The shape of the underwires is so perfect for me. The gore is just right. The only thing is that the actual wires are very thick and stiff. So if your looking for a bra with super thick and stiff underwires, this is the bra for you. The cups measure larger than my breast size, but for some reason they feel like they fit great? I think I might have some wrinkling on the sides of my breast toward my armpits, so maybe that's where the extra fabric is going? It just makes it look like part of the design of the bra so it doesn't bother me. I wish I could try this bra in a 30D, but they don't make that size.
Considering I'm usually around 30FF-G this didn't fit too badly, so I'd say it runs slightly large in the cups. I feel like my roots may be too tall for the quite-projected/rounded cup, but it looked alright.
I'd gone into TK Maxx for some other things and found this and thought I'd try my luck. If I could have been bothered to take in the band it might have been alright.
It's not really giving me any cleavage though, and my requirements are that if a bra doesn't fit perfectly - it should at least look good.
The quality wasn't that great, but it wasn't that bad either. The cups were ...quite stiff but the overall look worked a lot better than some other strappy bras I've tried.
As for the digging in look - I'm fine. It's not too small. In fact the band was actually too big.
(I have a very squishy ribcage for my size. Although I may need small band sizes, I am technically obese. Being pear shaped this is mainly due to my bottom half. I just have a small bone structure and would be around a 26 band at my "optimum weight" so bear this in mind, as a lot of the bras I wear LOOK painful or too small, but I can pinch about 2 inches of ribcage fat, so that's enough cushion for me to wear tight bands. When I was around a UK 10 / US 6 on top with hardly any ribcage fat, I was still wearing size UK 14 / US 10 jeans.) Read more 151 more words
The cups in this bra have a strange shape, almost square-ish, as two other reviewers also noted. And while I seem to have FOT breasts and tend to have problems with full cup bras, it seems I don't quite fill this bra in the cups where they meet the gore, giving a very odd little gap/pucker. The rest of the cup seems to fit okay, and the band is on the firm side, which I like. Overall, I would not recommend this for FOT or evenly full (FOT & FOB) breasts. It is rather pretty though, especially the coral color.
Really great although not quite the two cup sizes it said. I still love this bra. It has a great feel and the material is gorgeous. The padding is very comfortable and you don't notice you're wearing it. The racerback clip is very useful as I have small shoulders I often find straps slip down easily, but this stops the annoying problem.
First thoughts: I feel like the cup has a bit of a funny shape to it. It feels... almost square shaped at first. After having worn it for a bit, I don't notice it in my shape. But that was my first impression. There's a little bit of excess material on the bottom of the cup, but it's not folding over on me (yet at least. That may change, as this is my first day wearing the bra). I have a shape around 2/5 FOB. I find I have this problem with a lot of bras.
The band is quite firm. It's almost a little too tight but ...I prefer my band on the tighter side so it's not a big deal for me. But I would advise a girl in the same size is me who is uncomfortable in a tight band to definitely go for a 32 band. The straps barely adjust long enough. I have them as long as they will go. It's comfortable, but a little tight.
Second opinion: After a couple of days of wearing it. This bra doesn't fit nearly as well as I had thought. Oh my. I usually love being in my bra. I'm perfectly comfortable without taking it off. But this one. It's tight. The band has very little give. I wore it out to the movies, and I couldn't wait to get home and get it off. It was digging into my ribs. I seriously considered unhooking it right there in the theatre. The straps are not very long. Upon further wear I realized that the metal piece attaching the straps to the cups (shaped like two side-by-side horizontal rectangles) had turned 90 degrees because it was pulling so much. The straps were definitely too short! There is also some gaping in the cup on either side of the gore. Just a little. The wires are too wide for me.
The bra is definitely pretty. It's more on the full coverage side. Similar to the Deco in that regard. Also a good cleavage bra. I love the colours. Read more 240 more words
While the design of this bra is very pretty, it's definitely not shaped very well for me. The cups aren't quite filled out at the top and middle. The underwire sits a bit below my inframammary fold, as well. It'd work better for someone who is fuller in the middle, I think.
Moulded cup, cup is thicker (around 5mm of thickness) than I expected.
Pretty bra, I especially like the diamante details at the strap... but sizing is so off!! Band is short and firm, good for those who usually wears 26 bands. Cup doesn't have enough projection, though I'm not sure whether it's mean for shallow breast.
Judging from the fits on me, it fits more like a 26E bra.
I bought it off of Ebay and was really loving the look of it. Unfortunately it is too small in the cups, and the band [while true to size ] is too large. Recently measured myself and found out I should be wearing a 36H-I and sadly I only got to wear it once as it was too uncomfortable.
I loved the strap design, towards the cup the strap filtered into three mini straps, I also liked the black lace detailing on the top of cups. the cup size in this bra is perfect for me however the back is too large, this is my fault however as I bought the back too large. its a very comfortable bra and I can even sleep in it.
This bra does not fit at all. It's too loose in the band, I wear it on the tightest hook and still feel it ought to be tighter.
It's a deep plunge and has no center gore, the cups are just connected where the wire ends. The cups seem really shallow. I don't fill the bottom but have spilling towards the center. There's gaping at the top. The wires also seem too wide.
I don't know how a plunge actually should fit on me, so I'm not sure what is wrong with this one. The cups are already almost in my armpits, so if the cups were bigger it ...would be very uncomfortable. They would probably have to be deeper to avoid the spillage at the front. I don't know if the (non-existing) center gore/cup connection should lie flat, it almost does. I think I must conclude that this is just the wrong shape for me.
I like the look of it though. Apple green, padding with a lace overlay. the cups are lined with cotton which makes it feel really soft. The straps are ordinary elastic and adjusts all the way. I'm glad I only paid £5. Read more 88 more words
This bra is fantastic. Beyond doubt the best fitting bra I EVER owned. It is really beautiful too. A sixties inspired look in baby pink with black trimmings. The uplift is great but not in the face . It pushes the boobs forward so there's no east-west look but still keeps them close to the ribcage thus giving a slightly minimized appearence. The cups are lightly padding, perhaps a little stiff but I would think that would change with wear and wash. They are not uncomfortable at all. The cups hold in my very soft boobs so there is no spilling a the center and no quadboob either ...since the cups shape seems to be more like mix between balconny and halfcup/plunge.
The band is snug and fits perfect on the loosest hook, and the straps fits tightened half way. The only downside concerning the straps is that the connector is just below my shoulder bone on the front, so if I ever need to tighten the straps all the way it will be visible from the front if the straps shows. I don't think it will come to that though. Read more 82 more words
This bra looks very sexy, but the band is sooo stretchy as you can see. I wore it years ago and I found it comfortable, sadly it went too small in the cups. Straps are not full adjustable.
