I'm on a quest for a semi-padded neutral invisible inexpensive balcony bra. Impimi's Adell is close but does not have enough immediate projection for me. Polish overall works for me (narrow, close-set, even but pendulous so functionally FOB, crazy immediate projection), so I am trying different brands. Technically this one fits (barring a little emptiness in the top lace panel which is only visible looking down and doesn't show under clothes), and it is good to know my Ava size. But the wings are very high and rub, plus the upper side of the cup cuts into my armpits and chafes; the cups are quite tall. This makes ... it unwearable, otherwise it is comfortable, supportive and a good fit. I think this is a full-coverage bra that would be better for FOT, splayed or average width. There is stiff boning in the band under the arms to control armpit flab. The wires and gore are narrow. The gore is tall and separates the breasts well, except on my close set rack the gore sits on breast tissue and wold be painful over time. There is enough immediate projection (yay!) and good apex projection, also room toward the gore; the cup is deep and the ratio of 14cm to 25 cm is perfect. The top lace panel is not stretchy, but it is not super firm either. There is elastic sewn in along the top edge. The lace extends through the gore and to the beginning of the band, where it is replaced by strong mesh. The band is firm and does not seem like it would stretch out easily. The straps are quilted and medium stretchy, they are plenty long. The lower padded portion is 2 in parts, with the seam toward the center not the middle. The padding is lightweight and flexible, lined with cotton. The padded part comes well past my nipples, although there seems to be a lot if lace on top too. It's a lot of bra and I am just not used to a full coverage I think! The shape I get is lifted, separated, and rounded at the base with a flattened top since I can't quite fill it out. Its actually a great shape under clothes, looks like Breasts Here. Overall a good quality, attractive daily wear bra. Which I have to return because the dang tall wings and gore. But I like Ava now!
