What an absolutely beautiful bra!!! The Ivory/Gold colorway is gorgeous! So feminine, with a little Victorian vibe. That being said, the fit isn't as spectacular. I normally wear a 28G, but the cups run shallow on this so I thought the GG would fit nicely. So I'm not sure if it's a matter of the cups being too big or just a shape difference, but its a pretty awkward fit.
I was shocked that the gore wasn't tacking on me, esp considering the measurements seemed just right for me. The cup width is my usual, perfect 5.5" so I'm a little confused. The wires themselves are rather long ... (I measured 11.0") so maybe I measured wrong? But they come out pretty far on the sides under my arms and they also come up high. The wing height is tall for me (4.0") and it just feels wrong. Lol. The cups are def shallow yet I'm not quite able to fill them out (Orange in a glass syndrome going on) yet my boobs would prob spill out of a G cup in this. the wires on the inside of the cup by the gore are sitting on my boobs instead of laying flat against my sternum. I do have close-set boobs so it might just be a matter of the gore being too tall for my shape (3.0"). And the straps are placed too far apart but are fully adjustable.
Even though this bra doesn't quite fit right, it is very comfy! I think I might try this in a 28G and then update my review. But if you have the right shape for this, tho I'm not exactly sure what that might be (def not close-set boobs), I would recommend this bra. The quality is fantastic and it's comfy AND pretty!!

i would suggest trying a 28H. When i get that orange in a glass feeling when i go up a cup size that goes away as there is more depth to the cup and my breast can settle down into the bra. :) just my two cents but I'm no expert by any means
