The band is not particularly stretchy so it was very firm at first (although not to the point of discomfort), but it loosened a little within a day of wear. I usually prefer something with a little more lift, so I don't really like wearing this one with teeshirts or collared shirts that much. It's really comfortable to sit around in and I very much enjoy the height of the underwires under the armpits.

Update: Over time, the shape has become even less desirable. It's too low for me and the cups are less sturdy than I'd like. The band is also now a bit large for me (due to my measurements changing) and my boobs fall towards the centre of the bra, creating a quad-boob of sorts.
