This bra is not a good shape for me, and I'm 100% certain it's a bad size as well. This is no fault of the bra, of course, but I knew it didn't fit from the get-go and I kept it anyway. The band is way too tight, and I realized just now that it's because stretched-out it measures 29". I'm exactly 29" around, and a 30" band is often my best bet. It's interesting reading about this bra stretching out, because I haven't experienced that at all (yet).

It's very pretty and feminine - I have one that is just peach or pink. I think the split strap ... and the bow are pretty, but I like to be girly like that (under my clothes). The straps, however, are way too far apart for me.

I don't like the shape the bra gives me at all. At first I thought it was interesting, and I liked how it seemed to fit my wide-set breasts perfectly in a way that other bras haven't so far. But I quickly got over that. Maybe it's indeed because of my wide set, but I prefer to be pushed up and together... not down and out. This bra makes my chest look very wide and yet also quite flat because it squished me quite a bit and gave me a monstrous quad boob on my left side (the larger side).

The worst part for me is that even though I have quad boob and am more or less pinned down by this bra, I don't fill out the bottom half of the cups at all. The fabric wrinkles and forms a pretty significant crease that ends up making me look like I have square boobs. I have tried to hike up the straps, but inevitably it settles back down. And anyway, if I adjust the straps the necessary amount, I get even more quad-boob and then the bra is basically in my armpits. Beautiful.

I'm posting this one for fitting help, because clearly I've got the size wrong ... but I also am inclined to think that maybe this bra doesn't work for my shape.

I tried on 10 different bras yesterday from a 30D to a 30F in lots of different brands and this was the only one that fit really well. It is probably the best fitting bra I have purchased in a year! I'm not yet sure if it will be comfortable for long periods of time, but it was comfortable when I tried it on at the store. The only thing I have any concerns about is that it might be a little looser in the band than I would like.

This bra works quite well with my relatively wide-set breasts, though it keeps them to the sides when I prefer a more front-and-center type of look. It does make them look nice and round, though, and the open top is much appreciated since I am more full on top. The band is also stretchy and not snug enough on my 27" ribcage, but the worst part is the rubbing where the cup meets the straps. It definitely takes me a while to get used to it. I didn't end up keeping this bra.

The band is fairly true to size -the 30 stretches to 31". 30s are a little loose on me, but unfortunately Betsey Johnson doesn't 28 bands, which would be ideal. I got the bra in black, so it might be a little less stretchy than the lighter colors.
To whom it may concern, the bows are easily removable. I don't personally like pink, so the bows were my only reservation with buying the bra.

My first bra that fits really well! The gore fit flat for me and it looks really nice on. The band on the bottom gets a little itchy after time but not enough to bother me. When I wear tight shirts I can't see this bra under them at all.
