Didn't fit

Very short-waisted, center full, close set, immediately projected, shallow apex projection, full on bottom, and somewhat narrow breasts....

Holy Snowball, Batman! I can painlessly run in this bra. You read that correctly. I just chased my young daughter around the house x 3 in this bra. Whoa. I can't believe it. Finally, I feel supported in a wired bra.

After feeling painfully constricted in a 32G La Femme a month ago and admitting not even my wireless bras are comfortable now, I endeavoured to try La Femme again. The 32 band is no longer tight in this 32H. Just a reminder for myself: if a bra feels tight, wear it upside down and backward before assuming you need a larger band. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />

I am supported, lifted, and tethered in this 32H. The gore is still 50% wider than I require. And, the wires look too wide. But, when the cups sit on the bra cradle where my breasts require, the wire is a near perfect fit. When I rotate one gore wire flat onto my chest, the cup fits beautifully. Otherwise, a .25" gore gap is present in each cup. When I began my journey, I would have assumed this cup was too large. It is not. The bra is simply designed for breasts further apart than mine. Again, center-full, close-sets breasts are a definite fit challenge.

I prefer La Femme over Freya Deco for several reasons. If you'd like to read them, click here http://bra.pe/XWGS/

Wacoal is one of my favorite bra manufacturers because of their material selection. This bra creates amazing round orbs under thin t-shirts. Not an ideal fit, but I may be able to alter enough to fit.

Cappuccino colorway

    Wow, I can't believe you found a wired bra that, at least for the moment, feels supportive and comfortable!

    I love it. I also loved your note to self regarding the band! While it made me laugh, I totally get what you are saying.
    Looks great under a top too! :)

    I just got a Wacoal Seduction Spacer and a La Femme on eBay from a great seller. The spacer is amazing. The La Femme is so close to being perfect, but not quite. I agree that Wacoal uses quality materials and for that reason they are my favorites. The La Femme looks wonderful on you. Congratulations!

    I've accumulated 5 La Femmes over the past year and they are consistently the bras I reach for every day. It's not a perfect fit but closer than anything else I have. Also cute and comfortable! My only issue is most of the new colors are not available in my size. It looks great on you.
