Received from the most wonderful fellow member katje. Alas, it doesn't fit. The Fuave half-cups are larger in the band and smaller in the cup than other styles as well as in comparison to other Eveden brands like Panache, Cleo, Fantasie, etc.
This one's fit is consistent with the Aurelia half-cup I have in 36F. I had hoped that sizing down in the band and up in the cup would work, but no. Assuming it's marked correctly, I would need a 32HH/30J, which means I'm sized out https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Having said that, I should confess that I insist on a much tighter ... than most women like because I'm fluffy and I simply can't tolerate movement of my bands.
The quality, however, is Fauve all the way - 1st class materials and detailing. Straps are fully adjustable and set fairly wide (typical balconette). Wings are somewhat lower in the half-cup styles than in their full-coverage ones - which is preferable to me since I'm short.
Cups are 3-part vertical-seamed construction with lace detailing. Bow & sparkly dangle at gore, bows at cup/strap junction, lace applique along top of cups over the mesh overlay on a base of bordeaux satin. Ribbon corset detailing over more lace on the wings. It's no wonder these things are so expensive.
It is very pretty (better in person than in pictures).
