Betty is a beautiful bra! When I first got her, the band was so tight I could barely fasten it. When I did get her fastened, the cups were distorted from the band being too tight, causing the wires to be too wide and the cups to be too shallow, giving me space at the bottom and sides of the cup, and the slightest bit of quadboob at the top. The gore was also floating. I am a true 28, and it was very, very tight.
I got an extender and starting wearing her with the extender. With an extender, the band is much more comfortable, the cups sit much better (I still get a little bit of space at the bottom and sometimes a tiny bit of quadding), and she's overall much more comfortable. The gore still does not lay completely flat, but it's not uncomfortable at all. The problem is that I am very close set and have a lot of center fullness, so even though Betty has a narrow gore, she doesn't have enough projection near the gore.
The fabric is soft and the lace is not scratchy at all. The shape is very round. Under clothes, it's a very minimised look. Without clothes, I think Betty looks gorgeous on me. She makes me feel very confident about my boobs. Bratabase marks her as not fitting, but I think she fits pretty good-with an extender. She's one of my favorite bras.
Edit: I've bent the wires to make them narrower, which also gives more depth in the cup. The fit is significantly better! They are surprisingly easy to bend, but they bend back a bit when I put it on. I'm still using the extender, which is why the straps seem too wide. Using a ribbon to tie it racerback helps and it also gives me more space in the cups.
