This bra seems tight in the band despite being able to fit two fingers under easily. The underwires would not sit against my body and left this weird gap in the bottom of the cup between with my breast tissue started and where the underwire wanted to be. The Gore would not tact. I have close set breasts, but it was sticking straight up and was visible from my shirt. Perhaps the gore was too long, I am rather petite.

The Good: Very comfortable, great projection for my unusual shape, love this one.
The Bad: Only complaint is band is on the tight side of acceptable. Only reason I don't consider this my daily wear is because of the excellent projection, as I try to minimize my appearance at work.

This bra was advertised on Brastop as "Esme Balconette," but the cup fits more like a full cup. I couldn't fill it out, and honestly I don't think the style suits me anyway. Maybe it's just because it's a poor fit, but it looks like a stereotypical "granny bra" when I'm wearing it.

I really wanted this bra to work out, unfortunately the cup is too small for me ( 30E ). I think I need to size up 1-2 cups. I also found that while the band is snug I prefer it to be tighter. I can very easily hook it on the tightest ones ( I'm 28.5in around the rib cage ). Otherwise it seems fine, loved the red color.

Ordered this Fantasie 30F bra. I did not know that this bra is technically not moulded. It is one piece fabric with underwire. Normally, The fabric bras I have tried give me the dreaded triangle boob shape, but this one, due to the solid seamless shape, it fit PERFECTLY as if it really was a moulded cup. Very comfortable and good for T-shirts!

Bit of a minimizing effect. Pushes boobs to the side a bit.
Can't fill the bottom of the cup, I think. Unless it's designed that way? Not sure. There's about 2.5 centimeters of fabric between the bottom of my breast and the underwire, but it lays flat, so it's not at all bothersome.
Really comfortable. Full cup coverage. The bit under my armpit is a little high, but it feels fine.

This bra started off fitting pretty decently (but not perfectly) within 2 months the band has stretched quite a bit and you can see that it rides up my back. Works very well as a minimizer, but makes my breasts point east-west more than I'd like, creating a wider chest. It is comfortable for all-day wear and mildly strenuous activities like hiking. It is too full at the top of the cup.

It's a nice seamless T-shirt bra for folks with medium to moderately wide breasts.
They seem to wear fairly well, long-term -- as evidenced by the fact that I outgrew mine before I wore it out.

Pros:
* Seamless, smooth under fabrics.
* Good for breasts with moderate to wide roots.
* Rounded, even shape.

I purchased and wore this bra under different measurements than I have now. When I wore it, it worked with my shape -- wide root, relatively even from top to bottom -- fairly well. The wires may have been a touch narrow and/or the band may have run a touch larger than I was. Good coverage, decent shape. A nice every day bra. The material is smooth enough to wear under T-shirts -- for folks who want a non-molded T-shirt bra.
