No information on Bratabase for this one and the reviews on Amazon weren't helpful (they seldom are), so I just had to try it.
The details:
Very stretchy spacer cups; forgiving for uneven sizes or fluctuations in fullness. (Spacer fabric isn't the best for concealing prominnt nipples but packs in a suitcase easily.) Cups seem to run a little bigger than other Wacoals I have tried (or maybe it's because they are So stretchy); more open than expected. It has an inner mesh sling along the outer edge of the cups. The neckline edge is finished with a narrow stretch trim.
The double layer band is stretchy lace on the outside, ... mesh on the inside, with 3/8" typical elastic edges. Tall wings taper to two hooks in the back. Seems to run true to size; (but the angle of the band also seemed to accentuate back flab.) It has a full band in the front; the lace under the cups would not lay flat, curled up toward the cup.
The gore is only 3/4" wide and the top of it is angled into a sharp "V", which shortens the overall height. (The measurement I listed was taken from the lowest point of the V.)
The 1/2" straps are fully adjustable in the back. The front of the straps are decorated with a small piece of leafy-looking lace; a nice accent to an otherwise plain bra.
Bottom line: a rounded shape but not much lift due to the stretch cups and thin elastic on the band; plus the narrow straps didn't help either. Comfortable enough but unimpressed.
