I really desperately want this bra to work for me, because there are so many things I love about it. It’s so comfortable. It’s got good immediate projection. The wires are nice and narrow (5 inches at this size). I love the 3 hooks. The straps are set close together. I love the shape it gives me. I think it’s cute, too.

Alas, it’s just too tall for me. On my larger side, it works fine, I think because I have soft-ish tissue that ultimately kind of gets pushed up into that area. But on my smaller side, there’s an empty pocket at the top that’s honestly not a ... big deal when I’m standing straight. It’s too evident to me when I start to move around, though.

I wore it for a while in 30DD, and the cups are too small. I’m debating pulling that size out and trying it again, anyway, because it’s just so dang comfortable. (Edited: I tried it. It’s just too small.) I tried 30DDD a while back, and the band was oddly tight (like, it was weird how small the band was), which is why I tried the 32DD, instead.

I usually wear the Panache Cari in 32DD, which works fine. It’s just not nearly as comfortable as this bra. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

This bra is a great comfortable bra with wide padded straps, full coverage, so there is no spilling out. The band is wide and comfortable and soft. Unlined, which means no moulded cups.
The bra size was true to the first recommended-size of the Brand, from this website and from all of the measurements done correctly with knowledge of breast root.
The band is tight but I have no complaints because that's what gives the lift. It doesn't interfere with my breathing, I do not notice it but I'm sure people will and I only edited this review to let you know this fact after reading the other reviews. I didn't even think to put it.

This is a very feminine bra. Cups are wide though and I will need a cup size down. Wires are high on the side too. Has a narrow gore that works great for me as I'm center full and close set. Straps are pretty wide too but don't feel uncomfortable. Also, it won't work under thinner shirts as the lace is bumpy and the back band is sorted of pleated/ruffled.

This bra was such a a let down. I didn't realize it has think padding like a push up bra. Does not work for my close set center full chests as I have lots of spillage. Cups are too wide and run small. Fabric is nice but just too much padding for me. Wires are a bit too high on the sides too.

Lace feels smooth and it's stretchy. Feels comfy but the cups are too big. Gore is narrower than most and works for my close set chest. I could possibly go down a band size since I'm on the middle hook. Def going to try in a 32D and a 30E. It's also double lined. Also, it looks smooth under a knit top! I could pull off this 32DD but I still want to try a cup down.

This bra looks beautiful, and I love the shape of it. It’s close to the bullet bra look I’m going for without being overly dramatic. The band is quite snug, so some may consider going up a band size and down a cup. A 34D would probably fit me more comfortably, but I like the support of the 32 band. I appreciate the not-stretch straps. They feel very sturdy and won’t stretch out over time. I have noticed a bit of itchiness from the lace and trim detailing, but I hope the fabric will soften as I was and wear it.

I am shallow, have about 4 fingers' worth of space between my breasts, and have slightly tuberous breasts (there is some projection, but not a lot).

I was advised to go up a band size in this style because it runs small. (I don't even know if this comes in a 30?) 32s are usually moving around and sliding all over me, but this bra stays put, which is good.

I think it is probably either due to the ribcage proportions on the 32 or the assumption of someone's height wearing this bra, but I have some excess cup fabric (for lack of a better word) near the armpits/tail of spence on each side. After wearing this bra for several hours, the excess fabric near my armpits causes chaffing. The fabric bunches. I'm wondering if I was taller (I'm 5'1") if this would be an issue.

The underwire moves a bit and pinches when I slouch. I think the band is too wide (for reference, underbust is 29.5 loose and 28.5snug). The cups are soft and fit well. The straps are a little wideset for narrow shoulders.

If the cups were closer together, this would be a good fit for me. This bra isn't glamorous but it's comfortable enough to wear something strapless and dance. It stays in place decently.

Rose dust color. Band is too loose and left cup, my smaller side, wrinkles a bit at the top. The straps seem a bit too far to the sides and cuts in under my arms (which is a common problem for me). I may try a 30DDD to tighten up the band, potentially eliminate cup being used as band to make tight enough, and bring the sides in a little bit so they hopefully wouldn't cut in.

Mahogany rose color. Band felt too loose. Cups wrinkle at the top. Underwire seems okay but can't tell if it tacks fully.

This one runs big in my opinion. Wacoal sizing is all over the place in my experience. I have a few in 32D, and sometimes 30DDD or 32DD or 32DDD work too. Other times they don't fit at all.

The cups on this one are pretty deep at the top and center. For me this meant lots of empty space at the top of the cup.

I had this bra in 32D and decided to size up. The 32DD became much taller and fuller coverage unfortunately, and I only really needed deeper cups. I measured a whole inch of difference in cup height and wire length between the two. I like the bra but it seems I am stuck between sizes.

I was so sad when this beautiful bra didn't fit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> it so soft, light weight, elegant and the color is wonderful ( I have the blue one) I liked it so much I wear it even knowing I have to pull all day long!! My wonderful husband bought it for me, so I couldn't try it on before purchasing it, I am pretty sure the 32 DDD would have fit just right!! It runs a bit on the smaller side. The back is sooooo comfortable!!

Update February 5 2017:
I am not so sad anymore, since I started exercising 5 months ago ... I lost about 18 lbs. and maybe two cup sizes ( that is not good news) and this beautiful bra now fits almost perfectly https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> iam 43 years old and my Brest tissue has changed a lot, exercise has done wonderful things not only in my body, but in my life, but loosing Breast tissue in not something that I wanted, it just comes with the territory, most of my beautiful bras don't fit anymore, but this one does now. I still think it does run on the smaller side.
Great quality bra.

Love this bra! Looks great (though a little simple), is super comfortable, and is smooth under almost all clothing. The thinner, less structured cups took a little getting used to, but it's not so thin it becomes obscene. Wore out pretty quickly, however. I got a solid year of good usage out of it, but then on it started feeling loose and a bit saggy. It didn't have the same look anymore. Of the two I bought at the same time, the nude color actually wore out more quickly than the black for some reason.

I wore this bra for a special event. The band is firm, wide and the top and bottom of the band are lined with something grippy ( silicone?) to make it stay in place. The bra stayed well and did not require adjusting. I bought the bra knowing the cup was too small because I was in a pinch, but it did ok. The cups seem true to size, but a bit shallow, which I find common in molded strapless bras. The cups are thin but firm. It does have 5/8" detachable straps as well.

This bra is not attractive. Some might say it is downright ugly. The important thing is that this bra does. not. move. A 4 hook strap and silicone on top and bottom holds things in place. So much so that on a somewhat sweaty, not full of movement day I actually wound up with a blister on my side after wearing it all day. So now it's reserved for special occasions. Not much to look at, but it does the job.

Cups and wires are wide on this bra. I will have to go down to a D cup. I like the design even though it's not the softest material. Gore feels good and is not too wide for me. I like the shape it gives so I may just try a cup size down. It would show under thin knit shirts FYI so best for shirts that are forgiving.

Despite the cups measuring small the fabric is stretchy so I will need to go a cup size down as it wrinkles on the sides and top. Feels comfortable enough and sides are a tad high for me. Gore is fairly narrow and works for my center full and close set chest. Sides are a bit to much for me as I like a shorter wing.

I'm surprised how comfy this feels. Molded cups have a soft squishy feeling and the band is very soft. I originally liked this bra but after trying it on again I just can't handle how much spillage I get in the middle. It was comfy but it's not going to work for me. Also, I'm on the loosest hook so I know I couldn't size down to a 30 band.
