I want to note that I got these bras when I was a bit heavier. Enchantment adds +4 inches to the band so my 34 was really more of a 30 originally.
Since the this model didn't have anything below a 34 band or above a G cup, my options were very limited. I initially got 34DD(US), the size I used to get in any and every bra to stuff myself into, simply because I didn't know any better. Somehow I lucked out with this particular 34DD which had fit much better than any other I've tried. The wires were much wider than standard 34DD wires (being a ... minimizer) and it wasn't until I had it that I knew it was something I needed. The gore wasn't awkwardly floating, the straps didn't dig in and it fit perfectly snug on my then 31 inch under bust. Thinking this was THE one, I went to get another. The price of my beloved 34DD went up and the 34DDD went on clearance. The cheapskate within me gave into the temptation and got the larger size. To my surprise, it fit even better the the first! The gore tacked better, the wires are wider, finally I found a bra that contained ALL of my side issue. A true ABTF moment for me! This was marketed as a minimizer for larger busted women but for me it fit like a regular, well fitting bra. Instead of being flattened out, it was naturally lifted and projected forward. Don't let the intended function of a bra stop you from trying it, the results might surprise you!
Back to the present, Ms. Lilyette is still a very comfortable bra for me, though with the band being a looser fit it now functions as a sleep bra. A 32G Enchantment would likely fit me with my current measurements.
This is a well made bra that is easy to find and often discounted. I highly recommend this one to those with wider than average roots with average projection. I would avoid this for narrow roots, obviously, very shallow roots and extremely projected breasts unless you don't mind the flattening effect.
