Fits

I love this bra! The gold color is divine. I feel pretty in it. Somehow this bra provides me with centering and forward projection while also eliminating cleavage (I prefer not to have cleavage. I purchased this bra because I was tired of only buying bras that we more "balconette" style. I don't like how balconettes look, I don't like how the straps connect to the cups with the little bow. They're tolerable and just fine in a good fit, but I don't love it. This bra looked unique, and it delivered! The straps are slightly more centered because of the high apex style, and I don't get any of that pinchy feeling by the armpits that can sometimes happen with balconettes where the straps connect. The wires are so comfy compared to my past Cleo and panache bras! The lace overlay around the band is cute, and would make it look kind of like a longline if it would lay flat. but if you have any extra skin/tissue/body fat on your ribcage, it isn't going to stay flat. Sorry. It's not uncomfortable and doesn't bother me.

This may not count as a technically perfect fit though. Here are my "fit issues":
- the cup is somewhat closed on top with a bit of elastic. Occasionally this will cut into my tissue (not painfully) depending on how I am sitting/standing/moving. IT is not noticeable under clothing, and was less noticeable at the end of the day so I think as the elastic wears, it will diminish. However, I don't think this style would be appropriate for FOT breasts for this reason. Even-fullness and close-set breasts will likely also have an issue with it. I think it will work best for short roots(me) or FOB, even though the high apex might deter you.
-the gore is slightly too wide for me. Because the wires are soft, it doesn't hurt or bother me. I may alter it later.
- I have to wear it on the second hook. Can't buy a smaller band because it only goes up to a G cup in this style. sad face

Regardless of this, I love this bra so much I immediately purchased it in two more colors. I also got the matching boyshorts and they are so soft and comfy. Very cute set, highly recommend.
