I've lost weight, so the cup isn't as full as it used to be and definitely gapes on my smaller breast, but it doesn't show under clothes and isn't uncomfortable.

Used to fit
My shape: slightly shallow teardrop/FOB with super wide/tall roots and very close-set tissue in the middle
This review is for the Silver colorway.
Of course! As soon as my gorgeous new [full-price] Bronte arrived from Figleaves, they posted a 50% off sale...
In spite of my annoyance, I am thrilled. I love my 32F - Fauve » Bronte Padded Longline Bra (0331) to bits and it is still one of the best fitting bras I have ever owned. The silver satin really shimmers in the light! I love longlines, too, and the beautiful embroidered lace around the edges and on the straps is characteristic of Fauve's attention to detail.
Vertical-seam half cups seem to be the best shape for me by far, and this is no exception. The cup is tall enough that I don't pop over the top, but short enough and open-on-top enough that nothing cuts into my tall roots. The padding is minimal and really only prevents show through, so there are no giant foam cookies pushing my boobs into weird shapes. It's super comfortable and the gore is high but somehow doesn't dig! YAY
I noticed a little bit of a gape at the top of the cup on my smaller breast in this one, which I don't recall having in the Spice colorway - that is, the cups on the Spice gape a teensy amount because it wasn't tailored to me personally, and obviously rather more when I hunch my shoulders because of how wide the straps are set, but this is a bit more. I also noticed that the bottom of the cup looks a tiny bit shallower than the Spice, but I'll have to double check next time I wear it. The straps also seem to be set a little bit wider.
Overall, it's very comfortable and while wearing it under clothes the differences in the colorways (if I'm not imagining them) is negligible. Still grumpy about my timing with regards to the half-off sale, but ecstatic about my pretty new Bronte. Love!

Cups seem slightly larger in Silver than Spice (orange), but still not uncomfortable or problematic.
