Didn't fit

Oh how I wished this bra would fit me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> It's so pretty, such lively colors.

I received it in mail from an e-store in UK. The padded fabric was quite wrinkled and seemed to not straighten out well when I tried straightening it with my hands - when I let it just lie, it wrinkled up again, similar to how I received it.

When I put it on, the cups seem of a good volume overall - there are small empty spaces in the top of the cup when I move around (and the tops of the cups seem a bit wrinkled...) but when I stand with a straight back, they fill up quite nicely. The gore doesn't tack, but if I push it to my sternum with my hand, there is no overflow in cups; rather the top of the cups fill up perfectly and don't wrinkle anymore. I believe that this could be a sign that this bra would fit better on someone who has shallower / more FoT breasts (I'm projected / FoB).

The saddest thing really is the band. It's such a nice, lightweight fabric, but how stretchy it is! I bought this in the band size 30 because I already had one very well fitting Freya bra in size 30GG and also I had heard suggestions that 28 bands for the most part could be too tight for me. Now I'll know that if there's a "80 cm" written in the "stretched band" measurement of a bra on this site, I'll have to doubt if it could fit me, no matter what's written on the label. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />

Even with all these issues, the bra looks good with a well-fitting top on. Now I'm considering shortening the bra band myself...hope I'd manage to do it well! I really don't want to send it back; it looks pretty.

This bra is not owned any more

Fit information

On Sep 2016

Most problematic thing: this bra has a VERY stretchy band. It slides around pretty easily. Funny enough but it doesn't really ride up in the back that much; the front just slides lower and bunches up the lower front fabric. Also, gore doesn't tack.

Center gore placement:
Doesn't lie flat against sternum
Top of the cup:
Wrinkles, can't quite fill it
Band fit:
The back of the bra is not at the same level as the front (rides up)

This bra didn't fit her, but these did
