Too closed in the top of the cup, I think. Maybe sizing up would fix the issue with the weird shape? Not sure. Too tight in the band. Otherwise it's nice. Wire widths are good.

I really, really wanted this bra to work for me because it is just so beautiful. However, just like the Paramour Ellie, the center of the cups is too shallow and pushes my breasts under my arms. The cups are also very wide.

Even though this gore is comfortable in both width and height for my breasts, I still think the cups are too wide-set for me. I feel like this bra was made for someone who is wider across the front of the rib cage. As a result, I feel like this bra attempts to pull my breasts to my sides in an east-west fashion, resulting in quadding at the top edge of the cup as well as lots of wrinkles along the base of the cup. I don't believe it's that it doesn't have enough lower PROJECTION, because when I look at the cup, it does seem to have good lower projection. I think it's just a matter of this bra wanting my torso to be wider across the front than it is.

I tried the Paramour Ellie in a 34G and a 34H (US sizes). The 34H gave me more room than the 34G but still was very shallow along the center and bottom of the wires, pushing my breasts towards my sides and under my arms. I also had wrinkling along the top of both cups in this size, so the H is definitely not the size for me.

My only wish is that this bra was cheaper (I paid $82.00 USD for it) and that it had come out sooner! It's really comfortable - the material is soft, silky, and very forgiving, from the band that doesn't cut into my squish to the stretch lace top of the cups that don't cut into my tissue. Love this bra - I wouldn't have paid $82.00 for it if I didn't. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> It's CUTE, too! The cut-out is super sexy.

This is an absolutely beautiful bra, and I wish it fit me, but the cups are definitely too small, and I get quad-boob as well as spillage under the arms.

Wtb all the Avocados... Seriously this is so soft and stretchy and forgiving. I definitely thought the band would be too tight but it is SO COMFORTABLE. AND STRETCHY. OMG. I want to buy all of them from you. Is this normal for Avocado?

SO PRETTY WHY WON'T YOU FIT ME. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Depth is in all the wrong places (I need immediate projection at the base and center of my bras). Gore is a bit too wide and a bit too high. Wire widths are a bit too wide. Feels a little tight in the band.

The Paramour Ellie is a weird fit for me. The 34G fits better than the 34H, but the top of the left cup cuts into my left breast whereas the top of the right cup wrinkles along the top of my right breast. The cup is very shallow in the center, so my breasts are pushed (squashed, really) out to my sides; the cup is also shallow on the base along the wire, which causes some more uncomfortable squashing. The straps are set wide and cut into my underarms. It looks beautiful, and it feels like a good quality bra, but the fit does not work for me.

First of all, the fabric on this bra is soo soft and silky. However, it feels like they are trying to do some kind of weird shapewear thing with it. The wing is REALLY tall, almost like it is trying to be back-smoothing. Also, the cup has a wire channel that runs almost all the way up to the strap, but you can't really tell where it ends because it is all constructed under a seamless interior, which makes for a thicker bra with more padding. That padding under my arms was kind of annoying - and it was under my arms because yet again, the Felina cup is very wide and the straps are very wide-set (though this one was less wide set than others I've tried on).
