and sometimes even lightly lines bras let them peak out sometimes lol. I don’t know if it’s the push up aspect or if the bra runs small but if I were to repurchase I would go up a cup size or try the non-push up.

It would be a great bra, if it fit. I bought this in high school and I have no idea why I thought it fit. I am bigger now than I was in high school and the band is way too big for me now. My sister has the same bra in her size after I measured her properly and it is her favorite bra.

I'll be honest, up until I got my Comexim Ardea, this was my cleavage bra. I still wear it on occasion because it does give a nice lift.

It is definitely too small for me in the cup. However the band is actually a pretty good fit, despite being a 32. Another Aerie band that runs tight, I suppose.

Now my biggest issue with this bra isn't the fit of the cups, it is the dumb mesh that is connect to the straps. As shown in the pictures, if I wear the straps as intended the mesh is pretty flush with my body, but they're about to fall ... off my shoulders, way too wide for me. However, if I wear the straps where they feel comfortable, the mesh gets extremely wrinkly and looks awful. Maybe this would work better for someone with tall roots and wide shoulders? I'm not sure, but it definitely doesn't work for me.

The one kind of positive and negative about this bra is the firm padding. It's nice because most American push ups, my breasts laugh at and push down, due to my immediate projection. This one actually can combat the immediate projection and look smooth. The down side is that while the immediate projection doesn't cause visible issues, I can definitely feel my breasts trying to push the padding down and this causes the wires to feel pretty uncomfortable. It's fine for when I want to wear it for a day to have nice cleavage, but this could never be an everyday bra for me, even in the proper size.

First things first, this bra is a cup size too small for me now, due to gaining muscle and losing some fat.

Regardless of the size being off now, I cannot believe I ever wore this bra. Despite being wireless, it is more painful on my ribs than any wired bra I own. The seams on the side of the cup press into my ribs so hard. Now, one thing to keep in mind is that at the time I was probably pulling the band out of my IMF to make room, since the cups were folding. At the time of buying this bra, I had not very realized I was immediately projected. I thought I was shallow because I had self supporting breasts. Classic rookie mistake.

As you can see, wearing this in the IMF shows how shallow this bra actually is. Even if I was wearing this bra in a cup size up, there's not way it would have enough depth at the wire for me. I'm sure this would work great for someone shallow though.

I am apparently more projected than this bra can fit, so I feel squished flat as if wearing a sports bra. Combined with center fullness, I have a fair amount of tissue spillage due to the shape of the cups. The cup is also wide at the bottom, so the bra itself collapses under boob weight and wrinkles near the wings without a underwire. It's comfortable to wear, but the fitting issues outweighs how pretty it is.

I'm new to ABTF, previously worn 32B/C, recommended now to a 30DD or 32D, so this is the second size I've tried in this bra, and this is a much better fit for cup size with a 32D rather than a 32C. I'm center full, so I do have some slight quad-boob happening in the middle section, but it's not majorly visible, and the cup feels like a good fit for my even top-bottom fullness and slight projection besides that. Lovely dark olive green color.
