This is my rock cello bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I could probably easily go to a 34G or a 32G/GG, but this bra is extremely comfortable as is, I just get a LOT of cleavage. As in jacking the ladies to Jesus levels of cleavage. No nipple poking out or anything, so it's acceptable.

I have the purple and aqua colorway and the black and white colorway. I do think the black and white is a smidge larger in the cup.

Back has 3 hooks, it's awesome, I love it. Band is very stretchy, but it holds very tight and doesn't ... shift around on me at all, even with the crazy antics I put it through.

Despite being crazy good at giving me cleavage, I can NOT shake myself out. Jumping around, playing rock cello, playing guitar, headbanging, singing, acting a crazy girl for 2 hours and the worst was the top lace ruffle peeked out a bit when I was leaning forward enough to headbang. The straps showed from time to time, but the shirt is prone to that, so it's not a bra issue.

The ruffle makes this a bit of a problem, if I'm not wearing a tight cami under to cover the lace and ruffle, or if I'm wearing a shirt that I don't care if the ruffle shows. Given as it's in the upper 90's here now, I'm just not wearing them except for performances.

No, it's not the MOST practical of bras. I don't really care, I like them. They're cute, they fit, they give me impressive cleavage, and they fence the ladies in nicely. Plus, I have enough plain bras (ok, 2, but that's enough), so I want fun and cute.

The band stretched out very quickly. Gives nice shape up top to my otherwise empty up top breasts. very comfortable. Side profile makes breasts look pretty flat, think cups are too shallow.

I ordered this in what turned out to be a cup size too small because of some uncertainty about my measurements and because it was very inexpensive and they didn't have the next size. It's definitely small, but it's still wearable despite some gore-poking.

The band is definitely too big, and the frills and ribbons show through most clothes, but I'll keep it anyway.

Band is great but feels like a 34. Cup not bad but not an H in my opinion - I could use a J. However, I LOVE it and will wear it anyway. Who cares about a little quadraboob in a bra that looks lumpy under most clothing anyway? I have tried this in several colorways in 34ff and g, and didn't find the bands noticeably larger (but I do need to measure) so I gambled on the 32h.
I love the 3 hooks, gorgeous materials, and fun matching panty options.
Cups are extremely shallow at the bottom and very open on top (which is how I can get ... away with it, being a fuller on top person)
The wires are a bit wide, but not too tall. Overall, very comfy.
Straps are wide, but I have broad shoulders, so that is rarely an issue. The one issue I really have with quality is the strap, though, as they fold over during wear.
Ruffles are over the top and utterly impractical but soooo cute. To make it more functional, it is possible to remove them (according to one of my favorite bloggers whose name currently escapes me), but I am sticking with them. I might try removal if I had a backup bra.
Bottom line: every woman should have one, as long as she has some upper fullness. And other bras to wear under clothes https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

Lovely bra but too small in the cups. Band is tight, I would choose 32 next time.

Finally, I got my hands on a Curvy Kate Thrill Me - and in purple! Which is the color I really wanted. Many times I saw it on sale on brastop or on ebay but never in my size. But then I got lucky, pinkwonder had a Thrill Me and wanted to trade for my too-shallow Cleo Darcy Padded Balconette (6821). I know it was a gamble because the Curvy Kate Tempt Me (SG4001) and Curvy Kate Elegance (CK1401) did abysmal things to my poor boobs, due to how wide and shallow the cups are. I fared a ... little better with the Curvy Kate Tease Me [showgirl Collection] (SG2001) although there was an odd flattening effect from the side, while at the same time my breasts were pushed up to my neck.

The Curvy Kate Thrill Me [showgirl Collection] (SG3001) is cut pretty similar to the Tease Me, but it seems like it's a little deeper. This also could be because I went up a cup size and down a band size, because the Tease Me bordered on quadboob territory. It is a delicious shade of purple with jade ribbon trim. There is also a purple net ruffle going along the top of the cups. In typical Showgirls fashion, the ribbon and trims seem over-the-top and not very practical for everyday wear. But I was determined to wear this bra yesterday so I found a dress that worked more or less with the bra. This dress has a ruched top; the looseness of the fabric hid any lumps that the ribbons might cause. The armholes are a little big, so you could see my bra there a little bit, but people are just going to have to get over the fact that I wear a bra.

The Thrill Me is almost too wide for me. The cups are also a little on the shallow side, so there is a minimizing effect from the side, similar to the Tease Me, but not as bad. The gore comes up pretty high so this is not a bra for low cut tops. I ended up removing those dang bows that sprout from the ends of the cups because all they do is end up in my armpits. They strike me as a pointless, chafe-inducing detail.

The band is very stretchy for a 28, but I've come to expect that from Curvy Kate. I've decided I'm going to hang on to this bra, but sell/exchange my other Curvy Kates. (I'm still on the fence about the Tease Me! It's just so impractical...)

Sizes oddly... I fit a 32G in Freya and would in most Curvy Kate except the center gore tends to be too wide on me. The width was not an issue in this bra. The band is a BIG 30, I did get it slightly used from another poster so perhaps it stretches quickly? The cups are small, dropping a band and moving to the GG still wasn't enough to hold it all in - but the cleavage was spectacular.

The bra is beautiful but I may have trouble figuring out what I can wear it with as the ruffle detailing on the top of the cups is rather pronounced.

Would like to try in a 30H.

It fits me but so far it's not very comfortable, because the wires poke into my sternum and my ribs (not my breast tissue, otherwise I wouldn't have kept it!). I can only wear it with a folded tissue under the centre gore. I was assured that this bra would become more comfortable with wear, so I decided to keep it (also because it was pretty cheap at Brastop and I really like the colour).
I agree with denocte that the cups are very flat, especially at the bottom, but I still like the shape they give me - it makes a nice change from the round Cleo shape. The ruffles show under thin tops and t-shirts but not as much as I thought they would.
I'll write more later when I've worn the bra a bit more..

I love this bra! It is perfect for my tear drop shape breasts and the fact that my breasts sit low on my chest...it makes me look perky! The only problem I have is the gore...it leaves red marks on my chest wall and I may need the next size up because I get a bad quad boob and I feel it is smashing my breasts down
