    Didn't fit

    This is the best fit I've ever had with a bra. I can tell it's not perfect, but I don't have anything better to compare it with (yet). I'm sad that I have to return it, but if I had gotten it cheaper I'd seriously consider keeping it... But it was $66 on amazon and I really can't justify that.

    I can wear it comfortably on the 3rd hook (brand new) so that is only adding to my desire for 26 bands, although it wouldn't be a big deal if it was the only issue - I'd happily alter it or wear a rixie clip after it stretched ... out. The real reason is that I seriously don't think I can do soft cups. First of all, I can't wear most of my wardrobe and be modest. Which is enough, really. But after having this bra on for about an hour, my skin is starting to feel irritated and itchy. I don't think I could be comfortable with this as a daily bra... maybe with nipple tape? I thought that was just a modesty thing but someone mentioned to me recently that they thought it could make this kind of bra more comfortable. Anyway, I'm not going to keep this bra long enough to figure it out, but it's something I'd like to explore later. Also, while the shape it gives me isn't horrible, it could be better. Oh, and the gore digs into righty a little https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

    Positives: The fit in the cup amazed me. It seems to be just my size, with the wire circling around my breast like it's supposed to and my breasts filling out the whole cup. Even though it wasn't worth keeping, it was exciting to think, "omg! Something that fits my boobs! There is hope!!"

    Note: I'm wearing the band on the tightest hook in the pictures.

    Hasn't set fit

    This is my first bra that actually fits using my proper measurements. So far I really like it- even if the color is a bit wild for me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> I wish it had a little more padding, and was a bit less sheer through the top, but it shapes me very well and is leaps and bounds more comfortable than I could have expected. My smaller side (right) tends to get rubbed a bit by the fabric and gets red after a long day though, might need a different model/brand. Overall a great bra!

    Didn't fit

    I am narrow, projected, and full on bottom with tall, sloping roots that make me functionally even in some respects. I'm also enter full and close set.

    I got this used, so the band may be stretchier than if it were new. It fits me best on the tightest hook. It does fairly well accommodating my need for immediate projection. When I scoop and swoop, the gore ends up sitting on tissue in the center, but the cup separation is still better than many bras. The top of the fabric doesn't cut in and the wires are suitably narrow for me. It gives a decently roundish shape, a rarity when you're full on bottom but have to accommodate tall roots, but the lace pattern shows through many shirts, so it's a mixed bag in terms of look under clothes for me.

    28FF

    Fits

    My Stats: FOB, projected, close set, firm and dense tissue.
    Size: Normally 28FF, got this in a 28FF. I got this in a grab bag from Breakout Bras. They accidentally sent me a 30FF instead of a 28FF. They were nice enough to send me the correct size.

    Bra Stats
    Appearance: orangey balconette with green bow details. There are circular wheel looking embroidery throughout the cups.

    Cups: decently projected cups and good length wires. Not too projected and not too shallow. The bottom half of the cup is a double layer and the part above the seam in single layer. This one fit better in the cups versus the 30FF.

    Band: firm band, good support. Maybe a smidge too tight which leads me to believe that I'm closer to a 30 inch band.

    Gore: gore is of mid height and tacks

    Straps: regular distance apart

    Shape Under Clothing: a more natural and peaked shape which I'm not really into.

    Melon/Apple colorway

    Cups: decently projected cups and good length wires. Not too projected and not too shallow. The bottom half of the cup is a double layer and the part above the seam in single layer. Since this bra is in a cup size larger than what I normally take, there is some wrinkling on my smaller side and just a bit on my larger side.

    Band: firm band, good support.

    Gore: gore is of mid height and tacks

    Didn't fit

    I bought this bra in the melon/apple color, and it's BEAUTIFUL. So I am disappointed that this does not fit. I suspect that the cups are too shallow for my amount of projection and/or shape. The band is perfect, straps adjust well, and it sits right at my IME and not on my stomach. However, there's a LOT of wrinkling in the cups on the side and at the top, as well as gaping at the top. It wouldn't even be hidden under heavier fabric. This bra might be good for those who have more volume on top or are moderately shallow.

    I love this bra and have it in two colours. It is really comfortable and I can happily wear it all day. My only issue with it is a slight gaping at the top of the cups. After a few years of wear it is a little stretched but still supportive

    30F

    Fits

    Lovely saffron color. Almost red enough to disappear under a white shirt. Unfortunately, like many curvy kate bras, the embroidery shows through thin shirts. Projected, and creates a nice round shape. Not as perfectly round as some cleo bras, but much rounder than unlined freya.

    I get a minor, barely noticable wrinkle across the main seam on one side - not really noticeable under a shirt (unlike the embroidery, did I mention that already?) It frustrates me that curvy kate bras, which are cute and projected and fit, almost always have such visible embroidery. That only works for me under a sweater, and at that point I'll be wearing my EM S padded bras! If CK comes out with a Dreamcatcher cut without embroidery, I'll be the first to snatch it up.

    30J

    Hasn't set fit

    I read that this bra runs a cup size small, but has good projection, and so ordered 2 in 30J when I found them on sale. Unfortunately, I didn't size up enough - I am still getting quadding even on my smaller side. I wore this bra anyway, and it felt ok for some hours, but in the evening suddenly became really tight and painful in the band, the wires and the straps. Something must have shifted. I had to take it off and switch to one of my old faithful bras.

    Didn't fit

    I'm so disappointed. I really wanted to love this bra. I got the beige color way, which is just perfect for my skin tone and the print is super cute. But I ended up with a really bad case of upside down 7 and just can't make it work. I also got quadboob on my larger side, but not enough to size up.
