Purchased because the Bratabase listed that this model has very wide cups (cup width=8.5"). That is wrong. The cup width is actually 5.5" with a cup DEPTH of about 8.5". Narrow cups don't fit my shape. Returned.
About me: petite with wide horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts * average projection * wide-set (3 fingers width of space between breasts) * very wide roots (extend past the mid-axillary line) * short roots * even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full) * mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away) * conical shape (but will squish to round) * full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FOB due to short roots and soft tissue * petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
I love this bra! It's one of my best fitting bras. I never feel like I'm going to "fall out" and the subtle leopard print is super cute. I have this bra in nude and just bought it in the raspberry color too. The nude is great - and the pattern doesn't show under clothing! The actual wire doesn't fill in the entire length of the the fabric where the wire should be (I'm not sure if that makes sense - not sure how to describe it!) - this doesn't affect the fit, but I'm worried the wire will pop through the fabric eventually since it seems to ..."push" on it where the wire ends.
The raspberry color is SUPER bright and very cute. However, I ordered it on Ebay and while it was listed as New With Tags (and it did still have the tags - and was still in the Curvy Kate bag) it has these VERY tiny white dots on the cups. I thought it was fuzz or dirt or something at first, but washed it and they are still there. It's not very noticeable since they are so small, but I can tell they are there. Has anyone else had this issue with the Smoothie bra? Read more 101 more words
Yet another Showgirl in my collection. I love how it makes my boobs look like perfect little apple. For anyone who considers this bra - go band size down and cup size up.
Very cute & supportive, would have kept it if I'd filled out the cups.
The molded/padded cups wouldn't mush my boobs into the right shape to fill them so there was a big gap in front of my nipples and at the top of the cup.

Underbust 33", bust 38" when parallel to ground. This is my best fitting bra right now! If I were to buy this bra again, I would probably get it in 32E because the band could be more snug. Otherwise, it is a fantastic bra. For many however, this bra runs large. Because I am in between sizes, it fits just fine.
