I got this just before my period and all out PMS weight and it fit just ok I think I was in the DD range but that one didn't work for me (I think I was coming out of the cups still at the sides, I think I have some migration back now). It was comfy enough that I almost wanted to just fall asleep in it ha! I liked that it caught all my under arm stuff, the thing I didn't like too much though was there was still a little room in the bottom of the cups for me. The other thing was that the lace ... part of the cup didn't seem to quite cover everything there was a smidge of peeking nip, not enough to really notice though. Now all out PMS weight I'm measuring somewhere in the F or FF range (haven't tried any on yet) and this is filling out a little better maybe a little tight in the under arm, way less wrinkling at the bottom of the cup. It's just not quite a good enough fit that I want to keep it and certainly too expensive to keep for just one week a month. I do like that it seems to minimize my bust since I might want some thing with that look for certain events, so if I could find it in a better fit for a cheaper price or if I could find something like it...

I think it runs small. Even though it's a push-up I've got massive quad boob. Otherwise I love it.

I like that I can wear it under low-cut tops. The ribbed straps were a little itchy at first but softened up after a few wears and watches. My softer breasts to fall out a bit in the center a bit, which is my standard issue with plunges, but is not too bad, thanks to the bit of elastic in the lace along the top of the cup. The band does seem pretty stretchy.

This is probably my most versatile bra right now, in terms of what I can wear it under, as it is really comfortable, provides surprisingly good nipple coverage for an unmolded bra and does not show through most shirts.

My experiments in Chantelle have been interesting and enlightening. I find that I am somewhere in between their F and E cups right now (some day my weight will stop fluctuating, but today is not that day.)

In the C chic style, I could maybe go down to the E, due to the fact that there is some empty space on the sides of the cup and there is a little bit of an armpit-cutoff going on (very minor, enough to note but not enough to ruin my experience with the bra) However, having tried on the plunge in an E on a fuller day, I noted ... that it can cause some mild quad-boobing. Maybe I ought to have one of each depending on what sort of day my boobs are having. I really like the shape that this bra gives, it's nicely rounded from the side.

Style-wise, this is a pretty straight-forward quality bra. It has the same subtle embroidered pattern as the other C chic bras, sexy mesh at the top of the cups, and a little jeweled detail on the center gore. It seems good for day-to-day use, although I wish I'd nabbed it in a different color since I already have a black mesh bra which fulfills this niche (my beloved Claudette Paramour Underwire Bra (101015008) ) but I suppose it's good to have multiples. I kind of wish the gore were a little higher? I just feel like it doesn't need to be that low, but I guess "plunging" is serious business. I generally don't care about gores one way or another because I have wide-set boobs and never have any issues with them. I guess I would just feel more secure.

The fit on this one is way off for my boob shape. I get both quadboobing and baggy fabric at the top, as there's a strangely tight band of lace right at the top edge; the wire doesn't sit anywhere close to my inframammary fold; the band rides up (though not as much as some bras, due to the three-hook column); and worst of all, the wire is just way way waaaay too wide for my root. It seems like it's about as wide as some Curvy Kate bras.

A beautiful bra, but definitely not for my boobs.

I don't care for this bra because the cups were not full enough for my liking. And the 38 band was a little snug. I would have bought a 40D except Nordstrom only had up to a 38DD which is the closest sister size for me. Anyway, I returned the bra for a refund of $68 which I'll use on the next bra that I can find that fits and I like.
The C-chic is a quality bra, well-made and really pretty. I just wish the cups were more full-coverage. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

All in all a good bra. comfortable, good all around fit. Nothing special, but functional basic bra for everday wear.

I love the way this bra looks, its very sexy. Fit was good. I was not poked by underwire. Fits well against my armpit. Gore was a good width for me, not uncomfortable.
One of my boobs is larger than the other and that side had a very slight overage over the top of the bra, but only after excessive jumping and movement.
Would recommend bra to others of similar size and shape.

This bra looks amazing, keeps your boobs restrained, but also soft to the touch. I love it, it's one of my favorites.

Loved the C Chic so much that I went back and bought another one when I returned my other Nordstrom bras, this one in purple and on sale!
