This would probably be one of the best bras ever, if it fitted me well. That's why I've been wearing it lot even though I really shouldn't wear it at all.

The great thing is that this is a supportive plunge t-shirt bra that gives cleavage. Yes, all of this in one bra. And, made for larger cup sizes. I haven't found a single person that doesn't love this bra.

But, the issue is that it isn't made in larger cup sizes than a GG, and in the 28-band, only up to a G. Even though the cup sizes are large, the band is quite big too, which adds ... to the problem. Most people need to go down a bandsize in this bra, but when you're a 28-band, that is unfortunatly not possible. I would say that a 28G is closer to a 30G sizewise.

For me this is just not good. I get back pains when I where it, even with the closest set of hooks and eyes. After a long day I even get really bad painful red marks, but because of the greatness of this bra I keep wearing it anyway.

After a year of heavy wearing the fabric and the padding is tearing apart in the place where the cups meet the wires up front, but then I've been wearing it a lot.

If you manage to find this bra in a size that fits you (size down a bandsize and keep you cup size) this is something you have to have in your wardrobe.

----------------------------------------------------
Pros:
+ T-shirt bra
+ Plunge
+ Cleavage
+ Support

Cons:
- Large band results in issues if not the correct size
- Large cup also means hard to find the correct size
- May gape on the top for empty-on-top breast
- Plunge model means running in stairs still should be avoided.
- Doesn't go higher than GG in most bands and a G in 28-bands.

This was one of my first ever Flirtelle bras, I ordered both this one (black/pink) and another Flirtelle divine in Strawberry/Cream (http://www.bratabase.com/chest/dhjta/). The only difference between them is the colour.

The fit is perfect on me and it's really comfortable. My nipples is for once positioned perfectly, even though that means some of it may show through the upper panel as it's really sheer. Usually they tend to be situated to much to the middle and too low, but this one was right on spot. The shape is much more forward focused than most other brands, which probably is what I need. The broidery is pretty and ... flat and with the thin mesh fabric the seams are actually flat enough to not show through most tight fitting tops.

First I thought it wouldn't be supportive enough, but it actually is. There is no stretch in the mesh in the cups, and the double layers in the buttom of the cups really adds to the support. The shape is really nice an round, and still with some lifting. The forwardness actually gives me an hint of cleavage and even though it covers a lot, the slightly lower center makes me able to wear even not so high cut t-shirts, something I've never been able to do with Freya...

The band is tight compared to most other brands, as Freya or Panache, but for me that's just really good since I'm quite small. If you're like me a small 28, maybe even a 26 this is great, but otherwise you might want to size up in the band. Even though this isn't a Curvy Kate bra, the fit is almost exactly the same as most Curvy Kate non-padded bras, so if those suit you, this one is great. However, compared to the Curvy showgirl collection this one is at least a band size smaller.

For me this brings me back to when I was small enough to be able to wear the sheer Freya Eleanors, but this one gives you better shape and support, but is just as delicate looking. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

------------------------------
Pros:
+ Sheer/sexy
+ Supportive
+ Tight band
+ A hint of cleavage
+ Forwardness
+ Comfort

Cons:
- The support might not be enough for JJ/K-cups
- Not for rocket boobs or too wide set
- The band size might be too tight

For me this bra, and well, almost all Curvy Kate Showgirl bras, is too large in the band. Everyone I've heard needs to size down a bandsize (and up at least a cup) in the Thrill me, but since there are no 26HH I'll have to do with this.

However, it does fit proberly on the tightest hooks when it's new and I will alter it as soon as possible. I still find it good enough to be worth the money as I bought it on sale. All my comments will be based on the fit new with hooks on the closest set of eyes. I will update this ... after the alterations.

------------------------------------------

When it comes to the Thrill Mehttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_confused.gif" alt=":s" /> you really have to be careful. There are bras out from several seasons and the fit differs a lot. This one (wine/navy) fitted me perfectly in the cups, but the ivory/black one is a cup size larger, even though it looks the same otherwise.

In this one the support is great. Of course, with a half cup bra you can't expect the same support as with a full cup one but still it's great. The cup isn't moulded but padded and keeps it's shape even off. The satin cups look faboulous and the colour might be more red than I thought but I still love it.

The wires go quite high in the front, which may be an issue for some. For me it usually stops hurting after some wearing. The straps sits quite far apart in the front, almost too far apart for me. This does however help with the shape and could also be a bit less wide if wearing the correct size.

