First, I should note that I ordered this bra one cup size smaller than I am currently measuring because HH is the largest cup offered in this style. So I do struggle with some quad-boobing, probably due to a combination of the plunge style and the cup size being a bit too small. The band is also quite stretchy, and I found it riding up frequently throughout the day. Unfortunately, since I'm already at the maximum cup size offered, going down a band size would make the cup fit even worse. The straps are also set wider apart than most Elomi bras (probably because it is a plunge style), so I struggled with the straps moving throughout the day as well.

It's a gorgeous bra though, and seems similar in construction to the Elomi Valentina. The cups are sturdy and supportive, and the lace along the top of the cups is stretchy and flexes to accommodate the breast tissue. I'm keeping this bra because it is nice to have a plunge style to wear when I need to, and because the quad-boobing is not as pronounced as it is on other bras. I think if I can find a way to hold the straps in position (perhaps with a clip to hold the straps together in the back) and maybe tighten the band a bit (waiting for the Rixie clip to come out in three hooks!), this could actually be a great bra.

I would recommend ordering one band size down in this bra.
