Didn't fit
I got this bra in a sister size - upping my band size and dropping a cup - so that I could share it with my sister, who wears a 30 band (I wear moulded cup bras only rarely, and am happy therefore for this one not to be perfect). The band is fine on the tightest hooks, and as a strapless bra it has rubber grips to keep it in place. The band does not move when I am wearing it.
Generally, the bottom of the cup is not projected enough for me, so my breast is forced upwards, with then creates a quad boob at the top of the cup. (The rubber grips on the band keep it in place well enough that it does not start climbing up my breasts.) While the quad boob is not ideal, it does create something of a cleavage, which strapless bras by a large do not for me (or any bras, really, except for the Deco Plunge). Seeing as I will only be wearing this bra for special occasions, I am pretty happy to forego some comfort for my vanity/a cleavage!
All of that aside, the bra comes with two strap options on either side - so four per strap! - which is awesome. At the moment the straps are rough and tough and scratchy, as is one of the strap-hook-places (don't know the word, sorry), which has irritated my skin. I expect that they will wash soft though.Black colorway
