This bra runs big! This is the first time I haven't been able to fill a cup! Great for full on top shapes I think. Insanely soft and comfy fabrics, and the straps are narrower than most full bust bras, which is refreshing! I'd say it runs true to size in the band, and about 1-2 cup sizes large depending on your fullness and projection. I'm going to reorder in a 32G.

For full-busted women with deep breasts and fullness toward the center who want to try a Tutti Rouge style-- this is hands down the best style for you try.
Based on the fit I describe, I'm sure bratabase will say it doesn't fit-- but it's one of the best poorly fitting bras I've tried.
I think this is the most deep-breasted friendly bra Tutti Rouge has on the market, and the fit is surprisingly flattering under clothes-- it gives a great rounded profile, and is comfortable.
It will gap on top, probably, for almost anyone unless you get it a size too small on purpose. The top is a ... folded double mesh layer, with no elastic at all. This means, however, that it's friendly to most breast shapes, in my opinion-- it won't cut in for full on top. I have balanced breast fullness, and I like the feature-- it also means for any cycle related bloating/ extra breast fullness or tenderness, it will work comfortable for that day.
The center gore doesn't fit flat on me, and I'm not sure why as it's a reasonably narrow gore, and I don't normally having tacking issues. It might be because the underwire is pretty wide on the sides, so it's pushing out in the middle... but it's comfortable despite that, I don't feel the need to bend the underwire for a better or more comfortable fit.
Straps are not fully adjustable due to lace on the front, and they do run a bit long for me. I might shorten them eventually, but it's fine for now. The adjustor is heart shaped, not necessarily a style I go for but it's cute and I like it more than I thought I would, in person.
The band runs more true-to-size than Frankie (and other Tutti Rouge bras, from what I've heard). This 32 stretches easily to 31-- I normally wear a 30, and I prefer wearing it on the second tightest or tightest hook already, from the first wear. I think the band might stretch out fairly quickly (it's mesh, but two layers). I'd recommend ordering your normal bra band size. I'd say the cup size runs true-to-size to half a cup size large, due to the openness at the top of the cup.
Oh, there's an ugly plastic pink accent on the bow on the central gore (it reminds me of Barbie doll accessory quality plastic)-- I didn't really notice it in pictures, but in person it really detracted from the quality of the other materials, and made it look cheaper to me. It's only held on by a few stitches, so I removed it. It looks a lot better to my eyes now, less juvenile (I'll post a picture by the review). The accents, otherwise are very cute.
And seriously, this bra is so comfortable.
This review is for the first season, mint green color.

At the beginning i ordered these in wrong size. Now i have the right one and these look so pretty on me. Cups gave me really lovely round shape. Center gore is quite high, but it's not problem for me. Band is tight enough, but it stretches quite much. These feel really comfortable when i'm wearing these. I really want these on mint too.

Oooh I love it!!
It's gorgeous. I love the mint, it's my idea of 'sweet' (pink makes me agressive...)
The 28E fits like a charm, but normally I'm somewhere between a 28E and F. (I have fairly wide, shallow, full-on-bottom boobs)
The band is really comfy on my skinny 26in ribcage. It seems to be a true 28 band, am wearing it on the loosest hook like all other 28 bands. (I wear my bands as lose as possible without them travelling) The cups are wide, but not oddly so. I have perhaps half a cm of space left in the cup, but I think it encloses more of the ... 'underarm fat' than other bras because it's a smooth fit everywhere.
I'm 5'10 tall, so I have no problem with the long straps, but I'm already adjusting them to their tightest on the right. I can imagine this might be a problem for someone who normally shops at the 'petite' department. (But then again, height isn't the ONLY determinant of where the bra sits, and they should be easy to alter)
After a day's wearing it's stil comfy and exactly where I put it this morning.
The bra is definitely a win.
The briefs are a size S, and they're made for someone who wears bigger jeans than I do, sadly. I don't know why Tutti Rouge sells 28 bands but no XS panties! They somehow stay put though.

This bra is more suited to someone who is full on top. I had a lot of gaping in the lace section on the top. The bra seems to be less shallow than some of Tutti Rouge's other offerings.

If you're normally a 30E, this will probably fit.
Fit is rather wide and shallow, great if you have boobs like that!
