Didn't fit
I was sized into this bra by Lane Bryant, so obviously it was not my size at all. Way too small in the cups, way too big in the band.
The bra got a lot of wear for between 6 and 9 months before I had the sense to try larger cup sizes against the advice of several Lane Bryant sales associates. It held up okay to machine washing, but tugging the cups back on the sides to hold all of my breast tissue has slightly torn the gore away from the underwire channel on the right side over time.
Like all of my Cacique bras, the band stretched significantly after the first handful of wears. Like, if it was really tight when I took it home it was falling off of me by the end of the week.
Not a terrible bra, but it isn't really shaped for the women who would fit into it. The wings are too low and allow tissue spillage while the cups are quite narrow. Women who wear a 40 band but have only a DDD chest are simply not going to be able to put all of their side tissue into cups like this. They are situated too narrowly on the very front of the chest.
Due to their consistent low quality materials and poor design I can't at all recommend Cacique bras in general, especially at the prices charged in most stores for them. But, if you happen to like Cacique for some reason, this isn't a terrible bra. Just don't expect it to last you very long unless you are very very gentle with it.This bra is not owned any more
