I read in advance that Tutti Rouge bras run small in the cups. I have to agree with that, but I think the issue is also one of shape. This bra has a very wide, shallow fit. Which works well for my breasts (wide, tall root; shallow). Because my shape aligns with the shape the bra is designed for, I think I made the right decision getting my usual size. If I were more projected or FOT, however, I think I would have needed to go a cup size up. I'm also a shade too FOB for this bra, which causes a tiny bit of wrinkling at the bottom of the cups. The wires on this bra are rather wide -- slightly too tall in the center for me, and a bit high on the sides. They don't poke, but they do dig in a smidge. It's not too uncomfortable to wear, but I can feel it constantly. I've only worn the bra a few times so far; I hope that it stretches out somewhat and becomes more comfortable. (I'll edit this review to reflect that, if it happens.*) Because it's so wide, this bra has a minimizing effect. It gives a smaller, flatter shape, which isn't particularity sexy, but which I appreciate for occasions requiring modest dress. Writing this all out, it starts to sound as if this bra doesn't fit at all. It really does, but it's not perfect. Still, none of the flaws in fit are visible, when the bra is on -- and the Liliana is an incredibly pretty bra.

*Edit: I've worn this bra several times now. It has yet to soften, as regards the wires. Additionally, I become more aware of the shape-mismatch at the bottom of the cups, each time I wear it. Alas, I've decided that I am simply too FOB for this bra.

This bra is not owned any more
