This bra fails on several levels for me. First, the wires are super flexible and distort easily. The gore is nicely narrow, which is good for my close-set breasts. But somehow, even though the gore isn't really that tall, it twists so one side lays flat and the other is floating.
However, the bottom of the cup fits very well and gives a decent rounded shape. And at the same time the top of the cup both gaps and quads on me! Very strange! It seems to have too much height in the lace and the narrow elastic along the edge is too strong relative to the stretch of the lace.
The band is also tight on me and the strong, 3/4" wide elastic on the bottom edge causes quite a bit of back and underarm bulge. After wearing for a couple of hours it became painfully obvious the bottom band was also curling inwards below my IMF. With my short torso, that was very painful! So I handstitched the band under, along the front edge only, changing it from a full band to a partial band. That helped comfort wise. But with the issue of the lace top, quite honestly, I'm not motivated to spend more time on any more modifications.
Sorry Curvy Kate Ellace...You're not for me!
