Didn't fit

By looking at some of my old bras, I'm guessing that this is somewhere between a 28FF and 28G in size. It was much too small, even after taking out the remove-able padding in the cups. I'm usually around a 28GG, sometimes larger.

Even then, I really like this bra and the way that it's cut. The wires are a good size and shape for me, but there just wasn't enough depth there. I also like the wider band because it gives a much better line under clothing. I'm 5'1", so the straps had to be tightened as far as they could go, but the bra didn't poke under my armpit at all. I agree that it has a way of pushing any and all breast tissue forwards. I've never been able to see my silhouette so clearly without my breasts getting in the way.

Another thing that I noticed after looking at other reviews was that there wasn't as much boning as the one that Vee received. There wasn't any boning in the remove-able padding and can't feel any boning in the cups either. The side wings had vertical boning, but not the additional horizontal boning that she pictured. There wasn't a side support panel, but it did a good job of push everything forward without it. I emailed to ask about these things and I was told that the differences between the two bras is that Vee's was a custom order, and not the standard Lacie bra. In my correct size, they felt I wouldn't need those extras.

I have to say, though, that the customer service is excellent. Tallia, the person I've been in contact with, has been really amazing so far in terms of fitting and advice about their products. Overall, I like this brand and am exchanging this for a better size...

As an aside, Braologie asked for several measurements before making the bra, but after receiving it and seeing how small this was in the cups, I re-measured myself. I realized that I had messed up on measuring my breast perimeter, so this may have been a reason why it was so far off in cup sizing.
