34HH is my normal UK size
Racerback lace length is too tall, I am 5 ft 3 for reference. I think I'd need to be at least 2 inches taller for this to not be an issue. The strap adjustments will change the length in front, but not help a problem at the back, as the band-to-neck size is determined by the lace at the back. Too short of a person and the fastener is in the back of my neck when straps are tightened, but with lace drooping down if the buckle is in the right spot. To tall of a person would still be able to wear ... thing, but the back of the neck fastener would sit much lower on their back.
The cup isn't immediately projected enough, so there's wrinkling where my breasts try to force up and over the bottom inch to project outward. wire is about 4 fingers away from my root on my side
The clasp behind the neck is probably going to be tricky for anyone not used to that sort of thing. In case anyone reading this is wondering, the pin of one side comes from above and a 90 degree angle, slides downward, then flips to lie flat. It's easier when right in front, but very tricky to do behind my neck. I also definately got the "fiddly clasp" despite the listing I purchased from on Bravissimo's website saying "New J hook fastening means it’s easy to attach the straps at the back (no fiddly claps – yay!)"
The materials are all really soft and a wonderful quality. It makes me consider keeping a bra I know doesn't fit well, just because it's so comfortable. Im a huge texture person and this may be the nicest feeling materials I've ever come across in a bra. Quality-wise everything seems really nice. All the finishing touches on this lilac bra are done in rose gold, the bra strap metals, the hook and eyes, the back of the neck clasp. It's really nice. I also liked how they made this feminine with quality lace and beautiful colors and didnt need to add an unnecessary bow in front to cover shabby construction. I love that this is a fun color, but also functions similarly to a beige bra in that it wont show up as a stark color difference through a lighter shirt. Im really impressed and really wish the fit was a better. This might be the most comfortable not-fitting bra I've tried. If it was just too wide cups I could maybe deal with it, but the lack of immediate projection is an issue for me.
My common issues with bras are sternum pain, being close set, and nipple bumps showing. I did not have issues with any of those in this bra, although Im not sure if the thin foam would keep bumps concealed after wear.
