This bra arrived from Amazon with creased cups AFTER I had returned the first one that was unwearably crushed. The creases on this one pop out when I wear it. I decided to keep it because it was the last one available and it was super cheap.
My main complaint about this bra is the boning at the sides. It pokes badly after a couple hours. There is piping at the top of the cup edge that will hide under the elasticated top edge of strapless shirts, but plain fabric laying across it may show a line. The fabric is super soft and will snag easy. It's listed as ... Ivory, but is a bright, bridal white.
Like many Masquerade bras, this runs small in the cup. Instead of quadding, I mound way up in it, which is fine by me. The top part of the cup flattens my breast slightly instead of maintaining a smooth curve, not quite a true quadboob visually. It's shallow at the wires, which are narrow and not excessively tall. The band feels slightly snug for a 36, but that's probably because the cups are too small. The gore isn't visible under the outer fabric, but I can feel it's too high and wide for my very close-set brests. Despite all the technical fit issues, I like the way I look in it, and it's not terrible considering it's a strapless bra on narrow & projected set of breasts. It's OK for the rare occasions I need it.
TL;DR - Cup is narrow, shallow at the wires and runs small. Side wires are not super tall. Band *seems* TTS, boning digs. Gore is too tall and wide for very close set breasts. Cup edge may show under some shirts.
