Didn't fit

The bra is great, but the back band is SUPER tight. I usually wear a size 28FF in Curvy Kate, so I expected this to be fine. This bra was painful as soon as I put it on (which I was barely able to do), so I used bra back extenders to make it bearable (I made them myself out of old bras) and I also put pieces of a cut up maxi pad along the wires to reduce pain when I wore it to prom in late May. Now, I wear it without the extenders (one broke) and it is a huge relief to take it off at the end of the day. It still hurts all day, but it's the only strapless bra I have. I'm left with sore red marks, and maybe even a few cuts (there was no bleeding, but I have little dots around where the outer edge of the underwire sits). The best part about this bra is the way it looks, it fits pretty well in the cup despite my closely placed breasts. Other than the fit issue, I'm a fan of this bra.
