This bra fit really well, but I've outgrown it!

This bra fits really well and looks nice, I just don't like padded bras all that much.

Love the style and material, will have to try in a bigger size.

Absolutely beautiful color combination. Very sad that this bra didn't fit. Will have to try it in 32GG!

Very pretty, but the underwires (while they seem to be the right height/length) dig dramatically into my sternum. The cups are also too big for me, especially at the top.

It's close in volume, but the cups are too far apart. The wires dig in and there's empty cups in my armpit. The straps are a bit far apart, but it works. I tried pulling the cups together to mimic a gore alteration, but it got too uncomfortable. I can lift my arms up without the bra moving.

It's a comfortable and well made bra and I wish we didn't have irreconcilable differences. But I think this is an old version of CK Princess and have read that the cups are now closer together. I plan on trying the new version in 30GG and 32G, or possibly a larger cup in these bands. Note to self: the curved band wasn't an apparent problem.

My usual size is a 32G in Freya but in this size the band was too large and I could feel it was not going to be firm enough. A quick exchange later and I have been very happy with it.
Pros: good fit, for a bra with such good cleavage I feel secure. It gives a great look with lower cut tops. Straps are a good width and don't fall down.
Cons: after a full day of wear, the band can feel tight and uncomfortable on me. Not one for particularly active days unless I wear a tight vest top. It can give a bit too much of the "jellies on a plate" look for everyday wear.

I really love this bra, but I outsized it before I got a chance to wear it. I have the Emily in a 30H and the fit of the Ella in 30H was much better for my shape - more give in the band and deeper cups.

I think in the correct size, this bra isn't ideal for my shape. I can get away with a 32G which is the best fit, but ideally I need a 30 band. However, I found the 30GG too small in the cup (as the wire comes quite far round the sides instead of upfront), and this 30H was slightly too big in the cup again coming too far round the sides when I needed the extra room in the front. Still a lovely bra, and I always found the 32G very comfortable even if a tad loose in the band.

A little while ago, I fell in love with the very beautiful Emily bra by Curvy Kate. I've had the Emily in 'Flame' for a little while, and I am constantly trying to stop myself from wearing it every...

This bra looks beautiful- it's very sexy and in your face feminine- which i know isn't everyone's cup of tea but its very much mine https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

When I first bought this bra I thought it was a very good fit, but since losing weight and having tissue migration I'm starting to think that maybe it's a bit off.

Firstly the band- I'd say its a very comfy band- especially with the 3 hook setting - but I've noticed that the straps on my band area starting to pull slightly- meaning that they're taking more of the weight than they should- so if I was to buy this bra again I'd be tempted to try a 28.

The cups are fab- very nicely made and supportive- and the open shape make them great for my fuller on top shape.

It does look lovely on and it's very useful for under wider lower necklines.

Lovely bra but too small in the cups. Band is tight, I would choose 32 next time.

What a pretty, sexy bra. Too bad it's too small in the cups for me. I feel like the cups are wide and the wires go out towards under my arm. It does provide great round cleavage though. The band runs about one size big for a 30". It's a gorgeous color scheme.

Well, I like this bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> It's not my fave, but it is perfect for low-cut tops that have wide straps where you don't want too much cleavage hanging out. It almost acts like a minimizer in that from the side you can see it kind of smashes the breasts down, but it's still sexy. It just doesn't give you that rounded look like a balconnet would. Definitely nothing like a balconnet style, I'm not sure what this style would be called, lol. Since I have the Gulf of Mexico between my breasts, Curvy Kate styles with ... center gores that are wide don't bother me. I could see how if your breasts were too close-set that this style would be a problem. I honestly can only wear this bra with a few of my tops, as with a normal cami it doesn't line up with the spaghetti straps. For those few shirts that I can wear this with it is a God-send as nothing else works, however. The upper half of the cup is super sheer, and the nipples show through, so be careful, lol!! I have the matching briefs, and the little keyhole in the back and the gold rose details are really stunning. Curvy Kate certainly pays attention to detail, and that's why I love their bras.

I love this bra!! I guess having the Gulf of Mexico between my breasts is a good thing for Curvy Kate styles, because I have never had the complaint of having too wide of a center gore. When I first got the 30H, I thought it was too big, so I ordered the 30GG. Then I realized that it was supposed to fit like that, lol! You have to wear this bra for a little while to let your breasts settle into the cup, but once you do, va-va-va-voom!!! Very pretty decollete, and gives the best balcony shape ever. The lace ruffle ... at the top of the cup will show up under some tops, but for some tops this is the perfect solution. I did notice that after wearing it all day, my shoulders hurt a bit more, so I had to do some adjustment in the straps, but it's fine now. This is a great bra for when you want a sexy silhouette for a long wear, but don't want the major cleavage of a push-up bra that shouldn't be worn too long. What goes up, must come down, ladies!! Wearing a push-up all day will stretch your breast tissue out and make them sag all that much quicker. Balcony bras are a great solution, and this one is the sexiest I own!!!

Fit is ok. The band is too tight and the cups give my chest a weird square look.

The fit is good, but the bra gives my boobs a square shape.

The bottom of the cup seems super shallow, so I get some folding happening, but it's not uncomfortable at all. My smaller side fits better in the bottom and top, my larger side gets at least one cup size of overspill, but with a shirt on it's not as noticeable. The straps are a bit wide for me and slide off occasionally, but I have very narrow shoulders and have never not had that be a problem.
My nursing baby loves this bra a lot, and the top of the cup is easy to fold out of the way. It's not uncomfortable to pull it down and feed the baby, even with the foofy ruffle. The strap does not dig into my armpit unduly while nursing. The strap is also quite soft, so I don't notice it digging in when I am holding the baby normally (i.e. terrible hunched over posture).
I got the high briefs and the ruffled pants with this one and am enchanted by them, they are quite comfortable and shiny and breathable.

Really perfect shape, love the boob separation (ie no touching)

Very cute bra. I'm having trouble with the underwires, though; they dig into the sternum in the front and seem too narrow. I'm also getting some wrinkling at the top of the cup.

Too small for me. I think if I ever buy a CK again I'll have to go to a boutique and try one on in person. I probably need to go up one or two cup sizes. Trial and error! Anyway, I love the look of this bra, and it's comfortable. Gore doesn't lie flat, leaves a big gap between the bottom of the gore/ribcage., quad boob, etc. I measure 31'' band and I do like the size of this band.
