Very pretty bra but I'm more of a 28H, sadly. Otherwise this is perfect.

Oh god, what a disaster. I was so excited to try this bra and I am now completely convinced there's no point in even trying it in a 28E or 30DD. Top is too closed for my tall roots, cup is too projected for my FOB shape. You could fit a fist in the empty upper space in this bra. Brutal.

This bra did not fit correctly at all. The straps were okay and the gore lay flat, but the cups puckered by one of the seams at the top. I think my shape isn't compatible with it. It's too projected.

The color scheme is horrendous and the fabric and lace seems cheap.
Big is true to size or slightly large (wearing on middle clasp) and cups are slightly large.Fushia colorway

Sheer polka dot unlined underwire plunge bra with lace detail. Print continues on the back and the nice wide straps. Yes, I like wide straps! This made me happy. The top part of the cup seems to shape a bit more diagonal or flat than I'm used to, but still gives a nice overall curve. There is a little bit of extra room along the top seam but not enough to wrinkle so I don't think going down a cup would work, but I might test it if I see a 36E just to be sure.

I love the colour and design, but the wires are too narrow for me.

ASOS had listed this as a Patsy Padded Halfcup, though the picture did show the plunge balcony instead. I decided to risk it and, as it turns out, it was the plunge. As such, even as it's too small for me, it's way too projected and closed on top. I tried it on long enough to laugh at the hilarity, but that was all.
Mostly, I noticed the fabric on the unlined cup. It was hard, smooth, not stretchy at all. It didn't feel like it would be super comfortable, but it wasn't itchy either. The seams were quite soft, which definitely contrasted with the fabric of the cups themselves. I don't know how comfortable that would be to wear all day.Ink colorway

I had really high hopes for this bra based off of measurements and my knowledge of it.
I've done well with the Freya Siren, Unlined Eden, and Starlet in 30E. I'm unsure how similar they really are, but they DO give a somewhat similar shape.
This bra is just...it gives that not-wearing-a-bra-full-on-bottom&perky look, which, the others do, and I like..but this one, there's something off. It pushes you further outward, unlike the others.
I've been reading reviews, and after realizing the other day that I'm lopsided (semi more FoT and fuller on left, more FoB on right), and that I can't determine my shape the average way because they're weird- I'm ... just going with FoB-even, and shallow on top.
And, this bra shows it.
I also have a lot of muscle that even I confuse with boob.
There appears to be more tissue on top, and thus, FoT, but I have long roots and it's so shallow that I do better with FoB bras.
I can fill out the bottoms of the cups, but the tops are wrinkly and when I look down, I just see two triangles.
Not as bad as not wearing a bra, but just..odd.
Not like the Siren,Eden unlined, or Starlet either. I can fill out those cups in 30E perfectly and they give me that perky, natural, semi pointer shape, while looking much more filled out on bottom from lifting.
This, it seems to have side support or something, which puts your boobs up front and center. In a bad way. I need up front and centered cups with depth, definitely.
I don't like how side support and/or whatever is going on here on the sides to push my tissue MORE forward- makes my boobs look.
I'm already thin boobed and have little width and more depth, so it makes me look like I'm wearing a bullet bra.
I also have tall roots, so this bra just looks silly on me like my Just Peachy Lace Non Padded Balconette. I wanted to love that bra and it had perfect wires, but it just looked funny.
Speaking of wires, the wires on this bra weren't quite as narrow as I had expected. Though I fear, if they were any narrower, I may have more torpedo-esque boobs.
I guess I've learned that while I need depth, I like somewhat heavier material(this is a very very thin mesh-like material), or at least this material cut in a semi different way that flattens my boobs just a bit..or at least doesn't wrinkle.
The band is also decent. It's not like the Cleo Maya I received, or Freya Deco Vibe, but still seems supportive.
I thought of trying to trade this for a 30DD or 28E, but I'm unsure.
Maybe it's just not for me.
If you need projection, but are less full on top, or shalllow all around definitely, this bra is not for you.
If you need narrower wires, a lot of upper or all around projection, it may work for you.
If you do want to try this bra but are shallow on top, maybe try sizing down in the cup. I'm not sure, as I haven't tried that, and I'm not so crazy about this bra that I would desire to keep trying to make it work.
Also, if you're looking for a bra that gives you bullet bra boobs, look no further.
I'm pretty sure I'd like to sell this.
If anyone reads this and you're interested, just inbox me.
It just doesn't seem compatibles with my shape.
Edit:
I just looked at the photos of this bra, in the light, and realized that it wrinkles some at the bottom too. This is probably because I'm not full anywhere really but the center. Oh dear. Not tubey booby friendly.
This will be listed.
