Oblivion

I bought this bra because I love the colour - it's such a pretty combination. This is the first Curvy Kate bra that I ordered (but the 5th I've received) so I was pretty lost as to which size to order. I read that the band size is a little smaller than in other Curvy Kates, so it's not as necessary to size down in the band, but that the cups were bigger so to size down by 1. This is what I did, hoping for a perfect fit.

Unfortunately, a perfect fit was not had. The cups are extremely small on me. I don't think I have top-heavy ... breasts, so it's not an issue with the bra not accommodating that; it's just that it's waaay to small. The band is a good-ish fit; I'm fastening it on the second hook. Going down a band size would probably make it too small.

The cups do come up higher on this bra than on the Tease Me bra - the Tease Me threatens to show my nipples at the top edge, but the Fleurty doesn't. I have also ordered this bra in a 32E and 32F (these were the only other 2 sizes I could find that might fit) so am hoping that one of them fits!

I also ordered the matching shorts, which are kind of a strange fit. The top elastic is quite a bit tighter than the rest of the short, so while it cuts in, the rest of the short fits a little loose.

Fits small in both the band and cup - i usually wear a 30F but this one fits in a 32F.

I have this in both the strapless and the regular styles - this strapless is in black.

I prefer the fit of the regular Freya Deco (4234) s to the strapless style. The shape of the cup is a bit different, and I find the more plungy shape a bit more comfortable. Overall, it's a very similar fit to the Freya Deco Strapless (4233) , except for one thing - the velvet trim that is stitched across the top of the cup makes the cup a bit narrower at that point than the part of the cup distal to it from the wire. It sort ... of creates a bit of a quad-boob look, even if the top of the cup doesn't dig in and it fits in general.

I ordered this online, and they didn't have the next size up, so I can't experiment and see if it would fit me better. I don't think it would - I think it might swallow everything up and still leave that little indent along the velvet. I'd missed the return window by the time I could pick it up, so I'm hoping that it will loosen a bit with wears and washes.

As with any strapless, I suppose, the band on this bra is fairly tight. I don't find I have a lot of extra room on the middle hooks, but if my 32E Deco Strapless in nude is any indicator, I may have to take the band in after I wear it a few times.

So happy to have finally figured out my bra size in the Tease Me. Beautiful and comfortable.

I bought this bra in 2 colours- black and ivory. I didn't find that there was a fit difference between the colours, both black and ivory fit very much the same. I wrote a longer review for the black one, and I don't know if it would be useful for people to have a second review stating the same things here for the ivory.

Beautiful. The cups are the right size, and it will fit when I alter the band.

This bra's measurements have been altered

Altered band, Shortened band from 36 to 30

I love this bra. It's so pretty, but like the Liliana, the straps are far too long and need to be shortened. The band is also too big around, but I thought it might be as I usually wear a 30 band. I also usually go for an F, so as a 32F this bra is one size up from my regular size. The cups seem to fit though.

I finally got around to altering this bra, and altered the band down to a 30 (so now it's a 30FF) and reduced the very long straps to lengths that would actually fit. The fit of this bra is a bit strange - it's pretty shallow at the bottom of the cup, so there's a lot of wrinkling there for me. The rest of the cup seems to fit pretty well, though. So I'm pretty happy that I went for the bigger size, as I think that my regular size would be too small given the shallowness of the cup.

Can't say enough good things about this bra. I have it in all the colours. Fits perfect and gives a round shape.

This size fits better than the 30FF I had before. The band is a bit tight, but it is ok.

Fits like a typical deco.
