Great lift; forward pointing of breast. Gives a slightly pointed look which to me gives the breast a sexy look.The bra has held it's shape after several washings. Really attractive bra.

This bra is extremely too small in the cups for me. However, it is currently the best fitting bra I own.

Gave a really wide appearance and didn't offer phenomenal support - pretty average "department store bra" look. Underwire popped out within a month of wearing.

I have nothing but postitive things to say about this bra. Well, i guess one thing to mention is that it does have a bit of a pointy look that can be noticable under clothing, so maybe if you're conscious of that this isn't the bra for you.
This is my go-to work bra. The coverage is wonderful and it has deep, roomy cups. I feel held in and "locked and loaded"--I'm not worrying about needing adjust my bust at all. It gives great projection and uplift. It stays comfortable throughout my day. The wires don't stab or poke anywhere and the sides are high enough to hold ... everything in without being uncomfortable under my arms.
I would really recommend this to anyone looking to realign migrated breast tissue, or anyone looking for modest coverage, or just a good, sturdy, reliable bra.
By the way, the band is a bit tight, I'm usually a 30 and this works for me. It stretches to 31. If you're closer to a 32 ribcage you may want to have an extender on hand.

Cute bra, but I need a larger band size at my current weight.

The bra: Beautiful appearance - a fine mesh cup with a smooth lace overlay, fine dots along the band and a tiny diamanté flower at the center bow. The straps are centered, thin and non-stretch.
The fit: The band fit really well, but the cups were a a bit too large. We will try again in a smaller size.Updated on Mar 21, 2014 Flag this

I received this and a white version on Reddit's RandomActsOfBras, so both are gently used. As such, band measurements might be a bit off, although neither seems heavily used to me.
Talk about full coverage! this bra comes very high up, it shows under anything that doesn't end at my neck. This is probably great for ladies that need more coverage, and its great for not having a top seam under tight shirts, but its just too much for me. I feel like im wearing a very sexy vest =P its also too large in the cup for me slightly, right at the front of the cup it ... wrinkles. I think it probably needs someone with more projection than me, perhaps more full breasts in general.
Even so, this is a very comfy bra. Nothing digs and i feel supported. The shape is decidedly "retro", another no for me. It doesn't go into crazy pointy territory, but its very close to my naked shape, and just not something i'm comfortable with. part of this probably has to do with it being too deep; i think id get a rounder shape with less depth. The gore doesn't sit flush at the very top, but does everywhere else, which confuses me but doesn't cause any discomfort. The band has 3 hooks, feels snug without being awful, and didnt ride up on me at all.
Note: this has a very curved band. i took some pictures both clasped and undone to show, i dont know how that affects fit but its worth mentioning.
Looks wise, this is very classic black lace and cream mesh. There's a small bow and flower gem on the gore, very cute, and the band fabric has little dots (harder to see on the black bra). I'll be passing these on via Reddit, sad to see them go!

I received this and a black version on Reddit's RandomActsOfBras, so both are gently used. As such, band measurements might be a bit off, although neither seems heavily used to me.
All fit details of this are the same as the black. The only small difference is that one hook on this has been slightly bent out of shape, not enough to affect use but it is visible if you look for it. the band on this is a hair tighter than the black, its probably been less used.
As it also doesnt fit, I'll be passing it on via Reddit, sad to see them go!This bra is not owned any more

This is a very pretty bra. I have had this for a couple of years but really on wear when me and the hubby go out. Love the matching panties also.

I wore this bra for years, albeit with an extender since it starts out so tight. It's good as full coverage bras go, aside from the ridiculously tight band. My primary complaint is the height of the gore and neckline, both of which really restrict the sort of neckline I can wear (this may just be a full-coverage thing). It has amazing projection for the size. The wires seem to be about right, maybe a tiny bit small at the most. I ultimately ditched this bra because I sustained a pectoral injury somehow, and the high armholes aggravated it. (Months later, the injury is still there, so this bra is still not an option.)
