I bought this bra first in 32HH, which was way too big in the cup. I exchanged it into H-cup and this is the result.
Pros:
- very pretty
- soft material, feels good against the skin
- sturdy band, true to size
- natural, understated shape
- good support
Cons:
- cups are bell-like and deep, and there's something strange in their shape. The highest point of the breast is below the nipple => profile is droopy. Not by much and it doesn't show under a thicker shirt, but still. I wouldn't call this shape "balconette".
- Won't suit top-full breasts as the top of the cup is tight. Quadraboob is ... a hairsbreadth away!
- cups are spaced out wide.
- the underwires are still quite high.
Despite this bra not being a perfect fit, I'll keep it. It's not bad by any means, just not perfect á la Freya Lacey.

Edit: The Elsa softens considerably after a few washes and seems to shape itself according to my breasts. Result: it's REALLY comfortable! Okay, so the shape is not my preferred EM perky, but the bra is so wonderful to wear that I'll forgive that little detail.
