This. Is. My. Favorite.
I love this bralette!! It's super comfortable, supportive, and creates a nicely rounded yet projected shape. It's a cool combo of sporty and sexy, and I have the same black lace in underwear to match. (also from Target)
It's mostly a soft jersey, the cups two layers with dart seams facing in so they don't irritate. Upper cup edges have a clear elastic tape zig zagged on. Underwire casing with no underwire, but it fits like it had one in it. Cradle and band is 1 layer of jersey, but center cradle has a small portion of black tricot as well. Lower portion of band is jersey folded over, feels like a casing with elastic in it. Plush elastic lines the top edge from underarm to back hooks. Straps made of same elastic with adjustable sliders. 3 rows of hooks. Overall, it feels like it was built to be a supportive bralette!
One thing I wish I could change is the bust dart. While I get good projection, it's still a bit east-west. You can see in my different angles I took, it has more 3/4 view projection than forward.
It also gets really good immediate projection. Almost TOO good. You can almost see my natural upside down 7 shape. It would be great if it was a little bit more uplifting.
Doesn't look bad under t-shirts; all in all, I think it is an excellent shape for a bralette!
Band rides up by the end of the day, but not too much adjustment needed for a stretchy bralette. Right cup has a little bit of empty space, being the smaller breast. Cup can stretch to 10 inches, so could accommodate slightly larger breasts (as long as they're a projected shape). I could have probably done an extra small and been ok.

  I tried this exact bra on at target, same color and size, but it was $25 at mine. I too was impressed with the support & shaping, the band wasn’t as much too big as they usually are. At the time I couldn’t justify the cost but it’s in the back of my head for when I want another bralette. For an OTR S/M/L bralette it isn’t bad. I think I’m a cup size bigger than you & definitely needed the small, I tried the XS & the band was great but the cups weren’t quite big enough.

• lcl0706 Wow, what a rip off!! It's only $15.99 when I go on the Target website. But maybe it changes by location/zip code?
  Luckily, if it ever comes down to it, the band doesn't look too hard to remove the hook and eyes, cut off a bit of the band, and re attach the hooks and eyes. But I've been sewing for 8 years, so maybe it just seems easy to me. :P

  No I can sew too and have done that alteration to other bras! I think it would be an easy one to do here too. My target had a couple different colors in this bra. I think there was a pink and white one too.
