    32FF

    Didn't fit

    ORANGE/WHITE - Band is much more comfortable than the same bra in purple. Cute; gives a round uplifted shape. Under wires stab me so hard under the arms - absolutely can't wear it. I had to go braless after wearing the Lucy for one day because my arm pits were so irritated/inflamed/RAW.

    PURPLE - Band is tight and scratchy, more so than my Lucy in the orange/white colorway. Cute; gives a round uplifted shape. Under wires stab me so hard under the arms - absolutely can't wear it. I had to go braless after wearing the Lucy for one day because my arm pits were so irritated/inflamed/RAW.

    30E

    Didn't fit

    This bra is so so pretty! Everything fits nicely except the cups. I think the cut is just wrong for my FOT girls. It also accentuates their unevenness. But the bra itself is gorgeous https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> The band did feel a little too tight for a 30, more like a 26/28. But it's made of very strong, sturdy sheer mesh and might work better with FOB and a narrow root.

    Didn't fit

    This is my best-fitting bra. It has fully-adjustable straps for my short frame, The band is quite snug on the loosest hook, the stretchy lower cup accommodates my differently-sized, deflated, soft, full-on-bottom tissue, providing a nice round shape. And the lace top cup lays flat with no gaping! But the gore is a bit too wide and a bit too short. The wire on my bigger side gets pushed onto my breast tissue, wich tries to escape the lace upper cup where it meete the gore. I get a wee bit of quad-boob where the undercup meets the lace. My tissue is soft enough that it escapes the ... lace as i move about walking, so i find myself adjusting during the day. Perhaps my FOB breasts force it down because it does not have a full band, has narrow straps and only has two hooks? Also, the material on the underwires is very scratchy. Excepting the issue of gravity and just how much a bra with these construction issues can provide all-day support, the comfort issues may well resolve after it breaks in.

    30FF

    Fits

    I am just starting to find my correct bra size and this is probably my best fitting bra so far. Based on my measurements I am around a 30FF to 30G. This bra is not a bad fit for me but does not feel quite right either. Something about it causes it to become uncomfortable by the end of the day, likely the under wires digging in a bit. I have some slight quad boob, not at the top of the cups, which if anything gap slightly, but at the horizontal seam where the upper lace/mesh section meets the cup. It is not happening all the time but ... comes and goes probably based on how I am standing. A 30F was much too small and 30G was way too big. I may just be on between sizes or this bra is not good for my shape. I would say I'm probably even to slightly fuller on bottom from what I can tell. This bra is okay for thicker tops but I cannot wear it with thin tops due to nipple show through and the fit issues. I will keep it but I'm still looking for a better more comfortable fit.

    • If your principal fit issue is those "quadboobing" where upper lace and mesh section meets, I would sugest trying to carefully stretch the seam while wet. It worked wonders on my Cleo Marcie Balconnet Bra (6831) :)

    • Thank you for the suggestion, I just bought it so I haven't washed it yet, but I will definitely try that!

    32F

    Hasn't set fit

    I have not worn this bra yet. It is more for show, not for go. Will wear on a sexy night date! It's a tad too small in the cups to wear under anything very fitted

    32F

    Didn't fit

    - Good lower projection
    - Nice narrow wires
    - Tight along the top of the cup, so not a lot of forgiveness for FOT breasts (if it were looser or more stretchy, I could get away with wearing this cup because the quad-boob I get is so minimal - however, since it is NOT forgiving, the small amount of quad-boob I get will not go away)
    - Tight band. It fits, and wouldn't bother me throughout the day, but I'd like a little more comfort. Also, the band is not very stretchy, so when I fasten it, the wires are warped to be wider than they actually are.
    - I love the neon orange embroidery! <3

    36F

    Didn't fit

    I wish I knew how to describe what's wrong with this bra! It looks ok (I have the white and orange colorway, and I like it) and it gives a nice rounded shape, but it's like the fabric is so thin that when I wear the bra there's always underwire stabbing me *somewhere*. I think the gore is slightly too wide for me, and maybe the underwires are too high under the arms? I'm usually a 34FF and I bought the Lucy in a 36F because I was warned it ran small, but I maybe should have tried a 36E instead -- my bigger breast fills the cup almost perfectly, but there's wrinkling along the lace with the smaller boob.

    32E

    Didn't fit

    At the time I ordered this bra off another bratabase user, I was a bit in between sizes, with some minor gapping along the top edge of the cup in my 32F Lucy. But with regular fluctuations in weight and hormones, the 32E ends up being a bit too small more often than not, with some unsavory quad-boob effect, particularly on my left side. That said, the bra itself is lovely as usual - I love the floral lace along the top edge of the cup, the shape in general, and the nice snug band. Overall, I would highly recommend this bra to anyone looking for a nice round shape in an unlined bra, with the caveat that the size has to be spot-on, since the fabric has zero stretch. (I almost wish that the top lace HAD stretch, which would reduce both gapping and quad-boob for those with different size boobs/fluctuations in size.)

    36FF

    Didn't fit

    Thought it was too small but it's just the wrong cut for me. Not supportive enough for my heavy breasts. The material too thin and elastic, the seams dent into soft tissue, underwires too narrow, I can't fill the bottom of the cups. The material feels a bit scrachy.
