Me: Narrow roots, narrow shoulders, evenly round, lots of immediate projection, very soft tissue, fairly centre full, never met a gore I didn't like, left-heavey by more than a cup size, 31" underbust, but prefer tight band with extender. Panache, Freya size 30GG

This is my second attempt at Avocado. I cupped down and went up a band. The band does not seem noticeably longer and measures the same as my 65L. I didn't like the softness of the wires the first time, but I thought the looser band would decrease the distortion. It doesn't. The wires are just really, really, soft. It makes me wonder if they are plastic, but as I am not keeping it, I can't pull it apart. The cup fit is better, but it still quads on my centre fullness. There is not enough immediate projection, it's ok, but really not enough to keep, even if it fit better. There is gaping at the strap attachment - typical for my centre fullness. The straps, which I usually need fully extended, seem shorter than most others and cause in-cup quading. The wires are very U-shaped at the centre and fairly tall and angled outwards on the outside.

The materials are soft, no stretch, and well sewn. It is not just the wires, it is the sizing and the lack of immediate projection and centre fullness room. Oh well!

This bra is not owned any more
