This bra is my best fit so far (now that I've gone up about a cup size). It is pretty comfortable. I can't remember feeling so secure in a bra. It is comfortable after 8 hours of wear and doesn't feel like it's digging in. The band is snug but not painful, the shoulder straps just the right length and I can wear it all day with ease. I recently went to a bra boutique to get re-sized and this was the bra I walked out with. It's a good T-shirt bra that you can wear everyday and has a nice, subtle embellishment with the lace at the side. I got the black colorway with the grey and black lace trim.
My only issue with the bra is that since it's wide in the cup, it tends to distribute my breasts differently, so they don't seem as rounded as they do in my Freya bras (which give a really nice round shape). I would recommend the Amelia if you want a comfortable, serviceable, every-day bra that holds the girls securely and isn't overly plain. If you like the "orange-in-a-glass" or "cupcake-on-a-plate" look, this bra won't give you as much of a rounded, front and center projection as some other brands will. The shape is more east-west than my Freya bras. I feel like it minimizes rather than projects.
Overall, it's a great, basic bra that you can wear with most of your wardrobe. I bought it because I was starting to have back pain from the new cup size and this bra really helps to minimize the discomfort in my back, so I'd also recommend it for anyone with large breasts who needs a bra that will give really good support.
If it helps, these were my measurements when I got this bra: http://bra.pe/QHhG/
