5.0 out of 5 starsPerfect Fit, Same as My Size in the "T Shirt Bra"

I ordered the Le Mystere sports bra in the same size I order for the famous Oprah Le Mystere "t shirt bra" and it fits perfectly. The t shirt bra is too structured for hot summer outdoor activities like gardening, and the underwires tend to gravitate upward and poke out through the bra fabric. This sports bra has some structure but balances that with a softer more casual feel. I will keep an eye on how the underwire performs over time - hopefully it will stay IN the fabric where it should stay.
This is not the fault of Le Mystere but I must mention this part of the shopping on Amazon experience: Immediately after I ordered this bra, I got an ad served on Facebook from a non-Amazon company that was also not Le Mystere. That ad included my bra size in the ad content! So be aware that a great deal of personal information is being shared across advertisers when you purchase online. I may be seeking other places to buy personal stuff in the future, not Amazon.
So, I want to preface by saying that I use this bra in my pole dancing classes. There's so many cute tops that my classmates wear that downright will not hold in my chest (32G). I was feeling a bit discouraged because I needed a mix between a high impact bra and something that remained relatively pleasing to the eye. I'd come across this bra a few times in my search and shied away from it because reviews had said that it didn't function well as a sports bra. I ended up ordering this bra and some Panache bras to try on. While the Panaches did offer more support this one by far looked the best. For me personally, for what sport I'm doing, it works perfectly and it looks nice. Minor adjustments are made during class but for once I had a top that didn't make me look bulky on top. The wire gives appropriate support while the mesh keeps my chest from falling out when I'm doing inverts. The straps are thick but not too thick. Overall I'm pleased and I've now ordered it in two colors.
Update 9/28/2020: I've received both bras and I love them. Not only do I wear them in class they are perfect tshirt bras too. I ordered my second one in a 32F and found it's a little more snug and supportive.
3.0 out of 5 starsNot supportive enough for a sports bra.

I like this bra, but I am so glad I did not pay full price for it. It is not nearly as supportive as I need a sports bra to be, as I wear a 38 DDD/E. It is really comfortable, I will give it that. But more of a wear around the house while cleaning bra.
Every time I’m measured for a bra fitting I’m told I’m a specific size. The style of bra however almost NEVER allows me in that size and I have to size up. I love this bra because the cup shape is more v shape, versus full cup coverage. I’m fuller towards the side aka side boob. I don’t require the full Demi coverage due to the shape of my body. When I’ve tried to buy full coverage sports bras I’m swimming in the front and don’t fill them. This bra is comfortable, has great support, and the shape isn’t a full-Demi.
