I bought this bra NWOT from another user. The bra was much, much too small for her, and I admit as much as I've been curious to see how FB would fit me, and outgrowing my bras, I probably would not have actually purchased it if I didnt feel so bad for her, stuck past the return window with a bra that didnt fit at all.
It is SLIGHTLY too big for me. I think I would fit a 75K. The cups come up quite high on me, and there is a little loose lace on my smaller side. I dont mound up so dramatically ... FOT in this bra either, but look more even or even FOB, i think. But it seems like it will be a very secure hold, and even gives me some room to grow - ideal PMS bra, tho I really am SO ready to be done cycling!!
The band is very firm. Its a 75 and I am really fine with it on the loosest hook, despite me wearing 32 in Panache. I havent had a chance to wear it yet - I need to soak in vinegar first, to start getting rid of the fabric softener scent - i forgot to ask the seller not to wash it. But I'm hoping it will stay in place better than most of my Ewas, which all slide down on me, mostly due ot not enough space at the bottom or inside of the cups.
The straps do seem to dig in pretty badly, adn I"m not sure why. as you can see in the pics, I'm tempted to use the silicone strap pad in teh front! (cant see all pics from the front page of bratabase tho - have to click through to the bra page)
I took pics in 2 batches - one the day after I got it, and one today, when it was FINALLY sunny again.
Anyways, its interesting - the shape seems different than my SF, not as round? the wire angles back a lot on the sides. But I'm hoping it will be a workhorse for me!
Note - the first day I wore the bra - it was amazing!! No bra has stayed in my IMF this well since I was 2 cup sizes smaller! It was firm and stayed in place and I felt great! I did loosen the straps more, and they didnt bother me at all!

It looks like a good fit, but a little wide on the sides.
BTW, does that silicone strap pad help at all and doesn't it feel sweaty?
