ORIGINAL REVIEW 12/2022: This bra was probably the best fit for me (FOB, short roots, close-set on top) of all the styles and sizes of Elomi that I've tried, but the fabric was too stiff and scratchy and the wires were a bit firm/tight for my pain situation. The lace on the edge of cups also rubbed uncomfortably into my tail of spence. It's possible that a lighter color fabric would be softer, and that it might get softer after washing, but it's not comfortable enough for me to take that chance. I might revisit in the future if my pain gets better. It is very supportive.
UPDATE 9/2024: ... Well, I did revisit this bra about a year later and now it has become my best fitting, most comfortable bra! It did become MUCH softer and more comfortable after washing and wearing a few times, and all of the itchiness and fabric-related discomfort went away. Wearing an extender the first couple of weeks also helped it be more comfortable during the break in period. Now it is so comfortable that I often forget I'm wearing a bra!
Also, it works well for my asymmetry because of the stretch lace cups. It also has one of the lowest gores of the bras I've tried, which is really helpful because I am quite close set. Love this bra!
