This bra is extremely soft! Off the rack, In Bloom is meant for projected/FOB/spaced apart shapes, in my opinion. I altered the gore to make it work, personally, because it was very wide.
It's a good basic bra with a 3-part cup - nothing extremely fancy, and it misses the "industrial beige bra" category by only a shade!

Thank you DressTheTwins ! Out of curiosity, how do you think Wacoal runs? Are they large in the cup? :o These gores are truly wild, too!
It's completely irrational, I know, but the name of the brand actually puts me off! This is indeed a very pretty bra though.
kerniss The fabrics were much more accommodating than Panache/Cleo, and the wires were softer. I would wear a Wacoal again, but Panache/Cleo are banned. :-)
My experience with Wacoal is that they can be really inconsistent on how they fit from one style to another. I can't comfortably fit any of their moulded styles that are my size or the nearest sister sizes, my 2nd favorite bra/ best fit ever is the Wacoal enchantment though. I tried another unlined Wacoal not that long ago and sent it back (forgot the style name and number though...sigh...) because of how uncomfortably high the gore was - go figure, tall roots and still the gore was too tall!! At least the fabrics Wacoal tends to use aren't itchy. :P
This is my first Wacoal in the correct size! I think it's a really pretty style, love the rounded shape from the diagonal seam - my boobs are so squishy that a horizontal seam gives me that attractive "left too long in the mammogram machine" look. If it were a perfect bra, I'd have the tiniest bit more room at the top edge of the cups. This bra is brand new and there's a thin strip of clear elastic along the top edge, it will probably relax a little with some wear. I feel like it has good support; there's a fair amount of coverage in this cup but it doesn't come up too high under the arms. I'd buy it again!
This bra is not owned any more

I thoroughly loved the Wacoal Basic Beauty: ugly, but blissfully comfortable. As my tissue began moving from my armpits to the center of my chest, I could no longer tolerate the gore. So glad you've found a Wacoal you can enjoy :-) :-)
