- Center gore comfort:
- Underwires dig into sternum, because they are too high
- Strap separation:
- Not a problem
- Top of the cup:
- Cuts into breast tissue (quad boob effect)
- Band fit:
- The band is definitely too big

Didn't fit
I already reviewed the black Faye (here: http://bra.pe/RBoC/) but as I bought the beige as well I measured it, just for kicks.
And I think it's fair to say that the beige runs both larger and stretchier in the band than the black; I pulled this one out to 84 cm/33". It fits comfortably on the loosest hooks around my hips--not, by any stretch of the imagination, around my underbust. I've probably worn smaller 32s.
I didn't find the bra noticeably bigger anywhere other than the band. I get the same weird combination of wrinkles and quadboob, in about the same places, and the wires still end up poking my sternum.
I do actually need a belt, but I'll be returning this one anyway.This bra is not owned any more
