This is possibly one of the worst fitting bras for my shape: average width, close-set, projected, short root.
In theory, I love this bra! I was really hoping the back band would lay things nice and smooth. This bra has a wonderful double layer in the band with hidden seams and no visible elastic. But it never had a chance since the cups are so wide and shallow. I couldn't fill out the bottom and the top was squishing me flat with quadding all over. The gore is not very tall, but it was still too wide on me and didn't sit flat. The underwire was oddly a full inch shorter than the channel.
At the same time I purchased this one, I also ordered the Paramour Gorgeous Seamless Contour #255455. That was a completely different fit than this one, even though it is also from the Gorgeous series. The contour version is much more projected.
Overall, maybe this one simply runs small in both the band and cups. But I suspect if I sized up the cups would be way too wide. Oh well!
PS: for reference, this bra is labeled 'Paramour by Felina' with the same model number as the Felina listed here.
