Hasn't set fit

I would recommend this bra for someone who has a long torso and likes a minimizing effect with wide wires and low-medium projection. Probably best for even fullness (I am even-to-FOB). Accommodates tall roots. The gore is the kicker: I do not know anyone who could tolerate the 4 inch tall gore that they have made in this size.
I recently tried a different Chantelle demi (C chic sexy demi) in 32F, but the cups were just a bit too small, so I thought I'd give this 32G a go. Now I know why Chantelle doesn't make most of its bras in 32G: they have no idea how to grade them.

Gore: 4 inches tall. 4 inches! Digs in at the top.
Cups: single layer of mesh. Single vertical seam. Minimized shape. Some loose fabric at the top, but fits well elsewhere. The sides of the cups are digging into my armpits.
Wires: wide. Bra does not lay flat on a table when hooked on the tightest hook (dead giveaway of poor grading).
Straps: not fully adjustable. In fact, the adjustable portion does not even reach the top of my shoulder. I never complain about too-long straps, so this is odd. The cups are already digging into my armpits with long straps anyway, so no sense shortening them. They have done a split strap in the front for sexy effect.
Band: accurately sized.
Fabric: soft. Cute and unique mesh print continues along the band. I ordered the purple (barenecessities sale) and it is accurate to online pictures.
