    34GG

    Hasn't set fit

    Pretty decent fit but not good enough to keep. I tried a 34g and gg. The larger bra fit the best but I got some gaping at the top. Also, something was a bit off with the shape for me although it's worked well for lots of others.

    34H

    Didn't fit

    I didn't like this color as much as I thought I would, but it's still cute. Love the little yellow details! I feel like the shape is good on me until the top of the cup, and then there's just all this empty space, wrinkling is an inadequate term! I will probably try this one in the same band but a cup (or maybe even 2!) smaller.

    30HH

    Hasn't set fit

    I tried this bra as I had read it was similar to the discontinued Cleo Lily, which I like. The measurements seemed close, but this bra definitely isn't as good as Lily for me. I have quadding even on my smaller side, and really obvious quadding on the larger. This bra seems to be too shallow at the bottom, next to the underwire, so the wires can't get into my IMF. That leads to wrinkles at the bottom of the cup and overspill at the top. The band and straps also feel rough and irritate my skin, though maybe that would be better after washing the bra. I think tall people would have a problem with the straps, as I am really short and I was most comfortable with the straps not much shorter than their longest setting.

    30G

    Didn't fit

    Short, slightly narrow, projected, close set, center full, even breasts....

    This purple is beautiful!! It is significantly more rich, saturated, and vibrant than it appears online. I wish I had not avoided this color because of the unflattering internet images. If you appreciate purple, you may want to add Florence to your collection. Intense colors are my favorite, and purple Florence does not disappoint. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

    Last night, I was certain I was returning Florence. She looked huge on my small breasts. This morning, she fits well. Overnight, my breasts increased 1 cup size. Yikes. The 30FF Black Florence was a bit small. This bra ... relieves the irritation I felt around the outer edges of my root: it is wider. Surprisingly, 30G Purple Florence feels a bit less projected than the 30FF Black Florence. It could be related to the 30G Florence being a bit too big. I'll wear her again next week when my breasts are larger and know for certain how the immediate projection compares.

    Today, I wore 30FF Dreamcatcher for nine hours. And, I was contemplating, as I often do, eliminating underwire bras from my wardrobe forever. Immediately upon my return home, I removed 30FF Dreamcatcher and replaced her with 30G Florence. Sigh. Three hours later, I remain comfortable in Florence. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> Like 30FF Florence, this is a very comfortable bra.

    For a few more specific details, see my review of 30FF Florence: http://www.bratabase.com/bra/di828/

    It is possible Florence will join an elite group of two bras that I consider my most comfortable: CK Ellace and CK Shockwave Bikini. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

    38J

    Fits

    This bra was comfortable, but felt less stable than other bras. The band was very stretchy and I probably didn't need an extender but I didn't want to stretch the band out of shape. The fit was good, the wires were nice and narrow. The mesh was not as stiff as the Cabaret, and therefore it felt a bit flimsier. It is transparent in the cup and on the embroidered top portion. Because of this, and because the seams , embroidery, and my nipples showed through, it was not a good "nude" for me even though the pink was very close to my skin tone. It was not the nicest pink, a little too peachy gray for me. I am not keeping it.

    34FF

    Fits

    Seems to fit yet it's not the most comfortable I've tried.Fabrics are a little bit scratchy but it hasn't been washed yet.
    Shoulder straps cut in a little. Gettting a tiny bit of in-cup quadding at the horizontal seam. I am even fullness tending to slightly FOT but the wire is slipping down below my IMF so maybe it's a little shallow for me.

    34H

    Didn't fit

    I really like this bra! And it is so close to fitting. The band size is fantastic, fits sung but has lots of stretch. The cup width is perfect for my breasts. The wires do not poke on the sides. The cup size is just a tad too big, I get a minor amount of wrinkling at the top of the cup. I'm gonna see if I can try to fin it in a cup size down, because I love how the lace along the top looks and the pink is such a nice color. I'll probably return this bra if I can find it in the proper size (34GG.)

    32H

    Didn't fit

    This is the first Curvy Kate bra I've tried, as I suspected they would be too full cupped for me. I decided to give this one a try, and although it doesn't fit, it's not as far off the mark as I thought it might be. I don't quite fill the top of the cups, the centre gore digs in at the top as it's just a tad too high for me, and the straps are a bit too wide set. However, it was actually quite comfy compared to other bras I've tried, and it's convinced me to perhaps give other Curvy Kate's a try. I would say this is an extremely stretchy band and could do it up on the tightest hook, so definitely order a band size smaller than you measure.

    32H

    Didn't fit

    I usually wear a UK 32GG. I got this bra in that size and also this 32H since I've heard that some of Curvy Kate's bras run small in the cup. I would say this style runs true to size, as the cups are clearly too big for me (the GG fit better, but I had slight quadding due to my FoT boobs). The band seems to be true to size as well, and the elastic does not dig in. Slight stretch to the straps. I don't feel this style is very supportive for heavier or settled boobs. It is all mesh, and while the bottom part of the cup is 2 layers of mesh, it's still quite flimsy. Would be good for summer since it is so thin. The blush color is a good nude for fair skin. The bra I got was missing the middle row of clasps. Never encountered that before, but sometimes mistakes happen!
