When I saw Katherine Hamilton bras on sale, I knew I couldn’t miss the opportunity to try one. I got this for a *beautiful* price on NET-A-PORTER!
I got this Nina in black and another Nina in pink, same size, that I didn’t bother adding to Bratabase because I just assumed the measurements would be near enough identical. They fit the same essentially. I was incredibly sad that this didn’t fit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> too small. It was fine when I first put it on but after a swoop and scoop, I had quadboob galore! Probably the most I’ve had in a bra in a ... while. I returned both bras.
What I loved:
This bra is gorgeous on! I wasn’t actually that excited about the design when I ordered it online, I’ve never been a fan of the whole ‘see-through bra’ look. But it’s beautiful in person, amazing high quality material and careful design. I love it! Looks very sexy on too, I was definitely feeling myself lol.
The cups are narrow which is brilliant to see from a UK brand, and I know a lot of people will be happy to hear this. Was lovely not having cups stretching to my underarm.
I think the cups have a good amount of projection and, had this bra fit, it would have been fine for me. Although, I can’t say this for certain obviously.
The band is nice and firm! I love a firm band because they ensure where my bra sits in the morning is still where it’s sitting in the evening. Fit perfectly on me (I have a 28” snug underbust).
What I didn’t like:
The only negative I have about this bra is that it comes up small in the cup! This is a 28HH but, based on the way it fit me, I definitely think it comes up more like a 28H.
I really wish this had fit!! KH don’t go above a HH cup, so I did initially have an exchange coming in size 30HH but they emailed me yesterday saying that size sold out whilst they were processing my return/new order. So sad. All in all, I would definitely recommend KH bras to those they’ll fit. Definitely worth trying!
For reference: I have even, close set, inner full, somewhat firm breasts that sit low on my chest (I think). I don’t currently have any bras that fit properly — my 28HH’s feel tight/quad slightly and my 30H’s are too loose in the band. I’ve ordered two Panache 28J’s (hello wide wires) to see if those fit comfier.

Does that Italian label say negative 1 double H? 😂😂
Anyway, I feel your pain. I kind of feel between a 30 and 28 band at the moment too. Next time I get a UK bra I might try out a 28HH.
