My shape: FOB, projected, soft tissue, narrow roots and shoulders
Appearance: This bikini is so darn cute!! (Makes it even worse that it fits me so poorly, wahhh) The fabric print looks like yarn in all kinds of colors: bright reds, oranges, yellows, blues, purples, greens... rainbow yarn print! The majority of the bikini is a bright cobalt blue shade, perfect for summer. At the gore is a hot pink bow. The straps have the same yarn print fabric, as well.
The cups are constructed of 4 vertical seams at the bottom, and one horizontal seam across the top. Those extra seams definitely help with projection!
Fit: Another huge bikini disappointment. ... https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I have yet to find a swimsuit that fits me! I'm starting to get a little depressed about it.
Anyways, the cups are really tall and there's a Grand Canyon of gape-age at the tops of the cups. The wires are not as narrow as I hoped, and the straps dig into my armpits. I think a soft cup bikini MIGHT work better for me, but at this point, I am writing off Dalia as a brand that works for me. Sad, because they have a LOT of super cute bikinis and bras.

My shape: FOB, projected, soft tissue, narrow roots and shoulders
Appearance: For a beige bra, this is quite pretty, in an understated way. The cup is constructed of 5 pieces: 4 vertical(ish) seams on the bottom of the cup, and one horizontal across the top. The top part is made of lace, but it is not stretchy, other than the elastic piece sewn across the top of it. The straps are wide - 1 inch - and have matching ribbon halfway up. There are 3 sets of 3 hooks.
Fit: There's not much more disappointing than waiting for a month for Polish bras and bikinis, only to have none of ... them fit. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Luckily, this particular style was on sale - I paid 22.94, which isn't terrible, especially for such a well-constructed bra. It is just too tall, and too wide in both wire and strap. If Ewa Michalak straps give you problems, I would not recommend Dalia bras, as their straps are even wider set. (Too wide for me to risk moving them myself.) The wires aren't as narrow as other Polish brands I have tried, either.
Overall, I am pretty bummed. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Hopefully I can sell this to someone it will fit and recoup some funds to try something different!

Huge shout-out to Mandapandarawks for sending me some bras to try out.

This was one of three that was sent to me, and unfortunately it ended up being too big in the cups and too tight in the band.
