I normally wear a 28DD and this triangle-style bralette in a darker shade of red is quite obviously too small in the cups and too big in the band for me. It is recommended for 30 bands and the company only makes bras in cup sizes A-D at the moment. I still love the look and wear it on the tightest hook even though I get a bit of quadboob. I am FOB, so if you are FOT or even fullness you might get more quadboob. My guess is that it would fit for someone wearing around a 30B or maybe 30C.
The band is made out of a ... firm fabric with almost no give, with an elastic band added to the back portion, and the centimeters on the back around the hooks are two elastic bands covered in the same material as the rest of the band. The cups are made of lace with a geometric pattern and have a single dart each. The lace material itself is not stretchy but due to the pattern it does have a bit of give. The wings have two strips of boning each: One where the straps attach and the other about halfway between the straps and the cup (boning channel is only visible on the inside). The straps are half-adjustable. All visible hardware is golden.
When I wear this bralette on the loosest hook, the front will move up onto my breasts. I still get that a bit of that when I close it on the tightest hook but I believe this is rather due to missing cup depth. As I said, I get quadboob as the cups are both too small and too shallow. The straps are a bit too short for my taste but then I need quite long straps. The bralette still serves a decorative function and I do get enough compression from it to prevent bouncing.
Unfortunately, the fabric between the hooks was already fraying after a couple of wears. It looks like that part is covered in some fabric as opposed to the plain ones I have seen in other bras, and I'm afraid I caught the fabric with a hook early on. The quality of the finish seems good to my untrained eye and I really like this "clean" lace look, but I'm not sure I would spend that much money on a bralette again if it does not fit better.
