See my review of this bra in a 30J. I'd only add that the band was a bit too small for me, otherwise I basically had the same fit issues, only worse! lol This one's going back for sure.

Soft, beautiful navy lace overlay with creamy padded cups. Very supportive. Gives gorgeous, high & rounded shape. Typical CK wider-set cups and wires. No-go for me, but.....
Band
+ Support is great - took all the weight, to where I didn't even notice the straps.
+ Snug, not much give, and fits perfectly on loosest
Gore:
- Very low gore didn't tack at all for my close-set boobs, sat about .5 in off my ribcage.
- boobs spilled out the middle
Cups
+ Rather tall, but fit close to the body - shocked I didn't have any gaping where strap & cup meet.
- Due to their width, they ... are too tall on the far side of my breast and under my arm and cause immediate discomfort/chafing.
Summary:
Great support and shape...but....Cups too wide for me & breasts spill out the middle due to low gore & being naturally very close-set. Wide-set underwires are painful on the sides of my ribcage. I might try to deal with the discomfort if I wasn't so splayed and the gore wasn't so low.
Too bad - Roxie gives killer high, up-front and rounded shape (the Holy Grail for me!) - until my boobs fall out the middle! Lol
( Sidenote: I'm wondering if I may be shallow as well as FoT? This kind of padded plunge has worked in 2 bras for me now, and it's the only exception I've found to my half-cup only rule)

Band size was fine. I like stretchy 28 bands or firm 30 bands and this was a stretchy 28. The cups were the right size and shape for me. Not too big, not too little, not too shallow, not too projected, with even projection (neither for FOT nor for FOB). Centre gore is low but cups are not far spaced enough. Go for this bra if you are slightly-moderately shallow, have broad roots, average distance between breasts, and have even fullness (neither FOB nor FOT)

Fit = Snug with lots of support. Straps are wide and comfortable. Cups provide pretty good lift. But, top of cups is way too loose and gaps open.
Appearance = Absolutely gorgeous. Colors are so pretty and the lace detail is fabulous. Nice scalloped edge on top of cups. Cute bow in the middle.

Not a perfect fit. My breast tissue is escaping out the armpit area. one size up (30FF) seems to gape, so perhaps it is a shape incompatibility. I may keep this one anyway, as it is gorgeous and my breasts look sexy in it. Sometimes, fit is sacrificed to appearance!
Edit -- after one day's wear, I think it fits well enough to keep! No breast tissue escaping through the work day. It may not hold up to a lot of movement, but good enough for every day use!Updated on Feb 25, 2015 Flag this

I have two curvy kate bras: Roxie and Tease Me. Both of them are 30DD. Although they are same size, Roxie has bigger cups than Tease Me... So, it means Roxie is too big for me.

Gorgeous! Slight gaping at the top of the moulded cup, so perhaps would work better for someone who is fuller on top. I am going to try a size down.

This bra is ever to slightly too big and just slightly to wide-set in the strap placement.
The band is super snug and the shape works awesome like the smaller size I have did when I was smaller. I like the black/pink better, but this bra is pretty as well.This bra is not owned any more

Wanted this to fit so bad! I love it, but my super soft boobs just fall out the center.

My first Curvy Kate plunge bra. Since they recently totally messed up their sizing system, I have to figure out my size all over again. 30J wasn't it. Too seperate for my soft boobs.
