So wonky in the cups for me. They are way too deep in the apex and I can't fill it at all so it goes to its default placement--all bunched all up in that area in the most hideous way, lol. You'd have to have significant enough apex projection to push into these cups, to force them into a taut smooth placement.
And they cut into my roots at the top, so it's not a mix for full on top boobs. The wires are weirdly shaped (I mean I have never seen this shape yet) where they are narrow at the bottom, like a U! Sooo all in all I'd have to totally replace the cups with those of a bra that fits before wearing this out. Gluh!
Me: tall roots reaching collarbone, very close-set (touching), average to narrow width, shallow, splayed east-west, FOT or even (unsure), centre-full horizontally (for this reason I don't usually wear plunges), high set, short torso, broad shoulders, size asymmetry. Measurements: 26" snug UB and 34" leaning bust.
Thanks for this review! I like the print on this top and I was wondering about the fit. Looks like a very similar wire and cup construction to the 30F - Midnight Grace ยป Jasmine Underwired Twist Bandeau Bikini top I got from Figleaves. Very tall U wires going on there, too.
Yeah the jasmine cups look very similar to these, did they work for you?
yogurt almost, but not quite. I think they might have been okay if the U wasn't quite as tall, but it was the gore and lack of straps that were a problem for me even more than that.
I have even breasts, tallish roots, average-to-wide roots.

This one is kinda tight, it might be a bit small in the cup too? But I haven't actually worn it swimming yet so I can't confirm how it fits once it's been saturated with water.
The underwires are kind of uncomfortable... I'm honestly considering removing them.
There is also a seamed inner cup, but with how tight this is on me, the seams easily show through the outer swimsuit material layer, and you can see the weird bunching as well. The swimsuit material seems like there's a lot less material/depth when compared to the inner cup lining. It makes me wonder if ...there was no grading of the outer material and only for the inner cup on multiple cup sizes.
I would be interested to try this in a 30E.
I would NOT pay full price for this. I am keeping this bra, but I literally got it for 93% off retail price... $2.66 USD for the top, and $3.00 USD (86% off) for the matching briefs. Just seems cheaply made to me. The only other swimwear I have tried is multiple Cleo Swim models, and I think the quality of this is so vastly inferior. Read more 92 more words
