I have vertical even fullness, wide roots, and tallish roots where the tissue thins out a lot on top over a tall area.

Colorway: Teal/Gold

Purchased: NWT but secondhand

This bra doesn't work great with my root height; can't quite fill the apex and top of the cup because of the tall slope of my tissue on top. Also ends up looking pointy on me because of this.

The wires are... something. My first thought before I even fastened the bra was that I thought the cups would be way too narrow; not that they are particularly narrow in actuality, but the wires are just SO dang hard and thin I could feel them before I even put the bra on! I've never felt wires quite like this in a bra and I do not like them at all. It also digs into my sternum but I'm not sure if that is a gore height or wire issue; I usually prefer tall gores so I may just not be used to them coming up so low. Might try bending them out.

All that said though, even though it isn't a great fit for me, I LOVE the look of this bra and intend to keep it lol. I love the design and the color--this is my favorite shade of teal!

I think I might try swapping the wires out if I end up having some around that match the length and see if it is more comfortable.

The details on this bra are so cute, definitely seems well made. I never try Curvy Kate bras so I can't speak for how it compares to others.

• tiggaren I also have vertical even fullness + wide and tallish (but thinned out) roots. It's such a struggle sometimes!

• It definitely is the primary determination if something is going to fit or not lol! Shape mismatches for me are almost always "well if I still had this exact amount of tissue but my root was just an inch shorterso it distributed the tissue differently, I would fill everything out perfectly!" lol. For me the Cleo Lily ended up being my perfect bra :) I would try it if you haven't yet!!

• I know exactly what you mean!! Ughhh But oh man, I'll have to try the Cleo Lily in that case! Thanks for taking the time to suggest it!
