Me: very soft tissue; Measurements: UB 68/72 cm (26.5/28.5"), Bust 87/92 (34/36.5")

Band: Quite tight! I'm glad I sized up to a 70 because it barely stretches to 71 cm. Mesh is firm and the wings are high. I probably couldn't even fasten a 65, and I don't think a 75 would be out of line here. Definitely size up.

Cups: Runs small. Feels stiffer than the other 3D bras I own. This has the effect of really collecting and holding the breasts very securely - less bounce but still excellent cleavage. Cups run small and seem to ... be lower in height (which I like - more breast exposed). I normally pad my smaller breast, but I don't here (and it fits fine) and I get some quadboob on the larger side. I've ordered a larger cup size to see if it fits better.

I think the stiffer cups also change the shape a little bit - normally the 3D is quite pointy until it is worn bit but this one has a more subtle, rounded shape right out of the box.

Wires: Flexible, but not too much. Very comfortable.

Straps: stretchy and adjustable over the whole length.

Fabric: A true deep red covered with lace. Seams are covered in shiny black trim which lays flat under shirts. Maybe it is cliche but I really love a red and black color combination so it is already one of my favorites. It could be considered scratchy for people with sensitive skin.

Overall, I LOVE this bra. The matching briefs are nice, though the elastic is a little tight at the top and the ruffles make it somewhat bulky under tight clothing.
