Yet again ... Curvy Kate, why are you doing this to me? The 32E - Curvy Kate » Tease Me [showgirl Collection] (SG2001) was too small and my nipples were sticking out of the cup, but the 32F in the same model and colourway is just too damn big! There is at least a centimeter of space between my flesh and the bra in the upper part of the cup and I am *so* disappointed. Well, this one is going to be 'look at me in it and take it off now' bra.

[EDIT 14.01.2014] After a while of wearing it I seem to like the fit more and more. Now it kind of adjusted to my boobs and I like the fit nicely. Magic or what?

i am officially in love. this bra is lovely, supportive, gives great cleavage without spillover, and surprisingly is wearable under most clothes. i expected the mesh band to be really stretchy, but it isn't at all.

Not my favorite fit. Comfortable stretchy fabric, comfortable cups, but too much lace on top, strange looking under clothes.

This size isn't perfect, I wear about a 28G, so I didn't have high hopes for this. But it does fit pretty well! Obviously, the band is too big, but I'm planning on taking it in. The cups are definitely full, but I wouldn't go a size bigger. The lace at the top does disguise any spillage caused by moving around.

The very decorative cups will show through tshirts, and the big bows on the straps mean that I can't wear this with strappy tops.

Overall, very comfortable bra. If I could find a 28G, I think it would be perfect!

Pros:

Cute, if you’re into burlesque.
Seems to give others good cleavage, might have done so for me if I had gone down a cup
Half cup with a large size range
Comes in LOTS of colors.

Cons:

Wires are very long (and the reason it made its way into my reject bin)
Bit hard to work into daily wear
Straps felt very stretchy
Wide gore

I bought this off Ebay, mostly because it was a great deal, and I can't resist a great deal. Especially when the 'properly fitted bra community' is obsessed with it. Plus it seemed cute, in a garis...

Such a nice bra!! 32 works for me, but since I'm usually a 30, that would be better. I'd say band runs true to size, maybe a bit tight. Cups I think true to size. Bows and ruffles make this not a tank top bra, but not too difficult to hide https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I attached a blog review below, but I'll summarize here. I usually wear a 32 band, but this one is a bit loose; I wear it fastened on the 2nd hook. I would absolutely suggest going down a band size in the whole Showgirl Collection. Also, even though this is a shallow cup, it is a bit too deep for me near the gore which is causing some gaping in that part of the cup. Someone with firmer breasts or who is fuller on top probably wouldn't have this problem?

The bra itself is incredibly comfortable, though I find that the wings do come up high enough to rub uncomfortably after a long day of wear. Even with the slightly off fit, this bra looks good under a shirt.

I just don't know when to quit. I said that I was happy enough with the Thrill Me. And I was, I really, really was. At least I was happy with it until I saw a Bratabase listing offering a ...

Disclaimer: baby pink and white is not my first choice of color combinations, but this was for sale at a decent price in my size, so please don't judge me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" />
I can deal with crazy pink shades like fuchsia and magenta, but I'm not such a big fan of the baby pink and white. I'm seriously considering removing the dotted Swiss lace that covers most of the bra so the nice crazy color can come out to play, but I don't sew and haven't figured out yet how to remove the lace from the cups, gore, and wings without hurting the thick ... lace and ribbon trim at the top.
I really like the lace and ribbon trim on the top. The scalloped edges on the lace remind me of one of my favorite motifs, the Egyptian lotus. I'm giving the bra high marks for its appearance, as the color isn't really its fault.
As I suspected, the fit is good but not perfect. I have a tiny bit of quadboob in the area of the cups meeting the gore if I breathe too deeply, and the area around the straps gapes a little bit (from looking at other users' photos, this seems to be a common problem). I don't think sizing down to a 32E wouldn help, I think I'd just have more quadboob in the front. The fit of this bra is similar to my Ewa Michalak HP and CH bras, but a little less forgiving.

Update: I've worn it for a couple of hours, and my boobs are starting to feel a little squished. This may not be the best choice to wear all day for a lady with projection. But as others have said, it does feel pretty secure. The gore is a pain, too.

This bra is beautiful. The band, however, for a 32, feels pretty loose. I would have gone down one band size, but I bought it at brastop and they didn't have anything left in a 30 band. I think I will have to alter the band. I can wear it on the tightest hook comfortably now, but I'm not sure how long that will last.


The cups are very comfortable and soft. I went up one cup size, as everyone recommended that the Tease Me line in Curvy Kate ran large. The wires are wider than any of the bras I own, so I think that I probably didn't need to go up an extra cup size, as I think that they are a little bit large. There is a little bit of gaping at the top. I ordered the bra in a 32E also, and am waiting to get it and hoping that it fits!

I wanted to love this bra so badly! The trappings are beautiful - periwinkle blue lace, ribbons, and bows with white accents. Doesn't make for a subtle look under clothes, but that is not the reason one buys a bra with all these bells and whistles, is it? The fabrics are all very comfortable despite the frills. It seems very well structured, and I especially enjoy the powermesh that makes up the side wings and back, and the fact that the straps are fully adjustable. Since it's a balconette, it gives good uplift without very much cleavage, which is my preference. Overall, a ... beautiful and well-designed garment.

All that being said, I have some fit problems with this bra. Even though the cups seem to fit well, it seems too big in that it is a little on the wide side. Most noticeably, the entire outer edges of the cups are basically cutting into my armpits - the straps, the underwires themselves, and the fabric that curves down to the wings. If I align the straps vertically, as they are meant to sit, they actually sit on the outside of the acromion (the bump at the end of one's collarbone). And as a result of the whole conglomeration sitting very tenuously at the edge of my shoulder, I often feel like the straps are on the verge of falling off, no matter how tight I adjust them. I don't consider myself to have narrow shoulders, but this proved to be the main problem with this bra.

Since the band as a good amount of stretch to it and I'm having some gapping at the top of the cups with a 32F, I suppose I could try sizing down and seeing if that would help the problem. Of course, I bought this item on sale and this was the only one anywhere near my size. So next time, I'll try the 30F and see how that is.
