This is a push-up bra, padded but not with push-up pad inserts (if that makes sense). Its a very pretty bra and I had high hopes for this one. The band feels pretty good, a smaller band could fit quite nicely. The cups are too small. Even though I don't get quad boob, the gore refuses to tack and if I push it in I do get quad boob. This would probably fit in a 34E/F or 32F/FF. It gives me a slight east-west direction and despite how adorable the bra is I'm not quite sold on it (cleavage wise, I get far more cleavage in the Delphi even though it also does not fit).
doesn't lift my boobs up AT ALL. they literally look exactly the same. where is the cleavage i'm supposed to get in a push up? the straps are also barely adjustable, so if you're petite, forget it. kind of a cheesy print in person; i'm not a teenager anymore.
gorgeous bra. nice tight band gives great support and uplift. bumpy lace makes it really hard to wear under clothes even sweaters. i'm keeping it because the fit isn't that uncomfortable, and it gives me the best cleavage i've ever seen.
Nowhere near my size, so hard to review. Seems as though it would offer good support and be comfortable, and the padding at the sides adds nice lift. If it weren't 3 sizes too small and could hold my boobs in I think it would be an amazing sleep bra (but work for daytime as well.)
This makes my boobs look HUGE. Like I feel like I'm lying to the world. Will save this for special occasions. Comfortable enough, though there is quite literally an inch of padding around most of the cups. Also kind of squeaky.
This is a very gorgeous wire-free bra, but unfortunately is just too small in the cups and too big in the band for me. I would recommend it for a small 32D or a 32C or B even since the bra is pretty significantly padded and also has push-up pads inside. It is a very sexy bra without the pain of underwires, wish it fit me!
I only tried it on once and bought it for $38 from Bare Necessities, I will be selling it.
I have bottom-heavy, wide set breasts, so plunge bras are not usually my friend. However, this bra fits pretty well and I think it has a lot to do with how close set the center gore is. The cups are a little bit loose at the edge so I don't end up with any quadraboob. My main problem is the band. Because this is a front closure bra, it's not adjustable and feels uncomfortable after a few hours, though the upside to this is that the band wont stretch out anytime soon.
Purchased this before trying to figure out my size and realizing a band size of 26 or 28 would usually be more appropriate for my frame, but it felt fairly firm as far as 32s go. I've since attempted tailoring the band to my frame (bringing in both the center gore and the band at the back) with reasonable success; it's one of the more comfortable bras I have now. I won't, however, base the review on the way it fits now that's it's been altered. Fit issues are based on the bra before my alterations.
Pros:
*The pattern is cute. It's a black plaid cup with black lace along ...the top. *If you have a more petite frame (like me) the half-cup style should work well for you. *It has a relatively low center gore, which is also nice. *The cup is not particularly stiff, but it is (I guess) moulded because it is one continuous piece. It gives a nice rounded shape under clothing. *The band of course was way too big on me, but measured right at 32. It's not overly stretchy, so it doesn't feel like it will stretch out too quickly.
Cons:
*The straps are not fully adjustable, which could be an issue for some. *The lace along the top of the cup, while cute, is visible under tighter clothing. It would be a better t-shirt bra without the lace.
Overall, it's a cute bra, gives good shape, and probably good for petite frames despite the limited adjustability of the straps.
Very, very comfortable. My favorite to wear on lazier days. Not the strongest band - had to jump to the second set of hooks right away, but still reasonably supportive for an unpadded. I love the lace detail on the band - dresses it up just a teeny bit so it's not boring. Current fave. :3
