This bra was one of the first bras I purchased to gauge how well bras close to this size would fit. I had read up on bra fitting, but I needed to try some different bras on to understand better and see what worked for me. This bra was inexpensive in like new condition and was one that seemed "popular" due to the large amount of reviews on this site/elsewhere. I use to like bras that had padding, but now I prefer Lacey unlined bras.

When I got this bra, I ended up messing up the strap and tried to fix it for a few weeks. I tried to enlist the help of others, trying to twist and untwist it, and thought someone maybe altered the strap legnth or spacing to fit and then sewed it back wrong. I FINALLY found someone who managed to flip it around in a few different ways to straighten it out.

The bra fit okay cup wise I think, though not exact when I first tried it on. I Have lost weight so by now the cups are a little too big, at least on one side. I believe this bra is too shallow for my more projected breasts. There isn't the massive amount of push up I am use to in my Victoria Secret padded bras, but its thick enough that nothing pokes through,and gives my breasts kind of a round shape. The inside of the cups have some seams that I wasnt use to in my push up/moulded cup Victoria Secret bras. I like the thick straps and the thick band. The tight band felt so relieving and my posture/slumped shoulders looked so much better than when I was wearing band way too big. (Which still amazes me with each new bra I tried with 28 bands. This band was quite comfortable. I like bras that have more than 2 hooks, this has 3 rows of 4 hooks each. It feels sturdy around my underbust. The thick straps also adjust enough for me and do not slide down. The wires feel a bit too wide towards my armpits, I need more narrow wires. The gore is slightly taller than my preference, and has a bow plopped on top which is alright. Having a gore that is too wide and tall pushes the tissues from my my center full breasts back out more east west direction. I Think I need plunge styles or overlapping wires that are more narrow. The cups slightly rubbed in my armpits and the gore dug into my sternum a little when I first tried it on, but a few weeks later it didnt dig as much.

This purple bra is decent and an improvment on my older bras in a way, but not ptotally right for me. It kind of looks youthful, maybe it's the color, bans the big bow on the gore, it reminds me of the bras I wore as a younger teenager but with more seams inside the cups. I still prefer lace bras, or if I wear thicker bras I would rather hey look a little more mature.Ie
