I thought this bra would be a close fit, it's the sister size to my usual 32D. The cup top tacks the way it should, but I can feel a unfilled bubble all through the top of the molded cup.
The shape is too projected for me, and the gore is to wide. My breast tissue isn't being pushed front and center, like it should be. There is no support anywhere in this bra, and even my sewing machine can't fix it.
I have FOB, narrow yet tall roots, and almost pendulous breasts. Most of the time, I can fill the bottom of a bra but leave a ton of gapping in the top, or the sides are too wide and high to be comfortable. This bra fits me near perfect. I have a touch of gapping on my smaller breast, but nothing horrible. I've been measured to wear a 36DDD/E, but with my shape and soft tissue I don't always fill them well. For this I went down to a 36DD and it was exactly what I needed. Very comfortable to wear, doesn't dig into me, keeps my breasts front and center, and very pretty to wear. The band is a little stretchy, so if you prefer a tighter fit you might need to go down a band size.
This bra either is the complete wrong shape for me or completely the wrong size, and I'm not certain which. I have another b.tempted bra in another model in a 32B that seems to fit in the cups but is way too large in the band. Oh my! It's a very cute bra though, and I wish I could make it work for me.
I really like the way this bra looks. It's very cute, the construction is nice. Next time I would have gotten a 30C (or even a 28D) instead of a 32B. This is because the band is a LOT stretchier than other 32 bands I've worn. I think my ideal size is somewhere around a 30C, so I have to wear this bra on the last hook, and even then I feel like the band rides up a bit during the day and moves around just a bit too much. I also feel like the centre gore might be too wide for me, but I have that problem with most bras.
I didn't love the bra. It fit okay on the inside of the cup with no spillage, but cut into the upper/outside area of my bigger boob and gapped at the top of my smaller boob. Band was super stretchy and felt too big. It was definitely comfortable and would likely work well with shallow boobs. Definitely did not push-up anything.
Good coverage for shallow, wide set breasts. Has removable pad in the outside bottom of the cup. Wing height is a little small for my taste, but still functional. Straps are generous length but only adjust halfway.
Kept this one as I can adjust the band tension and adjusted top of cups to fit my body shape.
I love this bra, it is very pretty and the leopard print detailing is quite nice, it just does not fit. The straps don't adjust short enough so I had to pull the sliders over the decorative parts of the straps to get them to work. The band is too big, but is very elastic so the issue of riding up in the back is actually rather minimal. The cups are very large, I would say larger than most 32DD cups by around one cup size (I can fit the cups of my other 32DD bras inside this bras cups and have 1" of cup extra).
While this bra looks OK, it doesn't feel right. I like the unusual design and the bright color, but the fit is off. The gore is too wide, causing an "east-west" feeling. This, coupled with a very stretchy band, means there isn't much support to speak of. This bra reminds me very much of the Calvin Klein bras I've tried: springy, stretchy bands and straps, wide cup separation, little support (and no lift). Because of the lack of lift, it makes me look flat, and naturally at my size I don't appreciate that.
On a side note, why did they use dyed-to-match hardware in the back, and metallic in the front?
I like this bra pretty well, but it's not perfect. I wear it without straps under sundresses and low-cut tops, and it does the trick there of keeping me covered without showing. The band technically fits, but it feels a little tight; when I take the bra off there are red marks all the way around. Even so, sometimes I feel like it's slipped just a little and want to sneak away to the bathroom and check. The line at the top of the cup is not a perfect match for my shape, but it's good enough. It angles in just a little too much for my shallow boobs, especially at the sides. On the positive side, the simple, sleek style is very attractive (dh agrees strongly!). I have never had a strapless bra that came even this close to a good fit -- even with its faults it's comfortable and secure enough that I'm going to to try it for a night out dancing. (I'll update this review afterwards.)
Measured myself as a 36E in UK sizing, so I got this in a 36DD US size and it is great so far (I wore 36B for years, never realizing that shallow does not mean small!). It took a few days to get used to the new size, but it is extremely comfortable and doesn't poke anywhere. My shape is shallow with a wide root. My only complaint is the fabric sits higher than I'm used to under the arms and at the gore, so it does peek out under some sleeveless shirts.
Overall the bra is a little wide, cuts into my underarms where the strap and cup meet. There is some gaping at the cup. band is comfortable and seems to run true to size.
So the neon. green. is what grabbed my eye about this bra.
I like neon green. This is also my first padded/molded cup bra ever. That presents, it turns out, new issues. The cups fit (a little low if the mesh layer wasn't there, but they fit. Thank you stretch mesh), but they feel wide. Like since it's molded the cups are all "we don't care that the front of this bra is now wider than you, this is where we are going." So that gets awkward after a few hours.
It's still fairly comfortable, just it makes me very aware. It'd work better on someone generally broader across the front than I am.
Nice smooth fit. Band fits and stays put, but is very stretchy. I could size down to a 30" band if it were available. Fits my narrow shoulders very well. The very top of the cup turns inward slightly instead of outward towards the my armpits. This is something I always look for to keep the straps from digging into my armpits. The straps are fully adjustable
I would like to find a lined/molded version with the same fit.
Great support, a bit stiff. The fabric inside the cup where the strap attaches is scratchy on my boob. I'd send it back and get a 30DDD, but this is already a second try from when I ordered on BareNecessities and the 30D CK bra was clearly too small. At this point I don't want to pay any more for shipping on returns and need a bra now since my stupid VS bra's underwire just stabbed me and the 32" band was quickly stretching out on me anyway.
I actually am hoping to obtain this bra in all the colors. I've only had it a couple days but it's really really comfortable and supercute. It's supportive without being a boob elevator or squishing the life out of my ribs. And even though it's lace it is not itchy.
I've got a weird sternum so a lot of things that should fit either hurt or are too deeply plunged for my comfort. The way the gore is on this one (with the hole in it) seems to split the difference. Would Buy Again.
