The construction of this 4-part balconette is scaled reasonably at my size (40:6) immediately outside of the core size range.
The listed measurements were taken from the beige colorway as manufactured (unaltered).
The teal colorway runs taller/bigger but is also long discontinued so likely won't impact your purchasing decisions.
Whatever colorway you consider, this is a full-coverage, tall balconette best suited for slight FoB - Even - FoT breasts with average to tall roots.
[My FoB breasts that lose upper volume with weight loss is why I reduced the cup height (the stretch lace top section) by ~1.75" in Teal and ~1" in Beige]
The winning ... feature of 40E - Curvy Kate » Victory Balcony (9001) is its simple yet modern seamed cup design that is truly INVISIBLE under clothes in basic Black and Latte and also juicy saturated colors like Teal, Turquoise, Ultraviolet, Navy, Claret, Pink.
The band is a firmer TTS.
The partially sheer to sheer mesh fabric is appealing and gives solid lift and rounded shape, with the bonus STRETCH mesh upper cup section that accomodates breast volume fluctuations and asymmetry. This type of fabric is a slight compromise in comfort that is reasonable for me.
The cups are reasonably deep and work well for my malleable soft tissue. But it is no match for the projected superbra of 4-part UK balconettes that is Panache Jasmine Balconnet Bra (6951) or Sculptresse Chi-chi Full Cup Bra (7695) or any of their clones which I've collected and listed amongst My Bras.
The wires seem standard for Curvy Kate, as far as I can tell.
