Anna Pardal fabrics are impressive: color, texture, pattern are unique and artistically combined. Florence's fabric is remarkable when considering the expense of combining this many colors. And, the print looks and feels regal. If you appreciate silky fabrics, Florence will delight your skin. Jaimie at Bra Obsessed promised Florence was the softest: I agree.

This Florence was ordered with the following alterations: overlapping gore wire, cookie pockets, and straps moved inward 2cm.

Straps: Like Hibiscus, Florence has fully adjustable straps. This is excellent news for those of us who are petite and/or high set. Moving the straps inward 2 cm also made the cup height more comfortable under ... the arm. Although the wing height is identical in Florence and Hibiscus, my underarm thoroughly preferred the Florence with straps moved inward 2cm. This is a "must have" alteration for me. However, if you are taller, you may not prefer the straps moved inward.

Cookie Pockets: Like Hibiscus (+Papillon, Geisha, and Sonia), Florence's cookie pockets are the softest, unbleached cotton. I order cookie pockets just so this blissful lining cuddles my breasts. And, like Hibiscus the addition of a cookie reduced the speed with which this slid out of my IMF. Florence may fit me better in a 65L, because it is slightly less projected at the wire (like Comexim's Geisha 3HC).

Although I thought overlapping the gore would create the perfect bra for me, it hasn't. The wire sots on top of my right breast along the base of the gore and cup. So, my close-set, projected, narrow, very short breasts will try an overlapping, narrowed gore next.

The cup height is perfect for my short roots. Jaimie shared that it "was the most closed cup of all the Anna Pardal bras." Indeed, it did fit better in height than all the other 65K/30H 3HCs I've tried so far.

This is a perfect bra for short-rooted, narrow, projected breasts that are not as close-set as mine. Order quickly as the AP fabrics are dwindling in supply. And, Jaimie at Bra Obsessed provides exceptional customer service!


For those needing more or less immediate projection in Comexim/AP 3HC, here is a list:
