I'm normally a 30G-GG and the volume of this bra is about right. It's slightly minimizing on my very projected shape, but gives a nice round shape.
The stretch lace is very acommodating, but the top of the bra still cuts into the top of my slightly tall boobs. That's a chronic issue for me, and one that I can fix by removing the elastic from under the top of the lace and opening the upper cup up a bit, so not a deal breaker.
The straps just barely adjust long enough for me, though, and the front of the cup cuts into the front of my armpits, I'm ... guessing because the cups are too wide for me, and would be fine for someone who had a less extreme root width. (Mine is about 5 inches, at most.)
All in all could be a great casual everyday bra for someone, but it's not the magical neutral for me that I was hoping for.
If they would extend the Just Peachy range to GG, I think I would have a winner in a 30GG.
UPDATE: With the elastic under the lace removed, bra is comfortable and very wearable. I don't like how close the cup is to my armpits (due to wires too wide for me), but it's a much better fit than my freyas. Still think a 30GG (maybe with an extender) would have better proportions for me, but will call this a success and probably eventually but it in black.

Like the black, this bra is simple, elegant, light, and gives the breasts a rounded but natural look. The cups are stretchy and the band is very tight. It isn't the right size for me, so I can't comment on the fit.

In theory, this bra is everything I look for in a bra. It's simple, elegant, light, and gives the breasts a rounded but natural look. Because the cups are stretchy and also too big for me, it kind of distorts the shape. I think the band is also too small - I can constantly feel it on my back, and the it bulges under the band. I've since learned that Just Peachy lace bras run small in the band. I'd like to try it again in a 32E or F. Sometimes the gore really bothers me because it comes up high on my sternum.

I got the cobalt/coral colourway, and it's lovely. Bright, red-based blue, coral coloured embroidery and bows. The website pic shows more of a easter egg-esque periwinkle and salmon affair, but in person, both colours are much more saturated. Still more ultramarine than true cobalt, though. Everything looks very well put together.
It's slightly too closed on top for me, but nothing major. Adequate bottom projection, narrow wires. 3 hooks, woot woot! Band is soft and quite stretchy, but not to the point that it felt unsupportive or made me want to use the second hook. The only issue I have is a tiny bit of wrinkling at the apex of the smaller boob, like the bra was slightly pointier than I am. I think if my tissue was softer, it would have filled itself in

Nearly the perfect bra for me. Projected, Narrow, wire width is amazing, and not too short under the arm, or too short/tall at the gore.
Except, it's definitely an FoB style. The size is right - maybe on the small side of a 30, but I'm between sizes, so that works for me very well. I'm going to alter it to see if I can create more depth up top, because it causes quadboob on me (and doesn't exist in a 30GG to try), but is otherwise perfect.
It reminds me of Bravissimo Alana, but less of a vintage shape, a little more rounded, and not as tall in the cup, with narrower wires.

This bra felt HUGE compared to the other 30F bras that I ordered from Figleaves at the same time- a noticeably larger band and cups that I was swimming in. That being said, I was devastated that it wasn't gonna work https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":-(" /> So cute! Can't really comment on the fit because it was so large.

Shallow-friendly, material also feels nice.

Fits like somewhere between 28C or 28D. Closer to large 28C, I think. It seems to be a good shape for shallow, although the cups of my bra are dented for some odd reason and I can't straighten it out..

This is a very pretty bra, but probably more suitable for someone FOT. I'm FOB so is some minor wrinkling near the top, however the thin lace section is stretchy so its not really a huge deal. The band is tighter, and fits snugly.

This bra is almost perfect. The wires are perfect. The band is on the tight side but not uncomfortable, which means room to stretch and a longer usable life. The straps are some of the shortest I've encountered - I have them fully extended, but they do fit.
The only problem is that once again the bra cups are fuller on top than I am. They offer good support and shaping on the bottom/sides of my breasts, but they fold over at the seam between the lace only upper and the mesh lined lower cup. However, it should be a simple fix to tack down the fold for an ideal fit.
Finally, the cups have thin elastic around the top edge, which is a little strangely tight and cuts into my breast tissue slightly, but which should be fairly simple to stretch just enough to fix the issue. Over all, I'm counting this one a win!

