This is my first order with Avocado and I have to say that I'm very pleased with the fit of this brand on me. It really is designed for narrow (but not too narrow) breasts that are very projected, especially from the centre gore. The straps aren't too thick - the band is supportive and comfortable with 3 hooks and eyes. The wires aren't outrageously strong, truth be told. While construction is good, the soft wires really undermine the support. If your breasts are heavy, it might not be the best for you. About the Essentia specifically - the band is a bit loose, IMO, for size. Mind you, I did size up in the band because I'd heard it runs tight. I'd go down to a 70 next time (and up a cup size). The depth of this is perfect. Very deep especially at the centre gore. The fabric is lovely and soft. The colour is a deep caramel shade. Would be attractive on many skin colours. Great neutral bra that isn't boring and the shape is great.

This bra is not owned any more
