Fits

I am currently in a Lejaby craze, as you can tell from my recent entries. This is a plunge cut of Lejaby's Elixir Melusine line that so far exists in tatto-white, violet-plum, frisson-blue and purple-brown. This cut has been advertised as full cup, 3/4 - plunge, halfcup, balconette, etc... depending on how the individual seller deems fit. Given the low gore I would definitely go for the "plunge" description. To avoid any misunderstandings and mixing it with its full coverage sister - the code is: G40931.
I have mixed emotions about this bra: it gives a better, rounder shape to my larger breast, but would like taller wings. It is a technical fit, I think, but I wouldn't say it's a perfect one visually. I am getting more of the armpit fat look than with some other bras. Comfort feel is very high, I love the band that is on the tighter side of TTS for a 30, that is a French 80, but flexible. Narrow wires, good depth and projection and I don't fall out in the middle, as it happens with some plunges. And hey, it's blue! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I might try a cup size up to see if I get a better fit.
No idea how - I lost one of the rosette strap decorations, so will need to get rid of the other one, too.
Update: I wore it for a full day and the fit improved on my smaller breast, there was less empty space at the top when I took the bra off this evening. However, the inside rim of the cup cut in slightly on my bigger breast, so I don't know if I can really call it a fit. It's almost like one cup is a little too big while the other a little too small. And the wings are definitely too short for my taste, hate the damn armpit-boob!
