It's so pretty. I wish the straps were made for people with narrow shoulders.

Purchased this bra because the 28E gives me slight quad-boob which is unattractive under some shirts because of the thick padding. A larger size alleviated the quad-boob but introduced other problems. Bratabase doesn't have an option for "cups fit at the top/bottom but are too big at the apex," which is my issue.

Underwires are very pokey in the center.

It is a shame I can't get the size right, it's a very attractive bra.

It seemed to be a bit looser in the band and smaller in the cup than a Freya Deco in the same size. Too closed on top for my (full on top?) breasts; most quad boob I've ever gotten. Very nice looking, seemed to be good quality.

I was pretty apprehensive right before this arrived at my doorstep because the most recent Parfait bra I tried gave me really bad orange-in-a-glass (the bottom of the cups were too shallow for my breast shape).
This did give me a bit of orange-in-a-glass and didn't anchor right under my breasts, but it wasn't as bad as the Honey. No bra I've tried so far gives me perfect anchorage because most of my breast tissue is at the bottom. Surprisingly, I found the tops of the cups pretty tight, so this bra is not a great match for those who are fuller on top. I think this is precisely ... why this bra gets the "too small in the cups" rep; to me this feels like a standard 28F. I got zero gaping with my full on bottom boobs.
I found the wires surprisingly narrow, which is great for my shape. They are comfortable to me, but those who are shallower tend to have more wire pain in this bra from the blog posts I have read. This gives my boobs a projected, slightly pointy profile. However, I find Parfait wires somewhat stretchy because they are made out of plastic, so it's no wonder that this can suit both shallow and projected boobs.
The band wasn't especially tight, it felt like a standard 28. Because I measure 26 snug it rode up slightly. Note that more recent renditions of this bra runs more true to size in the band.
This bra is so beautiful and gives a sophisticated, retro feel. You really have to see it to believe it. I feel incredibly sexy in this bra. I usually don't spend money on matching panties, but for this set I'm tempted to fork over the money.

I am reviewing the Wild Pink colour.

I find that the band is firm for a 28, but not really small enough to fit a "true" 26. It is very supportive and comfortable regardless.

Personally I do not find the cups to run small; however, I do have shallow boobs and this may be the reason why it fits true to size on me. The straps are set to far apart though.

I've tried this bra in red a while back in 30DD and 30E, and I can say that the cup shape is improved for shallow shapes in this size range, but on me it was still a tad pointy and the seams showed through shirts.

The gore is medium tall and medium wide, which was rather uncomfortable as I need very narrow and small gores. It forced my boobs apart (sat on it) rather than the cleavage you see in their stock photos.
