Didn't fit

My 34J boobs are very soft, balanced/FOB, with lots of immediate projection and (I think) narrow roots. Hettie is one of only three bras I've tried that more or less stay in my IMF, and it's quite comfortable. For me, the Hettie gives a more natural shape rather than the very round shape Cleo is famous for, but not pointy.

In my size, the top half of the cup has a layer of mesh behind the lace. ( I think this is a feature in GG and up.) Smaller cup sizes just have one layer of stretch lace. Other folks with very soft breasts have reported in-cup quadding from the stretch-lace-only version. I don't have any in-cup quadding in the 34J, and my boobs are very prone to that. (I can't make Curvy Kate Ellace work at all for this reason.)

UPDATE: Sadly, I do have some quadding at the top of the cup after a few wears. Still serviceable, but not a good fit.

Violet Mix colorway

  • try to sew center gore in this will give more room in the center and reduces quadding, and lowerring cup at the sides

Still wearing it, even though I quad out a little.

Underwire length:
Runs too high under the arm, it pokes
Top of the cup:
Cuts into breast tissue (quad boob effect)

This bra didn't fit her, but these did
