My first wire-free and I love it! This is a very comfortable bra and well-made. I can even wear t-shirts and look smooth. This particular model has just a slight bit of discrete padding at the bottom of the cup which gives you just enough lift without looking all pushed up. I did try the one without this little bit of padding and did not like the fit - it is also called Elements of Bliss, so if you want the lift, make sure you get the correct model number 1298. I also have "side boobs" and this bra accommodates for that. My bra for years has been an underwire Calvin Klein, 36C, but in this Elements of Bliss bra I found a 38B to be the better fit.
