TL;DR: A nice-looking bra that gives a very uplifted shape. But be warned: shallow cups. Quite a stretchy band which can be comfy for smaller sizes maybe? But for bigger cup sizes - gravity does more work faster than I'd like it to. The bra's color is good for wearing underneath light-colored clothing and the padding hides nipples if weather gets cool.
This is a definite confidence booster when I need to feel all perky and up (at least as long as the band is snug and holds everything in place).
Since my boobs are kinda pendulous even though I'm still young, this bra provides a nice lift and a ... pretty shape. The only downside to this bra's cups' shape is that it's quite unnatural to me and so, whenever the band stretches out, the front sags, the bra band in the back rides up a bit, and the breast tissue doesn't stay in the cups in the way it's intended to (sometimes the wires even kinda sit on top of my breast tissue which isn't satisfactory). I believe if it was unpadded, this problem wouldn't be as noticeable as I've observed that unpadded bras adjust better to my breast shape and don't necessarily slide down in the front whenever the band stretches out a little.
The cups are also pretty shallow. But I've heard that's the case with many molded and padded bras (and with Change bras as such), so I guess no surprise there.
The gore never sits on my sternum, but as long as the band hasn't stretched too much, it feels okay, to my mind.
Even if it's not a perfect fit, I like how it looks on me. After two years of wearing it has stretched out noticeably. I tried sewing the band in so that it's shorter but kinda overdid it and now it's too tight; will have to re-sew it someday if I have the patience. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
