Didn't fit
This bra is theoretically gorgeous - the style and detail on it is lovely. I am very underwhelmed by the particular shade of neon pink it is, which makes my pale skin look a tad plague-ridden! On olive skin tones and darker skin tones without red undertones the colour would be gorgeous.
The bra itself is too structured for my soft, bottom-full, tall-rooted-yet-quite-shallow-above-the-nips breasts. It doesn't have the give of the freya fearne plunge balcony (which fits like a dream on me). As a result, although I fill out the bottom well and the wire is perfect, there is gaping at the top above the nipple. I think the starlet bra in the vertical seam style would be a better fit on my shape (unless it is not as projected at the bottom of the bra).
If you are shallow on top (or shallow generally, I would guess) then this bra is not for you. The cups themselves want a fair amount of projection, and they close off at the top. Although the cups themselves are sheer and delicate-looking, the stitching really does make this one act like a structured bra.
A shame as, in a different colour, this bra would be one of my favourite things, aesthetic-wise! But back to the shop it goes!Neon Pink colorway
