Got this from a Bratabase member, so the band has already been relaxed. Band is very snug, but not uncomfortable. Straps are far too far apart, which creates a wrinkling in the top of the cup. If I could wear the straps wider, the cup would fit perfectly. I have narrow, sloping shoulders.

My apex is not where the bra seems to want the apex to be (I am lower and more forward--the seams on this bra meet higher and slightly more east/west). It gives me the rounded look many women seem to love, but rounded means my arms brush my boobs when I lift my arms because the boobs are now slightly wider than my torso.

Although I fill the bottom, I have this slight feeling of orange in glass--very slight but it's there (just a little more cup left over at the bottom, maybe 1/4 inch). Since the wires form a wider, more open bottom-of-the-U, I'm not sure why this would be.

So this bra will go into my rotation because it fits better than a couple I am no longer wearing, but it's convincing me I am not a Freya type.

Update Mar 1: Just can't make it work. the band is about 1/2 inch too short, and adding an extender makes the straps fall off (well, not really fall off since they are then too wide to even sit on my shoulders). The round shape is fine from a profile view but straight on it looks (to me anyway) like I have two large balloons on my chest.

This bra is not owned any more
