Got this bra from the semi-annual clearance sale at Victoria's Secret yesterday, and was actually really surprised at how well it fits. The cups are actually deeper than other VS bras I have tried, as I usually need a 32DDD in order to get good tacking of the gore. On this bra, the gore tacks perfectly, without any poking or discomfort I usually get in 30F sizes. The band might be a little loose, because the back band is made out of a really stretchy fabric that I can pull pretty far away from my body, and it feels comfortable on the tightest hook (although that may be ... because I could be suffering from a bit of reverse letterphobia, and prefer a snugger band), but I can only get two fingers under the center gore, and it doesn't ride up, so I don't think this is a huge problem, although it could cause a lack of support for larger sizes, or someone who has more padding around their ribcage. My breasts fill the cups almost perfectly, with the top of the cups digging in just slightly if I breathe in deeply or lean forward, so it won't be very forgiving if I gain some weight. The shoulder straps are a bit wide on me, as most bras are since I have very narrow shoulders, but it doesn't cause any problems with fit or comfort. It also only has two hooks The lace and embroidery doesn't show through thinner tops or t-shirts, although the colors might make it visible on something sheer, and it's comfortable and supportive enough to make a great every-day bra, with the added bonus of being very pretty. Best of both worlds, so I'm really pleased.
