    Didn't fit

    I was sceptical at first when I saw it right out of the box since I had never had a non-padded(lined) bra before. However, the material and the quality of the bra is outstanding, so much better than something you'd buy in the high street! Nice wide straps that don't dig in and they're really plain, no fuss, I really like that. The straps are fully adjustable and great for a shorty like me(I'm 5 feet tall/152 cm tall, this bra is suitable for short, average and tall women)

    It's definitely an everyday bra, no lumps and bumps, just a smooth finish and it doesn't show through at all ... in the nude colorway. The only detailing on this bra is the little(and very subtle) bow in between the cups. The fabric is thin but sturdy and strong, not something you'll have to be careful with in case you have long nails. Strong quality. If you wanna avoid nipple show to all costs, don't buy this bra. If you get cold enough it will show through, even in the summer(which was when I bought it). Now this doesn't mean it shows at all times, definitely not. Most of the time it doesn't, because most of the time your nipples aren't hard.

    First impression when I got it on: ''It's too narrow in the cups for me''
    And yes, it really is. Too narrow shape for me, U-shape, but not totally like the letter of course haha, but it's way too narrow for me, it gets really uncomfortable after a while. I think I have slightly wide set boobs because I get red marks on the sides of my breast tissue after wearing it. I think this bra would suit a girl who doesn't encounter this problem frequently. I think it's down to my own shape. I could fasten it on the loosest hook at first when I got in early July, now I fasten it snugly on the middle hook. So the band is really good, doesn't stretch out too quickly.

    To give you an idea of how wide my boobs are(to make it easier for you to decide if it'll be comfortable for you), the breast tissue on the sides start.... Hmm... How should I explain this?
    Maybe 2-3 cm ''in front of'' my armpits. I could've needed cups with more space in between but it wasn't super uncomfortable in that aspect, I can fit 3 fingers between my boobs without a bra, in this... Not so much, I'm way too pulled in to the front in this bra. I recommend this bra if you think you have the shape for it! Absolutely flawless product in terms of quality and the price is cheap!

      It looks as if the band is a few sizes too small. That's most likely why you're having a problem with the cups being too narrow/close together. You shouldn't have any spillage on the top or below the back band, it is obvious to see there is quite a bit under your left arm, and also underneath the cups.

    • The left arm issue, yeah, you're right. The cups are too small for me, not the band. Thank you for giving me your point of view but I know that's not the case. The band is absolutely not too tight =) The overspill is due to the cups being too small, not the band. I can fasten the band comfortably on the middle hooks =)

    • I meant underneath your left arm going towards your back. This is something that happens in either too small a band, wearing the bra too high, or both. The cups look like they fit, I don't see any breast spillage. But if you say it doesn't fit right, then that's all that matters.

      I'm curious as to what your ribcage measures, though. That and the stretched band info is missing for this bra.
