I love that this bra is both beautiful and sexy which is hard to find when you're D cup and up. Most bras for fuller busted women are built for function and just aren't very feminine and pretty. I found the cups to be true to size but the band a bit on the short size compared to my other bras in this size. Not too tight but just a bit snug. As for support, well there isn't too much. It gives my girls a nice shape and perkiness but there is a bit of jiggle when I move about. So I kind of look like I'm braless beneath my clothes but with nice shaped perky breasts. Although it said handwash, I fastened the hooks and placed it in a mesh laundry bag and washed in cold on the gentle cycle and hung to dry. The lace held up well. I'm giving this one 4 stars as I would definitely purchase again because it gives a nice shape and is so pretty yet comfortable too.
