So sad to see this one go! The color is so so pretty, the bra is so sexy, the pictures don't do it justice. (Definitely check out the commercial pictures of this bra.) I wore and hand-washed this bra a few times, but eventually wrapped my head around the idea that it just doesn't fit. (I've been holding on to it for over a year now, as if my ribs might shrink... yeah right.) You can tell where the underwires rubbed up against my sternum and sides, and the rings on the straps have a little wear (I only just noticed examining the bra for this listing) but other than that the bra is in great condition. Band is tight, cups are wide, maybe more of a 28FF?

Open to exchanging for something in a 28E/30DD/30E, preferably narrow, projected.

Owner's review

This bra, I want so much for it to fit. The color and quality is beautiful, but the fit just isn't right. It runs a little tight for a 30, I'd say, but the real issue is with the cups: Perhaps part of the issue is also the tightness (causing the band to pull on the wire) but even with an extension the cups are too wide and I can't get the wire to sit flat against my chest. The overall volume of the cup is pretty close (no gaping or anything) except that I don't fill out the very sides of the cup. And because of all of this, the bra really doesn't do much for my shape: kind of a minimizing effect. So, probably, a 32E would fit me better, but unfortunately there's no way for me to try that out... It's a shame, because it seems to otherwise be a supportive bra.
