Didn't fit

I was very excited when this bra was released, first because of the design, but I was also very curious about the new 3D style. I ordered it in 65e, my normal EM size.
This construction is very different from the PL style. It seems that it's based on the idea that smaller breast (up to 65e/70dd/75d etc. cup) don't need such a support as the bigger ones (from 65f/70e/75dd) because they're firm and not so heavy. As a result, the new style was designed to have a "lighter" construction - the cups are very low, the band is partial.
So, my first problem with this new construction, is that my 65e boobs are not only saggy, but also rather heavy. Taking this into consideration, this new style couldn't really work in my case.

What I like in this bra:

- the design
- the front part of the straps is very comfy
- the center gore is almost nonexistent https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> the underwires are just connected with a thin piece of fabric

What I don't like:

- the cups difinitely smaller than a normal 65e and too low for this size
- the straps are almost too short
- the band is rather loose
- the underwires are far too wide and too flexible, they strech with the band
- I don't feel secure due to the low cups, my boobs try to escape

When I first tried this bra on, it fitted almost good. The cups were too low, but they didn't cut into the breast tissue. The band was ok fastened on the 2nd or the 3rd hook (4 hooks in total). The problem, which can be seen on the photos, appeared after the first washing (HANDwashing in lukewarm water) - the cups shrunk. Since then I couldn't wear it anymore.
In conclusion, I'm quite disappointed with this bra, but I saw in the newest collection, that the partial band has been replaced by a full band, which is an unquestionnable improvement. The size range has also been extended up to the 65f/70e etc cup. I intend to try this style one more time, I'm just waiting for a convincing designhttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

This bra is not owned any more
