Interesting clear plastic center gore. Mesh material is soft and comfortable. Band was too large for my 28 inch ribcage and cups were a size too small. Seemed better for shallower breasts.
I just got properly measured and fitted at Nordstrom and discovered I am 29" under bust, not 27.5" as I thought. I tried on several bras in my new size, 30DDD, and it was a revelation. This bra is a dream. The cups encase my breasts perfectly, the straps are close enough together, and the band is secure but not tight. Creates a supported, smooth look under clothing. Very pretty too!
I really wanted to keep this one!! The lacey upper sling things are really nice, comfortably forming a tapered edge between the bra and the boobs. But unfortunately, on me the 32DDD was just slightly too small and made my larger left boob bulge out. And double-unfortunately, this bra doesn't come any bigger than a DDD in 32, or in a 30 or smaller band. :C
Has very feminine lacing over purple cups. Has a little bit of a retro feel and makes my boobies look beautifully round and is also extremely comfortable.
Such a cute bra, but Natori in general is just not cut for the shape of my breasts. The wires are SO wide, and the cups just don't have enough depth either on top or at the bottom. I'm FOB, so I hardly ever quadboob, but I manage it in this bra if I'm not careful. Would be a great bra for somebody who is wide and shallow.
Not gonna like, though...sometimes I still wear it. It's pretty comfy even with all the fit issues, it still makes the girls look good, and the juicy color is amazing! Not super impressed with the quality of the lace, though. It got a big run along the side after only one or two wearings.
The band is ok, but the cups seem to run smaller than my other Natori bra. I ended up going up a cup size.
I'm just ok with this bra. It's soft and very comfortable, but the cups and straps are very wide. The cups don't bother me too much, but the straps cut into my shoulder if I move my arms forward.
The underwire on this bra is shaped really weird and digs in the front and side. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
The band of the Natori is extremely stretchy. The material is very very soft, and the cups are quite forgiving. I think this cup size is too small for me, but since the material is so forgiving, it works. The bra is very comfortable and looks good under any top.
I normally would not buy a 32 band, but it was on sale for $9.97 at the clear the rack sale. The band runs almost a full size small, which is nice. The cups are very light and the lace overlay is slightly stretchy. I am going to alter the band smaller so it fits more like a 28E, but I really like this bra already. It is so comfortable! Gives a nice shape under shirts too. I wonder if this fits like the Natori Feathers Contour Plunge (730023)
Band: I've seen this bra band being described as fairly stretchy, but mine is most definitely not. Super stretchy bands I can wear a 28 in (my ribcage is 29), but this one is a fairly firm. When measuring the stretched band, I barely made it to the 30" mark, and that was pushing it. I got a bra extender for this and hope that in the long run I will actually get more use out of it since it isn't so crazy stretchy.
Cups: I have shallow breasts and this cup fits them great. I did have to go up a cup size (usually a 30D) to get rid of some minor quad boob. The boutique I bought this bra from said it was common for her customers to go up a cup size on this one.
Appearance: I have the black version for a wardrobe staple. The lace isn't readily apparent under snug shirts.
Overall, I am very happy with this bra and would recommend it for other shallow breasted gals.
This is a fairly comfortable bra. I don't seem to fill out the bra entirely along the bottom of the cup but when I tried on the next cup size down it cut into the top of my breast. This bra is very full-coveraged, I can't wear it with anything low-cut. This bra does separate the breasts (maybe a bit too much, I feel like it does get in the way of my arms).
I purchased this bra off eBay when I realized my new, er i mean correct, basic size but before I realized how many different things there are to take into consideration!
Here are the things that I now know are wrong with this bra for me.
I do not fill the top out. Underwire is slightly too wide for my root. Gore does not tack. Straps are too far apart and do not stay up on my narrow shoulders. Will be reselling this eventually.
Lace is soft, very pretty and very comfy. Only problem is sometimes straps chafe my armpits because they are set a little wide for my narrow shoulders. Very smooth under clothes.
This bra fits okay -- but I kept feeling like I needed to pull the decorative lace at the top of the cup up over my boob more. It covered well though and gave nice plunge separation.
This bra is just beautiful. It's also very, very soft, and comfortable even though it's so pretty. The cups are made of radiant orange polyester lining covered in bright fuchsia (nylon) lace. This bra fits "like a glove", but in this case that's not all that exciting. While this does indeed fit according to the basic bra fit checklist, these cups give me absolutely 0 uplift, and I think they actually flatten me out. (The cups are shaped just like the Ongossamer Mesh Contour bra's cups.) It's not that they're allowing "escape" from the sides, as much as they simply don't pick up the bottoms of ...my boobs to form a rounded, uplifted look for my décolletage. I wouldn't mind a more narrow center gore, either, because my rib-cage is so small. I used to think that center pull straps were the secret to "uplift" but I've learned that, for me, wider straps, no matter how frustrating they can be fit-wise, really do help keep breasts front and center. Full band bras really fit best, so I think I've finally learned that floating cups just don't give me a good look. I've been spoiled by Panache and Cleo! Read more 94 more words
I bought this as new without store tags on ebay. It seems very stiff, has a strong perfumy smell, and the tags sewn into the bra are illegible. I'm afraid it's more used than the seller stated. This isn't a good bra for me. I quad a little and my boobs look like piles of mush in the bottom of the cups. :/
This bra is made of smooth, luxurious fabric. It is extremely comfortable. The cups curve in at the top and give me a small amount of quadboob. I've switched from the loosest hooks to the middle hooks in a matter weeks, although I believe that has more to do with changes in my body than changes in the bra. This review was written after five weeks of regular (but not daily) wear with careful handwashing and air drying of the bra on a regular basis.
