I absolutely hate this bra.
I have the Tease Me from Curvy Kate, and got the smoothie after it was suggested in a similar styles search. I was hoping to get a similar bra that was smooth, for wearing under thinner t-shirts. They don't fit the same at all and I was extremely disappointed.
The smoothie is extremely uncomfortable. It runs way small compared to the Tease Me.
The cloth comes too high in the arm pits, and the wires don't make it all the way up the cloth. The little lacy trim is painful, and chafes.
The underwire digs into my ribs and under-bust, and the band, although it ... has very little stretch, will ride up with movement, and doesn't do it's job. I have to tighten the straps as tight as I can for the bra to hold up my breasts, and even then it doesn't do a good job. The straps dig in, and move when I do. I'm left with little brown burns-or something similar going just across my front armpit fat where the bra laid.
I've got wide-set breasts, but the gore in the smoothie is too wide even for me. It pokes into my boobs on both sides. The gore doesn't lay flat, the cups are way too shallow.
Atop being just uncomfortable, the bra (mine was black) just dis-colours very quickly from deodorant.
I can't stand wearing this bra- it's a only-if-the-rest-are-in-the-wash-or-need-a-break bra.
