Didn't fit
Cheerful, vibrant print - a bit 'loud' and girly perhaps, but I like it.
As my Cleo Maya (sister cut) was kind of small in a 30GG, I decided to try this in 30H (found it for £9 on Ebay).
Quite a couple of issues with this fit though.
Firstly, the straps are WAY too wide set. This is practically always an issue for me, but Nyla is a big offender.
Next, the cups are too closed on top. They cut into my breast tissue, while the depth is fine. So that's a shape mismatch (a bigger size would probably be too deep). Also, there's wrinkling in the bottom of the cups - not sure if this is a projection issue, or connected with the shape mismatch / too closed cups forcing the bra downwards?
The wide set straps and too-closed cups seem worse than in 30GG Maya, which was in fact a better fit.
Because this was cheap and I do love the print, this might end up being an alterations experiment..
In unlined bras it seems harder to lower / open up the cup height, something I've been wanting to try. Some tugging and pulling on Nyla seems to show that attaching the pink part to the straps (while also moving the straps inward) could greatly improve the fit of this bra.
I'll update when I ever have time to try this out 😉This bra is not owned any more
