This bra is nicely finished, as you would expect from a bra with a label that reads, "Made in Britain/Made with real silk." I expect the silk is the pink part, because obviously the entire bra isn't made from silk. The straps are fully adjustable and double from the front rather than the back. The cups are made of two parts for the bottom part (grey), with a lace piece above that, and a pink section covering the top. From the interior it is clear it is a standard 3-part bra.
The bra gives a rounded shape on the upper breast (a bit cakes on ... a plate) for me (FoB). I liked the shape it gave me. I have slight wrinkling at the bottom of the cup, probably due to insufficient projection. The gore is also too wide for me. The wire strength is somewhere between Panache (which can lie flat despite being too wide for me) and Freya (which does not tack on me). The gore settles for lying at an angle, flat on the smaller side and tilted against the larger side. It tacks, but against my breast instead of my breastbone.
The band feels like an average 34 band; less tight than Panache, but on par with Tutti Rouge, Fauve, Parfait, and others. I'd call it true-to-size.
The cups run a little small, I'd estimate about half a cup size smaller than most of my 34GGs or 36Gs. I was spilling out of one side. Sadly, GG is the largest cup size, so this is another brand I'm sized out of.
