Didn't fit

I'll write a more thorough review after I've worn it and washed it, but here are my initial feelings about the 28FF - Tutti Rouge » Mae Bra. First of all, it is gorgeous! It's a deep red, kind of wine colour with a black velvet rose at the gore and two little black bows at the straps which are overlayed with a black kind of lace chain pattern. It also has black lace attached to the band at the front of the bra, but not the back. It has one vertical seam, and is padded except for the mesh upper section, also separated by lace. I got the matching thong, which is the same colour scheme, also with a velvet rose attached to the centre of the waistband.

Fit: The band is stretchy on this one, but still firm. It's very comfortable. Two hooks and eyes. As for the underwires, they're a little bit wide on me, but I have narrow roots. They're still comfortable though, and comparable to my 28G Cleo Lucy's wires. However, the gore doesn't tack completely. The cups are filled well, and they run slightly large, as I'm hovering between a 28FF and G. It's a slightly shallow construction, but nothing to gripe about.. yet... Also, the cups are rubbing against my armpit (or tail of spence) a little, which could become irritating.
The straps are a little wide-set for my liking, but I always have that problem. However, the real problem lies in the half-adjustable design. I'm short, and I'm already wearing it on the tightest strap setting possible. Also, the straps are very thin, and feel like they could become slightly itchy or irritating after extended wear.

I'm gonna talk about the thong now, because it's a little bit of an issue. I asked for the thong in a small size, and it fits more like a Freya Medium. It runs very large, and I'll probably look into getting it tailored (strange, I know) just to put some darts in it to take in the sides and the length of the gusset. Here are some basic measurements... waistband laying flat: 15.5", waistband stretched: 19.25", waistband to bottom of gusset, laying flat (top to bottom): 8.5"(ish), widest part of gusset: 2.5", narrowest part of gusset: 1.25", gusset length: 5.25", total length (from front waistband through gusset to back waistband): 16.5".

Alright, do with this information what you will. I just thought I'd do my part, since there are barely any reviews or measurements of Tutti Rouge's stuff yet.
