Disclaimer: This bra is the wrong size for me. I knew that when purchasing it, BUT I was curious as to what it would look like to have a bra with a depth closer to my breast perimeter (this one is about 12.6 inches). However, it fits pretty well when I put in a second set of pad (that's how the pictures were taken) so I'm actually debating keeping it. It also makes me wonder if I would do better in a 70JJ than a 70J.

This bra is so much prettier than it is in the pictures. It is black with a black floral lace overlay, which has ... some gold embroidery. The lace is not wrap around, and stops about an inch after the edge of the cup (just eyeballing that measurement). The gore has a black bow with with a little pendant on it.

I'm not really sure how much validity any of my fit comments will be, because it is not quite the right size. I'll still give my thoughts though. Firstly, this bra is super comfortable. The fabric is probably the softest out of all of my bras. The straps also don't seem to be nearly as much of a problem as they are in my S Granatowa Pantera.

The PL cut definitely gives a much more rounded shape overall than the S cut. While the S cut kind has a lot of vertical roundness (you look round top to bottom), the PL cut also has horizontal roundness (you look rounded from side to side as well). There is definitely noticeably less lift in the PL cut than the S cut. I think that the PL cut would probably work better on people who have more upper fullness than I do. That being said, this bra is so much more comfortable than any of the S cut bras I've tried. So while I don't like the shape quite as much, the comfort level is awesome. I do wish the cups were a teeny bit shorter on the outside, though. My roots are a little short.

Another thing that I'll note is the 4 part construction of the cup, which is different than the 3 part construction of all of my other EM cups. I was expecting this, as they change to a 4 part cup either at a JJ cup or sister sizes of a 70JJ (I forget which it was). Since the bras I have in 3 part cups are all a different cut than this bra (as well as different sizes) I can't really draw too many comparisons between the two.

I do think that I prefer the S cut as of right now, but I would be curious to try a PL cut in a 70JJ before writing it off completely. It also works great as a comfort bra, so I may have to add a few to my collection for that purpose

I bought this bra used, because I've been told that PL in my size range is not that much lower than the S, so I've been really wanting to try it. For whatever reason, my pictures came out awful. I'll post one or two and try to take more later. My breasts were touching before I did my reverse-swoop-and-scoop, so I suspect they will generally touch when I'm wearing it - which is not something I particularly want, but it is good to have a couple of bras to wear under low-cut tops. The wires seem shorter on the outside as well as the inside, which is not particularly a plus for me.

Overall, i'm pleased with the fit, and the gold patterned lace overlay is quite nice looking, if not my usual style. Having just reviewed a BM, I cant help but notice that the lace on this PL seems to be sewed down to the bra body a lot more thoroughly than the BM was.
