This bra definitely give some oomph! Very padded and molded so it basically dictates the shapes of my boobs right off the bat. The silhouette from my breast into the cup is OK but not the most elegant transition.
The band is definitely a solid 30 band and therefore a little too stretchy for me. I am wearing this on the tightest hook though I might consider getting this altered. I bought the version of this bra called the "Embrace Lace Petite Pushup" which doesn't have the lace over the cups....this is great so I can wear this bra under some smooth & thinner dark colored shirts. The ... straps tighten just fine, but a little too tight and there is a little rise in the back.
I feel that the cups on this bra hang very "low" overall...there is a nice pushup and a more full shape, but it's not as uplifting feeling as some other bras I have tried. Possibly due to band being just a hair too stretchy.
Overall the bra is very pretty and a nice low-cut t-shirt bra. The cups fit my breasts well with just very minor quadboob after the scoop, but not enough to really notice or make a point about. To alleviate this, I don't use the extra padded cutlets.
For reference, my ideal measurements would be between a 28C/D with a 27.5" underbust and a 31.5" bust. I'm pretty shallow & athletic and used to wear a 32A.
