This is a beautiful bra! The light blue fabric has a subtle sheen to it, probably why it is called the "shimmer." The fabric is soft and flexible and the lace upper is stretchy. The cup provides a nice rounded shape, which isn't the norm for my full on bottom breasts and tall, sloping roots (not quite ski slope, but close). The gore tacks well and is narrow enough to fit between my breasts without sitting on tissue (as far as I can tell). The elastic along the lace doesn't cut in at all, which is a common problem I have. The straps are ever so slightly too far to the sides, so the part between the strap and the top of the outer wire cuts in a bit at my armpit/front of chest/pectoral muscle. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with this bra!
This bra fits my immediate projection and tall, shallow/sloping roots well. There's some very mild quad boobing/cutting in at the top and the gore floats a bit. There was a mix up with my birth control prescription, so my breasts are uncharacteristically swollen/enlarged (they're usually wonderfully consistent). I'm pretty confident these issues will go away as soon as my hormones even out.
Compared to other Dorina bras I've tried, the band feels tighter. The seams provide more shape/support than the Lila and the cups are situated on the front of the chest, which provides a great fit for my narrow breasts.
This is my best fitting bra. The gore is a tiny bit wide for me, and the wires are a bit too wide on the outside, but I can actually sit up straight and I have so much less pain than I did in my old bras (Cleo junas). They accommodate my need for projection at the wire and my tall, sloping roots aren't cut into or left with cup wrinkling.
