My Stats: Tall, moderately narrow roots, low set. Vertical and horizontal parameter measurements are very similar. Functionally FOT due to tall roots. Firm, and self-supporting. Centre-full with little outer volume.

Band: Fits closer to a 28 band, a tight and firm band with a comfortable width

Wires: Aggressive! Thickest, stiffest wires I have ever felt. These things are industrial strength. I like the shape of them, which is a UU shape, but I found the gore very painful instantly. They seem narrow and tall, but I haven't measured them yet.

Cups: Good depth with immediate projection. Four-piece construction with ... three vertical pieces making a nice round "bowl" shape, and one horizontal top piece. I found the top of the cups expects a lot more volume than I have, and the top lace has a bit of space/gapping.

Straps: Good location for my shoulder width, fully adjustable.

Fabric: Soft and comfortable but no stretch in the cups. The embroidery pattern on the outside of the cups is really pretty.

Fit: Fits me well in cup depth, but the cup either needs to be shorter or darted at the top because I have some extra fabric there where my breast volume ends before the cup does.

Overall Impression: The only way I can wear this bra is if I take it to the tool bench and bend the wires, which I will probably need a vice and pliers to do. The gore was very painful due to the stiffness and thickness of the cables - sorry, I mean wires. I think the cups are also a bit too tall for me, I have low set and tall roots but the shape is not a good match for me along the top. I can't return this bra and I do like it appearance-wise, so I think I'll try to bend the wires and take in the extra fabric on the top to hopefully make it work for me.
