Azure/plum colourway, bought used.
First the aesthetics: this bra is so simple but looks amazing. I wasn't really sold on the satin-y cups when I saw pictures of it, but in person it's very smooth and pleasing to the touch.
Construction: the band definitely is stretchy and in my opinion is definitely a band size larger than what's on the label. The cups are tall and shallow but I think the width was mostly okay for me (or I just didn't notice the wires much). The bottom of the cup is shallow. I usually wear 30G in Cleo unpadded bras, and I got this in 30H. I also ... have a CK Emily in 30GG that has the right cup volume, for reference. The cup volume in 30H right for me, I think, but my boobs don't seem to like halfcups in general because they're rather soft.
Fit: Gore didn't tack - probably a combination of shallow cups and loose band. I had no issues with cups or straps or wings poking/chafing, which is a plus. I usually have to deal with the cups cutting into my armpits in bras but this one was fine.
