I used to totally love Betsey Johnson bras as it's one of the few US department store brands that carries a TTS 30 band. I've tried many of the styles, but in the past always purchased a 30C. In retrospect, all of these bras were too small for me, and actually after scooping properly, I've found that 30D is a bit small as well. I should probably try a 30DD if I see it around, but unfortunately it wasn't available when I placed this order.

I didn't realize it originally, but this particular style is on the shallow side and fits noticeably shallow. I own this in 30C in two colors and this is my first purchase of the 30D. Immediately even before scooping, there's some overflow on my larger side, and once I'm fully scooped, both sides show this effect. It's also obvious from the side profile that it is too shallow, since I don't get the projection or round shape I would normally get from this style of bra.

This style is also a partial band, which tends to cause problems on my bony ribcage. Without a stable cradle, the underwires on many styles will end up digging into my ribcage. This bra is also a little bit uncomfortable, but it's tolerable. I wish it were a full band though. Heck, I wish it were just properly styled like one of my UK bras--full band, wide elastic, wide straps, and a little more projection!
