Gorgeous. Lined, not padded. It's a slate grey base with yellow, soft blue and iridescent (blue/green/silver) embroidered 5, 8, 4 & 3 pointed flowers/leafs, along with an embroidered curling ribbon design of the soft blue. There is a mustard yellow bowtie at the top of the center gore.
It seems like it may be a tad deeper at the apex that padded Comexims of similar size, and the straps are set too wide for me (as in every bra), which makes the straps and wings itch some days. Mine does have cookie pockets, the lining is a kind of fine mesh polyester and doesn't feel bad.
The texture often shows under shirts, but it's been a while since I've work it out to check just how overt that is.
The embroidery does continue partway up the strap and makes the straps only partially adjustable.

This is definitely one of the prettiest bras I own. It's a muted navy with gold, green and blue-grey embroidered flowers. I ordered this thinking it was a padded 3HC, but it's actually a soft cup. I would have ordered it a cup size down if I'd known. While it 'fits', I think it would be a bit more flattering and supportive if it fit a bit snugger. I still like the way it looks and feels, though, and I find it to be more supportive than I expected. It has lovely, substantial straps that are softly brushed on the inside and easily adjustable to about halfway or so.
