Didn't fit

Not sure why everyone keeps insisting this bra is great for immediate projection, unless we have very different definitions of the concept! The gore and straps were too wide for me and I had lots of wrinkling and straining at the bottom of the cup. It's one of the most shallow-at-bottom bras I've ever tried! In fact, it forced my breasts up so high my nipples were practically staring at the ceiling! I'm seriously baffled by all the recs for it for people who are FOB and need massive amounts of immediate projection.

I could see it offering a really nice, forward-facing shape for someone who's not quite so FOB/immediately projected, but it didn't work for me at all.

I also purchased the matching briefs in 16/XL. They fit similar to a US 16/XL, maybe on the 14/16 side. I am on the 16/18 side of 16, and they fit me comfortably but gave me a muffin top. I think the problem was with the cut, but a 2XL might have fit better if a bit more covering across my butt.

Black colorway
