This is a very sturdy bra and it has nice coverage. I love the gore, but I still have some minor spill-over toward the center. I notice it the most whenever I bend over or if I've been really active throughout the day.

I made a commitment to measure ALL of my bras for here before listing them (even though most will probably wind up selling on eBay rather than here) so here we go. This bra doesn't fit me anymore, but its has average-wide cups and runs about a whole band size big. The cups run about true to size.

Upsidedown: Fairly comfortable. Does induce back pain, but seems to be sliding down.
Wires: Slightly too narrow and too short.
Gore: Bottom half of gore is flat, but it then begins to tip upward. Gore is not not to wide or narrow. It is too short, but the breast spillage isn't it's fault.
Cups: Gaping about an inch below the inframmary fold. Quad-boobing everywhere.
Straps and Band: Straps are perfect for me (I'm really used to this style). Straps adjust perfectly. Band is riding up slightly in back.
Comfort: it makes my lower/mid back hurt and I don't know why. It feels slightly supportive, but I do not like the quad-boob. It makes me feel like I need to constantly adjust it.

Backwards: Pretty good fit. I could feel it sliding down, though.
Wires: Seem ok. Not uncomfortable or pressing. See about the right size.
Gore: Bottom of the gore is against chest. Slopes upward from there. Is sitting on breast, but I don't think that's the gore's fault. My breasts spill out, but that seems like the fit and not the gore itself.
Cups: Wrinkles at the bottom. Not touching the inframammary fold (1 inches-ish? didn't measure but felt), although at the bottom the material presses against my chest, wrinkling. My breasts are spilling out the tops of the cup.
Straps: The width of the straps are fine, they're about .5 inches wide and I like them. They adjust beautifully and sit close to my neck. The back seems to be riding up just a tiny bit in the back, although that might just be how I put it on.
Comfort: Lower back behinning to hurt. Moves too much and lets breasts spill out. I'm quad-boobing.
Overall: This bra is not the right fit for me.

Really low gore and decent amount of padding.
I adore the colors, and there is a little seam where the colors meet that I find adorable. The straps have metal incorporated in them and are very thin. The cups are smooth despite the padding. I also really like the intricate design of the back.

This is a beautiful bra that is unfortunately not in my size.
It has a great stretch and cute straps, but the low gore made it impossible for me to wear. I did not wear it long enough to see if it would stretch out.

This is a really cute bra which providea a lot of pushup. However, it is much too small for me so it is hard to speak about the fit of the bra as it would pertain to someone who is actually this size. I will note however, that it seems to be tighter in the band than most of my other 34 band bras (even flipping it upside down to minimize the effect of the too small cup).

I LOVE the fabric and memory foam lining in this bra! Obviously the band is too big, as it is a sister size to my usual size (30FF UK). It makes my girls feel safe and cozy. It also helps that there is a matching gater belt and panty to go with it when I want to spice it up to be sexy for my hubby. There was a matching model with all over lace, but I prefer the smooth cups so that I can wear it under any shirt.

This is a lovely, well-built bra that is as comfortable as a push-up bra could be! The size just isn't right for me =)

Very comfortable bra. Only thing is the band is too big. I would have to alter it. I own two like these. Very cute style. I have it in black as well

Love this bra, super comfortable and soft. Fits good never had any problems with it except for the print which is cute but hard to wear with things if bra straps show. I just did not like how the cheetah print straps showed when wearing specific clothing. Besides that loved it!

This bra is super comfortable as well as super soft. Fits perfectly and no wires poke into unlike many other bras. Straps come unconnected in the back to turn into a crossback bra. They have never accidentally came undone before. No stains on it just a few of the lint balls along the inside wire up by the armpits.

I could not say one bad thing about this bra, it was by far my favorite bra and a beautiful color. It is super soft and fits great! Only reason I am selling it is because it no longer fits due to my breast reduction I recently had.

Why I bought this bra in the first place was because the color and the style. Something cute but simple that I could wear with almost anything because if its light color. Did not wear often. It fit very nicely I had no problems with it.

This bra is super comfortable, I did not wear it enough for it to stretch or thin out. This bra has a little more padding than just a thin layer but fits nicely.

Before I had known to adjust myself properly, the band was too tight, the gore did not go all the way down, the bottom of the cup was filled properly, but there was a gap in the top of the cup. The straps are too wide apart.
After adjusting properly, I found that the band was too large, the gore still did not fit properly, and the gap on the top was almost gone, but still there.

I thought this was my best and most comfortable bra, but now that I know how to properly wear bras and where the underwire is supposed to be, I realize that it's not my best in regards to breast health. One of my inframammary folds is a bit higher than the other, and I noticed that this bra causes that breast to be squished downwards even when I scoop.
I do think it has stretched out in the band. Even so, it was and is very comfortable for an underwire bra. I don't feel the wires poking me, but maybe that's becuase I need a smaller band size. I will say, when I first purchased it, it was comfortable then as far as wires and straps are concerned.

The cups are smaller in this bra than other VS bras of the same size. Otherwise, it's not bad.

The cups do this weird thing where they pull away from my breasts and curve out. This shows under clothes. The bottom of the cup is also not projected enough for me, so it wrinkles and there's a bit of the orange in a glass effect.

Tl; dr - very pretty, not made by Satan's elves, stretchy like Freya.
After finding out how a bra should actually fit a little over a year ago (was correctly ~32e), I shunned Victoria's Secret because we all know they're of the debbil. Well, in that year and change, I got a little body wide beer induced tissue migration, and those 34e bras that I ordered online trying to figure out my size and never got around to rehoming, that used to have too loose bands and too big cups, suddenly fit. So, one night, after squeezing myself into an old EM bra that I loved that used to ... fit, I found myself at the mall with extreme pain, mega quadboob, and a little free time.
So, that's how I came to wander into the lair of the beast. And I'm glad I did. I found this bra in the clearance boxes in the back (I hadn't even realized VS carried 34e). I tried it on, and found it to be a very nice molded bra with pretty details (although if this is a demi, I'd hate to see a full coverage). I think I found the holy grail: a VS bra with a tacking gore! At $46 off its original price, its purchase was a no-brainer, and my girls left VS much happier than they went in. I don't know how many ladies knowledgable of bra fitting can say that, and I think it was worth $16, even once the band inevitably stretches. Does a stretchy band automatically equal poor quality? I don't think Freya fans would agree with that statement.
Edit: I've now had it for 2 weeks, and while sitting, I noticed a familiar shoulder and neck pain that only means 1 thing: too loose of a band causing the straps to take too much weight. I'm out of town and I've been switcing it off with my Freya Untamed and a Maidenform, so I've never worn it 2 days in a row. In only week 2 of owning this bra, I am already on the second row of hooks. Kinda sad, because this bra is very pretty. :,(
But, that is what VS (and even high quality brands like Freya) bras are known for, so it's not like no one saw this coming. I have not experienced any of the gapping that is supposed to accompany a VS bra if one is of a mutant size that VS carries. I like this bra so much I bought 3 more, and have had no issues with stretching in the 2 weeks I've owned them (I know, not a significant amount of time).
