My first Polish bra and it fits! The band is tight on the loosest set of hooks and I'm afraid of stretching out the band too much so I wear it with an extender to prolong its life. So this could potentially work for people who need 26 bands (I have a 27" loose UB). I usually wear a 28D (even and shallow) in UK brands but the cups fits well. Cups slightly too wide by about half inch (I have average roots) but the height is perfect. I'd say this CHP would work for people needing shallow but not necessarily really wide cups in my size range. What I love though about this bra is the gore height. It's shorter than British balconettes or half-cups that I've tried and is great because I have relatively close-set breasts. Straps could be slightly narrower but still doable for me.

Appearance-wise, it's OK except for the (obnoxiously) large bows on straps. There's an interesting crimped ribbon feature on the band and there's lace on the top of the cups (shows under thin shirts though). I quite like this bra but the one thing I would add is pockets for cookies because I have very asymmetrical breasts.

Edit: I forgot to add that I love the fact that there are 4 columns of eyes on the band. The straps are also fully adjustable.

• Just commenting because this style is (to me) so much cuter in a smaller size range--I remember seeing it in my post-baby size and thinking it was too plain but the proportional surface of the lace and ribbon embellishment in this size range makes it so indulgent and beautiful. I can see how the size of the bows could be annoying if they end up right in your armpit though. It's like a pretty bra with a built-in Tickle Me Elmo :-/
