This is the black and silver colourway. The back is pretty tight, much tighter than my 28H Thrill me was.

It is a very wide and shallow bra, even in this size. It is the complete opposite of what i need for my boobs. I bought it because it's so pretty and I had only really explored Curvy Kate at the time, so i was nervous about buying other brands!

Most people recommend going up two cup sizes in this bra, but that was too much for me. Wires much too wide, cup much too big. What a shame, because it's gorgeous and lined with some of the softest fabric I've ever felt on a bra!

I purchased this bra in the almond and black colourway and it looks lovely. Despite the fitting issues, it is in many ways a comfortable bra. The issues I have with this bra are:

- The straps being too wide for my shoulders and therefore painfully cutting in under my arm. I don't think I have narrow shoulders, however, the straps are too wide for me.

- The cup being too high under my arm and uncomfortably rubbing. I must note that the wire itself does not poke me; it is the fabric between the wire and the strap which bothers me.

- The wires at the centre not laying completely ... flat. The gore itself is flat as is one of the wires but the other wire pokes out because there is not enough space between my breasts. I believe this issue is caused because I am fairly close-set. I think if the centre gore were to be lower, this wouldn't be much of a problem.

- The wires in the centre are a little painful against my sternum (but much more comfortable than some other bras I have tried).

I will be parting with this bra due to the straps and high cups rubbing under my arms. If it were not for this problem I would consider keeping it as I am quite happy with the fit and, of course, the look of the bra.

So so pretty! I feel very sexy in this. But it's not right for me. 1. The strap placement is far too wide - the straps begin in my armpits and dig in when I move my arms. 2. It gives an odd silhouette from the side, very flat. I find this with all Curvy Kate, the cups are so shallow, which isn't right for me.

This bra is massive on me!

i won it on an Ebay auction for super cheap, so i don't mind too much, but there is some serious Orange in the Glass effect going on for me, along with gaping like crazy at the top. The gore doesn't lie flat and i can pull the bra out from my sternum by about 3 inches. It's a shame because it is soooo pretty!
The back is slightly more true to size than Thrill Me, but is still roomy for a 28 band.

On a side note, the knickers come up tight with this model. I got my usual size, and i *can* get them on, but only just - i would say to buy the next size up in the knickers!

I can start off by saying I own three colours of this fabulous bra; powder blue/ivory, red/black and pink/white. I can't say I feel any difference between the colours (as is the case for some bras). I'm usually a 28GG in Curvy Kate's soft bras but, as for many others, I needed to size up in the Showgirl collection. I tried 28H but it runs a tad too small and so I ended up trying on 28HH which is as good as it can get. Mind you, this is meant to be a "bedroom bra" and not for every day use. I however find that it's comfortable enough to wear during the day aswell, though usually under tight fitting tops because otherwise my boobs kinda wants to "peek out" from the top.

For the intended purpose, this is a comfortable and very sexy bra which gives you a great cleavage. But you do probably want to size up atleast one cup from your regular size.
