This is my fourth bra from Understance. Compared to the others, the band is firmer and runs much more true to size. It is definitely a full coverage bra and comes up pretty high on me, however this was surprisingly not an issue. Normally I struggle with this style as I have short roots, however on this bra, the upper fabric somehow doesn't gape. The design is beautiful.

The size I bought was one or two cup sizes too small, but the shape seems projected enough and overall I think I would like this bra if I got the right size. It's very supportive with a lot of lift. However it's a very firm bra with zero stretch in the cups, the inner mesh is not particularly soft, and the over-the-top embroidery shows under most shirts, so it's not a very good everyday candidate.

This bra looks great and I really wanted it to work, but it didn't quite fit. I don't fill out the bottom of the cup. The wire sits below my IMF at the bottom. It starts out in the right place when I scoop and swoop, but moves lower as I move around. Trouble-shooting on the Understance website suggests that this is because the bra is not deep enough or possibly because the cup is too tall. However, it is advertised as a very projected bra and I'm not experiencing any gaping at the top. So I'm not sure what is going on. You can see the wrinkling in the bottom of the cup in my side view picture.
