This bra fits really well for me. My boobs are considerably projected, and the bra manages to handle that nicely. The center gore tacks to my sternum, which is a rare occasion for me, since I usually get floating gores. This was a great buy!

See my review of the 32G. What I'll say about the fit on this one is that it's much better for me at the moment (since i"m not digging tight bands). This band is adequately snug to do the job, but not as snug as the 32G. The cups on this one also fit pretty closely to those on the 32G.

What can I say? I've been buying this bra for 10 years (in multiple band and back sizes). It's a staple - even if it isn't very exciting. Gives an entirely round look that's invisible under thin t-shirts. It's pretty comfortable. I have very deep breasts (and specifically immediate centre projection) and no molded bra is optimal for this shape. Mind you, this one does a better job than any other. The gore tacks (if not tightly.

gr8! Really, actually fit, which is novel for me. The cup fabric is thin but sturdy, flexible, and really comfy. The band is sturdy, too, and a very firm 30. If you're asymmetrical, you might have a little creasing on one side or wrinkling on the other, but it all goes away under a shirt. I would describe it as very true to size and the golden standard to which all my other bras are compared.

I was hoping for this to be a great basic work bra but the cup is far too narrow. For girls who need narrow wires this will be great but it gave me major side bulge! I'll pass it on.

Bet fitting bra ever! I can wear it for days on end and never a chafe, or poke or rub. Boobs stay encased and never spill out.

Very comfy, but these days I need a cup size up.

This bra is very nice under clothing. I think the shape is good, quite natural but not pointy. 32FF was slightly big in the band for me, but I've just realized that I'm probably a 30 in most bras, so I don't know if the band is actually bigger than usual. I think it's quite true to size.
I sized down in the cups which was a good idea. Still, the cups slightly wrinkle at the outer top corners, but not in the middle. If I would size down I'd probably get doubleboob.
The bra is very comfortable and well, not too pretty but that's not the point of this bra!
I recommend it, and probably size down one size in the cupshttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I've been on a quest to find the perfect well-fitting seamless bra. I don't like molded bras, and I wear a 28/30 band (preferring 28s for their longer life), so my options are surprisingly limited. This is by far the best that I've found.
It's super comfortable, gives a terrific rounded, projected shape, and covers just enough of the chest. It's a very simple, unornamented design, but I actually find it quite beautifully minimalistic in the black.
Some minor fit quibbles -- this bra expects a certain degree of upper fullness, and I get wrinkling at the top of the cup if that expectation is not met. ... I use an insert to correct this problem on my smaller side. Also, the band on this bra fits like a true 30, so it's a touch big for me -- out of the box, it fits me best on the second hook. I wish it came in a 28.
For the record, here are my quick notes on the other unmolded seamless bras that I've tried or own in my size:
- Fantasie Esme (30F) - fits wider than the 4520 and flattens the chest more. Not enough projection for me, but still comfortable. This is a tight 30 that fits more like a 28 - yay!
- Prima Donna Satin Seamless (30F) - expensive bra, but inferior to the Fantasie offerings. It's a full cup and it's not full enough in the center for me; gives an east/west look with wide wires. I feel like they just shortened the band on a larger size without scaling the bra to a smaller woman. The band is very stretchy. Like most standard 30s, I started on the 2nd hook, but this one has stretched out quickly.
- Empreinte Kaela (30F) - I only tried this on in store. It seemed like an uplifting, great quality bra. It has a rather lovely texture, which unfortunately shows through thin knits and sort of defeats the point of a seamless bra. It also costs double what the Fantasie offerings do.
- Empreinte Iva (30F) - Tried this on in store. It gives a sad, droopy shape. It also costs a fortune. Run away!
