Didn't fit

Very short-waisted, center full, close set, somewhat narrow, immediately projected, shallow apex projection,...

Wacoal La Femme 32H fits me best. This Subtle Sensuality is 2 sizes smaller. I'm certain a larger size would fit well. As it is, the narrow cup forces my center -full tissue too close together for the design of the cup.

This was a purchase shrouded in optimism. Reality is not so rosey....especially bra purchases https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" /> For reference, this review is for US size 32DDD which is equivalent to UK 32E.

The band material is super soft, stretchy microfiber, and it feels big. This Wacoal model runs "true to size" rather ran smaller than size. The band stretches to 32". For this reason, I'm not inclined to purchase a 34: the band is too stretchy to provide the support I need on my 28" underbust. Interestingly, two models recently released by Wacoal run "true to size." I hope this is not a trend https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />

The wires bite into my ribs. It feels like my breasts are pushing the cup forward and down. Judging from the floating gore, this is true. I can wear tilted gores for five minutes before my body passionately objects. This cup is 1-2 sizes too small. Much of this particular fit issue may be remedied by a 32G/H, which they don't manufacture in this model.

The gore is low and narrow. And, the cup offers better than average space for center fullness. Because of the gore design, a few stitches and two minutes would make this a very narrow gore. Awesome feature.

The straps are narrow, fully adjustable, and convertible via j-hook. These straps are very similar to the, relatively, narrow How Perfect Wireless bra straps. Still, the straps are supportive, but I appreciate the security of more robust straps.

Overall, a great t-shirt bra with a very low, narrow gore. Cup accommodates average apex projection, average width, and better than average center fullness. Super soft materials, sufficient padding for prominent nipples, and thin enough padding that it feels lined rather than heavily padded.

Sand colorway
