Really was not excited for this one, but it was on sale in my size, so I thought I'd try it out. I was surprised that I actually really liked the style and color (I got the 'scarlet') on me.

And it was so close to fitting me: the band was great, the wire seemed to be comfortably enclosing my breast tissue, on first putting it on it felt really comfortable and supportive, but the shape seemed slightly wrong. Like it was a bit too deep or not rounded enough on top or something. After wearing it for a bit I also noticed it was really itchy, so that wasn't so awesome either.

Might have kept it anyway since the wrinkling wasn't very noticeable, except trying a shirt on over it I found the shape it gave me (partly due to the extra fabric, I'm sure) to be ridiculously pointy. It looked pretty silly on me. So back it goes.

Edit: So actually I did end up keeping this because I needed a bra with a different cut that didn't poke out of a dress I was wearing to an event, and this was the best one I had on hand that was reasonably comfortable and fit okay. After wearing it all night, it was a bit itchy but otherwise still comfortable so it'll be good to at least have for certain occasions.

This bra is not owned any more

• Trying bras on under a shirt is my new "hot tip" for diagnosing bad shapes.

  It's really easy to be like "but it's only a LITTLE quad-boob", when you're just looking at the bra. But under a close fitting top, the weird shape jumps out!
