This bra is pretty amazing. Nothing has yet matched my immediate projection AND narrow roots AND given me so much beautiful lift and shaping. There are two things about this bra that, for me are not dealbreakers, but are things others should be aware of - 1) The band is STRETCHY. I started the day on the third hook and am now on the first hook. I will happily alter if need be, but knowing this as I now do, I would have sized down to a 30. This is saying a lot, because 32's are typically TIGHT on me. 2) The straps will not go any longer - not a problem for me but for anyone else it could be. I mean very literally that the straps are at maximum length, there is no adjustment left. If you have low set breasts or are taller than the average American woman (64" or thereabouts, I'm 65" with a long torso) you could have a frustrating problem. Now that that's out of the way, back to the pros! My breasts completely fill these cups, including when I am sitting. The cup is an E and I usually take an F, so it's on the larger side for an E, meaning perfect for me as I'm a little deflated from yo-yo weight gain/loss over the years. The center gore is fairly high but comfortable on me - my breasts have some separation. The bra is moulded and therefore padded throughout, but not by a lot... it's like an extra thick lining that hides nipples and provides fantastic shaping. My breasts when unsupported are pendulous (see my shape set http://bra.pe/KCho/ for an idea of what I mean) and this bra picks them right up, when the reverse is often true. Even when I am sitting they stay supported - there is none of that annoying sinking feeling and breast-to-torso contact I so dislike. The lace overlay is really pretty, and gives this otherwise t-shirt bra a nice feminine touch. Under the slinkiest material I own the pattern does not show through. I don't know that I'd ever pay the ridiculous American retail price for this bra ($179, um no....) but I'd buy it again for the price I've paid for other mid-range bras.

Love this fit. Two trifling complaints: 1) The band is STRETCHY. Would have sized down to a 30. 2) The straps will not go any longer - not a problem for me but for anyone else it could be.
