Didn't fit
I picked this thing up at WalMart during a severe bra emergency. It was the closest thing to fitting I could find (as long as I wore a sports bra over the top, anyway). It doesn't even come close to fitting me anywhere except the wire width, so I'm probably going to perform mad-scientist type bra experiments on it before I toss it (hoping to maybe transform it into a sleep bra or something).
Wires are plastic, I'm pretty sure--they're very flexible, at any rate. There doesn't appear to be any elastic in it at all; the bra fabric's lower edge is bound in some kind of shiny lycra/spandex stuff that is super stretchy (it's bandless). The straps are solid, though, and the cups are lined with a nice soft semi-padded type fabric that I wish I could get in my real bra size (sigh). It's not as thick as a typical moulded cup, but it's seamless, so there's definitely some kind of moulding going on in there.
Sadly, I can't comment on the fit, since it doesn't fit me.This bra is not owned any more
