Too much cup volume for me on both the sides and top.

This model definitely runs very big! My ABTF calculator size is 36J, but I fit 36HH best in Panache and 36H in Elomi. This is a 34GG, equivalent to a 36G! That’s five sizes under my calculator size!
The wires are wide but short, and the cup runs very full. This is a good bra to get if you’re struggling with lack of projection, short or high set roots, omega shape, etc. Get it one to three sizes under your calculator size and work from there. I also have it in my calculator size in 36J - Elomi » Lydia Bandless Bra (EL4390) for comparison. Although that one is too big and extremely wide, it’s still extremely comfortable and stays on me well, especially when J hooked. I plan to try this model in 36GG and 36H soon.

Nice bra but not a good fit for me. Cups were a little "loose" on top. Gore dug a little into chest.

I oredered a UK 34J, but was sent this US 34J (with a hanging tag label of UK 36HH!), so I am just including the measurements before sending it back. For a full review, see 34J - Elomi » Charley Plunge Bra (4380) . Sorry no pics of the bra on - I can't get into it, haha!

First of all, this color is gorgeous. I would love the Elomi Kim in this color. Fabric doesn't feel as breathable as I'd like and the shape seems to push my breasts out to the sides, which is a really odd look for how close set my breasts are. It just looks very odd. Not a terrible fit. Does seem to chafe a bit around the sides though. It cuts across my tail of spence though, which is not very comfortable. I think the cut is just a bit too high for me. Narrow shoulders probably contribute to this a lot. On that note though, the straps do fit pretty well.

I'm in the process of trying to find my size in this bra, because I like the fabric (very soft) and the color (neutral), so I would really like it to work. In some sizes it almost fits, but 34GG is not one of them. The band is snug but livable in 34", but everything else is too small so I'm getting quadboob as well as butt crack cleavage above the tacking gore. I will be returning this bra.

Another bra that I wish would fit. I like the idea of the Etta because the issue I have with my other Elomi bras (Cate and Caitlyn) is that the part of the band that's under the underwire rolls over itself during the day and becomes painful. Etta has zero fabric in that location, so it looks like it would be an improvement, but I haven't found the right size yet. The 34 band is very tight on me (uncomfortably so) and the gore doesn't tack by about 2". I will probably reorder this in a 36 band and 1 to 2 larger cup sizes to see if I can find an Etta that fits.

The best sports bra I have tried so far. The band is tight, but not uncomfortably so (just right). The underwires are too wide for me and the gore doesn't tack by about 2" but the cups neither overflow nor wrinkle. The bra feels very supportive with 4 hooks per column. The fabric feels tightly woven and I get the impression that it would survive tough workouts. I might end up keeping this one, depending on what other options I can find. I might also reorder in a bigger cup size to see the difference but I am concerned that the underwires would then be even wider.

This bra has a lot of fabric, but I think that't to be expected in a sports bra. It has underwires, so it's an encapsulation type sports bra. It has soft, satiny fabric that's quite nice against the skin. I haven't yet worn it for sports so I'm not sure how quick it dries yet. On me, the band is comfortable, I can adjust the straps properly and it seems like my breast tissue is well contained in the cups. The only issue I see so far is that the gore doesn't tack. I don't know whether that's normal in a sports bra or not so I haven't yet decided whether I will keep or return this bra.

Not the best bra for me. The gore is very low, so I don't feel supported and look like I have "butt crack cleavage" even though it tacks. Also, the 4 part cups are too shallow for me - they give my breasts a strange, almost square look. The fabric of this bra is very thin and almost see-through, like a mesh. I do not find it comfortable. One thing I do like about this bra is that it has 3 hooks per row; this makes it feel sturdier than many other bras I have tried in my size. I will be returning this bra as it's not for me overall.

band feels a little tighter than elomi nina, but only because the cups are just a little more shallow

Got this bra a week after being fitted. It fit fine at first but now it's beginning to bite a little into the top of my breast. It was my favorite, and I have have ordered another in 34HH while I still could. I understand as you wear correctly fitted bras, this happens, your breast tissue migrates back towards the breast. This bra is so comfortable except on hot days, the floral satiny fabric is not forgiving for the under breast on hot days. It's very pretty, the prettiest bra I have ever had. Never realized one breast was slightly larger than the other until I got this bra but the elastic on the lace, made that evident as I jiggled, stooped and swooped into the bra. I am worried now, that I maybe should have gone up 2 cup sizes, I will just wear the heck out of it I guess!

My review is the same for this bra in the purple colourway: I bought this in my sister size of 34GG as plunge bras in my usual size that work for my shape (average on top, fairly close set, FOB, projected) are hard to find (I usually wear a 32H). The cup shape works for me and the bra is pretty. I thought I could get away with a 34 band but have found it too loose. I might try taking the band in as otherwise this is a really nice plunge bra.

The first perfectly fitting bra I've ever owned. I was almost in tears over it when I first put it on!

Has stretched over the year, still fits OK but is definitely getting loose on the tightest hooks.

Elomi is coming out with a 32 band in October. It's a plunge called Carmen. Check it out on their website.
