Trying on in hopes I have a smooth, non-lacey, but padded, beige bra in my cupsize. My normal fit issues are omega roots and being close-set. I normally wear Curvy Kate in a 34HH, or Polish brands Ewa Mickalak in an 80HH or Comexim in an 80M.

Initial try on with straps styled as a regular bra. Latte colorway.
Im very centerful and have to push myself sideways into the cups a bit. The cup style being open on the inner sides doesnt really keep me held sideways in the cup. This would likely need to be adjusted often. I have some quadboob puff toward the center of the cup after a short time. The small low gore sits on my chest but is immediately painful since it has a lot of pressure but doesnt distribute pressure over more than a square inch. The band's two hooks seems odd and makes me wonder about being secure, but I think that is more because I am used to 2-3 hooks and a wider band. Hopefully it is nicer for a dress up time. If I didnt want this as a plunge, I would like the design with more inner cup coverage and a longer/wider cradle and band. Im not sure this is the best for everdays wear. The bra straps are wide-set for me. in my tail of spence area, but not immediately irriatating it. I definately think they are more designed for the racerback/weird set ups than normal wear.
Foam is on the thinner side and only partially conceals nipple bumps. Under very thin fabric the seams do show.
Latte is a darker sort of orangier beige. The little teardrop gem is already twisted out of place upon arrival. Quality-wise I would prefer no charm to a very badly-installed one.
After about five minutes of wear, my breasts are definitely pushing the bra downward and into my sternum more. tightening the straps helps, but definately increases quadboobing a lot. Also in attempting to tighten the strap while wearing, the strap unhooked. (note, I cant actually keep the straps tight enough to keep the cups from collapsing downward without the straps popping off) I'm doubting how secure this would keep someone. I doesnt really fit as a normal bra for me. Judgeing it more off the multi-way ability and not as a daily bra, I dont know that it would hold up to anything like dancing/clubbing as sort of shown in the ad's. It wouldn't keep me secure in the cups, nor would I trust the straps to not pop out when dancing. For a formal event, maybe the straps could be sewn into place. After how much they already popped out of place, I wouldnt be comfortable without sewing it, so it wouldnt be a wear different ways all the time thing. I'd essentially have to alter it each time. (Note: to swap straps, they seem secure and not just easily sliding out, I just really think the placement is really not set up to wear one straight over each shoulder and that may contribute to them popping out when worn this way, they seem to bear pressure diagonally better) I would not wear it this way over the CK Smoothie Soul plunge if I needed a smooth beige or CK High Hopes/Comexim for best fit.

Attempting an initial try on with straps crossed in an X: the cup shape definitely fits better, however on about as loose at the straps go( where it is comfortable and not having the cups collapse downward), they cut into my shoulder and underarm making weird fat bulges where I didnt even know I had enough fat to bulge. Definitely not a way I would wear this in public due to appearance. Unless I was wearing a concealing top, but if I was wearing a concealing top I could wear a much more comfortable bra.

Halter top with one bra strap, no back extender: The cups are definately shaped to be supported by a strap that dosent go straight back. I dont really like the pressure on the back of my neck to support my cups. And I'm normally very fine with swimsuits and things that put pressure on my neck. If I loosen the straps to much, my chest's weight pushes the cups down. For some reason this bra is defiantly have the straps do a lot of the support instead of having a band that supports the breasts like a bra should. The band is fitting snugly as it should, but just isn't wide enough or something, so the cups just collapse downward. The straps at the top of the cup sort of twist to dig the outside of the hook into my tail of spence/armpit. With that and the neck pressure, this is a wear to an event only thing.

halter top with back extender: did not try because the extender was in a separate bag with a hole punched throught the top/middle witht the tag atchement going through. To get it out of the bag I would have to cut the attaching loop. I didnt want to do that before deciding if Im going to return this.

I did not try it with X straps crossing in front of my neck. I cant think of a reason I would ever want that and I can already tell the cups arent really shaped to be in that direction across the front of chest or have strain in that direction since the straps are the supporting element.

There is no way this bra would work strapless.

Overall, I think this bra, sadly, tried to do too much. It would have been a great halter only bra, or a great thin band bra, but doing both and trying to throw in normal straps and try to do all the options make it do terribly at each option.

Over all:
Daily bra-fails I would not wear this any way on a daily basis.
Multi use change all the time bra- fails since there are really various combos without altering,
Special occasion bra- maybe it could be altered, but its not the best option to alter I've come across.
The foam is too thin to hide my nipple bumps fully, seams show. So it isn't a nice smooth beige bra to hide under thin fabrics. I didnt find a way to wear this where the straps are both comfortable and not making large fat bugles (which isnt normally an issue of mine with any bras).

Latte colorway

This bra is not owned any more
