This was the first "properly" fitted bra I ever had. Trying it on at the shop, I thought, so THAT is what people mean when they talk about a perfect fit. The bra itself is pretty with a lace band, a nice crisscross center gore, gold sliders and hooks, and delicate-looking but sturdy straps. The memory foam of the cups is very thin, so this feels light when it's on, but still gives you a smooth round shape in clothes. It doesn't completely obscure your nipples the way some molded cups do. The band elastic isn't very stretchy. It has two strips of soft elastic along the ... top and bottom edges of the band, but the rest is soft sheer stretch lace. It's very soft and comfortable, but if you like a really firm band, this might not work for you.
I wore this several times a week for about 6 months, and only hand washed it. I think it aged very well - I'm not seeing any stretched-out elastic or fraying ribbon or The only small minus is that those cute gold hooks and strap sliders left tiny green marks in the pale pink fabric when they got wet, probably because there's some copper in the metal. (I filled out the "how it fits" section based on how this bra fits me now. My body has changed a bit, and this no longer works for me. But when it did, it was my favorite.)
