As with any Braologie bra, the fact that the center gore doesn't tack should not be interpreted as a poor fit. The size is also my estimate, as the bra is unlabeled.
As I already described the first Braologie Full Coverage bra I tried in some detail, I will simply note what's different about the second one. This time I was given some removable pads and an extender, and a larger size. Unfortunately this is much too large for me (as can be seen by my estimate). There is a lot of spare room in the cups. This bra is so large on me ... that I don't feel that the pictures of me wearing it do it any justice (I've only added them to compare against the previous Braologie bra I added). I look like anyone would look when wearing a bra that is far too large.
The construction of the bra seems much better than the last one, which had a manufacturing fault. The side boning is fine. The pads are a bit tricky to position as there is only one correct way to do it: the seams should be closer together near the underwire and further apart toward the top of the cup, and the longer side of the pad should point toward the armpit. Braologie sent me a picture showing how to position the pads, and it's a good thing they did. Perhaps I'm a little spoiled with Ewa Michalak's removable padding, but I found that the open pouch didn't hold them in place very well as I was hoisting the bra into position.
Once again, I cannot fault Braologie's customer service. After seeing how the bra fit, they also recognized that this was not what they were aiming for, and they suggested that I return the bra for a full refund. As this is not the recommended model (they strongly suggest that you try the Lacie bra instead if you are able), my failure to fit a Braologie bra doesn't say anything about the primary model they support.
