I wanted to reserve the rest of my reviews for my blog (after, if and when I get my things unpacked at new place https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":p" />), but I don't...know.lol
I don't like this enough to spend over an hour reviewing/photographing/measuring every inch of it, etc.(I will add the measurements on here, but was trying to do a little more with the bras on my blog).
If anyone wants more info on it, I will give a crazy in depth review, upon request.

This is lavender, which is one of my favorite colors, so love that. The material of the cups is very soft and plushy, and I really like that also. If this bra was made with narrower wires and slightly more projected cups, I'd probably be fine with it. Or at least not hating it so much.
I am actually thinking the band may be the issue, as the cup depth and width looks fine on me without the band stretched. The wires bend very easily with just a little stretch, and the band is very stretchy.
I'd assume it'd stretch to 29" at least, maybe 30/31" tops.
I suspect that just has to do with this seeming to be a pretty broken in bra. I had expected that, and don't mind it. I just hadn't anticipated the stretchy wires.

The gore distance is close enough for me, straps are long enough, gore tacks. The cup shape is one that typically doesn't work for me. It's a bit of a demi I guess. Demis aren't very compatible with my shape, I'm not sure why. I've noticed this in all my demi bras; they tend to cut in at the top, be too wide, and too shallow. Interestingly I don't have the same issue with (true) half cups.
I do believe this is made worse by the stretchiness of the wire, which causes me to spill in the cups.

So..yep. I'm not sure what else to add.
I think this would work well for someone with a 27-28" ribcage who doesn't mind a stretchy band. Also someone who just needs semi wide cups- as I said, without the band sttetching the wires, they don't actually appear to be that wide.
And I'd guess someone who is between shallow and average projection.
Or, a 29-31" ribcage who wouldn't mind the cups stretching, wide wires, and shallower cups.

I'm actually a little sad this didn't work for me. I'm trying to add more practical, simple bras to my collection.
I do love the color and I like the soft, pillowy feel of the cups-they aren't that material like VS Body bras that are super soft but make you sweat. I have a feeling this would be a decent summer bra. Plushy but breathable.
I'd be interested to see if a 32D would be any different, considering I have a feeling any stretch would widen the cups too much in this model..though I honestly wouldn't be too interested in spending any more money on trying models that aren't Polish after this one. Lol
That's enough of that, Alicia, get your act together. Only Polish. And maybe a little Freya and Masquerade and Cleo and some other things. But mostly only Polish.

Edit:
Measured. The band stretches to 28.5 without distorting the wires, and 29.5 completely, with the wires very distorted. So the band is very stretchy, but not without altering the wires.
That'd probably explain the horrible fit on me.
My ribcage measurement has gone down some, but I believe I'm messuring 27.5 tight, 28.5 snug. The band is 28.5, but I either need a 28.5" band with very sturdy wires, or a 29-30" band. So that solves that https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":p" />

This bra is not owned any more
