This is a very pretty bra and I love the lace detailing on it. I have wide-set, shallow breasts and this bra seems to work with them, although it would be an even better fit if I was slightly more projected. The lace is very stretchy and comfortable while still looking very delicate and pretty.

The only weird thing about this bra for me is that it gives me a case of pointy boobs. The mesh side panel really brings my boobs front and center, and for some strange reason make them look pointier than I'm used to. I'm not sure I love the shape it gives me, but I'm going to try it and see how I like it.

I purchased this bra new on eBay after hearing that Mimi Holliday bras are great for shallow, wide-set chests. I have to say that I not only agree, but this is probably one of the best fitting bras that I own.

This bra is super soft and the lace cups are stretchy and accommodating. The cups are probably a little small for me, but the lace is a little stretchy and I get no quadboobing or anything. I also love how classic and feminine this bra is and I'm elated to have this bra in my collection. I will be purchasing more bras from this brand in the ... future (on sale of course, because I don't have $100 to spend on one bra!). If I had the funds I would probably buy them full price because they are very well made.

It's important to note that this is a pre-SS13 Mimi Holliday. Since then, their sizing has changed, so if this bra was in their current range, it would be marked as a 28C because they have made the cups larger since SS13. Just something I thought I would mention in case you are in the market for a more recently made Mimi Holliday.

This is an excellent sports bra. The wires are nice and wide and the band is VERY firm, I can barely hook it (which I think is good in a sports bra).

My fit issue is that I do have wrinkling at the tops of the cups, but my boobs don't move much at all when I jump or shake so I can overlook that issue. I think it's more of a shape thing since I'm quite shallow. The top of the bra on my chest is also very tight, it would be nice if were even just a little bit more stretchy. Otherwise this bra should work well for me. I would consider getting this bra in a 28C, but that size is not produced, so this will do.

I bought this bra on eBay after reading reviews saying that it was ideal for wide and shallow chests, and I have to agree! This bra fits true to size for me and is quite tight. My only fit issue is that I have some slight gaping on the inner part of the cups near the gore because my breasts are a little more wide-set, but other than that it is a perfect fit for me.

Like many other reviews, I can't get over how soft this bra is! All of the materials are soft to the touch and this bra is extremely comfortable. It also looks quite different from the other bras I own and I would own this bra in every color if my size wasn't so hard to find. The cups are wide and shallow, which I need.

The only problems I have with this bra is that straps are a touch far apart, although I have no problems with straps slipping or being pokey. This bra gives a pretty pointy, vintage corset-like shape which can look odd under clothing. I don't quite fill out the apex of the cup because the pointy shape isn't the same shape as me, but otherwise the bra fits well and I would absolutely buy it again.

This bra is fantastic for my shallow, wide rooted chest. The underwire sits wide under my armpit which captures all of the tissue and I fill out the whole cup. The gore tacks to my sternum properly and the straps aren't too tight or loose.

I would have preferred to get this bra in a 28D but sadly this bra is not made in that band size. I am concerned about the stretchiness of the band over time but I'm hoping that with good care the band will hold up. The band could be tighter, but it stays put and doesn't ride up my back throughout the day.

Overall this bra is very comfortable for me to wear and it will work well for an everyday t-shirt bra. It's not a 100% perfect bra for me, but since this is my first foray into properly fitting bras, this bra is serving as a great starting point for me.

This is a very pretty bra and I love the floral embroidery on it. It's my first fabric cupped bra and I'm very pleased, the cup seems sheer upon first inspection (I have this in black) but once on it's more opaque than I expected. I love that the gore is wider because it fits my wide-set, shallow breasts very well.

The only fit problem I have with this bra is that the top of the cups where the finer lace is does wrinkle and I don't quite fill it out even with swooping and scooping, however I'm fuller on bottom so this makes sense. The bra is also a little tight and since there is no padding the underwires dig a little after a few hours.

Overall it's a very nice bra and it will be staying in my drawer despite the small fit issue.

I have a wide-set, shallow chest and I am very happy with the fit of this bra. The wires come out wide enough under my arms to encapsulate all of my breast tissue. It's a really cute pattern and the material is very soft and comfortable.

The only real problem is that the lace where it meets the top of the cup puckers slightly, meaning that I may not be *quite* projected enough, but it doesn't really bother me. The top of the lace sits against my chest very well. I like this bra and I will probably be trying to get my hands on a Juna for my next Cleo bra, which is supposed to be a pretty close cut to this bra.

I'll start by saying that this bra is very pretty, I love the eyelash lace detail on the cups and it's a very comfortable bra to wear. The band is quite stretchy so if you are between band sizes I would recommend to size down if you can.

The only really minor fit problem I have is that during some times of the month I don't *quite* fill the tops of the cups, but otherwise it fits fine. This is a good bra for shallow/wide root ladies like myself, but if you need some space between the cups this wouldn't be a good bra for you.

This bra is totally gorgeous, I love the seamed cups and lace. I also love that the wires are pretty wide, which is great for my shallow/wide rooted chest. It's mostly comfortable, but the underwires hurt when I first put on the bra because I'm pretty boney.

The only fit problem I have is that I don't have enough inner fullness to totally fill the cup, so I have little gaps just on the inner cups at the center of the bra. I can put a pack of smarties in each cup haha. Other than that, it fits me well.

Edited to add: After wearing this bra for a long day, the underwires were really painful by the gore and I had super painful redness and slight bruising from this bra. It could be attributed to the fact that I am really boney and have no cushion on that part of my ribcage, but I'm not sure.
