Such a pretty bra! This is my 2nd attempt to see if I could find a size to fit me. 32H way to big at the top of the cup. 32GG (this one) still a tiny bit to big only at the very top of the cup, not a great enough fit to keep. I do think that the 32G would be too small. Also, very wide straps not sure how comfy it would be after a long day. Just thinking this one is not a good shape for me! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

My first 28G bra. I've had this in 28F before and that one was a bit too small in the cups, and the center gore didn't lie flat.

But this one, it fits perfectly! My breasts tissue are all enclosed in the cups, the center gore lies flat against the sternum, the band is firm, I feel supported in it, I have Marie Antoinette cleavage, there's no gaping on top nor below the cups, etc. The straps, although they are halfway adjustable, but they still adjust long enough for me. All in all, I love it!

This bra is so pretty that I wear it in spite of the fact that it is a hair too large in the band and a full size+ too small in the cup; I could probably do with a 34GG/H. It is lined, not padded, and constructed of lovely satin with smooth stitching that doesn't show under most clothing.

This is a nice looking orange-red bra with lace on cups and satin lining on top.

Tha band is quite true to size, 28 is okay for me although I wouldn´t mind it being even tighter. I can fasten it to the middle hooks right away. The wires are wide enough for me, maybe even too wide. I fill the cups okay at the bottom, but there is gapping on top of cups. When I swoop and scoop at first it seemed like I filled the cups completely, but after some movement it is obvious that the cups are gapping, they are a little too big.

The straps are partly satin which doesn´t stretch. They are quite far apart and I´m afraid they would fall off if I wore this bra long enough. I´m not going to, since I´ll return this.

Very "old-school" style. It has almost a corset appearance and is cut very straight across. I like the way it looks!

Love this bra. Got it cheap on ebay in the colour ice blue (Bravissimo exclusive). It's great for my full on top boobs. Gives great cleavage.

The band is a little tight at first. However after breaking it in, it is comfortable now. Under very tight shirt, the lace shows. But so far I've had no problems with it being bumpy under my clothes. Would like to try 28FF next time though.

This bra is pretty much amazing for my shape! I traded a tempt me for it, and I wasn't sure if if would even fit, let alone look this great. Now it's one of my favorites.

Pros:
-Great for shallow, medium root, close-together breasts
-I get great cleavage
-The fabric is so soft, very comfy
-The design is beautiful in a simple way

Things to consider:
-Shows through stretchy tops a bit (the top part with the lace)
-Runs a little bit small (if you're in between sizes, go with the bigger one, otherwise it might not be an issue)
-The top part can get itchy if the lace rolls underneath
-The band might run a little big? I can't confirm this because I got mine used, and theoretically I should use a 28 band, even though I usually don't.

I am a fan of this brand so I was hoping it would work for me. The band was too tight. I couldn't fasten it and I measure 28 underbust. I guess it would work for someone with a smaller ribcage. Even with an extender it did not fit. The cups seem too deep for my breasts and they pucker at the very tip. I think this would work for someone with fuller, rounder breasts rather than shallow breasts.

Overall it is a pretty bra. Mine is deep red with black lace and polka dots.The straps adjust half way and there are 2 columns of hooks. It has vertical seems for an uplifted look.

This is the most lovely bra! The material is sooo soft and silky, and the lace is simply beautiful. I really bought it based on how it looks, but it also fits like a dream! The color is a pale purple, very delicate, with cream lace. I am seriously in love with this bra!

This is the first masquerade/panache bra I've ever had that fit me so beautifully. The band is a bit stretchier than I'd like, but I measure below 28" underbust, so there's not much I can do outside of alterations.

I bought this second hand on a whim, because it was pretty! Totally not the right size for me, though.

It's a very beautiful bra, and it seems very well constructed. My only huge issue that may be a deal breaker if it was the right size is that the straps are way too thin, and the band is too thin as well. It just doesn't feel like it would be very supportive.

This is such a pretty bra that I just had to get it in 28FF, because in 30E the cups are tiny bit too small and the band was too big.

At first I thought I finally found a bra that has cups the right size, but no... The line is smooth up there, but after a while I found out that there is wrinkling at the bottom of cups. I think I have this "orange in a glass" effect there. It doesn´t help if I try to adjust the bra more "up" on my chest. The wrinkling is way worse on the left side, and my left boob ... is bigger than the right one! So it seems that the cups are too shallow for me at the bottom.
Another problem as well, the straps are too wide apart for me.

Other than that it´s okay, band is just right and the bra feels quite comfortable on. The wires are wide enough, too. Too bad the fit is just not good for me.

