Didn't fit
The cups of this bra are too small for me.
The good: Wow this feels tight, I had to try it using a bra extender, I realise not every one will see this as a good point as technically it means that the bra doesn't fit, but I like my bras nice and snug and don't mind one bit if I have to use a extender until the stretch out enough to fit; Four hooks, the back of the bra is nice and thick and feels like it would be supportive (if it fit) whilst still being quite pretty; The straps adjust fine for me and they have those hoopy edges to keep the slides in place.
The bad: The underwires are overly flexible, flimsy even, they stretch far too easily; The bra is supposed to be long line but it only extends 1 inch below the bottom of the cups; It gives me a very vintage pointy shape, I feel like I could have someone's eye out if I turned around too fast; The thin foam on the inside of the cups looks and feels cheap, I wouldn't describe it as moulded or padded, structured perhaps, like the cup linings I remember from from my Mum's swimsuits in the 80s.
I am really unimpressed with this bra, although outwardly pretty the inside of this bra really lets it down for me, not to mention that It really isn't that long line. The overly pointy shape really isn't to my taste and I cant imagine that it would be comfortable to wear for any length of time. I definitely wont be trying this in any other sizes.
