I really want to like this bra (and I do, but not quite enough) but it doesn't fit well enough and there's some flaws to it. It has this really cool construction in the band, it has two 2-inch wide elastics that are firm (yet stretchy) and that provides equal tension throughout the band. AH-MA-ZING! Super-comfy, although it's a little too big for me. I have to hook it on the tightest setting and just one eye tighter would be perfect I believe. They don't do this bra in bands smaller than 32" though. If they did, a 30 would be perfect for me in this.

The underwires are ... crazy wide for a 32F! I've never seen anything like it! Yeah sure, I often have to deal with too wide underwires (almost always) but this is just ridiculous. I couldn't look past it. Another huge flaw is the fact that the underwires are super-springy. I have a picture illustrating this.

I also don't like the way they've attached the band to this bra. It would've been better if they sewed the band on in an angle, that way the band would sit lower. Lots of British bras have this construction and I don't like it. The boning is alright, nothing spectular but it holds up fine.

I think this design has potential because the 2-inch wide elastics are super smart! Such a shame that the execution and grading of it was so terrible... I don't think I could recommend this to anyone, not even those with really wide roots because the underwires are way too springy for anyone, no matter how small or big your bust is.
