I got this at Nordstrom Rack for a bargain (over half off!) without realizing that it was the very same bra I had been lusting over for months! However, I was soon disappointed because it has not lived up to my expectations.

Pros: The band is very nice, comfortable, and firm. Also, it is a gorgeous bra overall - the embroidery is beautiful and not at all itchy. The straps aren't stretchy and are close-set enough that they don't slip at all. The bra itself is pretty comfortable.

Cons: The padding on this bra is not sufficient enough to prevent "headlights," nor is it stiff enough to provide a decent shape. I end up with a squished profile, not much lift, and less projection than I have without a bra. Also, the gore is too high for me and digs into my sternum. The cups are made of a stretchy material that has started to pill after less than ten washes. Since the cups are stretchy, I cannot do anything more than walk without bouncing all over the place.

This is a beautiful, well-made bra, but it just doesn't provide the shape or support that I desire from an everyday bra. I have the white one and it would be a gorgeous addition to a bridal set, but it is not suitable for everyday use in my opinion.

This bra is not owned any more
