Amazon Wardrobe $52, returned
Band slightly too large, but crumples into nothing? It crumples as if way too overstretched, but feels way too loose. Not very comfortable, for all that it feel soft. Can fit 4 fingers between me and the band without much strain/ plenty of stretch left.cuts fit volumewise, but I am more center-set and have to adjust myself further east-west to be in the cups correctly. Straps are set in my armpits in front and arent comfortable there. Somewhat feel as if the outside of my breast are unsupported? And sort of like this bra wants to push my tissue into the armpits. The seam between ... the side of the cup and the band on my side is in a really weird spot. Possibly because it tries to bring the side panel up so high? Would work much better for someone who is set more East/West and less toward the center than me. Fabrics feel nice quality and texture and secure. Band fits against my sternum, but the diamond sits about 2-3 inches away from my chest- I can fit my hand sideways there. Not secure/supportive enough to be a sports bra- bouncing is particularly not supported. Although not much side to side movement as I already had to push myself sideway into the cup. At least it holds me apart ok? After moving a little I start to quad boob and would have to keep restuffing my tissue sideways. Overall, not stable enough to be a sportsbra, not supportive enough for a dailywear bra and not comfy enough for a sleep bra (mostly due to the strap placement and top/side of the cup being in my armpit) If I wore this for a longer period of time, I would get really tired of the quadboob-ing and having to reposition constantly.
For no underwire, it's fairly supportive when still. It's hard to tell how well it would work with a tighter band and with cups that arent much to far east/west. It's also unpadded, and for me shows an unreasonable amount of nipplebump (the seam actually puckered and exaggerated this)
Quality:
The material all seemed to be high quality expect the bottom band elastic. I wish they went with a functional and softer elastic instead of a plasticy rougher elastic that immediately crumples. 5 stars for most of the bra, 1 star for the band- being functional is important and it isnt even cute crumpled up so that's no good excuse.
Comfort: I am too east/west, and the band wasnt cuper comfotable. the quadding didnt cut into my tissue, it was actually more comfotable than being held seperate, so it's definately not the worst.
Appearance: my fit issues of the straps being wide, band crumpling, and quadding made this look not-so-great. I also dont know how nice the area that connects the cups would look under a shirt with how lifted away from my chest it is. Depends on how tight of something I would wear. The seam bumping up where it hit my nipple looked wrong too, it exaggerated the bump. After taking it off, I notice the whole seam from solid to mesh seems to just be puckering, so maybe it wasnt my niple makeing the bump, but just placement of where that puckering exists. Honestly, this didnt have a whole lot going for it visually.
Over all, Im kind of sad this didnt work. I really love the feel of most of the materials and it seemed well made. It's just a shape mismatch and a few quality details that make it a no.
