ABOUT THIS BRA
This is an molded, padded, plunge bra with J-hook.

Purchasing:
* $40 on Amazon with free Prime shipping & returns
* Not available with Amazon Wardrobe.
* Available in beige, black, and blue. (Other sizes have more colors.)

Band:
* One layer of a smooth, stretch knit with decorative lace overlay.
* Wing support: seaming.
* Continuous band - wires lower than wings.
* Back close with 3 columns of hooks.

Straps:
* ridged elastic with outer lacy ridges
* soft (don’t stand up on their own)
* partial adjust (limited by sliding J-hook)
* leotard back
* J-hook

Cups:
* seamless half cup (Called a plunge, but in this size, the gore is rather tall.)
* no special side support
* unpadded, soft underwire
* Inner top edge of cup is edged slightly stretchy edge banding. Outer cup edge is slightly stretchy elastic that continues to the top of the band.
* Cups are thin foam sandwiched inside a smooth, stretch, opaque knit.


ABOUT ME: petite with wide, horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts
* average projection (not shallow nor super projected)
* average-set (one finger width of space between breasts)
* wide roots (extend to the mid-axillary line)
* even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full)
* short root height, average vertical placement
* mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away)
* conical shape (but will squish to round)
* full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FoB due to short roots and soft tissue
* petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
* front (anterior) rib flares (not usually a fit issue, but I like that longlines make them disappear)


FIT DETAILS

Band:
* length: stays in place with wear, nice & snug, comfy
* wings: height good, smooth line

Gore: Tacks. Height & width fine.

Straps:
* Way too far apart. Slip, even when over tightened. The strap-cup junction is lateral to my anterior axillary line (outside of armpit crease).
* With J-hook, don’t slip but worsens tail of Spence pain.
* Adjust short enough.



Cups:
* Wires enclose all tissue AND it stays there.
* Top of cup: giant gap
* Bottom of cup: wrinkles or gaps (not enough immediate projection at wire). Wire pushed down to find more cup depth.
* Cup apex: fits (not too deep, too shallow, nor off-center)
* Outer edge of cup cuts into Tail of Spence.
* Side view: flat
* Front view: wide

ASSESSMENT & PLAN

* Horrific fit. Was having trouble with styles that were too projected, so tried a shallower style. This model is recommended for even vertical fullness and shallow-side-of-average projection. Sounded like a good match for my shape. WRONG.
* The padded cup is molded rather flat and too stiff to curve itself around the apex. The low gore and wide-set straps cannot pull the top of the cup back to the chest -- it gaps comically. Also, the cups look gigantic on my small frame.
* Too shallow. STOP.
* I would recommend this model for truly shallow boobs with average to wide shoulders. Not for shallow-side-of-average projection (nor more projected). Not for narrow shoulders.
