My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.
This bra was another failure for me. I sized down in the cups since I had read reviews and seen pictures here about it running large, and it's still slightly too large. This bra has two parts: one part underneath with the actual cups, and another panel that goes on top where you can adjust depending on the level of impact (low, medium, high). The inner part where the cups are run very large. There's some empty fabric in the middle of the cups, near the bottom, it's just big. I ... adjusted the top panel on the tightest setting, but I got so much movement, I don't feel comfortable with it for high-impact activities. The fabric of the cups has no give, similar to another Glamorise style I tried that was also too big in the cups: http://bra.pe/X0oW/
Another thing that bugged me a lot: there's a lot of extra fabric near the wires, like instead of encasing the wires, they have an extra "flap" of fabric which seems like very poor design, I can see this bra irritating and maybe even chaffing during exercise. It would've been infinitely better if this part was sown and not let loose like it is (I added some pictures of this).
The band runs true to size for a 32, stretching to around 31.8". It feels comfortable and supportive to me on the tightest set of hooks. The straps are comfortable and padded.
Overall, I don't think I will try this bra a cup size down since the band is already on the tightest hooks. If you want to try this style, I recommend sizing down one, if not two cup sizes, and keeping your regular band size based on my experience.
