The band is wide and comfortable and the fabric is very soft and cups not shaped in any way or reinforced with extra elastic, making it very comfortable and probably suitable if you need a bra to sleep in, but for day wear on larger breasts the fabric is too soft to provide support. As the fabric stretches over the course of a couple of hours, my breasts droop over the band and the "racing back" rides up to place excessive weight against the back of my neck. Very soft and comfy initially, but require "dragging down" at the back after a while to relieve neck pressure, & I suspect really only suited to C cup size and lower. Not great for my DDs. Can't fault the softness though & the boxers are fantastic. I was really pleased to be able to get matching boxers & bralette, but will be sticking with just the boxers in future.
