This is a push up bra,it has a big padded shape in the bottom of the cup, allowing for decent enough cleavage. However, on me, the gore doesn't tack, it sits about 2 inches from my body. The band is a nice fit on me, a girl with a 25" underbust. The cup gapes in the centre to the top. The straps are well set and do not slip down.

The cups are very shallow and wide. The band is very firm. More like a 26DD/E. The straps are a little too separate for me, but I have a relatively narrow frame compared with other people in my size range, so I guess it won't be a problem for other people.

I usually find that Marks & Spencer bras are too shallow and wide to fit me, but this one is an exception. There's some padding on the bottom of the cups and the wires are quite short and narrow, while the gore is extremely low - just a small bit of fabric connecting the cups. This works really well for me as my boobs are close-set; I generally find that the gores on most bras are too high and wide. On the negative side I do tend to spill out of the centre and the cups probably are a bit too small and shallow to be ideal. It ... also doesn't offer a huge amount of support and my boobs have a tendency to bounce around unfettered when I'm wearing it. Fortunately I'm small-busted so this isn't as much of a problem as it would be if I were larger. Overall it's certainly not a perfect fit but it's one that works reasonably well for my shape, and so far I've yet to find a better one (although this probably says more about the ill-fitting bras I've tried so far than it does about this particular bra!).

This bra is a very pretty black lacy bra! It has a pretty tight band for being a 28, but that was easily fixed with a bras extender on the tightest clasp. The cups are just slightly the wrong shape for me and my shallow breasts. The bottom of the cup works very well for my shape and it overall very comfortable (with the extender)! I will keep this bra and try it on during my 'big boob' time of the month and see if it works around that time. If it doesn't, then it will need a new home.

This is a higher quality M&S bra. I can feel it in the fabric and the way that it is stitched together. However, my only complaint that the bra itself is labelled as a "28DD" but I think it fits closer to a 26FF/28F because I can't really seem to fill it out at all, and I'm wearing 28E's now for the most part. (I generally need cups around 8 inches of depth, this one measures approximately 8.3 {updated without the wires}). I think it would work best for someone who is narrow, as my breasts are slightly wide.
I like the Satin/Silky fabric; ... it is very comfortable and the cups are lined nicely. I also really like vertical seams that are suppose to lift the breast and on the side, you can see part of a sling being sewn from the strap, but probably hidden internally in the cups.
The band is also very firm. It is typical of M&S to have very tight bands.
As with most balconettes, the center gore is a bit too tall for my boobs and is a bit painful there, but I think it would work better for someone who could really fill this bra out.
