Fits
This is the only bra that has ever fit me out-of-the-box. I need shallow, wide bras but cannot wear balconettes. My breasts are very close-set (pinky-tip just fits in-between), so I almost always need to narrow the gore of a bra by taking in the gore or even just removing it and sewing the inner edges of the cups together. This bra basically has no center gore at all; it's kind of just a continuation of the wire channel that connects the cups. The wires are extremely shallow, wide curves, and there is room to move them around in the channel to where you want them. Even though there is not much wire going up the outside of the cup, there is added fabric there that provides side support.
I also would prefer a 28 band, but those are hard to find in the US for a reasonable price. I usually take in 30 bands and still wear them on the tightest hook. This bra's band is tight and study enough for me to wear on the tightest hook without alteration (27.25 snug underbust, 26.75 BTT).
Due to the thicker fabric- kind of a satin swoosh- that goes from the outer edge of the cup and underneath about 3/4 of the way, this bra kind of lifts you in and up. This sounds good, but it is a little too much and the shape ends up being slightly pointy as a result. It's not that noticeable, but it's not my preference.
It's pretty in a kind of bridal way. I am not much of a lace-and-satin type, so I wish I could find a shallow gore-less bra in a plainer design that wouldn't show under t-shirts (and with a 28 band. I'm hunting...). However, I am just glad that I didn't have to pay for something that I needed to basically re-sew immediately, which is how it usually goes.
About sizing... I usually wear a 30d (30dd in very shallow bras), and the US size is listed as 30d. I have no idea why M&S seems to think that a UK 30dd is a US30d, so I honestly don't know what the size of this bra really is.
If you are shallow and close-set, definitely give this a try!
