Another bra I snagged during a Zulily sale, and yet another bra that isn't narrow or projected enough for me :') I'm getting closer to a good fit, though. I'm guessing I need around 14cm in width and somewhere upwards of 27cm depth. Hopefully Polish bras will work for me; I'm still waiting for my Comexim order to cross the ocean and fall into my loving arms. I also really want to try more Cleos.
Anyway! On to the bra itself. It's much prettier in person than in pictures. I got the Denim pattern, and the material on the cups is designed to have a faux denim look, but ... the color itself has a slight purplish hue to it. They are also (thankfully) not made out of denim, but a soft, lightly padded foam material that is pretty comfortable. The trim is a cutesy little polka design in purple, blue, and yellow that wasn't readily noticible in the pics on Zulily. It makes the bra feel youthful and summery. At 73cm stretched, the band is a bit loose for me, and has the standard 3 rows of 3 hooks. It's true the cups aren't narrow enough for me, but they're not trying to wrap around my back either (squinting at you, ck princess). It's always hard for me to tell in foam or padded cups, but I think I'm getting a bit of empty space at the bottom. I've definitely got some center quadding, because the bra closes off rather quickly and I have tall, center-full breasts. There's also this strange wrinkling at the center of the left cup, but I'm thinking that's just the result of loose top fabric? The gore tacks at the bottom, but sort of floats at the top. I believe this is due to the wire channels having a good bit of extra space in them. I try to shimmy the wires more into the gore, but it seems like my breasts push them back out towards the wings during wear, haha.
The bra is very comfy for daily wear, even given it's lack of proper fit. My breast tissue is soft-ish and well-behaved, and I don't have particularly sensitive skin, so a majority of fit issues aren't painful or irritating for me. I'm pretty happy with it, all things considered, especially given how cheap it was.
