This bra varies in size by the color. I have the rose/gray one and the purple one.

The rose/gray bra fits well in the band (though it does tend to feel uncomfortable as the day progresses, but I'm used to wearing a band larger than I need), the purple is uncomfortably tight in the band as soon as I put it on. I'll probably get an extender which will fix that problem until the band stretches a bit.

On both, the cup width is perfect. The problem that I'm running into, is the same one I have with all bras larger than a C cup: the underwire is tall and pokes me in the armpit.

I'm a fan of Gilligan & O'Malley bras. Until they changed their straps from the fully adjustable to the 1/2 adjustable, G & O'M bras were my go-to. When I saw this bra on ebay, I was ridiculously happy.

The straps are fully adjustable, and not too wide or narrow. The wing height is perfect. The band is just right. The cups have just the right amount of lining. The only problem is that the cups are just too small for me.

So, back to ebay this goes. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":-(" />

This is a very lovely, albeit SHEER, bra. However, this bra is just too big overall.

The cups are wrinkly at the tops; the straps only adjust halfway, which I could use just a smidge more adjusting room; and the band is way big on me.

The underwires seem to be the perfect height (no poking!), but they're a bit wide. The width isn't too much of a problem, though there's the potential for it becoming annoying as the day progresses. Another problem with the underwires is that they dig in painfully under my breasts. Once they bra is adjusted, it seems to be ok. Then again, I really only tried it on.

Oh boy. What a horrible bra for me.

The cups are super padded with those thick "lift" pads at the base. But the cups fit me oddly, so it's giving me a weird pointing-out-to-the-sides effect. And the cups are too small, so quad-boob galore.

The front of the bra has a lace embellishment that travels up the first half of the straps. The strap part of the lace ended up being baggy and weird looking.

It's a pretty enough bra, and I'm sure it will make someone very happy some day.

You know...out of all of the bras I've bought online over the past month, this is probably the last one I expected to fit.

This is the bigger-cup version of the Dream Angels Victoria's Secret Dream Angels Demi Bra (216-025)

The cups are lined (which is my preference) and there's a little bit of lace that runs along the outer edge of the cup, which I could do without, but it's not a deal breaker. The best part is that the wires don't cut into my armpits! The wires aren't too wide either.

The band is a stretchy lace and it's tight, but not uncomfortably so. I have some armpit fat (migrated tissue? I don't know) squeezing up from the band, but I'm the only one who's seeing it, so whatevs. And, yes, it looks as nice as it sounds.

So far, 5 hours into the day, it's still comfortable. Bonus: it looks like and holds everything without looking like an old-lady bra!

After payday, I'm going to get a bunch of these in different colors.

This bra is *so close* to being perfect. The wing height is perfect - no armpit poking. The underwire isn't too wide, so it's not traveling to my back. The gore sits right against my sternum. The only problems are that the cups are too big (which can be solved) and the straps are just a bit too far apart (I'm not sure if this can be solved).

The bra cups are sheer, with a bit of lining. The pictures I've seen online make it look as though the bra has more lining to it than it does. I'm accustomed to much thicker cups, so that may take a bit of getting used to.

I'm going to try a 36E and see if that solves at least the cup problem.

I'm about 4 hours into my first day wearing this bar. Here's how I feel so far:

I tried this bra in a 36DDD (what I measured as) and it was a smidge too big in the cups. This size feels perfect so far. The underwires don't seem to be poking my armpits; however, the cups feel like they may be too wide? The underwire width isn't bothering me at the moment, so I can't complain too much.

I'm used to wearing padded bras, but this one doesn't feel too exposing. It's just the right amount of thickness.

The line where the lace and the main ... bar part meet up sits a little strangely, but it doesn't appear to be too noticeable under a t-shirt. Something more form-fitting may have an issue.

The gore isn't sitting flat against my sternum, but it's less than 1 cm away.

The band is so comfortable! It's not cutting into my backfat painfully, which is a definite win.

-----------------------------
I've been wearing these bras for a couple of weeks now, so I think I have a better feel for them.

The good news is that the band still feels nice and comfy. No complaints about that whatsoever!

My biggest complaint is the underwires digging into my armpits (negating my first review). That's pretty much a constant battle. If they were just a little bit shorter, I don't think it would be an issue.

The second problem is the center gore. It's so tall on me, that it always feels like it's pointing outward when I'm sitting for a while.

The third problem is that I think the straps are too wide set for me. I feel like I keep adjusting them and can't find that sweet spot.

A fourth, and completely superficial, issue is that I feel these bras make my boobs look small.

The more I wear these bras, the more I'm realizing they're just not right for my body.

The band felt good, but the cups were just a bit too big for me. The underwires hit me about halfway to my back, and were high up in my armpit causing the hated armpit poking.

This bra was just too small all over.

This bra is so pretty to look at, but it fits weird. I know it's too big for me, so I'm taking that into consideration, but the cups are just weird with the lace that goes over the cups. It's a shame, really.
