This bra is very soft and comfortable. The cups are made of a flexible memory foam, the gore is also made of a foam-like material, and there is padding in the shoulder straps as well. Like other Natori bras I've owned, I find the band to have quite a bit of stretch. It is probably looser than is ideal for me, but I am anticipating that my ribcage will expand during this pregnancy. The cups give a very rounded shape, and the foam definitely adds some volume, which I don't mind but isn't necessarily what I'm looking for. This definitely gives a more ... matronly look, particularly in the cafe color, but it is most definitely comfortable.
Update: After wearing for a few hours, I noticed that the bra was shifting around a bit. As I have noticed in the past, Natori makes bras with very stretchy bands. I probably really should be in a 34 band in this bra. Truthfully, I felt a little rushed by the salesperson at a specialty bra store, who seemed to hold to the belief that sizing is consistent across brands, which is definitely not true. This bra is quite a bit bigger than the 36DD Chantelle bra I bought the same day in both the band and the cups. I noticed that the wires are also more flexible on this bra than on other bands, which I think resulted in a tendency for them to splay out more as I was wearing it.
