    Didn't fit

    Fit: the band runs at least one size small. It distorts the cups to hook the bra on the loosest hooks to the point where the cups do very weird things- see the first set of pictures of me busting out of the bra.

    So I assessed the fit with a full nonstretch extender. It is still too small. I think it’s deep enough at the wire but generally a size too small. It could also be more centered, but there does appear to be some center room. Probably the plunge helps that. The material is fairly thick and strong.

    The bra itself is really well made, soft and comfortable.

    Ultimately if I could wear a 38J or JJ this would probably fit.

    Navy colorway

    • Ah, shame about the size but I do find this to be the case with a lot of padded bras where the cups run smaller by one size, not sure why :/

    • Oh, the cups are probably fine, maybe a half size down. I’m wearing a 40JJ/K right now so I expected it. It’s the band that runs small.

    • For instance, compare it with my Comexim plunge in the same size: https://www.bratabase.com/compare/dltpe/

      Did you try wearing two extenders or the one with the elastic bitty on it? If the cups are fine, shame that the bra goes to waste as it looks really good on you!

    • The straps are too wide for that. It’s ok. I don’t need it.

    • This one is a perfect demonstration of how high set you are. So, though it is a poor fit, it serves a purpose for that example. (Sorry it doesn't fit though. :'( )

      It’s also those short roots. Cakes on a plate? More like muffins in a mug.

    • Haha! Mug cakes! 😄
