I love the look and feel of this bra, as well as the color, however it was too small in the cup for me. I'm a 30FF but the 30FF was too small, I had quadboob on the tops and sides. I didn't realize how full on top I was until I got this bra. I'd recommend if you're full on top, make sure to go a cup size up!
Love this bra! I have the lime colorway. Mesh is slightly scratchy, but it doesn't actually bother me when I'm wearing it, so no worries. The wires a really narrow, and I didn't really know I could wear wires that narrow. The straps are a perfect width and they fit just right under tank tops. The fit walks the line between being a FOB projected shape and a tall root shape. For whatever reason it fits my even soft breasts just right. It also walks the line between being a 30 and a 32 band. Haven't measured mine yet, but I think it stretches to about 31. ... It's a wide-set shape, what with the cups being triangular, and that doesn't usually work for me (looking at you, Natori), but the cups here are open enough that I don't really have any quad lines. The sheer fabric is VERY sheer btw, and it's alittle jarring to be able to see my nipple flatten out under my bra, and I can see skin creases sometimes, but it's also really helpful because it helps me to see when the bra is riding below my IMF and adjust accordingly before I get rib pain.

I finally found a bra that really really fits https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> I'm not thrilled with the papaya/ khaki colorway but this bra is a huge improvement for me. The straps are more centered and fit my body well. The straps cut my armpits on my other bras,not this one.This is very comfortable. My only concern is how well the mesh will hold up. It feels pretty delicate. The straps are fully adjustable. The bottom 2 sections of the cups are double lined as well as the back panels. The straps have little loops that snag easily. I snagged it hand washing.
UPDATE: The mesh is not as delicate as it seems. My bra still looks new months later. I just ordered two more of these. Wonderful fit and comfort for daily wear. I love that this bra is so comfortable and my husband loves the sheerness. Some other reviews I have read said the and stretched out quickly. I haven't experienced this a all. Love this bra. It also has a very minimizing effect.
I love the Paramour. Period, end, full stop. While this is techinally not my size, I nabbed this one because the style is discontinued, and this sister-size works with an extender. If you'd like details, refer to my 10 other glowing reviews of the Paramour.
Wonderful design and aesthetic, but not suited for projected/fot/even girls. The cup gapes and quads..it quads near the center (I have a lot of inner fullness) and gapes at the sides, where I lack fullness. This would be best for shallow girls, but man, I love how simple and clean this is!
A cute bra, just not the best with my shape. In-cup quad boob that is visible under clothes and wrinkling on the sides. Just not compatible with even/FOT, at least for me. A shame because the design is perfectly minimal and clean. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
A very pretty bra, but just not a good fit. I was advised to go up one cup size but it seems like too much. The gore doesn't tack but distorts. It may work better with slightly fuller breasts (I am a 30F). I am even/FOT.
The straps are comfortable but the adjusting..thing doesn't stay put. It slides about a half inch even when I tighten it all the way.
I LOVE them. I love the feel of them. I love the shape I get. I love how sheer they are. I love the colours.
I hate that this size is too small. The style may be the issue, but I refuse to give up. 30G, here I come.
This is the leopard/hot pink colorway: it fits a bit different than the newer models. Feels looser in the cup - but maybe that is because it has had more wear?
Love the natural shape of this bra, it works well for my bottom-heavy breasts. The elastic along the top and bottom of the band digs in more than the fabric between, but not to an unwearable extent.
I also love that the inner layer of fabric on this bra is the same type of mesh from Claudette's Mesh Dessous bra, it makes keeping dry so much easier!
After owning this bra for 9 months and wearing it nearly constantly (I know I know, bad for bras, but I only have a few that fit!) the band doesn't stay as snug as I'd like it, and the center gore doesn't stay put like it used to, but it's stood up to all the use and still wears fine.

This bra didn't fit my size or shape. Which bums me out a lot because it's my favorite for aesthetics and I love that it has 3 hooks. I have more fullness on the inner sides of my breasts and the En Dentelle Intense cups were not structured for that. They gaped on the outsides and my breast tissue spilled over in the middle. Also, I am quite short and the straps are only partly adjustable, they would have been too long for me. If the cups fit well, I would simply take in the band and shorten the straps. But, alas it wasn't meant to be.
I tried this bra on at a boutique and wasn't sure about the mesh but when I found it online for 1/2 price I decided to go for it since I knew it would fit. The bad is perfect and I ended up going for a FF cup to get slightly wider wires than the F cup that was right up against the outer side of my breast.
I might be a bit biased because I love this bra. But it's the only unpadded 3 part cup I've found that really works on my shallow boobs.
The band is a true 30, but thick and fastens with 3 hooks (yey!) the straps are fully adjustable. The cup is a 3 part with a sheer section at the top. The colours are amazing, the pink is a true 'nude' for me, and the neon yellow contrasts beautifully.
If you're like me: Narrow-average root Shallow Somewhat full on top
Then try this bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
I really wanted to try this bra as I really like the sheer look and this bra is completely sheer and feels lightweight which makes it perfect for warmer weather. I really like the colour, it's really bright and it's a colour that isn't often seen in lingerie. As much as I like the mesh look, it does feel scratchy in my hands, but when I tried it on it's not noticeable.
Fit wise, the band is just too big, but the cups fit fine (for comparison, I generally wear 30F in Panache bras). On the tightest setting, it feels not quite firm enough for my tastes. I have shallow breasts and the cups fit them well and give a nice round shape without any gaping or spilling over; however, the cups hold my breasts very close to my chest and give me a less projected look.
Claudette's smallest band (until the Spring 2013 collection comes out) is 30FF, so I bought this even though I actually wear 28G in most brands. The band fits big, as I expected, but the cups are also small. Fits more like a 30F. I ended up buying a different Claudette in 30G, and the cup is much better.
The cups in this bra are a little wide for me and somewhat shallow, but I have very bottom-heavy, narrow breasts, so this isn't really anything unusual.
The quality of the bra seems great, and I like the triple hook-and-eye and the thin straps. And of course it's lovely!
Too big for me in both cup and band, would need this in a 28F or 28FF, or a 26 (the brand doesn't make either of those sizes). Band huge for a 30, seems like a 32!
The material is best described as crunchy polyester which might soften after wash/wear, idk. 3-part cup, though gives rounded shape and sheer black look is sexy.
Bought for $58 on bareneccessities, will be returning
