Side support slings are a tad TOO supportive. They sort of push my boobs out of the cup in the center. Otherwise a very good lift and fit.

This bra seems to run large for a 30E. The straps are fully adjustable. Cute bra, doesn't fit me quite right. Might be good for full on top, not sure. The straps sit too far apart for me.

I really wanted to love this bra. The design is beautiful and I don't doubt it would look great on if it fitted. The problem however is that the straps are not fully adjustable and clearly too long on me. As I am usually a 28 band, the 30 band was definitely too big. It was on the tightest hook straight away. I do not think that this style runs small in the band as I was told. The cups were a beautiful shape and make, would have been perfect if the band and straps were smaller. I would recommend this for 32+ women. I very much hope that Parfait will bring out fully adjustable straps in a 28 band one day as the Alexis, like all of their styles, is stunning.

I ordered this along with a 30DD because the website said it was running small by one cup size. This was a better fit in the cups but the straps were now uncomfortable, too close to my underarms. I also found the padding to be thicker than I care for and the seams were noticeable under clothing.

Band and size feels really good but sadly too deep for my shallow shape

I bought the pink 30E Parfait by Affinitas Anna Wire Bra in September 2012, but I haven't worn it much. In October 2012, I bought the same bra in 30F, which fit much better. The wires were wider, and the side view was more rounded.

I haven't worn either bra much since then because while I don't mind my bras showing through my tops, there are limits. The pretty appliques are startlingly bulky under shirts. The straps dig in a bit in the front, though that's only in comparison to my very comfortable Fantasie and Fauve bras, which I now prefer.

BOUGHT THIS TWICE. FOR NO REASON. Seriously. And it just fit me...wrong. Cut into my boobs, and was awkward. Think I'm just the wrong shape for it.

I migrated, this is too small. Runs small in the band, will work for 28 bands, too. The cups are just too small for me, really.

Beautiful bra, but I decided to go 1 and half cups up from my "normal" size (28DD/E) and it ended up being too big https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

I don't feel like the band is actually like a 28.. It stretches to 31 inches, and that's about the size of a 30. Perhaps they updated it be more accurately sized?

I will be exchanging this for a 30DD and be reviewing that one more in depth!

Cute bra! Everything is pretty comfortable. The top line of the bra seems a little strange, and wants to warp a little bit. Seams show through light to medium clothing. Comfy, I'm more of a 28 band, but this band runs snug.

This is a beautiful bra with a few imperfections, but a lot that's good about it. First of all, the bra is constructed with lightly lined smooth, soft fabric as the bottom of the cup, and a layer of intricate lace over a layer of tiny mesh cuts from the bottom of the strap to the gore. There are two large seams, one horizonal-ish running along the bottom of the lace, and one vertical in the middle of the cup. As far as I know, seams are where the nipples are supposed to fall on unlined bras, but not for me, not on this one - my nipples on both breasts fall under the lace and mesh. I am capable of pulling the cup or pushing my breasts around so that my nipples fall on the horizontal seam, but it doesn't stick and makes the cup wrinkle. So that's my biggest issue.

Other than that, though, the bra is very pretty, fits well, and feels tight and supportive.

An absolutely gorgeous bra, but didn't fit me in this size. Cups do run small.

After recent weight loss, I desperately needed a new bra. I'm so glad I went to a shop instead of just ordering [one of those other molded plunge bras] online! Not only is this one significantly less expensive, but it also fits me better. I did have to knock points off for quality and comfort because one corner of the bra was poking me, but I filed it down a little with a nail file, and it's no longer an issue. As others have noted, the bands on Parfait bras do seem to run a little tighter than other brands, which is a good thing in my opinion!

Completely sheer, unlined bra with 3 part cups.

I heard this brand runs small in the cups, but that is not true of this model.

I ordered a size up from my normal size & it's a bit too big (wrinkles on top). The wires seem okay though. However, in another bra by this brand, a molded style, the cups fit well in the 30E (I'd normally wear a 30DD). I think that sheer, soft cup, 3 part bras are simply made for breasts which are very round/full up top, and so they don't seem to fit me correctly (full on bottom), no matter the size.

The band does run small, which is great if you need a 28 (the 30 fits like a 28, IMO).

The band & straps are a bit thick. It's starting to look a little granny because of it. I can't return it, but I would if I could.

However, it IS a nice quality bra.

This bra is going back. Although it fit for the most part, the underwire is a bit wide on me. I do fill out the cups, but there is no support so the girls look a little less perky than I would prefer. It may be because there is no lining?
