Only worn for a few minutes to try on and review. Bought for $25.19 online (free shipping & returns) from asos.com in February 2014.
Wires - The wire width was probably narrow enough, but the wires were tall enough to poke a little under my arms.
Comfort - Pretty good except the armhole is too small in the front - the cups cut into my armpits uncomfortably. They also make it hard to reach across my body - like when I try to pull a shirt off over my head. The straps are wide-set and fall off my shoulders. I only have two bras ... that are close to fitting, and neither of them are soft-cup. The gore on this soft-cup seems so high compared to them, and I notice it touching my sternum, which is a little irritating, like an itch.
Fit - The band feels comfortably snug, but I can fit my fist under it. The center gore tacks. The cups gape a lot on both sides at the top, but I think the cups are overall just too tall for me. The gaping isn't noticeable under clothing. There isn't a fold at the bottom of the cup, but there is a little wrinkling at the bottom on both sides. The wires do seem to stay in the proper place in the fold. Both sides have empty space at the top corners where my armpit/boob crease is.
Under clothing - Not the best shape (for my preferences) but I would be OK with it if the fit was right. The seams are not completely invisible but not too noticeable.
Overall - I was tempted to keep this bra because the fit seems so close...but I really haven't tried many bras. I hope I can find better. If I had more experience with alterations, I would have liked to adjust the underarm height and strap placement to be more comfortable.
