This bra... is not for me. My super squishy boobs sink to the bottom of the cup. I think this bra is slightly too wide for my frame because the straps are too far apart, the cups seem slightly too wide.. but also too projected, I think. What I know is that I love the look of this bra, but MAN does it suck on me and I can't quite put my finger on why.

This is a very beautiful bra. I love the embroidery and the very thick straps that are super pretty and comfortable.

However, this bra does not really seem to suit my shape very well. On all the photos I've seen, it looks quite pushed up and round with lots of projection.. on me it's a terribly pointy bra. I'm not sure how that happened, perhaps the smaller sizes aren't cut as round? or mine was defective? I'm not sure.

The band is very firm, I think it would suit someone very well who needs a sub 28 band and it fits me very well ... with my ribcage (24-25 inches).

People tend to compare this to the Rhea, which I really like in terms of cup shape on that one because its quite rounded. I prefer the gore on this bra since its lower. The Rhea fits me well in 28F, but this one gaps a teeny bit on my smaller boob in the 28E. It seems to be much more open I think.

Overall this is a very nice bra, too bad it doesn't flatter me!!

Band: runs tight, but weirdly comfortable. I have a 28" ribcage and i could only stretch this to 27". It feels like it may start to ache with wear.
Straps: a little wide set but the softness of the fabric on the front half means it doesn't rub at all.
Cups: require more projection than I have, I think. They sort of poke out in the front along the mid seam, and my breasts don't fill that space in. They are very pretty, but the shape kind of ruins it for me. The wires are perfect and this bra gives me a very front forward shape, pushing my breasts inward and forward like no other bras I own.

The embroidery, obviously, would show under thin shirts, so this is definitely not a t-shirt bra.

Most of the bras I see listed as running tight don't really seem bad for me--I have a 27" rib cage and prefer very snug bands. That said, wow does this run tight. The satin band does NOT stretch much and I need to wear it with a band extender if I want to be able to inhale.

The straps are partially adjustable, and are just barely short enough for me. The satin front part of the straps are not padded (maybe just in larger sizes?), so at least in this size it would be really easy to re-sew them to make them shorter if you needed to.

The bra is beautiful. Husband agrees. The black satin and ivory embroidery is just lovely.

I bought the Delphi in 28E following my love affair with Masquerade's Capella in 28E. However, the Delphi has a totally differente fit from the Capella and it does not suit me. The cups seem much bigger than in Capella's - I can't quite fill them. The band size is ok, but the cups are cut in a way that does not suit my measures and shape. I don't like that the underwires aren't as long as Capella's either.
The fabric isn't as comfortable also. But the Delphi is a good-looking bra.

Update: didn't fit me, but my sister profited on that. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" /> It fits her great with a band extension (she has a wider back).
