Very comfortable. This is my go-to, everyday bra. Creates a nice, smooth line under thin fabrics. I can get by with either a D or a DD cup in this bra style, but prefer the DD when I'm a few pounds heavier and the D when my weight is a bit lower.
The band on this does stretch quite a bit, so I'd be interested to try a larger cup size on a 30 band in this style. An older version of this bra that I had developed an issue with the material at the top of the cups rolling outwards after numerous washings, due to the padding ...not really being stitched to the covering material at the top of the cups. They seem to have fixed this issue now with a small, smooth seam at the top of the cup. (You have to look at the inside of the cup to see it, as it is invisible from the front.)
It's not the most exciting, romantic bra in the world, but it is great for discreet, comfortable support that you can wear all day. Read more 76 more words
This fits better than any of my other bras, but that might not be saying much since I just moved away from the smallest bras VS could offer, in favor of actual bras that fit! This seems to fit fine but I do need to readjust throughout the day. The back of the band rides up slightly on me (I have a 27" under bust measurement). The cups fit well, which is great because usually if the wire goes all the way around my wider breasts, the cups aren't filled in the center or the top.
All in all, I can wear this bra most of the day comfortably. I usually take it off when I get home though because I don't want to wear it longer than 8-10 hours typically.
Very comfortable and flattering bra. Not the most lift ever, but I don't always want them hoisted to the sky. Lace pattern apparent under tight shirts. I have this in 2 colorways.
This bra fit snugly around the band but doesn't fit at all in the gore. The gore sits on top of my boobs, which are pushed together underneath. The straps are very comfortable and I feel like I have good support despite the lack of gore fit. Nonetheless, I am going to return it and look for a better fit -- probably starting with a step up in cup-size.
This bra is nice under a t-shirt, but it doesn't do much to 'shape' the breasts. It's very pretty and comfortable, but doesn't do much enhancement. Natori Feathers Contour Plunge (730023)
I love the feel of this bra and it ALMOST fits. The band is too large, but the cup is only fractionally off-- I suspect that Natori's just don't work for me.
This is the best-fitting bra I own, by far. It's great for my shallow, wide boobs. It's the only bra I own where the top edge of the cup doesn't make a visible ridge under clothing. The only thing I don't love is that the band bites in a bit; I prefer firmer bands because they don't do that. But I'll happily put up with that given how much I love the rest of the bra.
The wires tend to sit too low under my boobs, and the cup wrinkles on the bottom when I put them where they're supposed to go. Furthermore, the underwire doesn't span the entire cup, and it's much too short on the outside. The outside of the wire pokes my sides which is painful after extended periods of wear. The wire is wider and shallower than it needs to be to fit my boobs.
Pros: provides wonderfully sturdy support and controls your breasts during active wear; ultra cute for a sports bra; option of racerback or straightback straps (bc the straps are on adjustable invisible hooks). Cons: cuts into your shoulders when in straight back strap set up; fine when racerback.
The bra feels nice at first, but after a while, the underwire started digging in a bit at the side. This might be because the cup is a bit small, so this bra might fit a 30C better.

Oh how I wish I was still in the Natori Feathers Contour Plunge (730023) range! This bra is awesome - it has a low center gore and a flexible top edge, so it's great for a tall root. It's nude colored and while lacy, it doesn't show under even thin tops. So sad they don't make it in larger cups. =(
Interesting clear plastic center gore. Mesh material is soft and comfortable. Band was too large for my 28 inch ribcage and cups were a size too small. Seemed better for shallower breasts.
I just got properly measured and fitted at Nordstrom and discovered I am 29" under bust, not 27.5" as I thought. I tried on several bras in my new size, 30DDD, and it was a revelation. This bra is a dream. The cups encase my breasts perfectly, the straps are close enough together, and the band is secure but not tight. Creates a supported, smooth look under clothing. Very pretty too!
I really wanted to keep this one!! The lacey upper sling things are really nice, comfortably forming a tapered edge between the bra and the boobs. But unfortunately, on me the 32DDD was just slightly too small and made my larger left boob bulge out. And double-unfortunately, this bra doesn't come any bigger than a DDD in 32, or in a 30 or smaller band. :C
