Positives: nice tight band, gore tacks, comfortable fabric, pretty good wing height.
Negatives: cup filled well at the bottom, wrinkles a TON at the top mesh portion, gives a very pointy shape, my nipples hit right in the mesh after the thick bottom half and when erect poke there making the poor/unfilled fit even more obvious.
I think I just don't fit into Curvy Kate's unlined bras.

This is a great little bra. Cute, made out of a nice material. I ordered it in a sister size of what I usually wear because it was on sale and if it fit would be totally worth it. And it fits well enough for me to call it fitting and keep it, except for one thing that constantly gets me: nipples.
Bras like this that are lightly lined on the bottom and lace on the top never seem to be made for me. The 30E - Parfait By Affinitas » Kelly Wire Bra (6702) and 30E - Parfait By Affinitas » Donna Wire Bra (1702) both do this to me as well - the cup and cut fit just fine, but my nipples fall just above where the lining stops. I generally just push my nipples down into the lined part and it works fine, but in this bra my left nipple falls way the fuck above the lining and pushing it in is one thing, but it doesn't stay!

I fell in love with this bra the moment I saw pictures of it online, but I was a bit disappointed with the shape. Aside from not quite being able to fill the bottom, I used to fit the bra quite nicely until I had some homeward migration occur, now I've got spillage out of pretty much all of my bras unless I tuck myself in (goodness I hate tucking myself in!). It's quite comfortable regardless of any fit issues.

I was optimistic about this one, but it doesn't seem to fit quite right, which is disappointing because I love the look of Lotties, and the colour is very nice. It's quite comfortable. It feels like a true 34 band, which is nice. I'll be wearing this for now, but I will probably list it soon enough.

Love the style and material, will have to try in a bigger size.

This bra is very pretty and my husband loves it on me.
It is comfortable for a few hours but not all day. Wires poke into me as if the bottom is pulled out and tips of wires poking in.
Large breast fills out bra nicely but definite gaping on my smaller side. Thinking of hand stitching it in so it doesn't wrinkle so much.
Bought with the intention of changing it to a nursing bra but decided not to because the center gore is too high to pull down the cup without ruining the bra.
Comes up high in the armpits so that sleeveless tops don't cover it on the sides.

Beautiful bra with sheer panels. Lovely bow detailing. Fantastic uplift.

This bra is really comfortable as long as I'm on/near my period and my boobs are swollen. If not, I can't quite fill the top of the cup since I'm heavier on the bottom. I can't wear CK in a G either. After a few hours of wear, you get what some bloggers have called the "upside down 7" effect since the top panel stretches but isn't elasticized. I don't feel like I'm going anywhere though (I've run around work in this) and I've worn it for 12+ hours without significant marking so it was worth buying.

This one also needed to be taken in along the mesh/solid fabric line because the top of the cup gapped.

The underwires are a tad too wide for me. I also found that the material on the top of the cup will wrinkle, and the bottom will gape, depending on how I adjust my breasts in the cup. I feel that this is to do with the underwires and may try Freya next (their 28FF Taylor is a little small in the cup for me but I wear it instead of this 28G). I feel that the gore hurts my chest some aswell, which is to do with the underwires. All in all it is a lovely bra, didn't get any torpedo boobs with it, but the Curvy Kate brand just doesn't suit me.
