    This bra is very comfortable, soft, and cute! The band does seem to be a little bit stretchy, but for the time being, it stays put and I can't complain. It suits my shallow girls nicely and feels very supportive. I'd love to have more of this bra in different colors, to be frank!

    This bra is very uncomfortable for me so I am not keeping it, but I will review what I can. I have only tried on one other brand/style in a 30 band, this band runs a little large in comparison. The other bra is an Atlantis wire-free enhanced t-shirt bra. This bra has no padding or pish-up. It is very cute and isn't poorly made but the little details, like the lace and bows look like they are pretty fragile and would begin pilling/fraying from the first machine wash. I am still figuring out my size but I would say it runs true to size or close ... to it, though being the xompletely wrong shape for my body it is hard to say with absolute certainty, but given how the cups did fit me. The bra is moderately priced and if this style suits you it is a fun, flirty bra and would be easy to find off brand coordinating undies, which is always a plus. Because of the details this bra will not be discreet under clothing but under looser tops or dresses it will provide enough coverage that if you bend over your breasts won't be exposed.

    I love this bra because it is very comfortable. What I love the most about this bra is the fact that it doesn't have wires which end up in my armpit. I own several of these bras in my size and I absolutely love every single one of them.

    This bra is fantastic for my shallow, wide rooted chest. The underwire sits wide under my armpit which captures all of the tissue and I fill out the whole cup. The gore tacks to my sternum properly and the straps aren't too tight or loose.

    I would have preferred to get this bra in a 28D but sadly this bra is not made in that band size. I am concerned about the stretchiness of the band over time but I'm hoping that with good care the band will hold up. The band could be tighter, but it stays put and doesn't ride up my back throughout the day.

    Overall this bra is very comfortable for me to wear and it will work well for an everyday t-shirt bra. It's not a 100% perfect bra for me, but since this is my first foray into properly fitting bras, this bra is serving as a great starting point for me.

    Nice comfortable bra, but I wish there was more oomph? It is lined for modesty but doesn't help much with shape and the vertical seems are obvious under a slub shirt, although I realize they are what help a bra lay well with shallow breasts. I do think that the gore is too wide for me, the wire sits on my tissue instead of beside it. I do like the wide set straps. I think if the cup were shorter I think I wouldn't be seeing the wrinkling due to my own apex being more splayed that the bra's, and there is some wrinkling side and bottom ... in the smaller of the two in the 30d, but it feels more comfortable than the 30c (which is supposed to be my 'sister size' for 28d) in order to fit my larger breast to prevent it from pulling my bra out of position. I wish the band was tighter, I can get a whole hand under the band on the tightest hook, which means I can't tighten up the straps as much as I'd like before it slips over the smaller's tissue.
    I love how wide set the straps are, it gets all the breast tissue right to my armpit that I have with my wide and tall root breasts.
    First bra I've tried outside TLBC venture, and I am pleased enough that I would keep it if nothing else works, but I will keep looking, as well.

    I love the overall fit and comfort of this bra, however it gives me some quadboob and the band is VERY stretchy. Even on the tightest hook it is still too loose. If I keep it, I'll have to alter the band to be smaller.

  7. Stretch Mesh Animal Lightly Padded Demi Bra (723603)

    This bra is super comfy, very similar to the BJ stocking stripe in terms of comfort and fit for me, but without the stretchy band of lace at the top of the cup that cuts into by breast tissue. I do get a little bit of gapping at the top of the cup when I am slouching but using the little converter hook to make a cross back makes this dissapear, so it is most likely the straps are a tad wide set for me.
    The band is super stretchy and after a month I am moving from the loosest to the second hook but when I get to the tightest hook I will probably reinforce the band so I can keep wearing it, it is that comfy.
    Lightly contoured cups prevent show through which is important to me and the lace at the top of the cup doesn't show unter t-shirts or thin tops. The cup width is great for me, I have noticed I need a wider underwire and shallower cup to get a good fit.

    This bra is fairly comfortable and supportive. I would recommend it to people who have shallow, wideset breasts. It will be the most supportive to those who measure 30"+ under their breasts.

