This bra is gorgeous and well-made, but just dramatically too small in the cups. The band runs very tight as well, a 32 band would be suitable for people who enjoy a snug 30, as this bra only stretched to 29.75 with a fair amount of pressure. Note that BARE uses US sizing as the default, this is a UK 32F and a U.S. 32G.

The band on this was much firmer/tighter than I was expecting. Fortunately I am in between 28 and 30, so it worked out okay, however if you run on the larger side of your band size, consider sizing up. Overall it is quite comfy, though it is not the best fit for me. The wires are pretty wide, and the cups are on the smaller side, so you may want to size up here too. I personally couldn't because the wires are already wide enough for me as is, so I will just deal with some small quadding. FOT shapes may have a rough time with this bra.

This bra is very pretty. I’ve been looking for a functional everyday bra that is sexy and practical and this one seemed appropriate. The unpadded push up part had me very curious and it seemed like something that would word for me given it was in fact it is advertised to be. And I am not disappointed. I haven’t had luck with unpadded bras in 30:7 so I sized down. The cup on my bigger side cuts a bit into tissue slightly which is only visible when wearing a fitted shirt it’s nothing worth acknowledging really. I’ve accepted that I’m never finding a “perfect” fit. The comfort and quality of this bra works for me. My only issue is that the straps are too wide for my small frame. But luckily they cross cross in the back which fixes that right up. Only can’t wear it with a tank top so…. If it weren’t for this issue I’d probably get more colors in this style.

I am a 36F (UK). My shape is projected and full on top.

Band: Difficult to fasten, but feels snug and sits parallel to the ground.
Wires: Slightly wide on me.
Gore: Tall on this bra, doesn't sit against my skin at the top. A good width for my shape.
Cup size: When I swoop and scoop, the upper cup is slightly loose. There's a gap I can slide my finger in. Meanwhile, the underarm (not the underwire) is digging into my arm pits. Because of this, keeping the cups sitting on my inframammary fold is difficult.
Straps: Nothing to complain about.

The biggest problem for me is the underarm digging in.

This bra creaks when it stretches... Also, there is too much room in the top of the cup for me, and because the straps are positioned so widely, tightening the straps does not fix the gapping.