This is a beautiful bra and I love the materials but it's laughably wrong for my shape. My build leans toward being broad/shallow, and while the wires are only a little bit narrow for me the cup is definitely too deep. The upper panel wrinkles badly, and the top edge is tight enough that if I did fill it there'd be quadboob all over the place. The band and straps are fine, the lower cup fits well, but that upper cup is a disaster. Really wanted this one to work, but I don't think it's meant to be.

oh this bra, this beautiful bra, how i wish we were meant to be! the colors is a sweet sheer butter yellow with white polka dots, lace trimmed cups, and a few small white bows. the straps are comfy, the cups are the narrowest ive tried in my size (5 inches!) , and the band runs snug enough for my in-between-32-and-34 band.
sadly, the fit of the cups is completely off. the bottom half of the cup is great- im lifted, rounded, super awesome. the top half is where i run into issues. to be honest, i was pretty sure this would happen, since ... my Tall/Large shallow shape means i need cups that aren't closed off on top, and this is a balconette cut, which usually ends badly. i thought perhaps this would be a stretchy mesh, but it isnt, so it both gapes in the top half of the lace (because i dont have much upper volume) and cuts in along the top of the cup (because of my tall root). i also get some wrinkling at the apex of the cup, and my short boobs cant get into the apex.
i wish this were in a half cup design! I'm absolutely devastated that its so pretty and so wrong for me https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> especially since the wires are so narrow- i only see 5 inch widths in a few cup sizes down, so i was hoping this would work out. i'll hopefully be able to sell it, or else 'll have to try and make the return date!
as a side note- i also have the matching panties in a size UK18, which is supposed to line up with my US 16 pant size, and they are HUGE. not sure if thats just me not being good at UK size charts, or f these run large, but i'll also be returning them/selling them.

All of these Just Peachy brand bras have the same issues. They run slightly small in the band (that's fine) and their straps don't adjust long enough.

This has an odd fit with an ugly pointy shape that cuts into the upper breast. Maybe a larger than normal cup size would have helped, but not so sure. Band runs on the tight side. The straps are also too short. I wouldn't recommend this bra to anyone.

The band seems to run slightly small (felt like a 28"), but the straps are WAY too short. The cup size also runs smalls, but the ridiculously short straps were probably not helping. Plus, the lace looks gaudy rather than sexy.

Cups are nice and narrow and deep. The underwire channels are a little longer than that underwires, so you can slide them away from the sternum for added comfort. Love the color and materials. I got the matching panty (thanks, Figleaves sale!) and the set looks fab.
Upon further wearing and review, I'd have to say this bra doesn't give me enough room in the top of the cup, and squeezes some tissue overflow into the armpit area. I think a larger cup might solve this. I did some model comparisons, and this bra is similar to the Cleo Lucy in 32F - I will probably be listing it soon.

This fit well and I have shallow breasts! Great bra, nice quality. So cheap when on sale! Even better :]

This bra fits me beautifully https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> it has a decent amount of immediate projection, doesn't cut in on top (nor does it gap). It feels a lot like the Cleo Lucy.

The first home measuring I did have me 30G so I ordered this off of Fig Leaves to try on. The gore tacks fine and the band was comfortable, possibly a little loose on me, but the cups seem to be too large for my breasts. I filled out the bottom of the cups fine but there was quite a lot of space on top. It also have me a somewhat cone shape but that might have been because it was too large. Perhaps this was just a shape issue and this bra might work better for someone more FoT or projected. I've remeasured myself a couple of times since then have gotten a range of 28G/30FF/G so I shall keep trying a variety of things.
