I decided to try this bra because I thought it would be like Natori Feathers & it was on sale for a great price on Amazon. I was wrong - it's nothing like Feathers. This bra just didn't fit me correctly no matter how much adjusting I did.
First - the gore. Stabby and painful.
Second - the cups. I filled the bottom and sides of the cup with no issues. The top (lace-only) portion of the cup had a gap because the cups are tall and my roots are not - a shape mismatch but not a deal breaker in my book. The lace overlay has elastic ... along the edge; this caused quadding in the center.
I also had an odd rippling/waving at the top of the moulded part of the cup. It stayed no matter how much I tightened or loosened the straps. I think this was caused because the straps are attached to the lace overlay and it is stretchy by nature; any amount of tension will cause the ripples. I think maybe a cup size smaller would fix that ripple issue but would exacerbate the quadding from the elastic edge. It's almost like with this design you have to choose between quadding and ripples.
It was too much of a hassle to return (UK seller) so I am putting this in my donation pile.
Edited to add - This review was for the colorway 'milkshake' (?). No boys were brought to the yard. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

I have the same experience. I tried it in 28F (my usual Freya size is 30E) and it doesn't fit me. The lace cut in to my breasts and make quadboobs and also makes pointy look.
I really want to see someone who is satisfied with this bra.
