Such a pretty bra. Such a tricky fit. The band was really loose & the cups a bit small, though they gapped at the top as they haver zero stretch. The shape I got was awful. The dreaded square boob CK is infamous for in too small cups. The straps are pretty with a floral design. I found them too thin, not soft, & I dislike the zero stretch. Thi's bra does not move with me at all.
The velvet polka dots are lovely, as is the ribbon detail along the top of the cups. Neither make for a comfy feel next to the skin, though. And the raised dots DO pick up color from almost anything. Mine quickly became a collection of gray and red, with some navy too. Mind, these are from shirts I've owned a long time that do not bleed color. At any rate, I hate white bras anyway, so along with my a freya Jolie, I decided to dye them with food coloring. The Princess is now pale blue & much prettier.
Like other curvy kate bras I would say this one is becoming looser on the band, but it is very comfortable! There is a little bit of gap at the top of the cups, but there is a very smooth line under clothes. Personally this is my favourite of all my bras (I own 3) which I wear as everyday bras. Comfortable but a little bit sexy. What's not to like!?
I Just got this bra in the mail. It's the little sister version of the larger one I have! Still cute and even better, it has the perfect fit. The material is transparent with cute white polkadots over the cup material. The band is not very stretchy and is a little bit snug. Great look and support. Downside is the material tends to pick up a bit more dirt since it is white.
Probably should have bought a 38. As someone on r/ABTF mentioned in my fitcheck, it seems like my breasts are a little more full on bottom, and this bra doesn't accomodate it as well. There's some wrinkling at the bottom, as my breast tissue has migrated up. The cup/straps also are a little too wide for me, so that it cuts into my armpit if I move my arms forward. So much better support than my old VS bras though.
This bra has too much projection for my shallow boobs. It manages to encompass them wide enough but there a lot of wrinkling happening. I think I should just avoid CK soft cups.
This is a cute bra which fits very well. The wires are a perfect width. On my smaller boob the cup wrinkles a bit, but my bigger boob fits correct, and the centre gore was to wide (which it always is) so I had to sew the cups closer together.
Fits well and gives a nice round shape. The wires could be júst a bit wider for me, but it's a very sexy bra. The top of the cups gape a bit, which is easily fixed by sewing in the lace and the centre gore was to wide for me (which actually always is the case) but I sewed the cups closer together.
I have shallow, bottom heavy breasts and after coming to grips with the fact that Curvy Kates non padded bras simply do not work with my shape, I decided to give the Showgirl line a try. I picked up the Tease Me in Cherry and this cut is pretty much perfect for me. The cups are very shallow, but quite wide. This is excellent for me, but those with narrower roots, top heaviness, or lots of projection will probably have issues with this fit.
The band is a bit stretchy. Not so much that I would need to size down to a 34, but if you prefer a very tight band, you'll want to consider sizing down. The wires on this are also quite a bit taller on the sides than on the non-padded Curvy Kates. I prefer this, as I have a long torso, and boobs that always want to escape out to the side.
This bra is absolutely B-You-tiful!!! I wanted this bra to fit sooo bad because of that, (and I also didn't want to pay return shipping/stocking fee) I am sad to say that this bra was quite uncomfortable because it didn't fit me. I know that I have broad shoulders, however this bra's straps are VERY wide set, they actually fall off my shoulders if I wear it properly. I pull the straps closer in , which actually leads to gapping on the top part of the cup. The cups are on the wide side as well, however I do tend to need narrower cups so they may be of a slightly wider than normal cup. Also I have found with Curvy Kate if you are in between band sizes to get the smaller band and go up one-two cup sizes, this bra runs a little truer to size but you still may want to go one cup size larger.
I'm not sure what to think about this bra. It seems like the same style as @Romance and Ella that I really like but something about the style doesn't work on me. It seems at the top the lace is more frilly than functional and kind of bugs me. Otherwise it is very similar to those other two.
I tried this bra in a 32G and am glad I've tried the next cup size up. It's a very comfortable bra that I could see become by day to day bra. I didn't notice any fit issues myself.
Back when I first started to self measure and ordered bras from online, it was very much a hit or miss game. This bra was from my first online order. I ordered the bra in a 36H, 34HH, and 34H… I kept this 36H because it felt like the best fit out of the bunch, and returned the others for an exchange (which again, ended up a failure even though I kept those bras.) It's made out of a smooth mesh material with very cute polkadots across the cup. The strap has a very pretty floral embroidery on it. The quality of this bra is very outstanding. Even though this bra is now very large, it has become my fall back bra to wear when I just don't know what else to wear. It's comfortable and too large now, but the cups are awesome (albeit they are a bit large…). I need this bra is a smaller band size and an adjusted cup size. Because I have had this bra for so long, it obviously has seen better days.

I ordered the bra in a 36H, 34HH, and 34H… all of which felt far too small to wear. So like a fool I exchanged the for a band up. Which ended up (for about a week) feeling like I had ordered the better size. Now, months later, I know how overly sized is this bra. It's made out of a smooth mesh material with stitch work on the cups of a floral chain leading up to a floral scalloped top of the cups. the straps are simple with little bows on them. The quality of this bra is very outstanding. I only ever wore this specific bra about 5 or 6 times before I had to retire it for just offering no support.

This bra is at LEAST two cup sizes too small, so it's difficult to say how it fits. However, I can say that no matter how 'empty' your breasts are, holy cow will this give you incredible balloons-stuck-to-my-chest cleavage. It's pretty difficult to determine shape with sizing so far off, and same with support--my breasts are popping, spilling, veritably teeming over the cups, but I don't know if that's because of the construction or because it's waaay too small.
Again, this is at least a cup size too small for me; I'd love to try it one size up. The support is great, but I'm not so sure about the shape on this one--the underwires are way too wide for me (they extend at least 1/2" after my breast stops), and the straps feel like they're trying to sneak under my armpits. It gives me a rounded, but kind of compressed shape--not quite as forward-projecting as I'd like, but not drooping, either.
