Used to fit

All I can say is, if it actually fit me like it should this would've been one of those bras that I wear until they fall apart (quite literally). I'm not so sure of my shape but I've found that seamed/padding Free bras are the ones that I am able to fill completely and this bra is no exception! The band does run tight though, which for me is a good thing because I'm in between a 26 and 28 band. The lace in this bra is very forgiving as I do not know what size I am currently but I do know that this is too small (underwires resting on boobs - leaving marks - bigger Boob being forced down lower into the cup) yet somehow I feel like I'm not spilling as nearly as bad as I should be. The shape that this bra gives under a t-shirt though is lovely. Like many others this bra fits more like a full coverage bra than anything even though it's listed as a balconette. If anyone has any fit tips or advice feel free to comment!

Updated review: Due to a recent size fluctuation this bra now fits me perfectly! The only slight issue that I have is how high the cups come under my arms.

  • in this size range, the difference between balconette and full coverage may be more subtle. does it come in a 30JJ?

  • dbmamaz Not that I saw unfortunately:(
    I did see the Melody on Amazon in 28KK though! I was figuring the most I'd have to go up would be two cup sizes as I'm having quadding/boobs spilling and escaping from the back of the bra. Another thing is the fact that I don't really know my actual breast shape/type, to me I seem to balance between FOB and FOT.

  • full all over, or even
