I bought this bra because my slight increase in either size or upper fullness is beginning to show. The cups have some stretch to them in general, particularly at the upper seams of the cups, which is perfect for my needs. The band is tight for a 32, so I can fit into it even though I generally wear a 30 band. The cup width is perfectly narrow for my narrow roots. My only issue with it so far is the wire height, which only seems to be a problem because the wires are less rounded off at their ends than those of some of my other bras. ... It took about 10 hours of wear for me to even really notice it, though. The gore doesn't tack, but it doesn't seem to be a cup volume issue. However, this is still one of the most secure-feeling bras I have.

I was shocked at how nice the bra felt for its price point, particularly since neither of my other two encounters with Pour Moi (even my previous one with this bra in a different color) have been amazing as far as fabric quality. This bra is pretty darn soft and quite well constructed for such a low retail price.

The color of this bra is great! It looks just as light, bright blue as it does in its pictures online, if not more so. I love its simplicity, and the fact that it's not another bra that looks like anything else in my size range. I'm pretty uninterested in/tired of flowery lace, so its geometric lace is a big plus for me. Its only adornments other than the snazzy lace and ruching around the sides of the cups are a fuchsia ribbon that was easily snipped off.
It's definitely a full coverage bra, which would've been off-putting if the print wasn't so appealing.

The shape this bra gives seems like some kind of enigma. It gives a natural shape that's a bit pointy without a tight shirt on, but holds my boobs up so high that I can feel them surrender to gravity upon removal. It's so minimizing that it allows me to wear a button-down top (!) without safety pins (!!!) which is a game-changer for my wardrobe. It seems to have hit the sweet spot for having ample projection and band tightness to actually stay right under my boobs, which is very rare. This is a very strange, satisfactory bra.
No weird plastic smell this time, either.

This bra fit me just about perfectly, and I like the shape it gives with a shirt on. It holds my breasts up to a really great level, but still has a natural shape to it.

However, I don't know if I'll be keeping it. For starters, it feels cheap. It smells like plastic, too, which is simply odd to me. Granted, I bought it because it was so cheap, but after a life of bras with a suggested price of at least $50 Stateside, my tastes have become expensive. (I have sensitive skin, too, so take that as you will.)

Before my body has eased into it, which takes about 2 minutes, I can feel the wires touch my armpits, as though they're ever-so-slightly too high, and am very aware of the tightness of the band, which is comparable to the band of my 32G - Miss Mandalay » Paige. After two minutes, all that fades, but the bra's overall effect is still leaving me on the fence.

This bra is not owned any more
