I love the high coton content fabric, it's really confortable. The shape it gives me is really good too. My main problem is that the seams are too obvious under knitted materials.

I really like this bra.

It's comfortable. A good fit for me ~ the band fits comfortably on the 2nd hook and the straps are fully adjustable which is nice. It gives a nice rounded shape and the seams aren't obvious through t-shirts. The honey-beige color is just a little darker than my natural skin color and it disappears under white. There isn't much in the way of padding so there can be nipple show-through. I really like the floral design up the front of the straps and in the center gore. It helps to make this rather plain nude bra a little more "girl-y." Nice, quality bra!Updated on Aug 10, 2011 Flag this

After one day of wear, I've found that this bra is comfortable and supportive. I didn't have any problems with the underwires digging into the space between my boobs which I occasionally have with non-plunge bras.
The seams are pretty prominent, more so than my other seamed bras.Updated on May 25, 2011 Flag this

This bra gives a pointy shape. While it’s out of my size range now (30G/30FF) when it was my size (34FF) it still gave a pointy shape. I have average or above projection, narrow roots, and believe I’m center full. I wore the Fantasie Seamless balcony bra (4520) comfortably in the same size so I believe it’s a shape mismatch for me or the shape of the bra.

Smooth cups but quite tight in back.

I already had won this bra on eBay and had it on the way before my ribcage got magically smaller (I lost maybe 3 pounds while I had the flu a week ago, and while my breasts grew half an inch, my ribcage went down by half an inch. Go figure.) and so by the time I got it I kind of already knew it wasn't going to fit. I'll probably list it on here, it's brand new with tags and all.
First off-A 28 would definitely have been way better, but apparently they don't make a 28, which is a shame as it's quite pretty for a ... nude bra, and he straps and armholes seemed a bit better than the usual. The 30 band seemed a tad snugger than some 30 bands I've seen/tried before, but not close to a 28-maybe a 29-and it rode up when I bent over slightly. A 28 band, if it existed, running a bit snug as this one did, would have been a near perfect fit.
Secondly- If the band size had been a 28, the cups would probably also have been perfect, as they were just a smidge too big, and if the band was smaller the cups would have been graded down a bit as well. They also seemed to run a bit large, but possibly it just runs a bit more like a full cup on me, as many balcony bras do.
Finally- the cups were waaaay too wide for my root. This would probably be best for someone with a wide root, in my opinion, because it really is quite wide.
The shape wasn't bad, especially from the side-uplifted despite the looseness of the band, and relatively rounded.
I love the detailing on the straps, they were lovely. As far as nude bras go, in color this one was about a shade dark on my skin, but my skin is super pale(I wear the lightest shade of any makeup foundation I buy, and sometimes that is a bit darker than it needs to be, depending.), so I think on a slightly darker complexion, it would be perfectly matched. The photos make it look a touch lighter than it is in reality, it's more of a beige.
Overall, a lovely bra, it just won't work for my shape, and while in the past I might have accepted it, I would rather just have a bra that works-I have plenty that are "almost right."

I bought this bra because I thought I needed a beige bra, and this was the only non molded one that came close to my skin tone. Then I realized I don't like beige bras, so I'm selling it.
The fit is good, it is consistent with my experience for 30 bands. It is good for full on bottom boobs, it does not cut in. The fabric is thick.
It gave me a pointy/perky shape.This bra is not owned any more

I quite liked this bra except for the one main reason that made me return it: it made my boobs point down. Sidedays, they looked "sad" as in an inverted "7" shape. One of the main features I look for in a bra is uplift and obviously I was getting quite the opposite with this bra. It's like if the apex of the bra is too low, the point where the bottim piece meets the top one is too low.
However, I did find the bra supportive. I liked the nude colour as it seemed to disappear under light clothes and the seams where not too noticeable under t-shirts, making it an acceptable alternative to a plain seamless t-shirt bra (which was the main reason I ordered this style).
Also, I found this 36 band to be quite tight and firm compared to Panache or Cleo.This bra is not owned any more

I quite liked this bra except for the main thing that made me return it: it made my boobs point down. The shape I got sideways just made my boobs look "sad" as in an inverted "7" shape - and that's precisely one thing I am not looking for in a bra!.
I found the band a bit tight and hardly stretchy at all. I thought the colour (nude) was very good as it disappeared under clothes and I found the seams were not too visible under shirts or t-shirts, making it an acceptable alternative to a plain seamless t-shirt bra (at least for me).This bra is not owned any more

Comfortable, and gives a rounded shape. Band is quite stretchy--I do have to fasten it on the second set of hooks.

It looks in your pics like you have some room in the cups though: I can see the wrinkling. Have you tried a smaller cup size?
