I went to look at L'Agent by Agent Provocateur bras at Nordstrom. I love trying on L'Agent by Agent Provocateur bras and the more upscale Agent Provocateur bras because they have very low coverage cups, a rarity for someone who wears UK 30F. Low coverage cups make me feel sexy and normal in Braland.

The Mint color for the Idalia bra, an unlined. underwired bra, is a beautiful icy mint green. This brand's bras' colors sometimes look much worse in person than online.

This brand starts at a 32 band. However, their bands often run small. Unfortunately for me, their cups often run small, too. Most days I wear Ewa Michalak 65F 3D bras. Sometimes I wear Panache UK 30F bras that have super low gores. I am sometimes sized out of L'Agent by Agent Provocateur bras, even if they technically make a bra available in my sister sizes of 32E and 34DD.

I tried the 34DD Mint color Idalia bra. I got that flattened in front look, as if I were pressing my torso up against a window. I tried on a 36DD. The cup volume was correct. The straps were far too wide set and the cups much higher coverage than L'Agent is designed for, but the cups clearly fit much better than the 34DD Idalia. The seams were less visible under a white technical T-shirt in 36DD. This is remarkable because not only is this bra not lined, it has two front sections that overlap diagonally. There's a pretty good photo you can zoom in on on the Nordstrom site here: http://shop.nordstrom.com/o/lagent-by-agent-provocateur-bra-thong/4053031?origin=category&BaseUrl=Bras%2c+Panties+%26+Lingerie

There is a 34E in one of the San Francisco Nordstroms, according to their computers. I'm going to the Oscar de la Renta exhibit in SF this weekend. I may be able to try Idalia on in 34E soon. If I do, I'll try to take picture and/or measurements. There wasn't time to capture either during today's visit.
