The Lydia is a comfortable bra. It's smooth and silky to the touch, the band is comfortably stretchy with some firmness and the wires feel neither too soft nor too firm. After having worn it for a couple of days, the band did stretch out quite a bit and I should've exchanged it for the sibling size down, but it will still work well as an at home/office/comfort bra. The wires are too wide and the cups too shallow but i knew they would be but it doesn't cause discomfort and I'm mostly okay with that. The gore tacks, but it's a soft tack and I sometimes get ... a little bit of floating but I'm okay with that as well in this case. It was a moderately cheap bra and as such I don't expect excellent fit. Paying double for an Ewa that also doesn't fit but in other ways was not appealing at this time. As with the Elomi Matilda, the Lydia runs big in my cup size, my standardised is 38K and this is a 38J.
Edit: With the J hook closed it fits better and the band sits in place. I should also add that out of all the bras I've ever had, this one causes the least pain from prolonged wear. Even in the most well-fitting bra I get pain after a few hours, especially from sitting down, but the Lydia has been relatively painfree so far.
