OK I don't actually have this bra, but I did try it on in the store today. I am a 42G in Elomi bras at Nordstroms. [edit - ha! I'm a 38H at Nordstrom. Fitter error.] I tried on the 42G in this bra at Cacique.

Whereas I fit the Elomi bra perfectly, the gore on the French full coverage bra wouldn't tack, the underwires were too shallow, I had noticeable quad-boob, the band rode up, and it was just uncomfortable.

Obviously they've incorrectly sized this bra. The Cacique fitters were surprised that it was noticeably smaller than the other lines of bras that they carry in the same size.

I've had this bra for a year but I lost track of it and didn't wear it for a few months. It's my best fitting bra at the moment.

I fill the cups well and the straps are easy to adjust. It lays flat on my sternum without digging in. I worry that the sides are not supportive enough because they sit next to my breast and not behind it. The band fits well and sits the in right spot.

This is an excellent bra. It has foam underwire padding under the cup that makes it so comfortable and prevents the underwire from digging into me. The really uncomfortable part of this bra is the plastic supports in the side of the band which curve and stab me. I will be removing these later.

At my most recent trip to Lane Bryant, I picked up this bra thinking that it wouldn't fit because it is the same size as the t-shirt bras I had previously bought and weren't quite fitting anymore. It was the last bra of that style there, and was just hanging out on a random rack. My first impression? This bra is gorgeous. Fucking gorgeous. Luckily, the bra fit like a dream.

It is has a soft, half cup lining, with a black and gold overlay. Each cup has boning, and three bows along with a bow at the gore. Wearing this bra makes me feel sexy.

The gore is ... wider than any other bra that I own, and because my boobs are considered separate, the width really worked out for me. The gore lies flat against my chest and doesn't move. The only con is that I can't wear this bra under clothes. The boning and bows both show through clothing. This is a great piece, but definitely not for everyday wear.


Update 6/28/2013: It is blindingly obvious to me that this bra does not fit anymore, but it's so gosh darn pretty that I can't get rid of it. The wires are far too narrow, and I now get an odd quadboob within the bra, where the line and lace meet.

I really loved this bra before I realized that I had migrated tissue and started looking for new sizes. It fit perfectly before scooping - flat against the sternum, tight enough in the band, low wires under the armpit and in the gore, and it was really pretty. The lace didn't show under clothes, but I felt like I was wearing something special. I still wear it, but I can't scoop without overflowing the cups and pushing out the gore. I need to try it again in 40 band and larger cups (H maybe). It is much less coverage than the Elomi bras I've tried, so if you want underarm/side coverage, this isn't for you.

I like the look of the bra, and this is the first bra I've found where the center gore actually tacks down all the way. However, when I look down, it seems my boobs look a little lopsided. Also, the cup comes up too high under my arms which is uncomfortable. I will get used to it, but it's not my holy grail bra.

This bra was fun, giving lots of "uplifting" support and a cute design. Pretty sturdy! Cut into my shoulders and gore didn't lay flat, but that was my own fault. However, Cacique has changed the materials/design of this bra within the past 9mos to year, and it is no longer as sturdy, or of as high a quality. Went to buy a second one, and had to return it. Disappointing!

I love this bra, I have about 5 of them and I pretty much rotate them everyday. Having said that this is the first bra I bought after I realized that I was wearing the wrong sized bra for the last 10 years so I may feel partial to it because it is the first bra I can remember wearing all day and not "feeling" it at all. Unfortunately, because my left side is about a cup or so smaller, I do have some gaping on that side, not noticeable under clothes because it is a molded cup bra, but I do bulge out of the top on ... my bigger size. I probably need to go up a cup size, but I have 5 bras in this size not realizing that when my breast tissue started to migrate back into place I would go up another size. All in all though, it is very comfy, very stylish, the lace on top does not show through clothes and it while it is a full coverage bra it does not come all the way up to your collar bones. Try it!

A nice bra with a fun print. Runs a bit tight in the band so I had to buy and extender.
