Didn't fit
First impression: This is a wide bra.
The band is wide (yes!), the straps are wide (yes!), the wires are wide (no!), the gore is wide (no!), everything is wide.
This is a true to size 30 band. I stretched it (fairly hard) to 78cm (30.7") and I can easily fit a fist under the band on the loosest hook. It doesn't seem to ride up too much though so I didn't mark the band as too loose.
The cups run small. I think they fit me volume-wise but are too wide and too closed on top, especially near the centre gore. It wrinkles a little on my smaller boob and quads in the middle on my bigger boob, though it's not terribly obvious.
I'm actually surprised by how much I like the colour. It's a very light ashy grey. I don't care for the pinstriped pink bow (which is also quite wide) or the heart-shaped white trim on the seam between the opaque and mesh sections (which shows under thin tops). The overall look is fairly plain but not ugly.
It's a reasonably comfortable bra but not a perfect fit and I don't think it flatters my bust. I'll hang on to it for now and see how it holds up.This bra is not owned any more
