Simone Perele Response: Thank you for your review. If you feel the Trocadero 12P342 offers to much padding, we recommend trying the Simone Perele Celeste Contour Lace Cup Push Up Bra 12M340 (still padded, but less padding) or, for the same shape, but no padding, we recommend trying the Simone Perele Romance Contour Bra with Racerback 115342. You’ll get the same beautiful shape without any extra padding added to the cups. Colleen from New York City
