The Amelia is a very basic bra. It's simple and nice looking, seemingly designed for comfort and disappearance under clothes rather than to be sexy. Nevertheless, it's become one of my favorites. The lined fabric is smooth under thin shirts, the straps are soft, fully-adjustable, and leotard-set in the back to prevent slipping, the wires are shallow and wide, and the band is flared to allow for a better fit at the top and bottom of the band. I was initially concerned that it was a bit too separate in the gore for my boobs, but because the gore is low, that really hasn't been a problem at ... all.
In short, highly recommended for others who need wider wires and shallower-shaped cups. I took the advice of the other reviewer who suggests considering a cup size down, and that worked well.
My only complaint is that the band fits on the large size. I have a lot of 36 bands, but this one is quite stretchy and on the edge of too big. The middle and last sets of hooks work, though, so I'm going to hope that it doesn't stretch out too quickly. I wish wish wish that this bra came in more cup sizes in 34; then, it would be basically perfect.
