Aerie was having a huge sale and I saw this bra for $15 so I bought hoping it would be right between the Sunnie lightly lined and the Sunnie push up. For reference the Sunnie lightly lined is my go to bra for everyday wear and the push up fits well but really heaves the boobs up, something in between would be nice.
The Band:
I wear a 32C in the Sunnie but this band seemed not so stretchy so i opted for the 34B. The band is wide all the way around and is 2 inches at the 3 row clasp. It seems true to size and ... is very snug on the first hook.
The Straps:
The straps are typical 3/8" wide stretch straps that aren't placed too far apart. They stay in place and are plenty comfortable. Beware, they don't fully adjust do to the design in the back and are almost too long for me, if you are short with high set breasts you might have an issue with these straps.
The wires:
good length, average stiffness, not a problem.
The Cups:
The cup width and height is perfect for my shape. The placement of the padding caused the wires not to sit in the fold, if I adjusted the straps to get the wires where they belong I got a nice lift but the gore wouldn't tack (this is the first time I have ever experienced this and wow, is it annoying). Letting the straps out, the gore tacked, but no where near my tissue and no lift. Also the cups are STIFF, look good in the mirror but look surprisingly pointy under a shirt.
Overall not a bad fit, kind of like the Bridget but with more padding, and in a pinch I could wear it without much complaint other than the gore. Even though the price is right I will be returning this.
