I kinda went out on a limb in ordering this. There were nearly no reviews online, and I knew I would have to buy a 30 band instead of my usual 28 because this bra begins at 30. On top of all of that, this was the first unlined bra I've ever owned. It was so gorgeous that I just had to buy it.
While I'm not sure if the shape it gives is to be expected of unlined bras, I really didn't like the shape it gave me. Call me a sucker for moulded t-shirt bras, but this looked kinda pointy, kinda droopy, compared to the lovely roundness ... I'm used to.
When I first looked at this bra the wires seemed ridiculously narrow to me, yet after putting it on it wasn't a problem. Also, I get the tiniest bit of wrinkling in the cups, along the seaming down the center. It's not really enough to be a problem, but it's there.
I have to wear this on the 3rd set of hooks, a crime in the world of well-fitting bras, but this one was so cute I bought it in the wrong band size anyways.
So far I have yet to wear this anywhere but to bed as I can't get over how odd the shape looks to me under clothes. However, I'm planning to keep it because at the very least, I'll have an adorable pink and turquoise bra to wear to sleep. It's rather comfortable as well.
I thought I'd note that on first receiving the bra, a few pieces of the embroidery were already coming out, so I can't say that this is the absolute highest quality bra.

Thanks for the review. It looks like the Just Peachy 30 band is a true to size or even loose 30 band. Since I wear 28 or 30 bands, that is good to know. I am puzzled by your description of the shape. From your side profile photo, the shape looks quite uplifted and rounded to me. It may not be quite as snub-nosed as in the padded bras you've provided side views of (Cleo Darcy, Freya Deco Strapless), but to me the side shape is far from pointy. I like a rounded side profile, and this Just Peachy Daisy bra looks like a winner to me. The colors are gorgeous, too. The band being too loose, though--that's not a good thing.
