Didn't fit

Very short-waisted, center full, close set, immediately projected, omega shaped, wide-shallow underarm tissue,...

This bra top has 3 of my most favorite bra features: 3/4" straps, front adjust straps, and 4 x 2 fasteners. It is locally made (within 500 miles), pays fair labor wages, uses local materials, supports a female entrepreneur, and is customizable. These are endearing characteristics!

For me, this bra and it's scaling are perfect for my very short-waisted physique. I doubt this style would be grand on those with tall, significant roots, but it works well for shorties. From a projection perspective, it accommodates my immediate and center projection well. If the band were the "30 inch stretched maximum" length I had requested, I'm certain a short list of fit issues would appear. ; -)

There is, however, no lift or support. Like wearing a t-shirt, it is comfortable. But, like many t-shirts, it simply acts like a drape over my breasts. I was hoping for Kindred Bravely Organic Nursing bra-like support with fasteners for easy, painless removal. On a 28" underbust, a 38" stretched band (Taylor) cannot provide the same support as a 30" stretched band (Kindred Bravely X-small Busty). Taylor 's narrow elastic underbust band and the band length (38" stretched) seem the fit culprits. And, both could be remedied by adding a limited stretch, wider band.

The materials are both beautiful and soft. The seamstress selected the coordinating fabrics, and I like her choices https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> The stitching and assembly are excellent. And, her customer service outstanding. For instance, she procured .75" straps, and kept me updated throughout the order fulfillment process. Eagerly, I will order again, but I may send a Kindred Bravely Organic Nursing Bra pattern and request a few design changes. It's in the mail https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> Salem's Scissors will work her magic https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
