This is a balconette-style, multi-way bra. The straps sit on the wide side, so if you have problems with straps under your armpits, stay away. The wires are very very firm and barely move when stretched. This is different from many other Parfaits I've tried (the Leslie and both Kimberly styles have very soft flexible wires). I'm guessing the wires are very firm since this bra could function as a strapless. Typical wide gore and hourglass/east-west appearance of Parfait bras.

Unfortunately it is too big for me, so I can't really comment much more on the fit. I had hoped to wear it as a strapless, and while the band is tight enough to stay up, the inch or so that I can crush at the top of the cups (its at least a size or two too big) means that it won't work for me.

This bra is not owned any more
