One of my favourite bras to not worry about. Since it's a continuity and rather inexpensive I don't worry about damaging it. I can also forget I have it on. Cooking? Cleaning? Facing a diabolical villain? No problem. Well, the villain might be. I have noticed with constant physical labour (usually stretching or reaching up a lot) the band can shift around, otherwise it usually stays in place. Speaking of the band, this absolutely seems like a 30 band. It will happily and comfortably stretch to 30. But the mesh won't ride up on regular days on me. It is reasonably loose on me, though, again it stays ... in place.

The cups are rather open on top, a personal plus for me with how much my breasts change depending on the day. It seems to be small on my bigger side though. The cups have enough projection for me. Doesn't do a lot for uplift and the attractive split straps are too wide for me. Maybe I I just don't get any uplift due to the loose-ish band? The wires are a bit wide for me, maybe a couple fingers, but creates no fit or layering problems.

The wires can be creaky, sometimes I hear them flexing. They're also soft wires. Also while measuring I noticed that the wire channel has about 3/4" of just empty space at the end of the wire (next to the wing). I don't feel the wires shift around in the channel.

The outer mesh and lace-y fabric on the cups isn't friendly towards most thinner shirts or most tank tops and will show through.

Fits almost perfectly but I just can't do underwires. Removing the wires and taking a dart out of the gore to compensate for the resulting non-tacking looks promising though.

mm ok? the wire seems to stay in my IMF, at least below the boob. On the outer sides, it isn't wide enough so the wire leaves marks on my breast. In the center, the gore tacks but was pushed off center by my larger boob. I think we can blame the overall wire width for that.

looks a bit small visually?

Having previously gotten the 32D and found it nearly perfect in all but the too large band, I finally bought the 30DD and am much happier. The band is just right for me, the cups still fit exactly with a very pleasantly open cup for FOT breasts, and the back of the band is a little wider in the 30DD, so it provides fractionally more support. It continues to be very soft, with soft wires, so the fact the gore is too wide for my close-set breasts is actually a negligible gripe that I can't even feel. I am going to remove the center bow, but I figured I would leave it in for the pictures this time.
There is still the matter of the center seam of these bras showing very visibly under thin shirts, but personally if I like a bra, I don't care if someone can tell I'm wearing one.

This bra was a really bizarre fit for me. The seamed cup gave me a distinctly pointy shaped, which in a seamed cup is generally an indication that the cup is too large. However, after scooping and swooping, I had major quad boob. I also thought the straps were too far apart and I had chafing marks by the end of the day I wore it. This bra is supposed to be a good fit for shallow-shaped breasts, but it just does not work for me.

Such a cute bra, but slightly too big for me. fabric on the inside of cups is so so so soft. They are foam but very flexible and thin.

This bra fit pretty well but I found that the seeming was extremely visible under shirts and that I did not like how it looked on me. The top of the gore started getting a little floaty as well, but not in a way that mattered (?).

Very comfortable all day.

Appearance: Clearly a very pretty bra. Seems fairly well-made, especially at its price point.

Band: A bit loose on the first set. I can start off on the last set, which will mean a shorter life or band alteration, neither of which are attractive options. However, this make goes down to only 30 band, I believe.

Straps: Only two spaghetti straps, which wouldn't be a problem were the band tighter. However, the band isn't as tight as I'd like to begin with. That said, the straps are place well (not too wide) and barely noticeable. I have no problem adjusting them to the desired length.

Cups: The right cup is a ... bit small for me, so everything shifts a bit to the right. Moreover, the cup isn't wide or spacious enough. I can have my breasts floating at the top where they can sit comfortably rather than be squeezed into the cup's shape. If I do try to squeeze in everything, the center gore floats quite a bit, perhaps an inch. If I put in just enough tissue for the cups, the wires sit atop my breasts all around, especially the right one.
