This bra is perfect for me - flat and open cups, with an undersized band.

I almost always have trouble filling out bra cups (not enough projection), and sometimes get a mock-quadboob(?) where the top of the cup cuts in. I have trouble finding small enough bands, and I think I have shallow breasts. I would recommend trying this bra if you have similar issues.

Pros:
+ The cups are flat enough that I can fill them out!
+ The edging is soft and loose and doesn't cut in at the top. No chop-boob for me!
+ Fabric used for cup lining and wing feels soft and delicate.
+ It's pretty, and makes ... me look like an adult! Amazing.

To note:
= I definitely agree about the band sizing being off. I ordered this in a 30B, and measured it at 26.5", stretched. I also ordered the 32A, which measured about 24" unstretched, 28.5" stretched. Not great for online ordering, but SUPER FANTASTIC for anyone looking for a small band!
= The underwire seems to be on the shorter side/hits lower at the armpits. I like it, but it might give less support for those who need it.

Cons:
- The band has very little stretch once you put it on. I kind of like this, but it may feel less comfortable to others. Makes it harder to put on. And to breathe deeply. When I tried on the larger band, it immediately felt like it was riding up in the back since there was so little elasticity holding it in place. This doesn't seem to make any sense because the bands are so small, but I think the elastic is just not very rubbery and doesn't pull in very firmly.
- The fabric feels very delicate. It's soft and lovely, but I am worried that it may damage easily.
- The darts in the cup aren't the smoothest, they are just a little bit pointy on me.
- The felt covering the underwire channel is thin, and I can feel the edges of the wire with my fingers. Seems like it may wear away sooner than on other bras.
