This is a decent fit, but the straps are painfully too short.

cup apex is lower than my apex. The cup wires slightly too wide for me. Cups are high. Band is less than usual 30 bands, using an extender.
good for FOT,

I ordered this bra in the 30G and the 30H. The 30G cups were too small and the 30H cups were too big, I should have ordered the 30GG. I returned this bra.

This bra fit well on my wide root, close together breasts. Great t-shirt bra.
However, part of the inner mesh on the lacey bits has ripped after only wearing it a few times.

The Great Amazon Prime Wardrobe Try-On, Part 3
My shape: full on bottom, soft tissue, narrow shoulders/roots.
Fit and Appearance: See review I did for 30GG Ellace, which fit me the best by far. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> This size was woefully too small and quaddy, which I sort of knew when I chose it as part of my Prime Wardrobe box. I figured it couldn't hurt to get more measurements.

Just a disaster. This bra in 30G fit like a 30F. I would need to size up to AT LEAST 30H for it to even have a prayer of fitting. I also found it very uncomfortable and heavy, with thick padding that only makes the seams bulge out under shirts - more than either your typical padded cup bra, or your typical soft cup bra. This combination of both is like the worst of all worlds! I'm still a newbie, this bra seem to me to be made for women with breasts that are short and wide, like a little shelf. My breasts are definitely not this shape (They start fairly high on my chest and slope downwards into a teardrop shape) and were fighting this bra the whole time.

My shape: Projected, narrow, shorter roots, even/functionally full on bottom, soft tissue. Cleo Lily fits me best.

This fits about true to size in the band and cups, but it definitely suits shorter roots. I wish the band was more sturdy; I think the flimsier mesh makes the elastic edges cut in more. The wires are too wide for me. Immediate depth is quite good, and I love the 3x3 hooks.

The stock photos makes the pink look much more pale than it actually is; in fact it's actually fluorescent.

I went up a cup size (and down a band) because the 32F seemed to have a lot of promise for my deep/narrow/center-full shape (especially for a Curvy Kate), but this 30G seems hardly any deeper.

I went up a side in this but I'm still getting quadding. Maybe this is just too shallow for me.

I purchased this bra in 28G, 30FF, and 30G. See other reviews for more details. Although the 30G fit the most comfortably near the wire, the cups were then too tall for my short roots. And, the gore width in all sizes is too wide. For average-rooted, projected breasts, this is a great everyday bra. If you are full on top or short -waisted & short-rooted (like me), look elsewhere.

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=":-)" />

Very short, projected, close set, even, slightly narrow breasts....

Super cute. I'm fond of black, polka dots, sheer fabrics, and texture. Princess Plunge has it all https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

Whoa. This was uncomfortable. For some reason, the CK plunges don't fit me well. When removing the bra, the wire had slid 1/2" down within a few minutes. And, I presented quadding and huge wrinkles as well as non-fill in the bottom. I surmise this cut is not immediately projected enough for me. It does have ample room for upper fullness, however. If you are full on top and slightly less projected, this may be a ... great fit!

The second time I tried this bra, there were significant wire lines along the bottom of both breasts. Although I sincerely appreciate the aesthetics of this bra, I don't comfortably fit in 32F or 30G CK 2015+ plunges. Contrast the fit of this plunge to the 30G Ellace: there is a remarkable difference despite the dimensional similarity. I can wear Ellace all day with no downward shift and no discomfort. In this size range, Ellace and Florence are more immediately projected than the plunges. For science, I'll try the 30FF and hope the cup is .2" wider than the 32F Atomic Plunge.

I shifted the cup 1/2" toward the center: this fit well from a volume perspective. But, for some reason, these plunge cuts exacerbate my need for close-set cups. It appears the plunge wires shift the breasts to the center and trap my tissue, that needs to meet in the middle, under the gore wires. Consequently, there is little lift and quite a bit of discomfort. The balconettes fit much better despite the taller gore. So, I will cling tightly to the balconettes.

For wearing as lingerie, it works well. I probably could have gone with a touch larger band, but this one was available and works well. The cups fit fine.

Very short, projected, close set, even, slightly narrow breasts....

In the time required to ship a replacement bra from the U.K., my breasts have grown. I'm learning now that by the full moon of each lunar cycle I am 1-2 cups larger than I am on the new moon. Oh how I wish I had known earlier. So, this 30G is now too small. One small Bardot is enough for my Bradrobe. And, I've discovered Ellace which is incredibly comfortable and more tolerant of size fluctuations. Bardot is more beautiful, but my #1 priority is comfort. Stretch lace and mesh will win every time https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

Very short, slightly narrow, even, close set, projected breasts....

Because gore wires must overlap for a bra to fit me, I anticipated preferring the sister size 32FF to the 30G. Overlapping the gore wires shortens the band approximately 1". However, wearing the 32FF was remarkably less comfortable than the 30G. For some reason, the 30G I received had a wider cup and narrower gore than the 32FF. The depth was identical, but the wider cup combined with narrower gore created more volume for my breasts. When I do alter the gore of the 30G, I may require an extender. But, the wire currently sits on my tissue which increases ... the circumference of my band; maybe....maybe not.

Opulent is the first word that came to my mind. I'm smitten. Sigh. When the light hits the golden embroidery, the embroidery shimmers against a saturated merlot. The straps are luminous: I won't attempt to hide their spectacular color and sheen.

This is not nearly as comfortable as the Comexim Eve, but this bra fits better. The lift is substantial and my breasts look 20 years younger. The cup height is ideal for very short roots which is opposite what I experience with Comexim: their cups are too tall for the immediate projection I require. But, Anna is contemplating a solution https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> Curvy Kate includes three rows and columns in the fastener and .75" straps: this is identical to Comexim. Sincerely, I appreciate more fasteners and thick, supportive straps.

I'm surprised I like this bra so much. And, I'm stunned it fits well compared to the 96 other bras I've tried. Thank you lcl0706 for recommending this bra...a few times. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

Note: there appears some dimensional differences between the berry/copper and black/purple models which were released in different years. Berry/copper measurements are a bit deeper and wider. So much so, in fact, I hesitate to order the same size in the black/purple colorway.

Edit: After narrowing and overlapping the gore, the wire under my most projected breast now digs in. And, there is empty space in the bottom of the cup. Finally, the lift is so good, the narrowed, overlapped gore still sit on my breasts along the gore. I will refrain from using adjectives to describe the frustration I feel right now. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":-(" />

Such a cute bra. Very comfortable.

I love this bra. The ruffling at the top might be getting added to all my bras that have a tiny bit of quad boob. If it didn't have this, I wouldn't love the bra so much- but because of it my boobs look awesome- most other bras don't give the cleavage I want or have too much spillage. More for the hubby, as the ruffles and ribbons so under some shirts, and all my tanks- wish it came in white or nude without contrasting ribbon so I could wear under lighter colored shirts

Love this bra, smooth, well shaped for shallow and wide breasts, and not overly padded.
