This is such a beautiful bra. The colours are pastel-soft and, honestly, simply *chef's kiss*.

More importantly--it fits!!!

I have average to slightly wide-ish roots, and the cup width on this one fits me really well. Again, average to slightly tall roots, and the cup and side wing heights work well for me. My biggest fit issues are usually to do with the softness of my tissue, and I sized down 2 cups from my calculator size for this bra. One cup size up gives slight wrinkling in the cups and is not shallow enough to support my boobs; this one is more annoying to put on initially but a ... LOT more supportive. However, there's the higher side panel thingy (?) that presses the tiniest bit into my breast tissue when I exhale. Not enough to create any quadding or be uncomfortable, but notable enough to mention in case anyone else is trying to decide between two cup sizes for this bra. It's helpful in 'guiding' inwards my slightly splayed boobs though.

The strap width is narrow enough for me, and I must admit I thought all straps were doomed to fall from my sloping shoulders before this bra, so a pleasant surprise I guess. I'm a big fan of the plunge/balcony hybrid type of bras for this reason and will probably be investing in another one of this model if a nice colour gets released in the future https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

The current only issue is band tightness (after like, a few hours of wear and very bad posture anyways), but easily dealt with with an extender. I'm also center full and the gore is a bit wider than I'd like, but it doesn't really affect the fit/wearability/comfort much at all which is nice. The stretch lace has that elastic band that I was worried would create quadding but it ended up being alright for me (even fullness but soft tissue so functionally FOB).
