Wonderful bra that fits well and gives a great shape under clothes. It's very comfortable and is perfect for everyday; however, the cups and sides come up quite far, which eliminates this bra as a candidate for summer wear. Also, as a 30 FF who's forced to wear 32DDD bras in American brands, the band could be a bit tighter. I was able to wear it comfortably on the second hook initially. One size down would've been perfect.

Otherwise, great value for a classically beautiful and comfortable bra.

Fit

About me: petite with wide horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts
* average projection
* wide-set ... (3 fingers width of space between breasts)
* very wide roots (extend past the mid-axillary line)
* even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full)
* short root height, average vertical placement
* mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away)
* conical shape (but will squish to round)
* full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FOB due to short roots and soft tissue
* petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
* front (anterior) rib flares

Band:
* length: stays in place with wear
* wings: slightly too short (better than the 32DD)
* no axillary skin spillage

Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine. High, but comfortable.

Cup:
* Gives breasts a wide, projected, conical shape.
* Wires too narrow (better than the 32DD, but still bad).
* Top of cup: smooth line.
* Bottom of cup: wrinkles.
* Outer edge of cup cuts into tail of Spence.

Straps:
* not too far apart
* adjust short enough

Fit Under Clothing:
* Seams visible through thin T-shirt. (Surprisingly smooth for a seamed bra.)
* Visible under v-neck.
* Very visible in armholes of sleeveless shirt.

Assessment and Plan:
* Wires way too narrow, yet somehow breasts look wide. Cuts into tail of Spence.
* Fit nearly identical to the 32DD.
* Try 34D & 34DD.
