This is a really gorgeous bra, but I am very sad to say that it’s not a good fit for me, and altering it would only fix some of the problems. The gore is too wide, as are the cups, and the cups are too tall and open. The band is fine, I think, and the cup material was nice, as is the colour and embroidery. It’s going back though, along with the Fancies which also does not fit. I almost decided to keep it because it was so cheap but it doesn’t seem to work under my clothes well, and it’s too nice to have under my blah work shirt and sweater. I did rather return them both and try something else.

  I'm sure you can find a better fit. I don't have much upper fullness (and I have short roots), and I have a hard time finding bras that aren't too tall on me. Check out my profile if you need ideas of bras to try. You'll see how they all fit me as I have pictures posted.

  Wilderness1 Thanks. Because I have soft malleable tissue, it can look like I have upper fullness in some styles, but I really don't. I do think that if this bra was less wide and the cups were a smidge shorter, it would fit better. I'm going to see what works for you. Thanks. I'll check out your profile.

• I am in your size range so I couldn't resist reading your review. This bra is SO pretty - it's a shame it's not a great fit. This exact same thing happens to me if cups are even slightly too deep: the cups gape and look like they're not filled at all. Sometimes if I then go down a cup, I "overflow" and get quad boob galore. I wonder if this bra would work if you go down a cup size? I think you could possibly go down a band size as well...the straps are way too far apart for you. My "@Freya Size" is 28DD without fail. It sounds ridiculously small, but Freya seems to have long bands and deep cups. Freya is not the best fit for me, either, but I find it impossible to resist some of their beautiful bras.

• ShaniSunAZ Hi! Thanks for your input. I have considered a band and cups change. I think that I might be able to swing a 28 in this one, but I'm not sure if I can swing a cup size down. Pretty sure I would overflow. Besides, two main issues are the gore being too wide and the cups are just a smidge too tall. And I don't think that the size down would affect the cup width enough, because I'm center full anyway, with soft tissue, and not likely to fill the sides still. But you never know, if if find a super cheap 28E/F, I might try it again. But it's not a priority for me right now.
