First off, the color of this is fab. I have the cobalt/black one from AW15. It's what prompted me to give this baby another shot, and, in person, it does not disappoint.
On to fit! This is a great bra, though it has a few 'but' things to note:
- If you like super tight bands, this will not work for you. I am between 32 and 34 currently (mostly 34 because turning 30 is a bitch on the metabolism), and I can easily fit it on the tightest hook right away. I wear this on the middle hook, and really only notice it riding up towards the very ... end of the day. Otherwise, it being a bit loose is no biggie. When I wear it for any length of time on the tightest hook, the fabric starts to itch and the wires, particularly the gore, which others have noted, press and hurt something fierce. My take-away from this is this is a bra meant to wear more loose than tight.
- I think it's nearly impossible to fill out the cups entirely on both sides. There is slight wrinkling above the seam on both sides, and is particularly noticeable on my smaller side. But a cup size smaller would definitely quad. I will say, though, that there doesn't appear to be any wrinkling under clothes. The cups are smooth and super round.
- If you don't have projection, look elsewhere. This bra was meant for those needing deep cups.
Other things to note:
- Only 2 hook fastening on G cups, but it's literally the only bra I've worn which I don't mind there only being 2 versus 3 hooks. The band is otherwise very thick, and doesn't cut into the chub at all.
- Very narrow wires for a UK brand. Those who like Polish brands would benefit from it.
- Accommodating to FoT tissue, and doesn't cut in at all.
- I WANT THEM ALL!
So long as you're ok with all these things, this bra is a must try.

I want this bra so much. I wish they were more accessible to the states.
