Didn't fit
Based on other reviews I read here, I ordered up 2 band sizes and increased cup size as well (although I miscalculated the sister size myself and added too much). It was a complete fail. If the bands ran 2 sizes too small as indicated, a 34 should have fit me, since I'm normally a 30 band. The band on this 34E was a full 3 inches longer than any of my consistently sized 30 band bras. And the cup fit was comparably wrong. Normally a 30DDD (or 30DD at minimum), my sizing error should have had the cups a bit loose but they were so empty it was laughable.
I purchased this bra via ebay (USA) and it did have a small stain on it (was not noted in the ad), but it otherwise is in very good condition. Maybe it was well-cared-for but also often-worn and therefore the band stretched? 3 inches is a significant increase, especially if this otherwise runs extra small. I also wouldn't expect the cups to have stretched so dramatically with them being seamed / sewn in sections, though.
Lastly, I wish I had looked for other images of this color before purchasing. The photo presented in the ad was apparently brightened significantly. I thought I would be receiving an ivory bra with carnation pink lace. What I sadly discovered upon arrival was a blandly taupe bra with bright neon pinkish-orange lace ("hot coral", apparently, although that wasn't in the listing). I had previously only seen the chocolate and ivory combo and loved the look of it. What a disappointment!Hot Coral colorway
