    85F

    Didn't fit

    The bra consists of green lace which is sewn over a thin black lining. The straps are wider over the shoulders and are half adjustable to the point where the lace starts. The gore section has an interesting design with the black being carried over to give the apperance of a different shape, and the bow being located lower rather than at the top of the gore. Although the look is different, it still functions like a normal gore. The tops of the cups are edged with elastic.

    I ordered the 85F because the 80J I tried before was much too large for me in ... the cup and far too tight in the band. I am now of the opinion that perhaps the band was mislabeled. Not only have I found other Melissa models consistently comfortable in 80, but I find this bra far too loose in 85 and I had to try it on the tightest hook. Based on my experiences, I would say that Melissa bands run true-to-size.

    The cup sizing is quite different from normal EU to UK conversion. I tend to fit a 34H/34GG/36G/36GG and I would say that this 85F fits like a UK 38FF/38F. It's hard for me to say if the armpit spill I'm seeing is because it is closer to a 38F or if it is just a shape mismatch. Based on other Melissa bras, my correct size in Melissa is an 80G, and this is a sister size. So if I were to guess I'd say it fits like a UK 38FF.

    Something about this bra just doesn't flatter my shape and I cannot put my finger on it. Of course the band is too large, I've got armpit spill, and maybe the wires are a little bit narrow, and I have a bit of wrinkling at the bottom of the cup (consistent with not enough projection at the bottom), but it is something else. It just isn't giving me the lift I want, even if the shape can't really be called blue, and I feel slightly east-west in it. I was also expecting something a little more delicate and less full-coverage based on the picture on the website. As much as I want a green bra, something about the visual appearance of this bra just doesn't thrill me.

    80J

    Didn't fit

    I ordered one band size up from my usual band of 34/75. I should have gone two sizes up, as I needed the full length of my extender to try it. The cups were also far too large for me. I would say it runs larger than any of the other Melissa models I have tried thus far. Because the cups were two or three sizes too big for me, it poked me in the armpits and I was unable to check anything else about the fit because I just wanted to remove it.

    It is a pretty color but more of a full-coverage bra ... than I realized...or maybe it just seems that way because it is so big on me. The green is very bright and refreshing. The straps are only partially adjustable. The straps get wider and are lace-trimmed in the non-adjustable part.

    The website offers an English translation but I arranged my order via email without difficulty. I placed the order on 22 February and paid by bank transfer. The package was delivered on 13 March (within Europe). The time includes the time for the payment to be received, so it was quite reasonable.
