I read probably every review before purchasing this so I'm sad - and surprised - to only be giving this 2 stars. I ended up returning this and here's why: - the description says "superfine mesh overlay", but the mesh was actually also the side of the bra. IMO I don't see this holding up for very long. Way too delicate. I see it possibly stretching, snagging, ripping over time. I was very careful trying it on and I don't think I should have to be careful with an every day bra. - A lot of reviews raved about what this did for smaller chested woman. I, falling into this category, was very excited. Unfortunately, nothing magical happened when I tried on the bra. Because of the mesh twist center I felt like the cups weren't as secure.
I purchased the size I typically wear and have been sized for. I realize I'm the lone bad review so maybe it's worth trying on, but I wouldn't recommend it to a friend.
I am a true 32A and this bra fits really well, and the level of padding is good. It does give a little bump but isn't as aggressive as other padded bras. It is super comfortable and so far the straps stay up and I don't have to tug at it too much. I may buy another color as well.
So glad to have found a 30D in this bra! I've bought 32C in the past, but this is a very stretchy band, so it quickly became too loose. Super comfortable and looks great under tees and sweaters. Will be buying more!
