I was truly disappointed that this bra did not come close to fitting as I hoped. I am having trouble finding bras in G+ cups that works for my breast type which are full on top, close set and narrow roots. Before buying this bra; I searched Bratabase to find the reported measured cup sizes in this style, which would match my best fitting Cleo bras. This bra was supposed to be a close match and if needed I would make slight adjustments.
The Rouge label and packaging had a AA designation before the Style/Model number which leads me to believe this may have been an earlier ... model/style compared to the AW designations of bras made after 2012. Initially the band felt snug on the center hooks, but was easily stretched by the second fitting to the last set of hooks. The one inch center gore was way too big for my close set breast. The cut and shape of the bra should've given me support, but the gore was two and half inches away from my sternum. This lack of tacking and spacing left my breast feeling unsupported and my shoulders slouching. The height and width of the cups made filling the cup uncomfortable due to my narrow root breast. The wires ran under my armpits and caused the side supports to pinch and bind. The binding pulled my shoulder straps off too. Overall, there was too much wrong with this bra to justify slight adjustment to make it work and I will be sending this bra back.
