    This bra looks very pretty on the Curvy Kate model and even on the lingerie bloggers, but I guess it's completely wrong for me. I can hook on the innermost hooks which means I probably need a 28 band size instead. The mesh portion is kind of open on top which produces some wrinkling unless I perform more scooping and adjusting than usual. The fabric section of the cups is much thicker than the mesh, producing a triangular shape on my full on the bottom breasts. The details, while pretty, will not go with many of my clothes as they show through the clothing. I have since returned this bra.

    28FF

    Didn't fit

    This is the most uncomfortable bra I've tried on so far, in all sizes. I tried everything from 28F through 28GG (28G was a pretty much perfect fit) and all of them were downright painful where the underwires touched my ribs, especially on my left side. It's entirely possible that bending the wires to conform to my shape would have alleviated the problem, but I didn't try that since I wasn't keeping any of the bras. It's too bad that this bra didn't work out for me, even in the correct size, because I like the overall design and it looks so pretty from the front. I just wasn't a fan of the shape it gave as viewed from the side (too pointy for me). The band was nice and tight; in fact, it seemed a bit tighter than any of the other Curvy Kate balconettes I've tried. Moreover, it was the only CK balconette that fit my shallow shape. I wish it had worked for me.

    This bra was just all wrong for me. Even if I had gotten it in a size that fit me, I believe that I would have that ever hated east/west boob thing going on. The fabrics and the construction of the bra are nice. The band is stretchy and does not feel tight. The underwire is a bit too tall for me as well.

    Hasn't set fit

    Much, much prettier than pics show with super soft fabric. No spillover/quad boob. Straps are far apart and keep slipping off my shoulders. Underwires are wide but there's no poking.

    * Note that I typically wear a 32 band in CK but HAD to buy this since on clearance at Brastop. Using extender since bra is brand new, but am able to fasten w/o.

    This bra is very pretty and has wires long enough to accommodate for my wide and shallow breasts. It doesn't poke at all. However I am fuller on the bottom and the lace part does wrinkle a bit. This could be due to the bra being a bit wrongly shaped for my breasts, or just the way the fabric is. The wrinkliness does go away a bit after extensive swooping and scooping (where did that come from) and good posture

    The band is sufficiently tight, but does make a bit of the "back fat" prominent, which can be fixed with swooping and scooping.

    The bows are so pretty!

    32G

    Didn't fit

    The band on this feels tight to me, but this is the first bra I've ever purchased that fits in the cups so I think it's probably normal. For comparison, I've been buying molded-cup 38Ds for some time. I don't have any problem with the wires poking and I'm happy with the height of the center gore. The seams are a little thick, so if I wear this under a thin T I'd definitely have to wear a tank top too. The straps are a little wide-set, but my shoulders are broad so they work. The only thing I'm not entirely pleased with is the shape, which seems to me to be a little pointy. I think I'm just not used to the shape a soft cup gives compared to a molded cup.

    Fits

    This bra actually fit extremely well. The quadboob, although present on my larger side, was ever so slight. Going up a cup size had me swimming in the cups. I'd say my larger side was only about 1/4 cup-size too large, just enough to be barely noticeable. That said, there was no way I was keeping this bra. It looks very pretty from the front, but the shape it gave me is one I particularly dislike. Sort of a downward-sloping pointiness that was incredibly unflattering, both on its own and underneath a shirt. I know that CK sometimes gives a pointy shape when a bra is too small ... in the cup, but even on my smaller side (which fit wonderfully) the same shape was evident. This just isn't the bra for me, given my personal preferences. The bra was mostly comfortable for the few minutes I wore it, though it did hit uncomfortably against my usual problem spot on one side of my rib cage. If I were keeping it, that might be easily fixed by bending the wires to accommodate the shape of my ribs.

    30E

    Didn't fit

    The only real problem with this bra is that it gives a very pointy shape and there is empty fabric it the tips of the cups.

    I´m really not sure if the wires are wide enough, but I think they are adequate. I´m going to alter the cups because I like this bra´s appearance so much. The cut is not good for me, so another size would not be good, I think. And there are not really other sizes left, I think they´re not producing this model anymore.

    One thing that I really wonder. The straps don´t stretch much at all! It was a real surprise.

    EDIT1. I have to say that the band runs snug! I normally need 28, and this 30 is tight enough for me even after some use. The band is not very stretchy, same thing with the straps.

    36E

    Fits

    I think this is the most comfortable bra I own. The satiny cups are smooth and soft against my skin. I ordered this bra in my sister size of 36E as a 34F wasn't in stock. The band is stretchy, but doesn't ride up. There is a mesh and floral lace detail at the top of the cups, the mesh is purple and the floral embroidery is a salmon/pink. There is a satin salmon/pink bow at the center gore and where the cups meet the band. The fully adjustable elastic straps are the same salmon/pink color as is the stitching and underside trim of the bra. The underwires are a perfect fit for me - nice and wide.

    Unfortunately this doesn't fit well. The band is too big and the cups a tad too small and need adjesting throughout the day. Also gives an east-west look. I REALLY wished the Curvy kate bras were true to cup size because i love the look of them!
