This review is for the Ruby colorway, which has accents in chocolate brown. The blue Lucia, which has black accents, fits noticeably bigger in the cups than the Ruby colorway. Oddly enough, the center gore of the Ruby is also noticeably shorter than the blue Lucia's.

This lovely bra fits as a 30F Fauve padded half cup should. It fits like these other Fauve 30F half cup bras:
Evangeline in black, Evangeline in Biscuit (clear, golden beige), and Evangeline in red
Emmanuelle in blue/black
Maya in Butterscotch (clear, golden beige)
Chloe in teal, Chloe in blue, and Chloe in black
Veronique in magenta
Marla in blue, Marla in purple

I think you can understand why I was so annoyed that the 30F blue Fauve Lucia was not cut to the same depth as all those others.

To return to this ruby Fauve Lucia, it feels luxurious, as you would expect from Fauve. It gives dramatic, cakes on a plate cleavage. It has striking embroidery and trims. The Lucia model has an embroidered bow, placed asymmetrically on the left cup only, where it meets the strap.

The straps are partially adjustable. They continued the satin material and trims up the front of the straps. I'm petite, with somewhat high set breasts, but the straps shortened short enough for me. Each cup has two vertical seams.

The chocolate brown embroidery and trims are a dark chocolate color. So a high end milk chocolate, which has about 60% cocoa, also resembles this color. This color does NOT resemble Hersheys milk chocolate. I'm not judging you if that's what you like; I'm just pointing out how dark this brown accent color is.

This bra is not owned any more
