I really like this bra. It fits my shape well and it is comfortable. The cut is very similar to the Elomi Caitlyn, the Elomi Cleo Side Support, the Elomi Jasmin and the Goddess Keira.

I've found the band of the Goddess Rose to be stretchier than the band of those above bras. It is a bit loose, but not too loose for me. It fits me similar to my Panache Tango II Balc. in 42 GG and to my Elomi Smoothing 3911 in 42 G on the tightest hook.

I've also found that the wires of this bra are softer than the wires that are ... in use in the Elomi Caitlyn and in the Elomi Cleo Side Support in the same size (40 GG UK/40 J US). They bend under stress from the band. Unstretched the wires are 20 cms wide, stretched the wires go to 26 cms width. Since I need very wide wires the Goddess Rose has been my salvation.

I battle with the problem that when the cup fits the wires are too narrow and when the wires fit the cup is too big. Cupwise I need a 40 GG/H (UK), wire wise I need a 38 JJ/40 J/40 JJ (UK).

As the wires of the Goddess Rose are softer then those of the Elomi bras they dig less into my sides. Yet they are stable and supportive enough for a bra in this size. Unlike other bras I've found no negative effects on the cup or on stability from the stretched cups.

My only gripe with this bra is that it is fugly. It comes only in black and nude (urrrgh) with outdated lace (double urggh). Consequently I have vaque plans to take this bra apart to get at the cut and at the wires and try my hand at sewing my own bras. Seems to me the only way to get my hands on a bra where I really really like the look and that actually fits me.

I really liked how sturdy this bra is unfortunately this bra has no stretch in the cup and is sewn so sturdily that it's about the same size as the old Cabarnet 38H I have that is stretchy. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> If you normally have very stretchy cups in a favorite bra your going to have to go up a few cup sizes in this bra. Otherwise the band is super sturdy and feels comfy since I measure at a 37 I order 38's and I have this band on the second hook and it fit snuggly with enough room for two fingers. Unfortunately since the cups were smaller in this bra I could not get the gore to lay flat. If you have narrow roots I think someone would find this bra to be to wide in the wire and bottom half of the cup. Not a lot of room for the side or top of a full bust I think also.

After years (decades, even) of spilling out of whatever DDD+ bra would sorta fit me, I've recently begun trying to figure out what size and type of bra works for my plus-size, full-cup figure. Of my handful of new bras (ranging in size from 42GG to 42K) this one is my all-around favorite. It feels supportive and doesn't poke or squeeze me anywhere. The seamed cups are made of non-stretchy lace, which give this bra a strong structure and great support for my heavy breasts.

The bra is fine. It's just too big around for me and cup too small

I stuck to Goddess bras for 12 years. I was sized wayyy back then and told that I had to have a Goddess bra. I was thankful when they came out with prettier, pared-down bras like Keira. This bra is very comfortable, supportive, and not bad looking, either. This bra lasts a long time, also. Washes well. The past few months I've noticed all my bras (36Is in goddess - Rose and @Keira) were not fitting right - boobs busting out of the top and bottom. I was finally sized for the first time in 12 years and told I am a 34J. I was told Goddess bras come in a a 34 band but they are still designed for women with a wider frame than me and wider breasts.

This is the most heavy-duty bra I've ever worn. It is a 4 piece cut-and-sew. Very stiff lace cups. I guess not the most comfortable bra in the world. Really supportive band with 2-hook back. Even though it feels kind of stiff, I like this bra a lot because it's full-coverage cups. Although my boobs don't quite fill the cups . I get wrinkles of empty lace cup material by the gore. My boobs are too wide set to fit the cups properly.

Feels nice, but didn't work for me. I got this because I need the straps to come in more towards the center. They do, more than my other bras, but I'm starting to realize I might be somewhere between 36E and F (UK). I don't fill the cups out enough, so there are major wrinkles.

It also gave me a pointier shape, but like I said, I don't fill the cups out all the way, so who knows how accurate that is.

This was my first bra following my first proper measuring. Compared to my older bras, this is a dream to wear. However, having purchased others, this one now has some notable issues. 1) The cup is just way too wide. It does not provide proper side breast support because of that. 2) Because of the wide wires and slightly larger gore spacing, it makes the breasts splay wide. So, while it is decently comfortable, this bra makes the breasts look older, saggier, and slightly unattractive. 3) The lift you want? It's not there. Overall, the bra is nice looking and works well for a lounge bra, but it's not good for most other uses, in my opinion.
