Pros: comfortable, soft, well made
Cons: super stretchy band, lace and zebra stripes pattern

I altered this bra's band. It's still a bit loose. The fit isn't horrible any more, however, which I think is quite telling. The cups provide a nice shape.

But lace and zebra stripes? Just...why? I like the lace though.

This bra's measurements have been altered

Altered band,

The pattern isn't my style, but it was on sale and the style I liked. This bra was fantastic minus the band. It's very soft, comfortable, and has a minimal and gentle centre gore. The band is way too stretchy and also pulls on the cups when it stretches. I'm thinking it may be worth altering the band.

This bra has been worn many, many times, and I don't think it has aged well aesthetically. The band is stretchy, the cups aren't as shapely as they once were (or maybe they aren't sitting right?), and it's rather discoloured (I think it started off nude, and is now rather pinky-beige). There aren't any loose threads/holes/signs of wear otherwise, though. It's definitely well-made overall.

It was great in its prime. It was comfortable, soft, had great shape, and a pleasingly minimal centre gore that didn't irritate my sternum.

This bra may be good practice for altering bands.

At one point, these were the only bras I wore. Unfortunately learning about the swoop and scoop ruined them all for me as they all quadboobed afterwards. I tried them on again after more than a year and--surpise!--no quadboob! It fits a whole lot better than I thought it would.

Pros: thick wings, gore doesn't dig in, comfortable, soft
Cons: sometimes the shape of the cups is weird for my breasts, band is gigantic for my frame

This bra is definitely worth an alteration.
