I have to say, among the five Fauve bras I own, this model has a snugger band. Sure, I can stretch it to 30", but it does take a little more effort than the other models. Unlike the other models, I can wear it on the loosest hook and don't feel the need to wear it on the tightest set. So I can definitely say the band is snugger than the usual Fauve bras, while still fitting a true 30" ribcage comfortably (mine is 27").

The top of the cup is not as open, so I do have quadboobs when I pull my shoulders back. However, I think this ... situation is easily rectified by cutting the strip placed on the lace on top of the cup. That will make it less rigid.

The wire width is a little too wide for me, but it does not affect the fit so much. The gore is wide and tall, not as tall as Panache Sienna, thus it sits on my breast tissue. But I do have close set breasts.

The straps are fully adjustable, but there's embroidery on the front half of the straps, so you will need to tug a little when you come to that part.

The shape is perky pointy, I feel supported, and it does not give me the upside down 7 shape by the end of the day like Curvy Kate unpadded bras.
