Didn't fit
First: Bratabase says this bra doesn't fit - the band is a bit too tight.
I've been wearing this bra with an extender for the first few times. And now it does fit, so it stretched out a bit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> But I think next time I will order a 30D.
Well, what to say to this beauty?
I'm in love with the Tease Me design. It's chique, sexy, reminds me of burlesque dance but really beautiful.
I've always wanted the purple Tease Me and now brastop had it on sale for 10pounds only. My big chance.
I don't regret it, the bra provides a really nice shape. I think this bra looks best when the cups are rather tight. Not too tight https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
Then it does push without squeezing. I like.
The braids at the cups can be seen a bit through a shirt, so if you don't like this, maybe cut them off or order another bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
I don't mind, so I will keep the braids. So sweet, with the satin ribbon details!
The wires tend to poke a bit in the sternum and on the ribcage. It was worse the first few times I've worn it, but now it's a lot better.
But if you are really sensitive, maybe this bra isn't your best choice.
Note:
Fellow bra bloggers and bra communities have found out that with Curvy Kate you often have to go up one cup in bigger cup sizes!
(In my sizing range this doesn't apply.)
EDIT:
I tried on this bra in the colour pink/black from 2011 and it was overall to small for me. I would definitely need a 28E or 30DD with this colour.
So the sizing seems to vary with the different collections!
The cups were didn't go up as high as the purple ones and the cups were overall smaller and more shallow.
One word: nipplegate.
This bra is not owned any more
