    Used to fit

    The straps are a bit wide, but I'm beginning to suspect I have narrow shoulders, since I'm having this problem with literally every bra I'm trying. I love love love how wide the wires are! That's such a common complaint with CK but I'm finding it super comfortable and it makes me feel really supported and the ladies actually stay in place all day. It's comfy and breathable and delightfully vibrant. Overall it's a fantastic bra. My only complaint is that the pink ribbon is a tiny bit loose so it tends to bunch ever so slightly.

    Edit: Six months in and the underwire popped out and tried to stab me in the heart. I am somewhat unimpressed.

    This bra is not owned any more

    Fits

    Definitely fits better than the 36FF I originally tried - that one cut into the top of my boobs a little and gave me a bit of quad boob after my boobs 'settled' into the cups (at first it appeared to fit fine). Maybe because of the ribbon? I don't get quite as much uplift and the 'orb' effect I got with the smaller size, but I'd rather compromise on that then get quad boob.

    I really like this bra. I have it in the watermelon/plum colourway which is so vibrant and bright. It feels well made and good quality. It's half sheer - the bottom half has ... an extra layer of mesh but it's not totally opaque either. 3 rows of hooks which is what I prefer personally.

    The band fits well, it's fairly firm but I could probably go down in the band if I wanted but I don't feel like I absolutely need to right now. There is ribbon on the cups as I mentioned above so if you get cutting in then I would go up a cup size as that definitely helped me, but I do find it fits more or less true to size.

    My only real issue with the bra is that the straps are really far apart, they don't fit brilliantly on my shoulders but it doesn't bother me enough to not like the bra.
