When I put it on, I thought it was too good to be true.

The band is tight enough. In a perfect world, it would have run just a smidge tighter, but it's a minor quibble. (I just need to start on the middle hooks to get an ideal fit. But it's a close enough fit that I will be happy to alter the band a bit once it's stretched.)

The cups are wide enough -- seriously, like someone measured my left boob and then made the underwire custom. I am not even exaggerating, y'all.

The gore tacks. It is beautifully narrow.

The cups essentially fit. There is a teeny bit of quad boob at the top inside corner of my left (larger) breast. But with the cup's open construction, it just kind of sits there under the lace (it's not enough to push the lace out of position), with no particular need to *be* anywhere else. There is some gaping in the small cup, but given the padded material, it's actually not enough to warrant using my insert (and using my insert on the small side is the rule rather than the exception).

The left strap is comfortable. The right is a tad uncomfortable because I shorten it, so it rubs against my armpit. (Maybe I will try it with the insert after all, just to see if it alleviates that problem.) Originally, I was concerned that the partially adjustable straps didn't adjust quite long enough. Which is probably still a valid issue for some folk. However, for me, tightening the band a notch rectified the situation (so I felt like the band was doing more work and the straps doing less).

The material is soft and comfortable. The seams did not show through my thin tank top today.

Also, after a full day's wear, I am more impressed with it rather than less. There were times I became literally unaware of either the weight of my breasts or the fact that I was wearing a bra.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner.

This bra is not owned any more
