This doesn't seem like a minimizer bra in the shape it gives. I have a hard time finding bras that I can tolerate. This one is pretty good, but starts to hurt at the sides after about 5 hours. Actually one of my fits to date.
Band= doesn't feel right. I can't figure out what it is. It's not stretchy and feels tight, but it rides up in back and I can pull it away from my body in back. I think it is too loose. Cups= way too tall. Bottom fits, top edge fits when I'm standing up straight. Weirdly designed (see wire notes). Gaping directly above boob apex (as usual) Straps= way too far apart. Cut into arm crease or fall off. If I tighten them, the band rides up more. NOT padded at shoulder. Wire= not sure what to think. Seems to fit, but I'm still always adjusting it back up into my boob ...crease.. Fabric of cup comes from OUTER edge of wire, which is so bizarre. Tilts outward from the top and cuts into my body. Uncomfortable. Center gore= more weirdness. Way too high, but flares OUT at the top.
