5'3, 26HH, FOT, tall and narrow roots, center full, projected, super close set and average root placement (high set, low set etc.)

This bra is so pretty! It has an almost bridal vibe. The silk slings add a touch of luxury. Definitely an "investment" piece that should be worn under a white version of one of those "my rich husband died of mysterious circumstances" robes.

Why have you betrayed me so!? I was so excited to have a pure white unlined bra to ruin and discolor under pretty sundresses while I'm sweating my balls off in 90° heat this summer! But this bra wouldn't cooperate with ... my ideas. The gore is far too high and wide for me. The cups are too wide and are slightly shallow. Not enough to make them unprojected, just less projected than I personally need. I'd say it's great for average width and average projection. The wires slide down on me and the upper cups dig into my roots, creating quadboob on both sides. The straps are halfway adjustable, I have them almost fully extended, this bra could not accommodate someone taller or lower set than me. The straps are also and super wide set for me. I can handle wide set straps most of the time by angling them in. But that amplified the pain from the plastic loops on my tail of spence, completing the trifecta of torture that Katherine calls a bra. (Straps, gore, cup width). The band is pretty snug, definitely a true 26 band. Overall, this bra is a femme fatale, absolutely stunning, but it'll kill you slowly and painfully.

You made me laugh so hard with the way described your plans for this bra and what summer is like and how this bra just wouldn’t cooperate! Brightened my morning. It is hot and super humid in summer here too and I know just what you mean. “Sweaty crotch season” will be starting here very soon. I hope you find a cooperative summer bra. I think I might go the underwired sports bra route. I think one of those has the best chance of wicking enough moisture to mostly avoid prickly heat rash, maybe....
Good luck! May your search end successfully before the yearly self-marinating begins!
