This is my first bra that's anywhere near an appropriate size for me (used to wear 32A or 30B). Now I don't even know how I ever wore my old bras -- this one is so much more comfortable! With that being said, I have to wear it on the tightest hook, even though it's new; even then, it still feels like it doesn't stay in place (rides up slightly). However, I measure less than 26" underbust, so I think this would be perfect for someone who measures closer to a 28". I've read elsewhere that this model has a slightly bigger band than the other Curvy Kate bras, but I don't know that from experience. The cups create a pretty nice, rounded shape for my splayed breasts and seem best for those who are FOB. I would say the quality is great for the price I got it at and am hoping it doesn't stretch out too quickly. The racer-back feature is nice, for those who like having that option. The only thing I don't love about it is the mesh band in the back, just because it looks a bit tacky to me. One last note, I removed the bows and dangling rhinestone from the bra, which is why it looks a little different from the original.

  Great to hear you're finding your size, bands vary in different brands so there are tighter ones out there.

  Comexim makes smaller bands and it looks like they run on the small side, too. I haven't tried one of their bras yet but I covet the Comexim Laura (134) and its related models. Sigh.

  From what I gather, several on here seem to think Cleo/Panache runs tight in the band. The Juna I tried I didn't find particularly tight, but I do find the cups to run smaller.
