Didn't fit

Not quite sure what's going on with the fit of this bra. I'm not going to post a fit check, as this bra is being returned. First off, the band is really, really not true to size. As you can see from my back picture, it both looks and feels like I'm being cut in half. It's supposed to be a 32" band but it only stretches to 30" at most. Size up in the band for this one.

Then there's the cups. It's hard to see from my pictures, but there is empty space in the top half of the cup. It wrinkles a little when I'm standing still and gapes horribly when I put my arm forward. Plus, I feel like I'm sloshing around up there with no support. The wires are the right width for my wide roots, but I'm getting wrinkling in the bottom center of the cup so I can only assume that this bra is too shallow for me. I never thought I'd find a bra that was too shallow for me, but this one seems to be it. The wires want to creep down out of my IMF, and the side profile has me looking very flattened and minimized.

The straps are very wide and thick and feel a bit matronly to me. It doesn't help that the front, non-adjustable part of the strap as well as the band look and feel like cheap polyester material. It's fairly comfortable and not itchy or scratchy, it just looks cheap.

The cups are a double layer of teal see-through mesh that has a vertical seam up the center. The gorgeous embroidery literally sparkles (I can see why this colorway is called Sparkling Ocean) and is only on the outside of the cup. It is not raised much and would probably be invisible under all but the tightest, thinnest shirts. The back, top edge of the cup has a thin plastic strip sewn along it for stabilization (you can see this in the picture of the back of the bra by itself). It has minimal stretch to it. I couldn't feel this part, so it wasn't uncomfortable, but I also didn't fill out the top edge of the cup so YMMV.

I really wanted to like this bra. The embroidery is just beautiful, but the fit is just so poor and unflattering on me that it's going back to the store (I got it from Herroom). I'm not really sure who this bra would fit, since it's pretty shallow at the bottom, with fairly wide underwires, but not terribly open on the top.

  • Not unflattering at all IMO! Great color, lovely design (I'm a fan of the keyhole detail in the gore).

    But hey, if it's not comfy and the fit is off, it's not worth it of course. Such a shame as it looks pretty awesome.

  • You can't see it in the pictures, but the top half of the cups have this wrinkled deflated look to the lace. Believe me, not attractive. Even my husband (unprompted) said it wasn't that flattering. And the gaping when I moved my arm even slightly forward was big enough to carry my wallet in! It was so disappointing, because the embroidery was just stellar and I really liked the color.
