Comfy, great fit! This was my first Bra That Fit. After comparing this to other Fauve padded half-cups, it appears this one is slightly deeper and more open on top than most of the others (which is good for me).

Half-cup balcony styles seem to work best for my top fullness. The cups here almost straight across and quite open at the top. It's such a fine line between fitting and not fitting, which you can tell from the difference in size between my left and right breast. When the straps are adjusted the same, the right, which is larger, comes perilously close to quad-boobing at times toward the middle, while there is slight top-wrinkling at the top for the smaller left breast. Tightening the left strap and loosening the right fixes the problem.

T-shirt friendliness: Pretty good. This is technically not a traditional T-shirt style; it's a three-part cut-and-seam soft cup. But the seams are subtle and barely visible on the outside. I wouldn't call it a molded cup, but the cups are very, very lightly lined with a thin layer of foam, which prevents headlight problems. Embroidery and top seam show under tighter tops.

Materials: 48% nylon/polyamide, 46% polyester, 6% elastene. Maybe it's because it's pre-owned and "worn in", but it feels comfortable to me; it's fabric, not mesh, and it's got a smooth, satiny finish.

POST-SCRIPT:
Having tried several Fauve Padded Half-cups in 30F, here is how well they fit me, from best to worst. Better fits are deeper and/or more open on top.
