Didn't fit
I realize I'm still working to figure out my actually size after years of trusting Victorias Secrets and this was a really gorgeous color and print! BUT it was not a step in the right direction for me. I tried the Lily in a 36F because it is a sister size of the 38E I was properly measured at and I thought I needed a slightly tighter band. The cups were a little too narrow and close together for my breasts. The fabric held the part of my chest that managed to make it into the cup very firm, and the stretchy panel at the top didn't let anything spill over the top. My real issue came along the sides where all of my extra breast tissue that didn't fit into the cup got squeezed out into my armpit. The band on this model seems to run really tight - it measured 28 inches laid flat so I think I'm going to need to size up in that and the cup to make it fit properly. This bra did have one of the sturdiest underwires I've seen in a while - virtually no stretch in it at all - which is good. It also had a really nice amount of support below the underwire allowing it rest more comfortably against the ribs. The straps were a lovely design and adjusted perfectly.This bra is not owned any more
