I do have to commend TBBB for offering 26-bands. There are a lot of small-backed people and companies making 28-bands that fit like 30-bands, so it's great to see companies attempting to fill the need for smaller band sizes. This particular model, however, did not work as well for me as I had hoped. The band itself is nice and tight. The center gore is low, and the underwire channels are constructed to overlap a little in the front - good for its plunge cleavage-enhancing style and for people who are close-set. The straps are WAY too long though. They are also too far apart in the back; almost as if the band was constructed as a larger band size, then taken up under the arms, bringing the straps too far toward each arm. That itself wouldn't be a huge deal, but the cups are way too small, to the point I'm assuming they're mis-sized.

Aside from fit issues, there were unfortunately some construction issues with my bra as well. They were several of the same issues HLAleo mentioned in her 28G review for this bra. The right cup on my bra was actually a little bit smaller, but it looks like an issue with the size of the blue fabric cups. The foam cup liners seem to be the same size, but the fabric on the right cup is smaller than that of the left, making the cup not only smaller but distorted as well. Also, the seams on the cup liners and the seams on the fabric cup do not match up with each other. This results in an odd flattened stripe down the front of the bra. There were also some stitching and fraying issues in places.

Had this bra fit, it would have no doubt created great cleavage. Hopefully they will keep working on their 26-band offerings, and maybe encourage others to follow suit. Unfortunately, the fit and construction issues I had with this particular bra made it unwearable for me.
