    This bra definitely gives me more of a retro look than I was expecting (likely because my breasts are fuller on the bottom and don't have as much tissue on top, the half padding lends itself to a more pointy or bullet shaped silhouette) but that's not necessarily a bad thing... just means I won't be wearing it under t-shirts as often as I would button-downs and structured blouses. That being said the seam that runs horizontally across the bra attaching the padding to the lacy upper-cup is quite visible through shirts as well.
    The quality of this bra seems excellent and it really is lovely to look at. Wish it fit me a little better, but it's not off enough to return it.

  2. This bra has great lift! It runs a whole cup size small, but once adjusted for that, is about average, I think. I had read elsewhere that the band was especially firm, and I see that it measured a bit small, but it certainly didn't feel tighter than normal. The gated back was very comfortable.

    As the t-shirt pic shows, the seam between the padded and unpadded portions of the bra is VERY thick. It will show through all but the thickest fabrics. This looked great under a sweater.

    The other detailing on the bra has a nice luxe feel. The hardware is rose gold and the whole thing is kind of retro glam.

    Besides the seaming, the other negative for me, was that the apex was a bit too far out. Again it looked nice under a sweater, but too east/west with anything thinner. Because I rarely wear thick clothing, I will reluctantly be sending this one back.

    This bra is not owned any more
