- Center gore placement:
- Doesn't lie flat against sternum
- Underwire length:
- Runs too high under the arm, it pokes
- Strap separation:
- Not a problem

Didn't fit
This is admittedly too big, which is why it doesn't fit sternum flat. But it's CUTE. It's comfortable. I like it. So there, I don't care if it's not a perfect fit. I'll probably care when I'm done with the migration.
Most bras poke my armpits, so while it's a negative score here, I just accept that it's part of getting a bra that fits everywhere else in anything other than a half cup style.
Yay, no armpit straps https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> That's actually way, way more painful than the random underwire pokes.
It shows a LOT of boobage, so if that's not the end goal, it's probably not for you. I just wear a tank over top to cover any excess. It doesn't jack the ladies to Jesus like my Curvy Kate Thrill Me [showgirl Collection] (SG3001) does, but it's not one for discrete looks with a V neck.
However, absolutely awesome back. It's comfortable. It's wide enough with 3 secure hooks. It's not too hot - which is very nice in the summer.
I know I'm going to size out of this soon enough, but it's a used bra and starting to show some cup wear, so I'm just going to cut the back out and use it on the right cup size later.
EDIT - I have modified this sucker pretty heavily. I sewed up the *basically non existent* center gore and 1" on the cups which took it from a DEEP plunge to a plunge/half cup cross. It also pulled down the wires under my armpits, so no more poking! I then took in the side seams 1/2" on both sides, which tightened up the band to a usable tightness.
The covering fabric wore differently than the cup. Plus, it wasn't highly tacked down, which I've found in other Bra D'more bras. The lace was always poking up funny, it wasn't ever going to lay flat. So I removed it, easy fix https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Then the leopard print. Ok, I like it, it's cute and my husband likes it. So I just sewed the now not tacked down free edge, just catching the top fabric covering the foam pad.. But the fabric was way too big for the cup, so I just folded the fabric up (same as the side seams) and sewed the edge down.
The modifications took it from a 36F to a 34FF/G range. It fits my right side perfectly, my left side is a little big.
