I have fairly even breasts, with wide and somewhat tall roots.

Aesthetically, of course, this bra is one of the cutest things I've ever seen.
First things first, I ordered from Bravissimo and the description said that the cups ran small, so to order one cup size up. I did this and ordered the 30E while I normally wear 28E/30DD. I do think it runs small because it fits me pretty well, however I would be curious to see how the 30DD fit on me, especially with the way the upper cup fits.
The fit is a bit strange; I don't quite have enough upper fullness to get a super great ... fit in the top of the cup, even though it fits "okay." I didn't realize until it arrived that there is a small piece of elastic along the top of the cup which I'm sure is to help the bra give a more fitted illusion for those it doesn't quite fit. It does help with that I think.
The shape the bra itself gives on me is kind of pointy. I never intended on getting this for an every day bra, but it is still something to consider.
Even though the 30 band stretched to ~31.5, it genuinely feels snug and firm (even as someone used to Cleo bands lol), so I may have overstreched it a bit in measuring. I definitely think your normal band measurement will be fine.
The underwires seem.... significantly softer than what I'm used to? The gore always seems at risk of floating/bending away from my body which is not something I ever experience in other bras.
My primary concern with this bra is snagging!!! There was already a frayed bit of lace on one of the cups that I trimmed off after removing it from the box, but I feel like some rough spots on my hands are catching slightly on the lace which makes me nervous for sure! I will try to be very careful and gentle with this set.
