Yay! It fits! I've been lusting after Charlotte for pretty much the whole time I've known about proper bra fit. I discovered her on Large Cup Lingerie and must have gazed longingly at her various shades for far longer than is healthy. I read many reviews, which highlighted her good points (beautiful design, wide band) and some recurring issues (tall cups, stabby painful gore, too long wires) so knew what I was getting into when I ordered the peach version when LCL had a 20% off promo. When it arrived, I popped her on and heard an angelic cheering sound - SHE FIT PERFECTLY! I was worried the band may be too tight as often people say she runs small - but my usual 30 band is perfect. Fairly wide which I love, and fairly wide straps also, a la my usual Decos. Cups are very plunge shaped, but shallow enough to accommodate my not-hugely-projected boobs.
Whilst the fit was spot on, I wasn't enamoured with the colour so much in person - so swapped for the brand new to market Purple Wine and SOOO glad I did! It is stunning, a perfect jewel tone. The cups of this one seem a tad deeper than the peach one, but it may be my imagination (or maybe having the straps longer thus giving the illusion of being deeper). I wore it out today for the first time, and so far, so comfortable. No digging anywhere. The cups are a decent height for me (again I was concerned they'd be too high as I'm fairly short) - anyone who finds Deco cup height ok should be fine with Charlotte I'd imagine, they seem fairly comparable. Wires are wider than Deco though I'd say, not a problem for me but may not suit anyone who needs narrower wires than I.
I'm delighted!! Especially with matching high waist knickers in a Large (I'm UK 12/Medium in all other pants, but these run small, size up I'd advise!).

I'm tempted to get a pair of the little pants too....! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":-D" />
