This is one of the first bras I purchased (or haven't returned) since finding out my correct bra size. I have narrow shoulders and separated breasts. I find this bra does a good job of providing some cleavage while still looking relatively smooth under a stretchy tee shirt. It stays on my shoulders without slipping and without digging into my underarms, as I find to be the biggest problem I have with so many bras. most "seem" to have wide set straps. I think the difference is that the the very top of the cup on this one turns inward slightly instead of outward towards the my armpit. ... The straps are fully adjustable which is nice.

About the only negatives I can find with this bra are that the lace, although pretty, comes up fairly high on the straps making this the wrong bra for many wider style neck openings. For instance it looks great under a tee but I cannot wear it with a tank top. Lastly the band only stretches to 30", at the very most, and is quite tight on my 29" frame. (It is still new so it may relax some - For now I am using it with an extender and it is working quite well).

Fantastically fitting for my shallow breasts. No wrinkling. Very comfortable. Owned it a little over a month now, wear usually half of the week and another one the other half and no cons yet for it. Fabric is soft, the lace is not itchy. It's a very nice every day bra for every day wear. I got it a cream color, a lighter than nude. In other brands/sizes I also fit a 30C very nicely.

This bra seems to run small in both cup and band size.

This is a great basic bra for under tees and with low necklines. Is great for those with wide shallow breasts. It has good coverage and comes in a bunch of different colors. The band is comfortable and runs true but the cups run small for the size. I've had this for over a year and it washes well.

I wish this fit, I've been wanting to try one for a while. I love the color, and Natori quality and softness is something! The materials and design are lovely. However, this bra and others have convinced me that I may in fact need an E cup. I have the same issue with this one that I've had with most of the ones I've reviewed as far as cup size - slight quad boob on the larger side. This might just be a thing with plunge styles. Based on this, I'm now wondering if my 34D - Wacoal » Embrace Lace Contour ... Bra (853291) actually fits or if I just convinced myself it did. SIGH.

The lace is beautiful. The band is snug and sits level, the gore tacks. I like that the wires are shorter than most of the other bras I've tried lately - no underarm poking or rubbing whatsoever. It's a gorgeous bra, just not quite right. I prefer a wider band in back, and with the slight quadding, I don’t love it.

This was recommended bra and Bratabase hit the nail on the head. For the first time, underwire is comfortable and a gore lies flat And the cups fit both the smaller and bigger breasts And support me because it's a molded cup. I previosly thought only a stretchy lace could fit both gals. My left breast perimeter is 10.5 while the right breast is 9.5
The color is a beautiful summer orange, not a Halloween orange.
My underarm fat is minimal but in some styles unsightly. This higher appex helps somehow and the fat doesn't look bad.
I just need to get used to how high up it is ... on the sides. Not uncomfortable. Just not what I am used to as this is my first bra in my correct size, 34F
Big plus: it holds a nice shape when I lay down.
Edit: turns out this bra is not comfortable for more than a couple hours. The lace bznd is scratchy and the sides are uncomfortable under the arms. It presses into my arms when I put my arms forward to type at my desk.

This is my favorite bra of all time! Fantastic for wide roots with short torso or full on bottom.

See review for same bra in Bright Rose Print. This color fits the same.

I thought I liked how this bra fit me in the past, but it's not working now. This one is black, so I thought it might run small, but the measurements I took of it are pretty comparable to the measurements of my past pink and beige ones in the same size. Wish I had the cup height measure for all of them. Could there be something the measurements aren't accounting for? I feel like the other colors were more full coverage on me. Or maybe cups run more or less shallow by color?

Also possible that I measure a bit larger and am in denial of weight gain https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> putting off measuring.

This bra in black feels classic and sexy, but it's just too small and shallow for me with quad and not staying in my IMF.

I was excited to get this bra. I found a boutique which is probably the only one like it in San Antonio. I'd been wanting it for so long but wasn't ready to spend the money til I found my perfect size. Then I ended up overpaying but I am happy to support local business. I was a little disappointed after wearing it a few times. I don't fill the bottom of the cups to well so there is some wrinkling. The band is quite tight. Maybe something I need to get used to after wearing the wrong size my whole life. The fabric near my armpit digs and chaffs when I reach over one arm to the other. It's not as comfy ad I expected. Otherwise it looks good and works. I probably won't buy another Natori bra though. Which sucks because I wanted to support this brand so dearly after learning about its history.
