My shape: slightly shallow teardrop/FOB with super wide/tall roots and very close-set tissue in the middle.

This review is for the Morello colorway.


I bought this bra along with a few others in about april 2013 under the assumption that my boobs were the same as they had been for the previous 3 years (my usual 32C/30D size was sold out so I got this 32D), but I had just been prescribed new birth control and, unbeknownst to me because all my old bras had stretched so much, my breasts had just grown 3 cup sizes. Imagine my surprise when I tried all the new ones on!

So basically, this was the closest one to fitting, which caught me completely off guard. It's still really only about a cup size too small, I think, because my breasts are really self-supporting, and because it's so low and open on top I can almost get away with it in spite of clearly having too much boob there (my roots are very tall). The wires are comfortable under my arms, even though they aren't quite wide enough, but my roots are super-wide anyway, and it doesn't bother me. Also, the gore is so low! My breasts are so close-set, I love low gores. Can't get enough of them.

The real problem is that the band is too loose, because I really need a 30 or possibly a 28 if Pour Moi? made them in this model. On the tightest hook it's alright, but I've only worn it once, maybe twice ever, and any stretching would make it unwearable without some alteration.

It's a very pretty bra and I love the raspberry color. I'm still not 100% sure I want to put it up for a swap.

I bought the size 12 shorts and they also fit lovely. The ruffles are cute! Just don't try to wear them under, say, a linen skirt.

This bra is not owned any more
