I'm not crazy about this one. I have wide roots, but these wires are even a bit wide for me - more so than Panache, which fits me well. The side panels are too stiff, compared to the cup, and create a groove (at least with soft breast tissue like mine), and the overall shape is kind of droopy - it seems like the bra can't support the weight.

With an extender, this bra is the closest I've gotten to a perfect fit. It's very supportive. Without the extender, wearing this bra is an exercise in pain tolerance. I have a beige one and a black one in the same size that I bought at the same time several months ago. The black one is much worse than the beige one about cutting into my skin (again, without the extender). It would probably all be fine if I'd just bought both of them in a bigger band size and not let the bra fitting lady convince me otherwise. Ah well. (This review is for the black bra. I'll post one for the beige bra once I have taken pictures.)

Amazon Wardrobe trial/fitting. Band,Wires, and straps are all great. Cup volume seems ok. Im a little puffy at top-center but only the very slightest bit. Also the very slightest gapping at strap connection as if my roots are just a tiny bit shorter. Gore floats a little, but doesnt seem to have breast tissue underneath/trapped, just too close set for the width to settle against sternum. One of the best fits I've found. Not a fan of the bumpy lace/trim on all edges.
Biggest issue is slight nipple bump can be seen through padding.

I really like this bra! I have super wide roots, so Elomi's wide wires are perfect for me. Cup shape is really nice and rounded (though not perfectly round), but someone who is full-on-top might get major quad-boob in this. The band is tight (I measure 35 with some squish) and the underwires do press on my ribs – which I don't mind, but maybe you would, review-reader! The tightness and the fact that the wires & gore are also very tall make it feel secure to me, no chance of spillage or things getting out of place. Also, the lace on the band/sides and the fabric within the cups are strangely itchy, but perhaps that'll go away after washing. Overall, it's a good everyday bra that won't show any texture under a t-shirt.
I'd really recommend this to someone who has wide roots, is projected but likes a rounder shape, or really needs the physical security. If you're center-heavy, narrow-rooted, full-on-top, or are very picky about the feel of your fabric, maybe pass on this one.
