    This bra is sooooo pretty. When I ordered it online, I had such high hopes. I love the detail of the dark navy color, cute little white birds, and red ribbon. Absolutely gorgeous.

    Now, I think the bra mostly fit, but it made me look like the comic book character Tank Girl with the torpedoes on her chest. I even tried putting a shirt on over it to see what the shape was like under clothes and it was still super obvious. There was bulging on the sides, under the fabric because there is very minimal structure there. The center gore laid flat (I have never had that happen ... before) but was very high up, more than I am used to normally. Since I am full-on bottom with a more tuberous shape, the cups were filled out mostly on bottom, leaving the top a tad bit loose.

    I am especially bummed because I planned on getting the matching underwear if it fit because I love the print so much. On the positive side, I let my best friend try it on and it pretty much perfectly fits her, and she has never had a bra that perfectly fit before. She spent a whole hour running up and down the hallways and jumping to test the fit more and more because for once she wasn't having major overspill. I was just a tad bit sad and jealous but I am very happy for her. It may help that she has a much rounder, full-on-top shape. I would not recommend this bra for anyone that has full-on-bottom and/or a tuberous shape.

    I own the the Juna balconette bra in nude.

    The design is cute and simple, with floral/dotted lace trim and a little bow--everything in the same shade of warm tan. The cups are soft, lightly padded, and very comfortable.

    The band rolls and rides up no matter how often I readjust it. The cups create quadraboobs big enough to need their own bra, and breast tissue extends painfully below the underwire. I guess you could call this the "sextupleboob" phenomenon.

    I might recommend this bra to someone whose measurements it suited, but that someone is definitely not me.

    This bra fits pretty well. I have not worn it for a whole day yet but I like the shape it gives me. The cups are a little big at the top causing some wrinkling but not a lot. When I swoop and scoop the cups are much fuller but the tissue sneaks out as I move around. Fits pretty well. It is a step in the right direction.

    This is my first bra in what should be my correct size. The band is snug feeling but it rolls up. I also can stretch it fairly far away from my body. The underwires are a little too narrow for me I think because they pulled out of their channel a little on the side under my arm. I really like the soft cups. I have only ever worn padded bras until now. I may never go back! This bra doesn't fit as well as I hoped it would but it sure fits better than the 38DD that I was wearing before!

    loved the width of the wires, shape it gave me and color (a very pretty bright purple) but there was such obvious quadboob I had to return it.

    Fits similar to the @Cleo Lucy. At the end of the night the underwire does poke into my armpit area, however is very comfortable until then. It also gives me a great shape.

    This bra is great on me until the end of the night. At the end the underwire is poking into my underarm area. Otherwise very comfortable. The band may also be a bit big, however I was uncomfortable in the sister size 34G. This brand of bras seems to give me the best shape.

    hmm.. not sure why it says this did not fit. Other than it runs a bit tight in the band and thus I said I can do it up..but feels a bit tight. I have a bra extender on it- now..hope to stretch it a bit. As its a great bra.

    I love the fit. gives a beautifully rounded(but not fake) shape. the wings on the side on me could do to be a little higher. But that and the tightness of the band are the only things I'd change if had a choice. I wasn't sure if I was keen on the big embroidered bows at the top of the cup.. but I like the fit so much, I overlook it.. and they actually look better in reality.

    For my measurements, the cups are too small. The material is smooth to the touch and would probably be great under clothes.
