Didn't fit
If you would like a more detailed descriptionof this bra style, please go read my review for Freya's Rio bra in size 28F. Thank you!
This bra fit me better than the size 28F bra, although I still experienced poking from the underwires and wrinkling where the cup meets the strap. I found that the poking is particularly bad in the center gore area. I have experienced this with every single balconette style that i have tried so far, no matter how well they fit me, so I am coming to the conclusion that I will e needing a lower-cut style such as a plunge bra.
If you find the mesh material slightly itchy in che cup, please give it a wash or two and it will go away. I would also like to note that the band might be a little tight (and I should technically be wearing a 26 band size), but this will also lessen after a few wears. This style isn't my favorite bra, but it could be a lot worse.