In 30E I didn´t notice the wrinkling of the left cup at all. Now that I rechecked, there is some, but very little. The issue in 30E (besides the band) is that there is quadboobing.

Love this bra, when I looked at it I thought it was going to be too big, but it fits like a glove.

Updated on Dec 17, 2012 Flag this

My first fitting bra! Yay! The band is tight, but I don't think too tight. I just need to get used to it. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />

This style is just not going to work for me. I also tried the 28G and this fits quite similar, maybe worse. I get a fold in the bottom of the cup and space at the top all while the center gore won't lay flat and the outside wire lays on breast tissue because it's too small...the shape is all wrong. Too bad...it's gorgeous! I would say it runs true to size but the band has very little stretch.

I love this bra..

It gives me a fantastic shape under my clothes without being too much. I don't get the glorious milk maid cleavage many reviewers seem to get with this, and the cups DO happen to be a touch too big. there's maybe a 1-2mm space between my breast and the top of the cup, but that's gone when I assume perfect spine posture. There's a bit of space near the gore, and am slightly quad boobing near my armpits. I have shallow breasts and wide shoulders, so balconettes don't really work for me.

I did order this in a 30 when I measure 27inches under my breasts though, and am wearing it on the tightest hook.

I have bought this in a 28D and I am waiting for it to come in. I suspect when my period boobs settle that the 28D will fit much better.

This bra is comfy but fits so strangely..

It gives me a really pointy shape. Unfortunately, while it's gorgeous, the detailing at the top of the cup doesn't quite work for me. It doesn't lie flat against my breast tissue even though the cup does (if that makes sense..).

it's also flat on the side of my breasts which is actually great, but combined with pointy middle bit really doesn't work.

Band runs true and tight, not very stretchy at all. I also LOVE the straps. They're the main reason I tried this.

Updated on Dec 01, 2012 Flag this

It's a nice gray, with almost purple tones. Black lace along the gore and the front of the cups, with a not ostentatious blingy thing in the center. Subtle animal print (leopard?). The straps in the front of the bra are of the same material as the cups and so do not adjust fully. The straps in the back are the same grayish color. When let out completely, the straps measure just slightly over 17 inches. At their shortest, just over 13 inches. They're a little bit wide-set and I do have to pull them up over my shoulders fairly often.

This bra fits me pretty well. When I ... first got it I wasn't too sure about it, as the cups and my boobs didn't quite seem to work right together. On the loosest hook, my breasts did not fill out the cup properly - there was empty space in the cup, and the pointy part of the bra and my nipple did not line up.

When I started wearing it on the second hook, this seemed to fix the cup problem.

I like the look this gives me. It's a little bit pointy but not outrageously so. It also gives a nice projection. There's no poking from the underwires in any place and the front rests comfortably flat (or would, if I didn't have a little dip in my ribcage).

That said, I took a good look in the mirror before writing this review and realized that the band is probably too big. I wear it on the second hook, but tried it out on the third, and that ended up feeling more secure. The band still rises up in the back even on the tightest hook. In the long run I should probably end up altering this bra to be tighter, but I have a feeling that the cups will be too small if I do that. I'll keep it as is for now.

Very pretty bra. The lace will show under thin shirts.
The back is very snug (for me that's a good thing)- it runs small, and is firm (very little stretch). The design of the bra makes it feel like the back is riding up even when it's not.

Cups are lightly lined, so there's no nipple show through. It pushes my breasts straight up, and gives a very rounded shape. It doesn't make my chest look larger than it is.

It was a little uncomfortable on the first few wears- I think I needed to break the underwires in. Since then, it's been pretty comfortable.

The Georgiana is a classic for breasts with a broad root and little projection. These bras also fit me very well, so I had to jump at the chance to get this (sadly discontinued) style.
The bra is beautiful. I have it in the burnt orange colorway and it's just amazingly pretty, as Masquerade bras often are.

It gives me a lot of cleavage, unfortunately, the wires are too narrow for me, which is very noticeable after a bit of wearing. For now I love it too much to give it away though...
Other than that, it's very comfortable, the straps are perfect and the band is really good, too.

This bra fits okay, but it's not perfect. The band is too big for me and rides up a bit, but I can't go any smaller as it's already a 28.The cups are also too far apart for my boobs since they are wide set and bottom heavy. The cup goes too high at the top and gives me a very slight gaping, but I think a size smaller would be have been too small for me. It even seems too small sometimes and cuts in. Overall, it's not horrible but I just don't think it's the right shape for me.
