This used to be my perfect fitting bra until I suddenly grew out of the cups a short while ago.

My favorite features are the height of the wings and sides of the cups, so that it covers all my breast tissue on the sides (no constant tugging and adjusting!), and the seamless top edge of the cup, so it doesn't cut into the top of my breasts or look like a bowl on my chest like many bras do. The cups are also fairly tall (and I'm pretty short) so the bra fits like I imagine a full-coverage bra would. The band fits snugly without being too tight ... and I've never had to fasten it tighter than the first column. I find it overall very secure and comfortable.

The bra has a very pretty lace overlay and looks fantastic underneath all my shirts, even thin and tight ones. The shape is mostly round with a slight peak in the middle, which I find very attractive. I will be hard-pressed to find a fitting bra I love as much as this one.

This bra is just beautiful. It's also very, very soft, and comfortable even though it's so pretty. The cups are made of radiant orange polyester lining covered in bright fuchsia (nylon) lace. This bra fits "like a glove", but in this case that's not all that exciting. While this does indeed fit according to the basic bra fit checklist, these cups give me absolutely 0 uplift, and I think they actually flatten me out. (The cups are shaped just like the Ongossamer Mesh Contour bra's cups.) It's not that they're allowing "escape" from the sides, as much as they simply don't pick up the bottoms of ... my boobs to form a rounded, uplifted look for my décolletage. I wouldn't mind a more narrow center gore, either, because my rib-cage is so small. I used to think that center pull straps were the secret to "uplift" but I've learned that, for me, wider straps, no matter how frustrating they can be fit-wise, really do help keep breasts front and center. Full band bras really fit best, so I think I've finally learned that floating cups just don't give me a good look. I've been spoiled by Panache and Cleo!
