Didn't fit

I have this bra in both pink and purple. I like the colors https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> As expected though, these bras didn't fit me. I have performed alterations on both of these bras, although I never really completed one of the bra's alterations, lol. The alterations I did won't affect the measurements though, because I only shortened the straps. Severely so. I'm very short(5 feet/152 cm tall).

I'm pretty sure the cups are too small for me. I didn't swoop and scoop properly when I tried these bras on the first times so really, I thought the cups were great for me. Now that I swoop and scoop the way you're supposed to, I get cleavage almost up to my collarbone and if you get cleavage in this bra it shouldn't really be visible anyway, because this bra is very high cut. This suggests to me that 32D isn't sufficiently big enough for me regarding cup size. Oh, and one big thing, I'd say this bra is petite-friendly if you alter the strap length, because the straps are very centered even on my small frame https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I almost always have problems with the straps being too far out so that they chafe my armpits but the straps are at least an inch closer to the neck in this bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> AWESOME! It's a wireless bra but it still has defined cups(cup seams) and I'd say the cup width is neither wide nor narrow. It's somewhere in the middle and I think that's great because that means it would be compatible to most women. The lack of wires also means that if the cups are slightly too narrow it won't hurt your breast tissue anyway, because there wouldn't be anything hard pressing on it. One thing I really like about this bra is the band! Most bands are uncomfortable whether they are too big or perfect because the band construction simply isn't constructed the way I would have wanted it to be. I love the band construction on this one! It doesn't rely on the elastic strips at the edges to anchor the bra to your body, it is equally as firm in the band on the edges AND the main part of the band - the middle. It is such a comfortable band! And that really says something because the band is actually too big for me but it isn't quite as noticeable because the band construction is good. It is firm all over as opposed to semi-firm in the middle and ultra-firm at the edges. How do bra manufacturers think generally, really? That's the most common construction and it's so painful compared to this one! The way this band is constructed is the best one in my opinion not only in terms of comfort, but apperance. It definitely is much more smooth and you won't get those dreadful lumps in the back. I have to hook this bra on the tightest hook straight away and it rides up so it is too big for me, yet it feels a ton more supportive than bras that are tighter due to the construction! I think if I were to alter the band on this bra to an appropriate length for my body, it would be the ultimate band, seriously! When I get some spare time I think I will and then I will update this review also https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I haven't had the chance to try this bra on for high impact exercise because it hasn't been supportive enough due to the straps being too long, the band being too big and the cups being too small, but I will get back to you if I alter it https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Even so, if it wouldn't be suitable for high impact exercise like running, I'd still recommend it because it really contains your bust and it would be great for weight training and training that's not as vigorous. It's a very comfortable bra. VERY. I think this is the kinda bra that you would forget you're wearing because the band is awesome and the straps are padded.
