Didn't fit
I bought this bra in "nude" to wear under a wide-neck, low-cut dress at a wedding, and it did pretty well for that.
PROS:
Well-made.
The cut is perfect for wide-neck dresses -- I have quite broad shoulders and I really liked how wide-set the straps were.
Very feminine. Doesn't feel like a 'big' bra.
CONS:
I ordered at least 2 cup sizes too small, a newbie mistake on my part -- but having never worn a bra that fit before, I didn't seriously believe it was possible that I needed a cup size as big as I did. A scoop and swoop brought me spilling out of the top, and I have bottom-heavy breasts!
The band was a little looser than I expected -- I think if I were to reorder larger cups I would also downsize to a 30.
Bottom-heavy as I am, the cut just wasn't good on me. I like something with a little more lift. I think that's a function of the typical Curvy Kate style, not a fault of this bra.
I ordered a bland color because that's what I was looking for, but I'd definitely go more colorful if I did it again!This bra is not owned any more