It gives cleavage. The amount is probably determined by the boob shape and the size, but for me, who usually don't get huge amount of cleavage I think it's just right. Since it's so low cut you can usually choose size based on how much oumph you want, but I suggest go with a cup size larger and a band size smaller than your usual Curvy Kate unpadded-bra size, if it is the wine/navy one you're looking for.

-------------------------------------

Pros:
+Comfort
+Cleavage
+Looks
+Support

Cons:
-Band size one size larger than usual
-Unconsistent cup sizing between different colours
-Many changes in the model
-Straps positions a bit too far out on the shoulders.

This is a about the Ivory/Black Thrill me, for other colours, check those reviews.
---------------------------------

This is my third Thrill Me, and yes, it's different too. Curvy Kate is in general quite consistent, but that doesn't apply to the Thrill Me in the Showgirl Collection unfortunatly.

This one is absolutly lovely. The feel of it is great, it's much more supportive than I've ever expected and gives a really nice uplifted cleavage.

However, that doesn't help when it just doesn't fit. It is known that the Showgirl range tends to be a lot larger in the band, but that this one is a lot larger in the cups than the wine/navy ... even though they look identical, that was unexpected. After comparing the wires (there will be a picture up soon) I've realised that this 28H actually has the wires of a Curvy Kate 28HH, and strangely enough I'm not the only one that have encountered this problem, this model is actually a cup size larger than the wine/navy one.

The straps is a bit wide on me on this one too, which probably is due to the too large band size. I still wear this. With some extra padding the cups are fine, and well, when the tightest hooks don't make it I'll alter it instead. This is how good this bra is.

I can certainly recommend this, but, if your interested do take the time to choose size wisely. One band size down and in most cases, keep your ordinary cup size. This one runs big compared to other Thrill Mehttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_confused.gif" alt=":s" /> so be careful.

For me, this bra fits well, gives a great round profile and supports well. However, the material is quite boring, but at the same time visibile through tight-fitting tops, which means that it's neither good-looking nor practical. The material is in two layers, probably fused together, however, the upper one has started to "move" and wrincle just a bit.

It as a sligtly lower center and is the closest to the Freya Polyanna I've found in 28GG.

This one is just as the nude version in the same size that I've already reviewed, so for the full story, read that one. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I got this one in black at the same time as the nude one, know a year ago. Now I've worn both a lot, even though they really don't fit just because of how fabulous they are. However, it didn't take more than a month before the wire in this one poked out. I never made any complaints about it, since sending it back would mean a whole lot of work, more than it was worth.

However you ... find your size in this one I really recommend it. Better t-shirt/plunge/cleavage bra all at once probably doesn't exist. Go down a bandsize and keep your usual cup size and then you'll get at least a good guess on the size you should be wearing.

----------------------------------------------------
Pros:
+ T-shirt bra
+ Plunge
+ Cleavage
+ Support

Cons:
- Large band results in issues if not the correct size
- Large cup also means hard to find the correct size
- May gape on the top for empty-on-top breast
- Plunge model means running in stairs still should be avoided.
- Doesn't go higher than GG in most bands and a G in 28-bands.

This is the worst bra I've ever tried! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Literally. And I cannot even blame it on the wrong size. I so thought I'd finally found the bra to make my lingerie wardrobe complete but it was really just a waste of money ordering it.

The band is nice and snug, some of the better in my size for me, and I'm usually between a 26 and a 28-band. There is "just" three settings in the back but they are about twice the distance apart to usual which will make it more adjustable than most bras. The elastic is wide and the ... band is very comfortable.

The cups however... I've uploaded pictures to show how triangular it is. Now, I do need the wires to go to the middle of my sides approximately, so this triangular thing isn't really something I worry about, but in this case... The back doesn't have much stretch so it is close to this triangular when wearing it as well.

The cups are so wide that they reach to the edge of my back almost. They are also so shallow that there is no room at all at the bottom of the cups when they need to reach around me and bend with my ribcage. No room at all. The armhole are cut so straight and are so high that my arms are pushing the bra down creating even more wrinkles, apart from it trying to cut of my arm. Not rub a bit or be in the way when I reach forward. Cutting off.

At the same time the cups are too small in the front. It is cutting painfully into my boobs at the cleavage because my breast tissue just doesn't fit into the cups. I'm quite shallow and wide, but this bra is waaaay too shallow and wide even for me. The siluette is really east/west and, the most minimizing/flattening I've had in a very long time. With a top on it looks like I'm in my Shock-Absorber... https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_confused.gif" alt=":S" />

It is definitely going back. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone close to my size. Might be better in other sizes but in a 28J there is just something serious wrong with it.
