I'm so disappointed. The band, brand new and all, stretches to 29 inches - a far cry from the 26 band I was expecting. I own this bra in 55H as well, and while I realise that a bigger cup can change things, this 55J is just -so- much more bra than the 55H. The cups are very wide, the gore is considerably higher, the cups are suprisingly tall and the straps are pure agony. It's bad enough to make me wonder if they got the patterns mixed up, or if it slipped through quality control - especially considering the SM Nana, bought in the same size, is ... actually a decent enough fit... Of course it's also a possibility that this bra won't work for me and my tiny frame past J-cups, so next time around, I'm going to be trying out the S shape instead.

With some (read: alot) of alterations, I could probably make it fit - but that would require moving the straps over an inch, somehow shorten the band, and wear the bra with the pads at all times to combat the jiggle, and I just don't feel it's worth it all that hassle. At some point I would actually like to try a 55HH, or a sister size... for science! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

The lace detail on the Cappucci is what drew me to this bra, and it looks even better in person. This was my first Ewa PL bra, so I wasn’t really sure if this would work for me. It ended up being the first plunge bra that I’ve tried – maybe ever? – that actually keeps my boobs in place. Despite the low gore, I’m able to move around and even bend over without any spillage.

The band on this is firm without being too tight. Even though I ordered up a cup size, it is still a little too small on my bigger side. Somehow, this style ... also seems to exaggerate my asymmetry, which is usually not very noticeable. I can fix that by putting both inserts in one cup, but then both cups become too small, so I should probably just size up if I get another PL.

The wires are also a little wide for my frame, as are the straps. These are both common problems for me. The nude part of this bra is also darker than my pictures are showing – it’s more of a tan color, which is definitely too dark for me.
