The expectation of the fit was to be similar to that of the Envy Balconette bra, narrow wires, room at the wire but with a lower gore. The fit was not as expected. Cups were over full and compressive, this bra is shallow at the wire, and the wire is wider than I expected at 6.5 inches. The cups gave me compressed cleavage, my larger side was shoving the wire down and the smaller side had a weird shape like a compressed bullet (shallow round/flattened at the wire with point at apex). The gore is .8 wide but my breasts pushed the top of the wires together. ... Overall the cups are wide and shallow and not a good fit for some one narrow and projected.
The construction of the bra is interesting the wire channel is cut to a V at the center, it's non stretch mesh with a lace overlay for the base of the cup the stretch lace for the top. The side panels/wings are stretch mesh and in the size reviewed is a two hook and eye closure. The straps are a firm elastic with texture and the slides do not do so easily. The colorway is named Emerald Leopard it is more of a Kelly green than an Emerald. ss
This was not the bra for me. It has been returned.
