So, this fits loads better than I feared it would, but it's not perfect. This is a very pretty bra, the nude color is great with my skin, and the full band is fantastic. The cups are molded and stiffer than the Deco strapless cups. They do not curve up at the edges like the Neve did. They don't show under tees, at all. In a nutshell: highly supportive, broad, tall, very shallow - almost flat. (Jedi voice): *If you are FoT, move along. This is not the bra you're looking for...*
BAND: Very tight. I could have done ... a 30 band, but oh well I have an extender on it. And I want my strapless bands to be tight. It feels quite firm though, so unsure how much it will stretch.
CUPS: Very wide and shallow. I have very slight quadding on my bigger side. The wires are very long and the cups are tall. I could have used another cup size of depth, but then the wires would have poked me. I'd rather tuck a bit of quadboob back in once in a while than live with armpit murder. As it is now, the cups are tall enough to contain all the tissue under my armpits without stabbing me.
It's the only strapless bra I own right now and it's not perfect, but it's better than I thought it'd be. For those 2 reasons, I'm keeping it. I agree with the previous reviewer that it's a smartly designed bra - if you are broad and shallow.
*UPDATE* Ended up returning this after trying to wear it a couple times, and collapsing the bottoms and sides of the cups. This is quite possibly the widest, shallowest strapless bra on the market, and when I bought it I just didn't have a good grasp on how narrow and projected I really am.

Well I've worn it all day and can say it's still comfortable and I've done minimal adjusting :-) The full band is brilliant, it's padded at the gore and underwires for comfort. It makes it thicker but I don't care.
