Used to fit

I was really curious to try Miss Mandalay. I've read a lot of different reviews about it.

My first impression: this thing is stiff! And tight! And it looks pretty.

And it fits. Easily. If you're a small 28 that is; anyone with an underbust larger than 26in should size up to a 30. Yes, the +3 or 4 rule applies to this brand I think. The cups are forgiving in terms of breast shapes: the tops of the cups are fairly supple and loose.

I am just not really fond of this bra yet. The band stretches just as far as my Cleo Zia, but it somehow is a lot tighter. Stiffer, really. It doesn't really feel sexy either, despite being sheer. I'd like the shape to be a bit more balconette. I really feel like I have to 'break it in'.

Also quite interesting: the wire is super-bendy; despite appearing narrow. It widens and springs back.
And I love the narrow gore.
