Literally just realised that CC uses their own sizing system - no doubles except D - so it's no wonder this bra is two sizes too small in the cup. Incredibly pretty - lovely blush coloured lace with multiple black bows that add a boudoir-y touch and keep it from being too sweet. Band is great, nice and firm. 4 rows of hooks. Fits pretty much like a 20G I used to own, so I would say that as long as you keep City Chic's sizing in mind, the fit is true.
Great strapless bra! These kind of bras are never comfortable for me but this one didn't bothered me that much https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> It looked very good, it stayed up and support my boobs 100 %. The cups have non removable push up pads -- but this is the only negative thing I can think of. Now the bra is too small for me so I have to find one with bigger cups and band.
I bought this balconette-style bra off of Nordstrom for the pretty design and the sale price. I was impressed to see the sizing go up to a 44E, since 40+ bands can be harder to find. It was listed as a 14G (6D), but given AUS vs UK sizing I figured the sizing to be a UK 36FF. The band, though only 3 hooks, was very wide and supportive. It was also by far the tightest 36 band I'd ever tried, measuring only 34" fully stretched! The wires were a little wide for me, but didn't seem overly wide for the style and size range. The cups had very little immediate projection, and my FoB boobs crushed the bottom of the cups immediately. I don't think sizing up in the band to get the bigger cup size was going to help that. This bra would be worth a look for those who are shallow or full on top, or who need a larger band in CC's cup size range.
Sounds lovely! I hope you will post photos, too :-)
