There's a lot to love about this bra, but it's the wrong shape for me.

* At 3" tall, the gore can't get out of the way of my close-set shape. The wires are long (and very flexible), so they sit on my ribs instead of being tucked inside my IMF. (Despite being long, the outer wire does not come up too high under my arms. So that part is at least comfortable.)
* The cups are double layer 3-way stretch microfiber... oh so soft and comfortable! They have barely noticeable hidden slings, that help keep things facing forward, (but sigh, not enough for me).
* The band is also double layer microfiber, with no exposed elastic (Yay!). Again, very comfortable. The band at the wire is 4" tall and tapers down to 2.25" at the 3x3 hooks.
* The back straps attach with a pretty lace, overlaying the band, creating a U-shaped back. The actual strap attaches 2.5" above the back band. It also has a J-hook to convert it to a racerback (always handy, albeit awkward to fasten). The straps in the front are center pull. So for those of us with sloping shoulders, there's no slipping strap issues. Plus it helps create a little extra lift in the cups (Always a good thing!).

* Bottom line for me personally: too much wire prevents this from working for me. Too bad too, because it feels wonderful on!
