Didn't fit
I already had won this bra on eBay and had it on the way before my ribcage got magically smaller (I lost maybe 3 pounds while I had the flu a week ago, and while my breasts grew half an inch, my ribcage went down by half an inch. Go figure.) and so by the time I got it I kind of already knew it wasn't going to fit. I'll probably list it on here, it's brand new with tags and all.
First off-A 28 would definitely have been way better, but apparently they don't make a 28, which is a shame as it's quite pretty for a nude bra, and he straps and armholes seemed a bit better than the usual. The 30 band seemed a tad snugger than some 30 bands I've seen/tried before, but not close to a 28-maybe a 29-and it rode up when I bent over slightly. A 28 band, if it existed, running a bit snug as this one did, would have been a near perfect fit.
Secondly- If the band size had been a 28, the cups would probably also have been perfect, as they were just a smidge too big, and if the band was smaller the cups would have been graded down a bit as well. They also seemed to run a bit large, but possibly it just runs a bit more like a full cup on me, as many balcony bras do.
Finally- the cups were waaaay too wide for my root. This would probably be best for someone with a wide root, in my opinion, because it really is quite wide.
The shape wasn't bad, especially from the side-uplifted despite the looseness of the band, and relatively rounded.
I love the detailing on the straps, they were lovely. As far as nude bras go, in color this one was about a shade dark on my skin, but my skin is super pale(I wear the lightest shade of any makeup foundation I buy, and sometimes that is a bit darker than it needs to be, depending.), so I think on a slightly darker complexion, it would be perfectly matched. The photos make it look a touch lighter than it is in reality, it's more of a beige.
Overall, a lovely bra, it just won't work for my shape, and while in the past I might have accepted it, I would rather just have a bra that works-I have plenty that are "almost right."
