Before I tried the Darcy, I tried its sister cut, the Juna, in a 32GG -- itself a sister size of my usual bra size, 30H. This turned out to be far too large, in both band and cups. I was unsure if I needed to go one cup size down or two, and ended up trying the Darcy down just one cup size. And it fits! The lace trimming on the cups does stick up, but the cups don't otherwise gape. The reviews I've read of Juna and its sisters disagree about what the lace means, if it doesn't lie flat. Some say that this means the ... bra doesn't fit; some say that the lace sticking up has nothing to do with fit. I cannot answer this question. In my case (wide, tall root; shallow; FOB), the cups fit well in a cup size smaller than my usual size, but the lace sticks up. My only other quibble is the gore. It presses inward to a very uncomfortable degree; I've been using a folded-up tissue as padding between the gore and my skin. I've only worn the bra a few times so far, and if it doesn't soften up I will try bending the wires.

Weirdly enough, the 2014 (Bird Print) model of the Darcy has a few differences than the 2012 version. For instance, on my 30GG there are actually two vertical seams on the cup rather than one. It looks like this isn't the case on smaller cup sizes, but it is definitely welcome on mine; I'm FOB and it helps immensely.

Another thing that I feel I should mention is that the Bird Print version is actually a semi-sheer print fabric over top of the normal cup fabric. It looks fine, but it's weird until you're used to it, and it makes the cup less smooth feeling.

Super comfortable, straps are a little too stretchy, the cups are too small for me.

This bra fits beautifully in every direction. I had to add an extender only because the loosest setting was a little *too* tight, but it'll soon stretch out not to be a problem.
This was the first bra I tried on, and I had no idea what to expect, so I initially found all of these "problems", but nope, no problems at all! (Although the straps are weirdly small; I couldn't extend them if I wanted to.)
