Oh. My. God. I'm on this binge of trying these new brands that are promoting their inclusiveness or new sizing methods, so of course this came up. They have this weird sizing method that makes no sense and you can't tell how to go up a cup or band or whatever. They just throw you stuff based on your band and individual boob measurements. They gave me three size. This one (44.08.028) was what they recommended most along with two other possible sizes (08.080.38, 44.10.038). This size was the smallest all around of the 3. It LITERALLY squashed me. Boobs coming out the top, out the sides, out ... the front. It is absolutely horrendous. The only reason this thing could stay on as a strapless is because it was so damn tight. And the whole "no underwire" thing? Yeah, they just put a big, thick piece of stiff foam or something in place of the underwire. Sure it's less stabby, but it takes up so much space and made the whole bra bulky and awkward. I absolutely do not recommend every trying this thing except maybe for kicks.

30F/FF, FoT, narrow and tall root

My boyfriend bought this lovely bra for me but sadly it doesn't work for me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> There wasn't much info about this one so I will try to provide as much as possible to help out anyone else interested in this.

First of all, it is very open on top so it acts like a cup size bigger. The cups themselves are also fairly stiff and the design is two part, padded vertical seamed. It seems slightly shallow in the center with a good amount of bottom projection. The wires are, as usual, ... too wide for me but I think they are probably in the average range.

Band is snug and comfortable. The cups have a detailed mesh overlay and a satin band running across the top of the cups and gore. Since the cups are far too large for me I cannot say if the top part would show under clothing or not. The front part of the straps are made of the same satin as on the cups and the straps are partially adjustable. It's certainly a beautiful bra.

30F/FF tall and narrow root, FoT

I tried this on in the store Intimacy. Since I'm mostly a 30FF I feel like this bra ran a little large in the cups and like usual, stretchy in the band. I have the Lucia in red and love it even though it's a tad bit small for me. Primarily I enjoy the cakes on a plate cleavage I get from my Lucia and was disappointed at not achieving the same level in the Lavina. The cups fit perfectly but it was just not the same sort of construction. The gore was lower and the sides higher so it didn't lift my breasts in quite the same way.

30F/FF narrow and tall roots, projected, full on top

This is currently my best fitting bra and along with that it is absolutely gorgeous. I love the black lace overlay on the red fabric. The straps also have a neat lace detailing on the front part that shows through a red ribbon. The cups are narrow enough for my roots and fit my breasts perfectly while providing a lovely rounded shape. While it is definitely not a cleavage bra I love the way my breasts look in this bra. The lace on the top edge is a little bit open and loose but does not interfere with fit or show underneath clothing at all. My only issue with this bra is that I need the second hook of an extender but hopefully that will be fixed when the elastic relaxes a bit.

30F/FF narrow and tall roots, projected, full on top

First of all, I found the band to be too tight for my 29 in ribcage. I needed an extender to assess fit because otherwise the cups became distorted. Fit wise, I have my usual problem of slightly too wide wires but aside from that I fill them out completely. There is a decent amount of lower project, which I don't need, so while I love the look of this bra it would probably be better suited for someone who is full on bottom or even. The top of the cup doesn't cut in a lot but the embroidery detail does cause it to be little closed on top.

30F/FF tall and narrow root, average projection, full on top

I bought this NWT and is the first EM "bra" I have purchased. My usual band size is 30, sometimes 28 in Freya, but I found this to be uncomfortably tight on me. With an extender it was fine.

Regarding the cups, when standing straight they looked like the fit perfectly but I dislike how much wrinkling and space there was when I move around. I've since determined that I prefer the fit of one cup volume down even though I get some slight quadboob.

Overall the babydoll is incredibly sexy and playful. I love sheer lingerie and wearing this with a lace thong gave a very sex goddess look https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

30F/FF narrow and tall roots, projected, full on top

The wires of the Maya are not quite as narrow as I would like but are close enough to the right width that it isn't uncomfortable at all. Overall this bra is very comfortable and I like the fit. My only minor complaint is that the top edge of the cup is a little less open than I would prefer and it cuts into my tall breasts ever so slightly. It's not anything that anyone other than myself would notice though.

30F/FF tall and narrow root, average projection, splayed, full on top

Fauve bras are the right mix of sexy and elegant, making one of my absolute favorite brands. The Lucia is a gorgeous deep ruby color with black embroidery and trim. It gives perfect cakes on a plate cleavage and an upfront rounded profile.

I feel my only complaint would be how loose their bands are. Even though it's a 30 I need to put it on the tightest hook or the wires will slide down in front and the band will rise in the back. The decoration on the front of the straps is also not to my taste. In my opinion, ones that are simple black or the same ruby of the bra would look nicer.

This is another brand I wanted to review due to their claiming to be size inclusive and helping give better fit. One look at their size range though and it's obvious it really isn't. I usually wear a UK 30F and they do not have something in my size. Furthermore, their sizing guide put my 30/37 measurements as a 36C. I bought a 36C and 32DD, which was the closest I could get to my normal size. This one, the 36C, fit as expected: way too large in the band and too small in the cups. The measurements also show that both these bras even run quite loose ... in the band. This bra is very pretty and I love the different range of body types that the brand showcases, but it has a long way to go regarding size inclusiveness. Given Rihanna's massive fame, she has a chance to make a real difference in spreading knowledge about proper bra fitting/sizing with her brand. I hope they step up their game in the future instead of being same old, same old that just claims to be different.

Me:FoT, narrow and tall root, average projection, splayed.

Turns out this is a US 32F which equals a UK 32E. There's is a little bit of mismatch shape since it's a size small but it's not really noticeable. Band is somewhat firm but cups are incredibly comfy.
