    28FF

    Used to fit

    I was actually quite surprised with this bra. I bought this off Ebay used and when I opened it up i thought there was no way my boobs were fitting in this. It looked small for a 28FF. It is a bit tight, esp for being used, but its actually a pretty nice fit. After trying my CK Gia in a 28G, i wasn't really sure if this would work or not. The Princess gives a much nicer shape under clothes, not too pointy but nothing too round, very natural. My Gia is pointy boobs all the way and the top lacy part of the cup wrinkles. It ... doesn't seem to do that with the Princess. But it does show thru on light shirts, the little dots and the bows are visible. But i feel like my Gia sort of pushes everything front and center so there is zero side boob. The Princess has a little bit more east west projection and not as much lift as the Gia, for me. But it still feels very supportive. One of my fav things about CK is that they use 3, instead of just 2, hooks and eyes on the back of the band for larger cups. I wish ALL brands did this, or at least made it an option, because for me, it seems to make such a difference in the overall support.

    The gore isn't too high for me which is unusual with my close-set boobs. But it did start to dig in my sternum pretty quickly and left a nasty red indentation when i took the bra off only after about 30 minutes. I still marked this as a fit in the system since this was my only real complaint. The straps are so pretty but the decorative flower design doesn't allow them to be fully adjustable. But it's not really a problem unless you were to tighten them to the max, which doesn't seem too practical anyway. Lol. When i first put the bra on the straps were tightened all the way. But I don't know why I thought that would work honestly (too lazy to adjust them i guess, haha) and it gave me massive quad boob. So i loosened them completely and the bra fit perfectly after that https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    Overall, this is a pretty bra. I'm not as crazy about the shape it gives without clothing as I am with it under a shirt, if that makes any sense. It's actually the complete opposite of my Gia. With the Gia, I LOVE the look and shape it gives...until i put on a shirt. Weird. I think the Princess looks better in my pics on me than it does in person. It's not a bra I would spend big bucks on, but it seems like it could be a great "summer" bra, nice and light.

    This bra is really cute but the cut is kinda awkward. It creates a strange quad-boob effect where the fabric on the cup changes from a solid to a sheer fabric. The cup size might be too small. I think I'll try ordering a size up to see if that fits better since it really is a cute bra.

    This bra is absolutely lovely, but I wish it was comfortable! The front of my armpits were so sore after wearing it for a few hours! The underwire was also too wide for my breasts. The look of the bra is beautiful, but unfortunately, I would not wear it under most clothing as the material appears bumpy and uneven from the lace. All in all, good bra to wear if you know you'll be taking it off immediately..which I guess isn't a good bra to wear at all!

    Used to fit

    I really want to love this bra. The detailing on it is so beautiful, and despite the wrinkle in the cup, it give a nice appearance under shirts. The band is very firm and feels quite supportive.

    The underwires are not friendly to my sternum, and stab in at the gore. An hour of wearing this bra yesterday left my sternum red, irritated and feeling bruised even still today. I do really like that the underwires encapsulates all of my breast tissue, rather than stopping short at the armpit like Freyas do.

    The cup wrinkles just slightly at the top, at the sheer panel between the lace and the bottom part of the cup. If I fold that section into the cup, so that the lace meets the solid part of the cup, the fit is perfect. So I would say this cup is just a tiny bit too big. I wonder if bending the underwires would help the fit at the sternum?

    I have a full review of this bra on my blog http://curvywordy.blogspot.com/2012/01/curvy-kate-princess-in-wine-and-in.html

    In summary it is a lovely bra but sadly it was not a good fit for me in band or cup in the sizes I tried. I am hoping to try other sizes though as I think my correct fit is still out there somewhere!

    It's a very pretty style with polka dot cups (the dots have a velvety feel to them which is very tactile) and the lower half of the cups is double lined for extra support.

    The cups were too wide for me - my preference is definitely for a narrower but deeper cup.

    The central gore laid flat on me and the underwires did not poke at all.

    Overall a very comfortable bra despite being the wrong size.

    28G

    Didn't fit

    I was really hoping this bra would be the answer to all my frustrations! I had heard that this was on the small side and as I am finding most of my 28ffs seem a bit too small, thought therefore 28g in this might be perfect. But unfortunately not. Whilst the 28ff was definetely too small, the 28g wasn't right either. It was too high under my arms and I wasn't filling out the top of the cups properly (which is often the case for me - maybe because I am short???). Also the shape was a bit funny. In the 28ff ... the shape is really lifted and round (although it didn't fit) but in the 28g I felt my breasts were sitting too low and I had to make the strap really tight to lift them high enough which became a bit uncomfortable. (so far all the Curvy Kate and Flirtelle styles I have tried seem to be similar fit for me - i.e. they don't seem right! - which is unfortunate as they make really pretty styles and there bands are perfect for me)

    This is such a pretty bra! I am so sad it doesn't fit me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

    I think the shape is just all wrong for me. The straps are much too wide set, and there is not enough support in the cups (in addition to them being too small) so my boobs are saggy and overflowing. The placement of the seam between the thicker, lined lower portion of the cup and the thinner, unlined upper portion hits much too low and winds up creating a sort of square shape to my boob where the lower portion goes down and then at the ... seam the go straight up as they press against the thinner upper portion of the cup. (Though this effect is not as bad in the Princess as in the Emily I tried on.) I honestly really like how the lower/outer (thicker) portion of the cup fits, but it just drops the ball above that. I think this bra will work better for someone with perkier boobs with more of their own rounded shape, and/or someone with much wider shoulders.

    The bra does seem like if it fit well it would be quite comfortable. It is nice and light-feeling (although I wonder if it's too light-weight to stand up to really big boobs) and very sexy and pretty.

    Like other reviewers I've seen, I suspect if I could get this several cup sizes bigger and tighten the straps up I could get it to fit much better. I would really need something like a 32LL or so for this to really fit well. Curvy Kate, your sizing makes me very sad https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
