Disclaimer: This bra is the wrong size for me. I knew that when purchasing it, BUT I was curious as to what it would look like to have a bra with a depth closer to my breast perimeter (this one is about 12.6 inches). However, it fits pretty well when I put in a second set of pad (that's how the pictures were taken) so I'm actually debating keeping it. It also makes me wonder if I would do better in a 70JJ than a 70J.

This bra is so much prettier than it is in the pictures. It is black with a black floral lace overlay, which has some gold embroidery. The lace is not wrap around, and stops about an inch after the edge of the cup (just eyeballing that measurement). The gore has a black bow with with a little pendant on it.

I'm not really sure how much validity any of my fit comments will be, because it is not quite the right size. I'll still give my thoughts though. Firstly, this bra is super comfortable. The fabric is probably the softest out of all of my bras. The straps also don't seem to be nearly as much of a problem as they are in my S Granatowa Pantera.

The PL cut definitely gives a much more rounded shape overall than the S cut. While the S cut kind has a lot of vertical roundness (you look round top to bottom), the PL cut also has horizontal roundness (you look rounded from side to side as well). There is definitely noticeably less lift in the PL cut than the S cut. I think that the PL cut would probably work better on people who have more upper fullness than I do. That being said, this bra is so much more comfortable than any of the S cut bras I've tried. So while I don't like the shape quite as much, the comfort level is awesome. I do wish the cups were a teeny bit shorter on the outside, though. My roots are a little short.

Another thing that I'll note is the 4 part construction of the cup, which is different than the 3 part construction of all of my other EM cups. I was expecting this, as they change to a 4 part cup either at a JJ cup or sister sizes of a 70JJ (I forget which it was). Since the bras I have in 3 part cups are all a different cut than this bra (as well as different sizes) I can't really draw too many comparisons between the two.

I do think that I prefer the S cut as of right now, but I would be curious to try a PL cut in a 70JJ before writing it off completely. It also works great as a comfort bra, so I may have to add a few to my collection for that purpose

This bra is not owned any more

• Yeah, 4-part cups give a much more rounded shape. The S bra has 4-part cups at this size as well, so you can't really compare the shape of a 3-part 70J S bra with a 4-part 70K PL. PLs are also made of 3-parts at 70J and have a completely different shape than your 70K. It's like they're all completely different bras! It's kind of nice for those of us right on the spot where it changes (70J-70JJ) because we can *almost* wear all of them, so it gives more variety. :)

• I love this bra. The 70GG (my usual UK cup size) was too small, but the 70H fits like a wonderful boob glove. :)

• Interesting. I dont suppose you are close enough to Richmond, VA for me to stop over and try it on lol

• Sure and I will make the trip from Oregon :) this was the size I was looking at but I do like uplift as my breast start just above my lower ribs nice to bring them above the elbows . I like the idea of more roundness I need to look at the seeming in your pictures more closely . I too lack upper fullness unless enough compression than hello where did you come from very fluid breast . Thanks for the very detailed review . Someone should have a bra Tryon rental company like the special occasion dress rent the red carpet or whatever it's called . I would so rent a bra to try on wouldn't you?

  My "boob sister" and I are sending bra packages to one another. And, my local "boob 1st cousin" and I are meeting this weekend to swap. :-) :-) I'm thrilled others are willing to share. And, we add more data to Bratabase :-)
