I have short roots and normally wear 28DD. The 28E Satine is too big on me, and the 28DD is too small. It cuts in on top and feels too shallow on bottom. This bra has good apex projection but does not allow a lot of fullness anywhere.

The bra is closed on top and shallow on the bottom, but the cup depth is closer to 28E than 28DD. It should fit someone with at least average root height but lacks top fullness. I normally wear 28DD and have short roots. The 28E Satine is too tall and have too much top volume for me.

I specifically made a stop into Bravissimo while in the UK to buy some of these! I wanted black and tan and also got a wonderful dark floral print! They are much more rigid than my old, worn Satine and they feel like better quality too!

My best fitting bra. It is so great, that I deconstructed one and made it into a pattern and have made 3 bras so far from it. The band runs a little large, normally I would be a 32, but had to get a 30 in this style. The cups are foam, 3 seam constructed. The inside feels like cotton lining and the outside is satin. The satin is nice since it allows my tops to slide over them and not get caught up and wrinkled like outer cotton fabric cups. The gore is nice and low and is great for my close set breasts. I also love how simple the style is. I love me a basic.
The measurements are for the beige color. I currently own 3 beige ones, and they all are very similar in construction. They are very well made and haven't had one break or become misshaped by any means.

This is probably my best fitting bra to date. I'm really impressed with how much support it gives given how comfortable it is. It looks really great and the material is really comfortable.

I love the Satine bra. It's sturdy and has a good uplift and hold. The inner cotton(ish) fabric is very comfortable and the outer sateen fabric makes the clothes sit nice over the bra. The wires aren't too wide and the gore tacks. It brings the breast up front, not east/west. The band is to the large side. I don't think the cups stretches over time, I think it keeps the shape and fit very nicely.

This bra falls into the "probably the correct size, but not a good fit" category. The deep plunge is perfect, the wire width is good, the top of the cup sits evenly across... BUT, the cup has hardly any depth close to the wire (which I need) and so slides down a bit, and too much depth at the apex of the cup- while not exactly visible- I can feel it. This bra currently sits in my (large) bag of unfitting bras.
