Pros: embroidery and color are pretty. The fabric is sturdy, the band is fantastic. It fits more comfortably than my Freya Mishcha 28. I prefer 3 hooks for stability, so I appreciate that about Curvy Kate. I feel very supported in this bra, and would find it more than suitable for everyday wear were it not for the cons about to follow. I think the band would hold up well under wear, as the stretch isn't terribly dramatic.

Cons: the straps are WAY too wide. They come up under my armpits and I'm certain there would be chafing if I wore it for a couple hours. I have quite a bit of projection and despite Curvy Kate being known for their shallowness, my breast tissue seems to fit well inside the cup - it doesn't give me a flattened look at all.

The other major con is that the cups are simply too wide for me. This bra (and CK in general) are made for wide set, wide root, shallow breasts. The underwire wing went far beyond the end of my breast root. The wideness didn't seem to make a big difference under clothing, but I couldn't wear this due to discomfort, regardless.

I also don't care for the shape this bra gave my breasts. It sort of drags them downwards - I have very soft breasts, so I need I rely heavily on my bra to shape me.

This bra is not owned any more
