I own many bras by Wacoal and I have never been disappointed. I purchased this one for the great support. I sometimes want a bra that has a lot of stretch, but depending on the clothing, such as more tailored clothing, I want a bra that is going to keep me in one compact space. For the same reason, I like this bra for having straps that do not stretch. The stretch is the first thing to deteriorate in any garment.  There is no slippage in the straps which I especially like. This is not the kind of bra that I want to show off as being "sexy." It is a utilitarian part of my wardrobe. I have many other sexy pieces of lingerie which I enjoy wearing. I like the seaming in the bra as well. The seaming is at the apex of the bra. It does look somewhat "pointy" without clothing, however with the right blouse it defines your mid section and gives the illusion of a longer torso.

It is important to get a good fit with any bra and this is no exception, especially because it does hold you in at all the right places.  If it is too small, you will see some bulging. I think if this bra gets poor reviews regarding comfort, some may be due to purchasing the incorrect size. I have already purchased a second one in black which I think looks less "retro," than the Cappucino color.
