Didn't fit
Runs small in the band. I pretty much always wear 30 bands, but sometimes size down to a 28 in stretchier brands. In my next Lepel order, I will probably sister size to a 32 depending on how quickly the band stretches. At the moment, I can't fasten it without an extender, but I just barely can't fasten it.
The straps are VERY stretchy, so at first wear they are adjusted nearly as small as they can go. With extended wear I will probably have to shorten them.
The wires are tall and narrow - which I love. They suit my narrow breasts perfectly. They come up high under the arms, and actually encase my breast tissue with no empty cup on the sides, which almost never happens.
Due to my center heaviness, the seam on the top of the cup cuts into my boobs a bit, but this is a common problem for me. I will have to wear it for a full day to see how significant this issue becomes, but most likely will alter the top of the bra to give myself a little more room in the center.
The overall construction of the bra IS really nice though. It's stretch lace, so while it appears to be quite shallow out of the box, it accommodates very well. I feel like this may be similar to Panache Andorra, but with a bit more room at the bottom of the cup, because Andorra gave me pancake boobs, and this bra gives a much more natural shape.
I'll have to wear this one a bit to see how it plays out after a full day of wear, but right now my impression is this one will be filed under "comfy bra" - this is one of those bras I can see throwing on for a lazy saturday afternoon on the couch. It's very cozy, but still has some nice style.
I actually selected the pale blue color because it was the most inexpensive, but it's a lot prettier than I expected it to be. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />This bra is not owned any more
