Ugh. This is an unimpressive bra. I like to write positive reviews, but I'm overwhelmed with negativity regarding this bra.

Cons:
1. The gore is too wide. Great for wide-set breasts, but not my close set, center-full breasts.
2. The wings are a single layer of unsupportive mesh.
3. The straps are more narrow and less supportive than the straps I adore on my 30FF and 30G Curvy Kates.
4. Assembly errors in the lace decoration yield scratchy lace on skin. These errors, from my perspective, form irritating, multi-layer, fabric points under each breast.
5. If the gore (.9") were more narrow, the cups would fit very well. Today, they produce significant puckers on each side of the gore because the gore can't lay flat on my sternum. It sits atop both breasts. Ouch.

Pros:
1. Low wings
2. Shorter wire-no poking in my armpit
3. Smooth presentation under thin knits
4. Relatively thin, soft foam cups
5. Cups did not collapse with my projected pair

This feels like a $20 bra, and it is returning to Amazon. Sigh.

  It's so weird. I have the undies and they are so soft and smooth. They are my favorites actually.

  I love my Ellace bra, but the undies are scratchy. Weird, indeed :-)

  The undies were $4 on Amazon, but I resisted because of the Ellace undies. I will reconsider. Thanks, cupandahalf :-)

• Yeah I find the Ellace undies way more scratchy! What is with that??? Lol.

• It is the sewing errors that are scratchy on Smoothie: they form a point under each breasts. Otherwise, I now agree with you: the lace is smooth and soft.

• Ugh. Sewing errors. While CK is so great in depth for me, their quality aggravates me.

  Autocorrect frustrates me ;-)

  Just as a correction, you probably mean "wide-set" and not "splayed" breasts. Being narrow, centre-full and close-set does not exclude having splayed roots, that's my shape.

• spacenb So true. Splayed are not necessarily wide-set. Mine are splayed, too. Gravity :-)
