Didn't fit

I wanted to love this bra, but I would just say it is ok. Based on some reviews I sized up a cup and got a 38HH. I think the cups fit well. No cutting in or wrinkling. But, I think my boobs are a little too soft for this bra. The seams sort of pushed into my tissue, so the shape wasn't a smooth, round line. It was very hard to take a picture of this, so I guess it's not too noticeable.

The underwires definitely cut into my armpit area. It was very pokey and uncomfortable. They were too high, but also aren't cushioned at all. The band also seemed a little scratchy, but that might soften up with time.

The bra's fabric is very smooth and lovely. I would prefer more color or embellishment, but this is a simple, classy bra. I think my soft, heavy boobs need something more substantial though. I need a stiffer fabric that holds me up better. I did get a pretty decent shape in the Lucy, but I would prefer something with a little more lift. The Lucy definitely was a pretty good fit, but it's just not for me.

This bra is not owned any more
