Read reviews prior to purchasing.  Usually wear 34C but ordered a 36.  Good thing.  It's a workout just to get it on and then trying to fasten it is another issue.  It digs some on the shoulders but since the straps are nice and wide, it's not a big deal for me but might be for others.  Not sure why anyone wearing a C cup bra would want padding! Those were in the trash even before the tags.  I would recommend this bra because of the support but because it's extremely difficult to get on, fasten, and the shoulder issue, I only give it three stars.
