I ordered this bralette as a matching set for me and my partner. The bottoms fit great, and are very soft, but I was very disappointed by the bralette.

My measurements are 28 inch underbust and 36 inch bust.

The sizing chart states that size Small is made for someone with a 28.5-30.5 inch underbust and 34-36 inch bust.
However, it also states that size Small should fit 34AA, 34A, 36AAA, 32B, 34B, 32C, and 32D.
With the measurements listed, the bra should fit someone more between 28H (my size) and 30D.
If I tug on the bra really hard, I can stretch it to 31.5 inches.
The bra will never fit anyone who is a 34 or 36 band. With a 28.5-30.5 inch underbust, size 34 and 36 would be much too large.

I spoke to the customer service who confirmed that size Small should fit me best.
Unfortunately, that was not the case.

When I tried the bra on, the band felt okay. It might have slid up if I had worn it for more than 5 minutes, but I couldn’t do that due to the cups. My breast tissue was spilling out from every angle. Quadboob in the front. Sideboob on both sides. Even underboob, making the band hover on my chest, instead of supporting anything.
My friend said that my breasts looked like elephant seals. She was right. This bra was extremely unflattering.

As for the more technical bit… The band of this bralette measures 30 inches when stretched. The cups are right below 5 inches wide and about 6.5 inches deep.
Based on those measurements, size Small fits approximately a 30C. Maybe a small band and shallow 32B/C.

The only positive thing I can say is that the fabric was soft. I’d love to try it again, in a size more accurately reflected by the size chart.

  I will add elephant seals to my mental list of things I've heard people call breasts lol that's a new one! I wanted to try this brand to get a matching set with my husband but I was unsure of sizing. Maybe I'll just go with the matching undies. I've heard great things about how soft they are. I recently got some Kindred Bravely and Davy Piper (sister brands) bralettes in their busty range and they're actually a really good fit if you're still looking for a comfy bralette option.

  Oh! I didn't know Kindred Bravely and Davy Piper were sister brands! I've read good things about Kindred Bravely bralettes (reasonable on amazon).

  BraOdyssey I think Kindred Bravely is the maternity focused brand and Davy Piper is more general. I've tried both brands and they seem to be very similar, if not the same bras. I was looking for a good crossover bralette and they were recommended on several sites and in r/abtf so I tried one that was on clearance and it's really comfortable.
