The underwire fits perfectly, but there's a little bit too much fabric around the cups, which makes it look funny under thin shirts. Probably better for someone who's never been pregnant/nursing.

This bra is very pretty, and it feels well-made, but it just doesn't work for me. It's fractionally too closed-in on top (which I can just about tolerate), and it's a tiny bit too shallow at the bottom (which I could put up with) but the shape it gives me is just horrendous - only one (very small) step short of the full Madonna effect. It will do for days (like today) when all my other bras are in the wash, but I wince every time I catch a glimpse of my reflection!

Comfy right away, lined wires, pretty contrasting lace. Straps are set too far apart for me, cutting into my arm pits. Cups are a little too full in bottom. The piece of wing up to the non-boned side support is firm, non-stretchy fabric. The remainder of the wing and band is stretchy mesh. Tall, narrow gore nice for close set breasts and sits nice and flat. If your nipples do not sit too high, the bra gives good modesty coverage while being very sexy too.

This bra is incredibly pretty, but I have now taken the wires out and am using it as a sleep bra (hammock!) Although the cups were correct, the wire couldn't hold its position. An expensive mistake, we live and learn

This is very pretty bra. It is amazing in the teal color! However, I seem to be between sizes on this one. I have both a 32E and and 32DD. The 32DD is just a little small in the cup. It doesn't quite cut me into a quad boob…but almost. The wire on the DD also doesn't quite come back far enough. I actually have a pinch mark on one of my breasts from the cup being just a little too small. Unfortunately, the E cup is just a bit too big and leaves extra material at the top of the cup near where the strap attaches. With both, the band is just too big. On the tightest hooks, I can pull the bra up over my breasts with minimal effort. If I thought there was a chance of it fitting me in a 30" band, I would try, but it just doesn't seem worth the hassle with the way the cup sizing seems to be, as far as my body is concerned.

- Band is comfortable (2-finger fit)
- Underwire is about a half inch wider than my breast root
- Straps again seem too far apart and dig into the front of my armpit/shoulder when I move my arms forward
- The bottom part of the cups seems to fit okay, but there is a lot of wrinkling at the top, and the top edge does not lie flat
- The gore seems to go too high and is uncomfortable at the top
- The shape is a bit more “pointy” than I would like

I found the straps to be too wide set, and the mesh to be very itchy after only 10 mins or so of wear. would fit someone with fuller upper breasts better i think.

I tried this on in a cup size larger than I normally take because I'm still figuring out my size but this was pretty roomy in the cup. I didn't like the look of the straps stitched over the cups in a sling type shape - it made my breasts look more projected than they already are. I had to pull the straps tighter to see how it might fit with a smaller cup and it looked okay from the front but when I turned to the side, I got the pointy boob effect. Band fit pretty well though (not too tight or stretchy) and quality of the bra was great and looked very pretty (in the grey colorway).

Too big in the cups for me. I think the model is too projected to fit me well even in a smaller size. It's very pointy. You'd think it was a bra for Madonna. Only put it on briefly but my impression was that it was of good quality but a little boring. This was the beige version.
