Oddly full-coverage for a plunge bra (top edge sticks above edges of tank tops). Inner edge would be too closed to create good cleavage without quadding. Wires a bit too wide but not bothersome. Fabrics are REALLY pretty and that rose in the middle is awesome!! Straps are a good width, but are itchy by end of day. Cup seams make the cup a bit pointy but looks fine under clothing; also lined with itchy fabric and seam binding. Apex is filled, only a tiny bit empty space at bottom and sides, only a tiny bit gappy when slouching, so great shape for me. Band is REALLY tight ... for a 30; a max stretch of 28.5" is a bit tight on me, with an underbust of about 28," but I find this a trend in Boux Avenue. Gore is nice and low, no stabby stabby into sternum.
Overall, it's pretty, and fulfills my desire to have cheaper sexy/cute/lacy bras like I had before I properly fit myself. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
*Edit, Oct 6th, 2016* The band fabric has stretched out quite a bit already. (I wear it every 2-3 days usually.) I guess I shouldn't be surprised since the price is low and quality not necessarily the best out there! Now the unstretched measurement is 24 inches, and stretched 31 inches!!! That's QUITE a difference in one month! My new advisement is to get the size you usually do, rather than sister size up, and just use an extender until the fabrics relax.
