I love the colour and pattern, but it never really fit me very well. It is very well made though. The elastic and the straps are excellent quality.

I found this bra at a thrift store and loved the way it looked but saw the band size was too small. I picked up a band extender and tried it. It now fits (a little snug but comfortable) and looks fantastic. I think a 38E would be perfect

This is a tight fit for a 32 however it is slightly big in the band for me (I normally wear a 30)

I loved the first one of these so much, I searched out this discontinued color! I've copied over the review, but I thought it was worth mentioning that the center gore in this "meadow mauve" (seriously, it is rather an electric purple) is just about 3/16" wider at the top (the lower measurement is the same) The fabric "feels" less stretchy than the other, but measures the same.

This is one of the best fitting bras I've had. The fabric is a spacer fabric, which is thicker and concealing similar to a foam, but without the bulk. It is more flexible, so it conforms better to my smaller side. ... Unlike foam, this is fairly cool to wear (in the Southern US!) and air dries in about half the time of a foam contour type. There is a slight floral damask pattern to the fabric. It does not show even through clingy fabrics. There is a side sling inside the cup for shaping and forward projection.

The band is on the firm side. There is an extra boning under the armpit, and the band forward from this point is lined with sheer tricot, so it is firmer. This serves to prevent distortion of the wire. The band is powermesh with a similar pattern to the cups.

The wires are narrower than some (Panache..), and stop about an inch below the top of the side panel. I am short, and I would prefer the side panel be about 1/4" shorter, but at least the wire does not poke, and everything is contained.

The straps adjust from the front only, about 3/4 adjustment. I am 5'2", and I have the strap nearly all the way to the short end. I have sewing skills, so I could shorten them, but I haven't found it necessary. The straps are non-stretch in the front, only about 4" in the back is slightly stretchable. Comfortably firm, and they do NOT slip. There is a cute strap embroidery detail, and the hardware is goldtone, which gives a bit of detail to an otherwise plain bra. A great everyday bra, and there are frequently fashion colors available.

I like the side profile, which is rounded with uplift.

It's a full cup Candid. It doesn't give much lift and keeps breasts apart.
