30DDD - Natori » Feathers Contour Plunge (730023)
I had originally put off buying this bra because the pictures make it look very tall. As a petite woman, I look for cup height as well as all the other measurements. I finally decided I needed purple bras, and the feathers one is beautiful.
Upon arrival, this bra is very soft, no boning on the sides, ... molded cup with mesh overlay. The embroidered edge is a very soft lace, and feels lightweight and very forgiving of body parts. The cup height of the molded cup is 5.25", the highest cup I like to wear. I found that this bra is a smidge too shallow for me and I needed to tack the lace to the molded cup in more than one place to firm up the cup and keep my soft boobs from "puddling".
All in all, this bra fits and the minor alterations are not an inconvenience for me. It's going in the "fits" section and I'll be looking for more of these later.

I would advise sewing a straight seam starting from the bottom. You might actually find that doing it this way will still allow you to wear it all on the same hooks. If you find that the top is still too loose, you should be able to stitch a slightly graded angle from the straight seam and starting just above the bottom set of hooks. Just make sure the first seam you do isn't too far over or you'll probably end up with the entire back being too tight.
Oh, and if you have a machine to do this on, set your stitch length to a little longer.
