Didn't fit

One of the bras I bought while trying to figure out my size. I had to send it back in a rush, so unfortunately don't have measurements for it, but the fit is great for me (slightly shallow, slightly splayed, firm, slightly FoB; usually 30DD/E).

It's an amazingly pretty bra, and very sturdy too (one of my pictures is wonky, the colour is quite nice). Fit well all around--the band, while not as tight as I'd like, is wearable on loosest hook; straps adjust to right length, comfortable; cups are right shape and size; no gaping, fits my IM fold, I fill out everywhere. It gave me a nice round shape, too. My boobs are naturally firm (since they're small), so I rarely get any uplift in bras, but this one felt like maybe it pushed up a little bit?

Only issue is, the wire ends hurt like crazy as soon as I put it on. This is the literally the only bra that has ever given me this problem. Usually, wires are either okay or a little wide on me, but this one hurts like no other. It doesn't dig into my side tissue or anything, but it just really hurt my ribs. Sternum probably digs in, but I couldn't wear it enough to tell. Also, the wire is almost an inch too short for the channel, which is why the side of the bra is doing that weird indent. Others have this issue too, so it seems to be a design decision--but why?

This is the one bra that I'm very sad to have to send back, with how pretty it is. I own some other Fauve bras too, but those don't hurt at all.

This bra is not owned any more
