I wear this bra with an extender on the loosest setting and it's pretty comfortable. Wires are too wide but the gore tacks and it sits very close to my IMF that it is comfortable enough for me. At first the fabric was a bit scratchy but after wearing it (and washing) it softens up quite a bit and it's a good good-enough bra for me with my omega shaped breasts. I did rip a tiny hole in the mesh while trying to adjust it so it's not super durable, but that was after several months of wearing only this bra.

Reminds me of the Elomi Cate. Cup feels too high in the front near the strap so it shows under some tops and just feels too close to my neck. I don't like how high the cup is under my arm when I raise my arms in front of me. The Cafe au Lait is on the darker side. I have some gapping in the upper cups and around the underwire, which is normal for my projected shape. I'm still finding my size in general but the band is definitely too big for me. It felt like there was good lift. I didn't like how the top lace part wasn't stretchy- I like the forgiving nature of stretch lace at the top of the cup. I don't think I would bother trying this one again once I do find my true size.

Fit the best of the three sizes I tried in the Matilda. I am full on bottom and projected. I believe this one did not have enough projection for me, but it was close. There was a tiny bit of wrinkling on the top mesh part of the cup, which is a common problem for me. There was also a little wrinkling in the bottom of the cup, which the Internet leads me to believe is because I need more projection in the shape. I did not find the overall shape very flattering. I know it's unlined and meant to be more natural, but I felt very dowdy and flat-chested when I put a shirt on over it. The appearance of the bra itself is very cute, I loved the color and the little details but the shape is just not right for me.

This is a very comfortable and versatile bra. It makes for a good round shape, although doesn't provide a ton of lift unless you hook the J-hook. The wires are nice and wide and there is a decent amount of projection at the wire but is a bit closed at the top. The mesh design makes this very cool in summer and a relatively smooth look under most clothes.

Didn’t quite fit but showed potential. Might try a smaller band and cup size.

Initially tried a 42GG, but I couldn't quite fill the cups. I tried it in this size, and it feels like I am wearing nothing. It fits like a dream!

Shockingly good fit on first glance. I bought it used on eBay in a fit of desperation after weight gain when I couldn't justify attempting to resize into Comexim. Sure, the wires are wider and the cup covers more of my chest, but it seems to have sufficient immediate projection without cutting in at the center. I'm encouraged enough to try other Elomi styles.
Update 12/2018: Weight loss/shape change & this is way too big in the band now; it was probably a generous 34 anyway.Hot pink colorway

I ordered the 34G and 34GG in this bra at the same time, hoping one of them would fit, but to no avail. The gore on this bra is very low and the cups too shallow for me. The gore tacks but I am getting "but crack cleavage" above it. Also, the 4 part cups are not deep enough and make my breasts look sort of square. The mesh-like fabric is too rough for my taste and uncomfortable. Between the 34G and the 34GG, I preferred the 34GG since it has 3 hooks per row and thus feels sturdier. The 34G only has 2 hooks per row. I will be returning this bra as it definitely doesn't fit in the cups, even though the band is comfortable.

The Great Amazon Prime Wardrobe Try-On, Pt 2!
My shape: FOB, narrow roots/shoulders, soft tissue, 32G (though I'm thinking maybe more 30G since a lot of these 32 bands are too stretchy for me!)
Fit: This is laughably too big for me. I'm super disappointed, because I have read so many rave reviews for this brand, and this style in particular! If they made smaller cup sizes, I would be in better shape.
Appearance: I love the darker beige color of this bra. The fabric isn't that soft, though; the cups are made of a stiff lace.This bra is not owned any more
