This bra is really well made and comfortable... but it runs REALLY big in the cups! Usually a 30H is a bit big in the band on me, but otherwise a good fit, sometimes even too small; on this bra, there's a significant gap between the top of my boobs and the bra. That said, since it's molded it doesn't look weird and bumpy like a softcup bra might- you can just see the outline of it under a shirt. My breasts are lifted and supported and stay in place, more or less- I just wore it while playing with my dog and jiggled a lot, but ... didn't fall out of it.
It still looks great- I might just put a couple darts in the cups to make them smaller.
The only other problem is that the underwire runs high under my arms. It's not poking painfully, but it's definitely right up there against my armpit. So while it's great for shirts that are low-cut at the neckline, it's not so great for shirts that are low-cut under the arms, like most tank tops.
Pros: Well-made, great materials.
Good plunge shape for low-cut necklines.
Great support.
Beautiful, and in a color you rarely see in bras.
Underwires are well padded so they don't poke.
Cons: Huge in the cups. Go for at least one size down.
High under the arms.
Fabric is kinda slippery (it's satiny stuff.) This is nice comfort-wise, but if your boobs like to escape your bra, you might want something with a little more grip.
Color and lace probably will show under anything light-colored.

Aww, too bad it doesn't quite fit you! I had high hopes. Challenges indeed. :( At least it's pretty, right? :D
