Didn't fit
This bra is meant for breasts that are full on top, as the too small cups both gape at the top. Meanwhile, the straps are spectacularly far apart, much further apart than most -- and straps in general are too far apart for me. The underwire is far too narrow and cuts painfully into my breast tissue on both sides when I normally only have to worry about the larger left side. All of the weight of my breasts pushes uncomfortably against the bottoms of the cups. That puts all the pressure on the straps, which...don't really touch my shoulders at all unless they're angled in by 2-3 inches on both sides. This bra gives me virtually no support. I wanted to make it work, but I was in a great deal of pain after wearing for just half an hour. The bra also gives me extreme east-west projection, and I prefer bras that put my breasts front and center. Despite the ample padding (which made me think this could possibly work as a t-shirt bra when I saw it online), the lace on this bra is very pronounced, and it shows through one layer of clothing -- it could probably be hidden with a tank under another layer. I need a 34 band most of the time, but this 36 is far too tight for my comfort. I might size up 2 band sizes in this one. The straps are actually long enough for someone with a long torso, if your shoulders are broad enough to catch them. Although I have tried several, I've never found a bra in this brand that works for me.This bra is not owned any more
