This bra is beautiful! I love the sheer mesh combined with the embroidery and silver color, it's striking in person.
The fit is very good, right in line with what I've come to expect from Fantasie. I did think this felt a bit looser than usual in the band, and sure enough it measures more like a 36 band (37.5 stretched, 29 resting). Not really a deal breaker for me, although I'll probably wear it on the middle or tightest hooks. The shape is good as well; I wasn't sure what to expect from a single vertical seam, but it gives pretty good immediate projection and a nice ... shape somewhere between "perfectly round" and "natural teardrop." My only complaint, and it is pretty minor, is that the texture of the lace detailing definitely shows under thin shirts. It creates a bit of a tension issue between the mesh and the embroidered sections, it gives my breasts almost a quilted appearance under thin shirts.
This bra has some really nice details. There is really nice embroidery up the front strap edge- it almost makes me want to show my bra straps on purpose! The gore overlaps. There is a side sling. The gore has a small silver bow with a little gemstone. This bra makes me feel like a fancy lady- a little classy, a little sexy. I'm already a bit sad that the matching underwear are ridiculously overpriced, because this is meant to be seen and I'd love to have the set!

I have this bra in the 'Butterscotch' colourway (a warm beige), but the silver is even lovelier - it looks very sophisticated!
