I wanted to like Carmen but there were a few factors that made me send it back. First, I didn't care for the stiff fabric. It may have softened up with washing so that wasn't the deal breaker. I've learned that Elomi wires are too wide for me. The shape would have been fine but I had too much empty fabric on the sides to justify keeping. For reference, Curvy Kate tends to be a little wide for me and this was far wider than CK. Otherwise, the shape was nice, I liked the appearance of the plunge and the low gore, and the band seemed to run true to size.
