Didn't fit
Gorgeous balconette bra, but the cups run very small. Looking at how it measures, you wouldn't think so, but the fit doesn't lie.
The band runs true to size & offers FOUR HOOKS ADJUSTMENTS (woo!) but each row is a single hook, so the band is very thin (yeaaa!). I wear it on the second to tightest hook. When I do so, then I get "double boob". If I wear the band on the largest hook, then I get "Victoria Secret boob", which is not flattering under clothes however "sexy" it looks out of them. The gore cannot lie flat...because of this, it doesn't do much in the way of lift or shaping. The cups are simply too shallow & wires not quite long enough.
In the future, I will get Mimi Holliday in a 28F. Since I normally have an issue with cups having too much coverage, I would say this bra runs VERY SMALL in the cups, even for a balconette/demi.
The quality is amazing: beautiful silk, delicate straps, & soft lining.
