I own this bra in several colours.  Too bad its so expensive because I would own multiples in each colour if I could.  I suspect its been discontinued because I cannot find the white in my size in any store or on amazon... this kind of inventory issue usually indicates the end of a product line.  I am a 38d and this bra gives me the most amazing shape under my clothes.  My chest is held high but not in a pointy, bullet-shaped way like some very supportive bras.  Its really prettty, too.  I machine wash it in a lingerie bag, and that works just fine: absolutely no issues.  Chantelle generally makes good quality lingerie but I consider this bra the jewel in their crown.
