    32FF

    Used to fit

    This bra is a great everyday bra. The only part that hurts is the strap attachment a bit because the cups are too wide on me.

    This makes my boobs look WAY bigger than they really are. If you don't want to look any bigger, this probably is not your dream. I kind of feel like I'm lying when I wear it.

    It's quite closed on top. If you're FOT or tall root it will probably cut in. Quite closed near the gore too, separates nicely but if you need room there this isn't your bra.

    This shape has a bit more of a peak than the Arizona; not quite ... as round. The band is also a little tighter than the Arizona.

    I took pics with 2 different shirts to test their claim of the flat seams not showing under clothing. Not quite true. Under a cami or under stretch fabric, they show. Should be fine with most others though.

    Overall I think this is the best for someone FOB, wide rooted, and projected. It gives a nice rounded with a peak shape, good lift, and maximizes size.

    Didn't fit

    Me: 30F/32E. Center full, close set, relatively even when supported, tall-ish roots. Not particularly narrow - average to wide roots. Soft tissue. Shoulders are on the slightly narrow side so some balconettes have straps that are too wide for me.

    This bra: Weird. Just... weird. Scuba material made a "faceted" shape instead of smooth. The wires were too narrow and came up too low under the arm. Worked okay for center fullness and close set, though, so may work better for narrower roots.

    This bra is so very cute. The color combination is awesome in the blueberry coloway, navy with a neon yellow accents. Many thanks to MamaPagan for sending it to me to try. I was pretty sure that this bra would be too big in the cups, and possibly to tight in the band, but it is always worth trying, and adding it here for bra science. This band is a very tight 28, I could barely get it hooked. The cups are too big and wrap around toward my back, and I dont fill the tops. I also think that ... it doesn't have enough immediate projection for me, I need a lot, and it wrinkles and collapses a bit at the bottom. This is a bra I would like to try in the future in a 30 band, and down a cup size, because it is nice and smooth and I think would work well as a t-shirt bra, which are hard to come by in this size range. It also seemed like it would provide good lift. I could deal with the bottom of the cup wrinkling a little in order to wear it under t-shirts.

    28FF

    Fits

    Me: Short, narrow roots, splayed, very projected at wire, average apex projection, even FOT/FOB, extremely center full. Wide on top, omega on bottom? Cleo Lily/Marcie fit me best.

    This was the second of my beige Curvy Kates. When I first tried it on, it was so close to working! The cups seemed to fit but the wires were really uncomfortable. Though it looked okay under clothes, I had uncomfortable quadding at the center, even after letting the straps out all the way (I'm only 5'4", and not low set!). I was ready to return it.

    Then I put it on an extender. ... href="https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" rel="nofollow">https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    The Curvy Kate Daily Dream runs tighter than most Cleos in the band, so consider sizing up. The cups have good projection at the wire. The cups are fairly short and closed on top which should work well for short rooted and FOB people. Tall rooted people might be able to make it work by letting out the straps. It probably won't work for the very FOT. The wings are low, which I like.

    The stiffness of padding and thickness of the upper ridge is between that of Comexim and Cleo Mimi. Though a rounded profile, the bra is a little more East-West than Cleo, or, to put it another way, less torpedo-like. I'm okay with this.

    It's prettier than in the pictures. I'll try to remedy that when I have time and daylight.

    30G

    Didn't fit

    This bra is so comfortable! The gore is a revalation compared to Panache - it doesn't dig in at all! The cups are covered with very soft material and I like the 3 hook fastening, it feels really secure but not tight. It provides very good uplift, which is great for me because I have low set boobs. I had to go up a cup - I'm normally 30FF - so definitely order a larger cup size in this style. EDIT: the wires are slightly too wide for my shape (I'm not particularly narrow). The gore is still lovely and comfortable though https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    32H

    Used to fit

    I was just so surprised by this bra! The wires are much narrower than any other CK I've tried and the wings and cups are lower, too. The 32H is actually pretty true to size, if a touch long in the band. When I first got it, I found it very comfortable, but I've gained a few pounds and now have noticeable quadraboob on my larger side and the edges of the band cut in after a few hours. It's possible that sizing up to a 34H would fix things, but I fear that the wires would then be too wide.
    The seams are nice ... and flat so there's no lumpiness under clothing and the beige is a good-enough nude for my light skin. The shape is excellent. The subtle patterns on the band and the sides notch up the pretty factor without ruining it for tshirt use.
    There is a bit of flattening on the bra at the bottom of the cups because it's a little shallower than I am, and the wires are still wider than I need, but it totally works.
    It appears to be well-constructed of sturdy materials.

    34HH

    Fits

    normally wear Curvy Kate in a 34HH or Polish brands in 80HH/80M

    initial try on/impressions
    the biscotti is a very yellow beige. materials seem basic, not super cheap but not luxurious or high quality.
    Initial fit. everything fits fairly comfortably. band and cup volume seem about the right size although I am more center set than this is designed. This isnt super significant and is almost to the point I dont have to reposition myself east/west to fit. I dont think this would not need a lot of repositioning thought the day, but would need some. The wires do not follow my root- particularly it is wider than me along the ... outer sides. I have Omega roots, so this isnt really surprising, and still fits my tissue fairly well. The wires arent pinching or hurting where they sit.
    I dont have pain in my sternum from trying this on, which is one of my normal fit issues.
    There is a lot of wrinkling in the outer fabric over the cup foam. I dont think it's due to fit, I think it's a construction quality issue. These wrinkles are not visible though my thin t-shirt, however the seams definitely are. The padding is enough to minimize but not fully conceal my nipple bumps.

    So far it seems like this might be an ok basic daily bra without the hassle of importing from Poland. Will have to wear for longer to make sure there arent fit issues.
    What I would like more: First, there should at least be a bit more quality control where the outer fabric isnt wrinkling. Ideally I would prefer some method to smooth the seams out where they arent visible under a shirt. I still cant find a bra to wear under thin light color shirts that is both smooth enough to not show seams, beige to not show color, and padded enough to not show nipple bumps. I hope this is sturdy enough to hold up in a rotation of normal daily bras.

    32G

    Didn't fit

    This is a padded bra with 3 different segments in the cup. The fabric is soft and stretchy not unlike a bikini. For me personally the seams are a bit too noticable under a t-shirt. I was surprised this bra "sort of" fits me considering it looks a lot bigger than bras I currently own. However it definitely is not the right bra for me. The cups gape at the top particularly for my smaller breast. The gore floats and also shifts to either breast, so I guess it's too wide for me. When I position the straps as intended they are very close to falling off my shoulders.

    34E

    Didn't fit

    Bought to help work out my size. My comments for reference:
    - Band: Tight, need to wear with 1 x extender. Might consider 36DD in this biscotti colourway.
    - Cup: Fits good, no issues!
    - Shape: Round shape but looking at the side profile, my boobs seem to sit quite low on my chest. Could just be that I am low-set.
    - Wing height: Too short/ does not include boning which doesn't give enough support for my boobs on the side. Shape (from top) is more of an upside down 'W' rather than an 'M' shape.
