Didn't fit

Boux Avenue does not clearly advertise that the padding that is standard for this style bra is removed for FF and G cups - I believe F has it - and the shop assistants seemed unaware of it. Basically the smaller cup sizes have removeable inserts that sit in pockets in the sides of the bra, but for FF and G the option to have them or not is taken. It's not just that they don't come with inserts, it's that the pocket the inserts go inside of is completely removed.

I found this really annoying since it's one of their selling points that the padding helps bring breasts more towards the middle, which is exactly what I wanted, because I'm quite wide set. Not everyone FF-G hates padding (and not everyone below FF likes it also but at least they can just take it out in this bra). It also annoys me because I reckon this choice was made under the assumption that all FF-G cup wearers have very large breasts.

I feel like a comprimise would be to include the pockets on all sizes and then have the inserts sold separate, because I equally imagine someone who doesn't not want to use the inserts wouldn't appreciate accumulating a bunch over time.

Other than the grumpiness splurged above, I found the bra fairly comfortable althought the wires poke into my sternum a bit. Like I know I'm wearing it but it doesn't cause major discomfort.
