I got this bra from another Bratabase member.
It is very pretty yellow bra with no padding.

It doesn´t fit perfectly. The wires are wide enough for me and they are very comfortable but the band is too big and the cups are slightly too small. There is very small quadboob effect. The fit is decent though, if I use the tightest hooks.

I know 28 band would be better, but I wonder which cup it should be then. If I go see others´ Lucy bras Bratabase says that 28F would be too big in the cups for me! How can it be, if 30E is slightly too small?? I tried to judge based on measured cup depths, how they vary between 28 band and 30 band. I do not get it...
Anyway, cups are the right shape in this bra for me. I will keep it for it is so pretty, and try to live with these few issues https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

EDIT. I altered the band so that it doesn´t stretch so much, and now it´s good. I also think after wearing the bra that the cups are just fine https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

EDIT2. I realise now that the cups are not the right shape for me, after all. They cut in and produce slight quadboob but if they were bigger, I think there would be gaping where my nipples are.

EDIT3. Boobs gone bigger (!!), cups now definitely too small.

This bra is not owned any more

• Bratabase isn't always right with its suggestions.
  I recently bought the yellow Lucy in 28F. If I got more time, in some days maybe, I will submit some pictures :) My mum got it in 30E, which cuts into my breasts slightly... Also, depending on my cycle, I sometimes fit into the 28FF and the again in the 28F. It's all not that easy.

  Great it fits you now!

  28 F Lucy is more generous in the cups than the 30E. If the 30E is a little small in the cups and a little big in the band, then a 28F would be better. Like it is for me. :)

  That sounds odd! Do you know if it is so for all the colour variations?
  Anyway, I won´t be trying Lucy again, I think the shape is not good for me.

• I will be measuring mine and putting the colors in my reviews. Right now I am doing the 2 30E Lucy bras. There is definitely a difference.
