Didn't fit

Cup is actually narrowish and UU shaped, and the depth seems like it's in the right place. This is one of CK's newer models so it could be that they've improved some things which was my hope. However since the cup is narrower than I expected, I may have ordered a cup size too large. I'll give it a try in a 34K and update accordingly. It's a beautiful bra and I love how it's really different in aesthetics than any other bra I've tried so far. I definitely do think it's a huge improvement over CK's old models.

Addendum - After trying the 34K which was much lower cut and too small, I have to say I can't personally recommend this bra. I think that anyone without extremely soft tissue who likes cuts like the Floris could give it a try, but there's also this weird part where the top part of the bra kind of bulges out - it's sewn that way. You can see it in the pic I put up where it's looking up under the bra. I think it's a different material than the more supportive bottom is why.

This bra has a good shape but it was too unsupportive and loose for me in 36K and it has a short top if that makes any sense, so it threatens to spill. Oddly enough, if I put on both bras I get a shape that looks exactly like EM's SM bras, while it was closer to the Jasmine with just the 36K. I think the underwire poked me a tad bit as well. I'll have to personally give up on this bra but if you like it, I think it's worth a try. But to be honest, even the model has some wrinkling and the bulge if you look closely so it may just not be a well designed bra.

  • ack, looks like my Marcie in-cup quad

  • The 34K was so much worse. I think this bra is just a bit of a messed up design. It DOES have a really big top section like the Marcie but it's completely the other way in terms of shape. It's just weird =/ It's the only new CK bra I totally can't recommend.

  • Oh I wanna add that I wasn't quad boobing in the 36K so much as spilling out in the middle, so it was actually kind of wrinkly and spilling...Just a bad shape.

This bra is probably too big for me all over. It seems like a good fit because I see no wrinkles, but it feels like there's a lot of empty space and my boobs are kind of just loosely hanging out in the cups. It also feels like the cup is too "short" and sometimes the gore tacks and sometimes it doesn't. I would try a 34K just for science sake as it seems like this bra has depth in the correct place but it seems too large too.

Top of the cup:
There's a smooth line along the top of the cup
Band fit:
The band is definitely too big

This bra didn't fit her, but these did
