When I bought it, the cups were ever so slightly hollow at the top and the band was too loose. (I really needed a skintone bra at the time, and the fit on this one is comfortable, even though it isn't perfect.) The line of the top of the cup showed through shirts at times.
That being said, it is extremely comfortable. The wire doesn't poke, the tag doesn't itch, the straps don't cut in, and the fabric is deliciously soft. The outer covering of the cups is a satiny knit that needs some care, though; mine (6 months old, worn frequently) is showing some very slight pilling in ... high-wear areas and a few small snags in the fabric.
The way the back strap is constructed makes it want to crumple up on me; the edges flip over and the main fabric gets small lengthwise wrinkles if I don't take the time to smooth it out. Once smoothed, it stays that way.
It has stretched out some, but not too badly. Since it isn't very snug on me, that may not speak to it's durability, however...
I wouldn't call it a luxury bra exactly, but it is a very nice one. Plain, very functional, and doesn't make light silky shirts ride up. It does stick a bit to some of my clingier t-shirts, but that's the cut of the shirts more than anything else.

If the pictures are yours, it definitely looks like you could go down a band size or two and go up some cup sizes. The underwire seems to be digging into your breasts tissues on the side and the band is riding up.
But I guess you already know that. ^^