    I had to bend the gore slightly away from my chest (it curves inward just a bit at the top of the gore, and leaves a darker red mark.) I sometimes wear a 30D, but can't do that in this brand because the band is a bit stretchy and the straps are wideset. I fit better in the 30C, even though one breast quads ever-so-slightly. This is a shallow bra. If you measure around 26 inches under your bust, this bra may be too stretchy to support you. I measure 27-28 and wear this bra on the middle hook.

    Mine is ivory-colored and altered to have the band stretch to ~27 inches.

    The cups are shallow and they work very well with my shallow boobs. The laces and the seam on the cups show through thinner tops very easily. I can't really comment on the band stretchiness as I have the band altered, but the material for the band is a delicate, stretchy mesh material which is not very firm.
    Without the alteration, the band was really big on me (26" underbust, usually fine with 28s)

    OMG, it's as wide as my breasts! When I first put it on, it was the most comfortable bra I've ever tried. (This is because I've only ever worn bras that have too-big bands and too-small cups... who knew.)

    However, it stretches like you wouldn't believe. And the underwires poke and hurt when the band isn't tight enough. At first I thought I was crazy, that it had felt so good when I tried it on, and then when I wore it a couple days later (after washing) it hurt! Finally I figured out I needed to tighten it a notch. I'm already wondering about tightening it again.

    Overall, I wouldn't recommend buying it, because it stretches out too quickly. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Sad me, because it fit so well when I first got it.

    I LOVE this bra. I just recently measured myself and have started rebuying my bra wardrobe. I was previously wearing a 32B which would gap and the band would ride up, and 32A was always too small. So far this is my favorite bra. I am measured to be around a 28D, but because of my shape, sometimes bras are a little too big in my size, but a size down would be too small.

    This bra is perfect. I have shallow breasts that are wide set, so I enjoy a good pushup to give me some cleavage and a nice full round shape under a shit. This is the first bra that has no gapping when I wear it. It's a great shape and very lightweight, despite being padded. The band also fits snug on the second hook. I have been able to find more selection in a 30C than a 28D, and a 30C is much better for me than a 32B!

    I'd read reviews saying this bra was comfortable, and it certainly is that! It's also the most stretchy bra I've run across so far. I have very little squish on my ribcage and so generally prefer 30 bands, but this one I fastened on the tightest hook and could still stretch it waaaay out from my back. It starts crawling upwards almost immediately.

    The cups are edging on too wide for me, as the straps are nearly in my armpits. Fortunately it's very comfy, but still.. The stretchy cottony mesh stuff used on the band, especially at the wings, is the most flimsy stuff imaginable. While I'd love to keep this bra, as the cups do fit well and it's certainly comfortable, the band size is a no-go.

    This bra is not owned any more

    Tried on this bra since it's been recommended as good for shallow breasts. While it is shallow and wide (I love with width), it's a tad too deep for me in the center, and also gaps a lot when slouching. The rim of the cup is also too closed so it cuts into my breast tissue - so that part isn't particularly great for shallow breasts.

    I can't stop singing the praises of this. For shallower-boobed ladies who still have non-negligible cup sizes, this is wonderful. It's not a pushup by any means, but it's supportive and feels like a nice boob hug!

    The band is a bit stretchy; I'm wearing it on the second hook right now, I could probably wear it on the last hook (but I'm trying not to yet) and I haven't yet had it for a month. Once it stretches down to the last one I know I'm going to have to alter it down, as someone who's more suited to 28 bands.

    I'm not sure how it'll hold up to the test of time, quality-wise, as the "stocking stripe" material is a little thin and consists of mesh over the foam molded lining, but for now, I love it! If only it came in other colors...not a huge fan of pink, and black/nude are too ubiquitous. Maybe I'll get one in nude or somethin' for t-shirt purposes, though...

    This bra is very cute. My only complaint is that the band stretched out a bit from the time of purchase and now I wear it on the tightest set of hooks which has caused the tag to uncomfortably rub against my skin when it didn't before.

    I'm updating and condensing this review as I've had this bra for more than a year now.

    This set is soo cute but has been a disappointment. The band is very flimsy and very stretchy. A few months ago I had the band altered down to a 28. It helped with the band riding up quite a bit but I still need to wear it on its tightest hooks and it still rides up a tad. Just enough to still be annoying. I keep this bra now for show and lounging around the house.

    More food for thought: I finally took pics. The pics are after the band has been altered down and I'm wearing the bra on its tightest hooks. I have also grown in cup size since my original purchase of this bra.
