Way too wide cups for me. The wires also get wider when the band is stretched.

Gorgeous- the best fitting bra I've ever owned. The chocolate color is great on a redhead, and the lace detail is pretty but gets the job done. Awesome bra.

This bra felt exceptionally deep to me, for a 32H. I had trouble filling it out and the tops wrinkled for me. I am fairly even in shape, but this is *very* open on top and probably best for someone with a lot of volume there.

Well, this bra does not quite fit me. The cups are a bit loose, and the center gore is too high and digs in a bit uncomfortably, although it isn't horrible. This is a far better fit than the old 38Cs that I used to wear, and the cups are nice and wide for me (I have shallow boobs). The underwire comes up nice and high, so no side-boob escapes. If you like wide wires and a high gore, I would recommend this, but I prefer narrow and slightly lower myself.
The fabric is silky soft, and the lace is comfortable as well. The straps are cushy, and they stay put.
It also gives me a funny shape, but I am fairly certain that is a fit issue, rather than a fault in the bra.

So, this is the comically large bra which has been floating around on here for quite some time. I figured I would give it a try for kicks and giggles. It's actually not bad. I love the nylon mixed into the fabric making it feel so very nice and soft. The wrinkling everywhere is not noticeable under the top I wore today, and the wire jabs mid armpit instead of at the front, making it slightly more comfortable in that regard. Call me crazy, but I'm going to put it in my rotation for now. I think I'll keep my eye out for one of these in a 34J/JJ or so.

Really high wires at the side, lots of gape at the top of the cup. wires dig in sternum.

This is a pretty bra, but has too much projection for me.

I loved this bra! The band fit snug and the cups were just wide enough. It gave me lots of support while still looking pretty, cute design! It didn't provide the best coverage, but it was my go-to under loose fitting tops.

This is a good bra and definitely will be worn regularly, but it's not as great as I had hoped it would be.
Pros:
-Awesome fabric
-Looks gorgeous, under clothes and by itself. Great shape, right amount of lace-fabric ratio, holds me in well.
-Right band size. I LOVE the feeling of a well-tacked gore.
-Pretty comfortable.
Cons:
-Center gore is too wide and isn't comfortable because of it. I will definitely eventually take it in, because as a result of the wide center gore, the fullest part of the cup sits in the wrong place. Once I've done that I think the rest of the bra will work much better for me.
-It doesn't have ... a full band around the bottom, which means that the cups sit a little too low on my and I have to reposition my breasts throughout the day to keep the bra from slipping down. I am very short-waisted in general, and I lose my waist entirely if my bra slips down.
-Cups are too full on top, maybe slightly not full enough on the bottom. There's TONS of extra wrinkling lace. Though admittedly, it fills up when I bend over because my breasts are soft and mobile.
EDIT: 8 months later: with more experience, I think I can say that this bra is too shallow and too tall for me. It may also be slightly big in the cups, but it's very difficult to tell because the shape is so wrong for me.

Panache Harmony Balconette 30KK White:
This is the worst bra I've ever tried. Terrible shape incompatibility. Harmony has very wide wires that are also extremely tall on the sides. I need rather tall cups / wires but they were just overkill on me. The cup depth I measured is even bigger than I need but the whole bra ended up being shallow dues cups just being very tall / wide. This bra is just sizing gone overboard. I cannot imagine it fit anyone that actually is in the 30K-30KK-32K size range properly.
I got some empty space on top and bottom. The wire channels were hardly padded and cut in like crazy. I never wore a bra that was more uncomfortable. After 1 hour I had to rip that instrument of torture from my body.
The band is quite snug and has not much stretch in it.
The only good thing: the cup fabric is rather smooth, I don't mind that kind of fabric.

Thanks, this was helpful, almost for an unintended reason. I think I might need to look into a higher, wider center gore and found this post and the picture really helped me see how the gore sits. I appreciate all the detail in the post.
