Well made bra. Lace is not scratchy to me. The cups are very open on top. Would be good for full on top shapes.

I got this bra in trade on r/braswap. Apparently it's the Bare Necessities house brand. It's a balcony bra with beige molded cups and a lace overlay. It's pretty, but not my unicorn.

The quality is surprisingly good given how inexpensive they are compared with other brands I've tried. The spots where the straps meet the bra are a bit messy, but other than that the seaming looks good. The lace feels soft and durable, and the inside of the cups smooth. It's clear that some effort was made to make this bra comfortable - the wire channel, straps, and parts of the band ... that touch the skin feel extra soft and cushy without being too thick. It SHOULD be comfortable - but after wearing it for an afternoon to assess, the lace rubs under my arm on the smaller side and the band irritates my back.

Fit wise, it's ok. The gore tacks. The band is about an inch longer than I need, but doesn't ride up. At first glance the cups looked huge, but they're almost perfect for my larger boob. On my smaller boob, there's pretty obvious gaping at the top of the cup, as has been the case with 99% of the bras I've tried on lately. I'm starting to find this depressing. The asymmetry seems more obvious now than it's ever been. So may bras would have looked so nice if only they were closer to the same size. Unfortunately, the gaping on the smaller side causes the top of the cup to stick out in an obvious line under my shirt. No bueno. Even on my larger side the lace at the top doesn't quite lie flat. The scalloped lace under the cups is a bit of a problem for me as well. When I sit down, my high tummy makes it flip up. It doesn't interfere with comfort, but it's not a great look.
