Didn't fit

(Review for the yellow colorway)

Pros: I received this bra from a fellow Bratabase user. I love the sunshine-yellow color. I thought it would look gross on me, but once I put it on, I felt a little energized and quite cheery! There's even a cute pink bow at the center gore. Lucy hides nicely under clothing and gives a very natural, flattering shape and is good for "bottom-heavy" and "evenly-full" breasts. I could see this bra being heaven in the summer given the mesh fabric's breathable quality.

Nitty gritty: straps are fully adjustable, band runs true to size. There is microfiber on the underwires (on the portion facing your body, of course!) and the straps--quite a nice comfort detail if you ask me!

Cons: Unfortunately for me, Lucy was too small in the cup. To give enough slack on the straps to accommodate my larger breast caused my breasts to look ridiculously lop-sided. The lace on Lucy cut in on top on my larger breast and couldn't contain the tissue should I wiggle about or bend over. My breasts began to pull the gore apart, too, which was weird (not as in shred/wreck it, more like put strain on the poor thing). I'm sizing up a cup to see if this is worth saving/compatible for me.

This bra is not owned any more
