Super comfortable bra, feels like nothing on. The wires were the perfect shape, tracing with no dig anywhere. The low center front makes allowance for those who don't have a lot of space between their boobs. (I'm slightly under two finger widths) Outer wire also ends at a comfortable length, and the straps are center-pull. I'm petite, around 5'0", so all of these details work beautifully for me.
I tried this on suggestion from Nordstrom, which uses the +4 rule. I thought this was perfect until I wore it for a bit and it wiggled a bit too much for my liking. I started doing a lot more ... research shortly after and discovered the +2/straight ribcage measurement methods, which I think would probably be more appropriate for me because I need all the support I can get. The unstretched band is almost the same as my ribcage measurement, and the band stretches extremely easily. I also think a DDD cup honestly deserves three hooks.
The convertible straps are awesome, but only if you attach them correctly (it's hard to describe), or they'll just slip out. They only convert in the back, but still very versatile.
I like this bra a lot, I'm fairly sure I'd absolutely love it if I got it in the right band, though I think they don't make it in anything smaller than a thirty. The surplus in that size could probably be remedied with low-elasticity reinforcement on the band.
