The gore pokes in, but I just bent the wires out and now have no problems with this bra.

This is probably one of my favourite bras. It was super cheap, it's very cute, and at the moment it's the best fitting bra I own. My only issues with it are some wrinkling at the bottom and a tiny bit of top spillage. Interestingly enough, I ordered it in baby pink at the same time, and that bra was a total disaster. The gore didn't sit anywhere near flat, and the fit was just all wrong. It's wonderfully comfortable, and I have no poking issues. Since the bottom is so much thicker than the top, there's a very clearly visible seam which you can see through many tops, but this is a very common problem, so I'm not too worried about it.

Got this as a freebie from alisa today. Thanks! The top of the cup was hilariously huge (I'm definitely an H, not an HH) but I employed my "expert" sewing skills and got on the machine and basically took the cups in half an inch along the seam where the lace attaches to the bottom half of the cup. So now it has a lumpy seam but will work great under dresses. Thanks, alisa. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Pretty good for a free bra.

It's a comfortable bra and give pretty good support. The shape under clothing is kind of weird for me though. Since it works so well with projection, my breasts kinda look long and thin in shirts. It's very stretchy too. Overall I like it, but the 32F is a bit small for me. I quadboob along the seam, but the lace does a good job of disguising it.

Now I have it in a smaller size (32H). It gives my somewhat pendulous breasts a great shape and is now my favorite everyday bra.

Lovely satin-like material and it has a great shape on its own. The cups were too big. I'm actually a 32H, but they are larger at the top than most bras. Seem good for someone with fuller breasts.

I love this bra! I don't quite fill the top of the cups because of my full on bottom shape, but otherwise it fits great! The band is snug on my 29" ribcage but not too tight. The gore does dig a tiny bit into my sternum but only after wearing for a very long time and because I have a very bony sternum. It's one of the most comfy bras I own.

This bra gives me great shape and is really comfortable. Its not too feminine but still pretty. Gives excellent support and there is no gapping.

It fits fine, but I don't like the somewhat pointy shape it gives me

I am very happy with this bra. Gives a good shape, although can't be worn under some thinner tops. Exceedingly comfortable, not too snug nor too loose with no poking or digging into my ribs.

Really nice 3 part non padded bra. Gives me a little pointiness, and cannot be worn under lightweight tops. Also, for some reason the straps on this bra squeak every time I move, sometimes when I take a deep breath even. Not a big deal at home, but makes me very self conscious when I'm in public. The band is very snug and I don't have any concerns that it is stretching out. I will continue to wear this, but it may be relegated to the stack of cleaning day bras.

I want to love this bra, I just can't get the gore to be comfortable. The wires must just hit me wrong--I have bras with wider and/or higher gores that fit comfortably. I don't have a lot of padding on my ribs, and this just stabs me and leaves welts after a few hours.

My boobs are close in the center, wide and shallow at the root, full on bottom.

Some 34Es fit me, but Flirtelle and Curvy Kate are far too large. I won't be posting pics of this one because the cups are simply way too big.

I do like: the wide underwires
I don't like: the high center gore which cuts into my close breasts

What really reeled me in to order this bra was the lovely combination of navy and hot pink! Navy is a color that really suits my pale skin tone and I've always been a big fan of hot pink (hot pink suits me MUCH better than light pink, I just look like a ghost in light pink clothes). What I did not like though, esthetically, was the oversized bows and the imo old lady-like roses. I have ripped them off with my seam-ripper https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

The cut of this bra would suit me well if the overall cup design wasn't so wide. I don't ... know if this bra would qualify as wide-wired in general, but the wires are definitely wide on my body. They extend way further than my boob crease and it hurts. The band is nice and snug and it is definitely tight enough for me hooked on the loosest hook. This band is angled up just like BIHAL described in one of her posts and like the newbie I was, I didn't realize this was the case with this bra, because of that, I thought that the band was too big since it "rode up". The straps are set too wide, so wide that it's butchering my armpits. I have red marks in my armpits after just wearing it for like 5 minutes. The straps restrict my arm movement, the slight movement it is to reach for my cereals in the morning shifts the whole fit of the cups and the MBT I have near my armpits slip out, and oh, that's not because of too loose straps. Bottom-line is, this bra hurts me https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I also really dislike the structure of the band too. Yes, it's tight enough. No, it's not too tight. Yet I get these really unsightly bulges INSIDE the band! The strips of elastic are so tight compared to the middle section of the band that my soft skin (not particularly squishy though) gets caught between the two strips of stranglers. I really dislike that the wings are so low too, I find the greatest comfort in bras that have high wings and 3 sets of hooks and eyes. Unfortunately, this bra only has two hooks from 28F and below. I've had this bra in 28FF too and that's where the 3-hook closure starts. Besides the poor (imo) construction, I also find the bra to be rather scratchy (mind you, I've washed it several times so it's not because of starch either).

I won't be buying any more Flirtelle bras, that's for sure.

The fabric is pretty, a little shiny and glossy. The laces on top of the cups aren't thick so the bra is discrete under clothes.
I fill the cups pretty well, maybe on the verge of being too much. The breasts are well supported, they are enclosed inside the cups but there is still nice cleavage and it doesn't show under round necks or V-necks.
My only problem with it is that the band is too large for me : I'm using the third hook and it could be a bit smaller for better support.
I've been wearing it almost everyday for the past two month (only proper bra I have...) and it's still in good shape.

This bra is really pretty and comfortable. It's a little too small, but I'm still able to wear it. It is quite forgiving. I've had it for a few months and am still on the loosest hook, so little stretching.

I'm still working on finding the perfect fit in a bra, but this one seems true to size in the band and cup. The lace details do not show up through shirts, which is awesome.

If this bra fit me properly without quadboob, it would be a great t-shirt bra.

The cup is a size too small for me, the band is too big and rides up even on the tightest hooks (I am more a size 26).
The mesh and the details aren't very high quality, but the bra is worth it's price.

This is the only bra I own that fits me perfectly. It's light, pretty, and supportive! I wish the center gore was a little bit taller below the underwires, but even that isn't really a complaint, this bra fits me like it was custom made!

A good looking bra, but unfortunately too big both in cups and in band.
