Tutti Rouge?
I'm one of those ladies who prefers a minimized look in her bras, and Bras I Hate sang the praises of Tutti Rouge for a fit like this. However, I've been having a hell of a time trying to get my hands on any of these bras (curse that ridiculous over-seas shipping) I want to make sure if I do get one, I'll be happy with it so I don't have to worry about return shipping! Does anyone have experience with this brand? What styles are the best for a close-to-the-vest shape - I've heard the Liliana is good, but I'm curious about the Betty. And does anyone know if the wires more on the narrow or wide side? (I'm tired of investing my hard-earned money in bras that are half under my armpit.)

Never tried the Liliana (too many fit issues across the board), but I have the Betty in berry. It's definitely got wider wires, and the band ran small. At the time, I was 28H and the actual 28H was really like a 24 band. The 30GG I ended up with is actually like 28H. It's a beautiful bra, but I'm not sure if they've actually worked out the size problems. It apparently wasn't so bad in the larger band sizes, but in small ones it's a big problem. Hopefully they've fixed it, but I am too afraid to buy another without knowing for sure.
Okay just tried it on again to make sure: Yes, the wires go a little over half way into my arm pits. It's got a fairly shallow shape (so does the Liliana I know) as well, and the gore is really tall. I still love it, but no longer wear wide wires so it's being relegated to the bedroom. I could probably wear a 30H in it as I quadboob a little
