Fits a cup or two larger than a regular 28F. Band is very stretchy.
Would recommend for a 28FF/G or 30F/FF

This bra is so pretty. I bought it to have a piratical and lingerie purpose. Unfortunately I don't think it can be practical for me. First it rolls up on my tummy which is annoying. I do have a round stomach though

I feel up the inside dark pink cups completely but the outside mesh and underlying white fabric will still have wrinkles in it. It defiantly wouldn't work under thin clothes.

So not including the little bit of flowers up top? Just the actual Bra? and Yes I can defiantly do that for you!

Either should work. :)
Thank you! -
8.5 inches. :)

Oh thanks.Yay,so the size I'm gonna try shouldn't be too tall in the cups for me.

It seems way bigger when looking at it. I was shocked it wasn't bigger. Good Luck I hope you like it.

First things first: This bra is so, so very comfortable. The band has a lot of stretch to it, but seems to stay in place despite my sub-28 ribcage (I've only tried it on at this point for reasons which will be outlined below). The materials are all very soft, including the mesh band and outside lining of the cups, which also has lovely lime-green and ivory accents that aren't terribly clear in some of the modeled photos I've seen. I can't imagine a more comfortable longline.
The cups are half-cups like those typical of Freya's, with uplifting two-vertical-seams construction.
However, the cups run much larger than the Curvy Kates ... I've tried on before (I could wear a 28GG in most of them) and larger than Freya's longline cups (I wear a 28FF in those with the best possible results). Thus I'm inclined to believe the hype that Curvy Kate has, indeed, designed some of their newer models with less-shallow cups in mind. The wires still seem very wide, though--too wide for my breasts.
I don't consider myself particularly shallow, though my breasts are firm and largely self-supporting. The cup height is about 5.5" as measured along the outside center of the cups, though the bra appears to come up way too high on my high-set, short-rooted breasts.
I may exchange this to try it in a 28F, as both the wires seem too wide and the cups too deep. Perhaps this will fix my issues!

The cups on this run large. I usually wear 34GG, sometimes 34H, but these cups were too large for me. Or it could be that they expect me to be FoT, which I am not. The style seems similar to the Fleurty. The gore did not tack on me, despite the gaping cups. As with all longlines, I got a lot of wrinkling in the front due to my projected ribs, but at least it didn't flip up like Freya longlines. It even managed to look good on me from the side, but it is not a bra that works at all for me. It is visible under shirts.

It is so pretty! I'm hoping it will work for me though I have my doubts,lol.
Not sure whether to go with a 36H or 36HH...hm..
Could you do me a favor and measure how tall the cups are?While you have it on,measure in the middle of the cup from the bottom wire to the edge of the cup.
