Didn't fit

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.
