This bra is *beautiful*. I love the sheen on it and the lace detailing. The material is stretchy in comparison to other bras. I was a bit worried as I haven't tried a 28 band before but I must say it is nice. It's definitely tighter than the 30 band, but still tolerable (as sometimes I feel like the 30 might be too big). I enjoy the thicker straps and band. I fill out the cup well after swoop and scoop. It's comfortable and feels nice on the skin. In general, a good bra to have. I'm excited to wear it more!

The band on this bra definitely runs tight, stretching just over 28" whereas my 65G Chamade stretches to 30." I was only a little bit disappointed to find that Amber isn't really gold as it's described on Avocado's website... in person it's more of a caramel-beige color with a slight sheen; it could be a great neutral for someone with tan skin. The wings and upper portion of the cup are sheer mesh with beautiful swirl embroidery. The cup really doesn't have much stretch, and I think very FoB shapes might struggle to fill out the upper section. The gore also has a keyhole detail covered with the same sheer mesh. The bra is a little more full coverage than I would expect for a half-cup; to me it almost looks more like a traditional balconette, although it does give a high, round purple shape from the side.

Didn't fit

I finally got the perfume smell out of this bra enough to give it a real try! (It came from the manufacturer with a perfume sachet, and it took me forever to get the scent out.)

This fits completely opposite to my EMs: wide and shallow. It doesn't have enough immediate projection at the bottom of the cup or at the center. I'm actually astonished that the gore tacks completely, because usually with cups that feel wide and shallow and gores that are this high, I don't get tacking, at least not at the top.

This basically feels like a minimizer on me.

As the band is on the snug side and the wires are very flexible, I'm going to try it with an extender and see if that changes the feel of the cup at all. From the measurements the cup shouldn't feel so wide, so I'm thinking their shape is being distorted by the tightness of the band.
