I love this bra. I even love the way it looks. And it never retains odor and lasts forever.

I got this at Nordstrom Rack for a bargain (over half off!) without realizing that it was the very same bra I had been lusting over for months! However, I was soon disappointed because it has not lived up to my expectations.

Pros: The band is very nice, comfortable, and firm. Also, it is a gorgeous bra overall - the embroidery is beautiful and not at all itchy. The straps aren't stretchy and are close-set enough that they don't slip at all. The bra itself is pretty comfortable.

Cons: The padding on this bra is not sufficient enough to prevent "headlights," nor is it stiff enough to provide a ... decent shape. I end up with a squished profile, not much lift, and less projection than I have without a bra. Also, the gore is too high for me and digs into my sternum. The cups are made of a stretchy material that has started to pill after less than ten washes. Since the cups are stretchy, I cannot do anything more than walk without bouncing all over the place.

This is a beautiful, well-made bra, but it just doesn't provide the shape or support that I desire from an everyday bra. I have the white one and it would be a gorgeous addition to a bridal set, but it is not suitable for everyday use in my opinion.

I couldn't fill out the top of the cups, but the bottoms of the cups seemed fine. The straps were a little wide on my shoulders as were the cups. I think that overall this is just the wrong size for me, considering I normally wear plunges and half cups. It was comfortable and the quality is great (plus it's really cute), it's just huge on me.

I picked this up at Nordstrom Rack because it was the closest bra I could find to my size (I need a 28E and was looking for 30DDs.) It fits decently everywhere except for the top of the cups, where it wrinkles a bit. I'm not sure if I'd be better in a 30DD because my left boob (the larger one) fills out the cup with minimal wrinkling. The band is comfortable and doesn't seem to ride up. The gore tacks and doesn't dig in. I think I'm in between sizes in the bra so it's a "meh" fit but it's not bad, plus it was really cheap. ...

My breasts are quite even, leaning towards full on bottom and slightly shallow. I have a somewhat wide root (I think? This stuff is confusing.) and the wires are a comfortable width. The bra seems like almost the right shape, but I can't really be sure because it's slightly too large.

I love the look of the bra itself. I'm a sucker for floral prints, and the color is just so pretty. I also managed to get matching panties. If you're wondering about the sizing of the panties, I have 36" hips and an average sized butt and I fit perfectly in a size small.

The cups are a bit pointy and I can't fill out the top half of the cups. I love the lace and the pinstripes but I wish this fit better.

Would rate this bra higher except that after a few hours, the gore is uncomfortable. Readjusting fixes it for a while.

Probably could be corrected with some judicious gore-bending.

tight in the band, took some wearing in. Now very comfortable and gives a great shape.

This bra does not have underwire so why do we have to measure for underwire?

This is a great bra for that 50's torpedo look. Horribly pointy look.

This is a bikini set, top is a 30E (seems very small in both cup and band) and the bottom are a UK 8 which is equivalent to a US 0-2 or 2-4, basically a XS.

This set has never been worn, only tried on, will be selling it on here

The underwire digs into my underarms. I still wear it (in fact, I have two!), but it does get uncomfortable by mid-way through the day. Maybe better for you if you have a less fleshy underarm than I.

I had such high hopes for this bra, since Bratabase recommended it to me as a good fit and its measurements matched closely with a bra that does fit me. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. The cups are a little too big, which makes the seams stick out and show through clothing, making me look kinda pointy. I'm also not crazy about all the embroidery and bows on the top of the cups and straps, which I couldn't see in the picture when I bought i.

This bra fits great since it's relatively new. The shaping is wonderful and firm. The center gore is too high for me and it pokes my sternum if I'm laying on my stomach. Also, can't wear it with anything low-cut.

This bra is older, so the band is a little stretched out. The bra has great shaping, holds everything firmly front and center. The cups disappear under everything that's not too low cut. Not the sexiest of bras, but it makes me look pounds thinner!

Good bra-- true-to-fit, pretty, etc. The price-point is kinda steep for me though, at $63. DX
