Underwires dig into my armpits quite a bit. The cups are also a little empty on top. I wonder if a smaller band/cup might fit better or if the wings are just too high for me.

Fits fairly well but not comfortable enough. The material is somewhat scratchy on the edges, particularly two corners by the clasps that are exposed when hooked on the loosest hook and they poke into my back. Digs into my tail of spence a bit, less than some bras but enough to be annoying. The gore however is a great height for me and is comfortable. Fits my larger breast well, the smaller one has some emptiness at the top of the cup but it's acceptable. I think this is a good shape/style for me but is just not comfortable enough. The fabric might get softer after washing but I think the tail of spence area would still be an issue.

I bought this bra before I fully understood my shapes needs, but it did help me along my path of bra fit understanding. It is definitely too shallow and wide for me, and I think my boobs aren´t meant for plunges. I definitely have to scoop out, and it splays my boobs more than anything.

I love the look of this bra. It's light, it's embroidered, it sports a funky colour. I am pleasantly surprised that the embroidery and seems don't show too much under thin white t-shirts.
The 4 part cup with side support lifts and shapes, the straps are wide and comfortable. Quality seems very good, no issues with stitching, no loose threads, fabric seems strong yet light.

Love this bra! I had heard Elomi runs large, so I was worried I wouldn't fill the cups. But this bra is as close to perfect for me as I have found so far! The band is big enough to be comfortable, and everything sits where it should. I do think the wires are a bit wide for me, they end way past where my breast tissue ends in my armpit. Doesn't hurt or anything though. My only complaints is the clasp is a little bit scratchy, which irritates my back a bit, and I find it gives me a bit of a weird shape. Hopefully a couple of washes softens it up a bit.

This is a very first review of a bra for me, so it may seem basic to the experienced crowd.
I love the look of this bra, the colour is dark but not black, more of a graphite, and the embroidered little beads are adorable and feminine. The mesh fabric would be great for hot days as it's light and breathable, yet is is very supportive. Overall Elomi Matilda is nicely made and beautifully finished.
The band it wide and solid, it fits comfortably, but cups, in my case, are not filled entirely, with empty spaces at the bottom sides and top, so I am looking forward to trying a smaller size. I can't say if it has enough projection for me as it is too big.

When I first purchased this bra, it fit like a dream. This was my first purchase of this size after getting fitted in a boutique bra shop in the US (I am a US based bra shopper/wearer). It fit wonderfully for a couple years, and in that time I purchased a bunch of this model I'm other colors. Now, while the band fits, though it is stretched enough on all of the bras to go to the second hook, the cup is too small and I am spilling out on top so I have to shop for a new size. If this comes in my new size, I will certainly purchase a couple! It has been very comfortable, good lift, nice shape, no digging in anywhere.

Almost perfect fit... I have this in both 34gg and 34h. The fabric is slightly scratchy but I'm hoping it softens up with age. It's the only bra that will stay in my IMF for more than 15 minutes, so it's definitely a win at this point. The band is stretchy, so I have it on the middle hook instead of the loosest, but I think one size down would be too tight. The wires are slightly wide, so I get some wrinkling on the sides of the cups, but the wires are soft so the issue is easy to overlook. This is the only Elomi I have tried that doesn't have the stretchy elastic on top of the cups that digs into my tissue. I now own 4 of these so there's something to say about that https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

Moderately stiff fabric. Unlined cup, flattering shape, but my dark areolas show through the bra and my white t-shirt.

Welcome to Bratabase! I think you will find BTB a friendly and informative place, I know I do.
The measurement data you provided makes me suspicious of the labelling for your bra. The 14.6 inch depth you measured is closer to a JJ or K so I would suggest you try another 34HH Matilda to confirm your bra's measurements. There are currently 2 other 34HH Matilda's listed here and their cup depth's are significantly smaller and closer to what a HH cup usually is.
