    28HH

    Didn't fit

    This is the outlet version of the bra, which on the website is listed as having a few issues compared to the regular:

    – on some body types the outer quarter cup silk sling may cause slight indentation affecting the shape of the overall cup.
    – the underwires are one size wider and deeper than our Grade A pieces.
    – customer feedback suggests that a band size smaller in this item may offer the best fit if a tight band is preferred e.g. if you usually wear a 32GG, try a 30H

    I agree with all of these points. There's plenty of room in the cup for my breasts, but there's a ... touch of in cup quadding where the silk sling cuts in. I suspect but can't confirm that in smaller cup sizes this wouldn't be an issue, as the silk sling just seems to be a touch too small for the amount of projection in the cup. It's also possible that more FOT shapes wouldn't suffer this. The wires are wider than I would like, but not desperately wide, and don't cause me pain.

    My underbust is around 29 inches, so I'm always looking for small 30s and big 28s, and I would say if you're between band sizes it's definitely worth going for the smaller. Otherwise, I'd suggest sticking with your normal band size. The straps are also quite wide set, which isn't too much of a problem for me, but would be an issue for those with narrower shoulders.

    But let's ignore the fit for a moment. This bra is beautiful. It's absolutely luxuriously made, and makes me feel utterly decadent. The Katherine Hamilton outlet section is a gateway and I've been changed as a person. I lust over their bras, and I'm going to be constantly checking for sales. Be careful when taking the plunge for the sake of your wallet.

    24E

    Didn't fit

    This bra is a cup size bigger than I take, so it was expected to not be fitting well here. But I'm very impressed with how true to size this bra is. I went for the 24 band expecting it to measure larger at around 25-25.5" stretched, but it stretches to exactly 24". This is great news for me as KH don't make 24 bands anymore and means I can get away with the 26 band (assuming the sizing is consistent throughout all bra styles).

    The bra looks very nice when worn and many of the materials feel soft and good quality, however, unfortunately there was a major comfort issue for me with the inner band elastic and strap elastic.

    Overall I'd be happy to buy from this brand again and try out more styles, but unfortunately for me they only start at 26F now.

    30HH

    Didn't fit

    So this is where the side support sling issue became truly comical. There's now more than enough room in the lacy portion of the cup even with the pressure shoving my center fullness upward, and the cup wrinkles on top -- and my tissue spills forward out of it, haha.

    Otherwise, we've got nicely-narrow cups and a decent amount of projection; KHI is definitely trying to compete with the "Polish" shape, and their materials feel luxe.

    I've reviewed this bra grand total of four times now! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    Katy at KHI has offered to create a custom version of the Sophia for me without the sling; she says that they have other styles in the works that wouldn't have it, but how about this in the meantime? Incredibly touching. I can hardly wait!

    30H

    Didn't fit

    The bigger I go in the cup on this bra, the more clear it becomes that my main problem is the side support sling, which is pushing my center-full breasts closer together and causing them to bubble up in the middle. Looks fine from the front, but from the sides there's visible funny wrinkling in the side support sling, and it cuts into my tissue.

    26F

    Hasn't set fit

    I was expecting a pale pink/peach, but it's actually a darker peach/coral. The cups are narrow and projected, the band is perfect, and I just really like it. It's not the best fit for my larger side, but good enough to keep if a 26FF doesn't work out.

    Edit: 26FF was actually a much better fit.

    34FF

    Fits

    This was a total impulse buy. And the fit is amazing. I was very lucky! I ordered 1 cup size larger than I usually am because it was the only size I could potentially fit in they had in their outlet. The reason it was discounted that much (35£ instead of 98£!!) is that it has a weird shape with the outer sling pressing too much on the breasts and giving a sort of quad boob but at the base of the breasts (see pictures). But if I am not wearing close fitting cloths it is not a problem. So for the confort and the quality of this bra it was well worth the impulse https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

    30G

    Didn't fit

    The fabric of this bra is beautiful and soft and it feels sturdy. The underwire is very stiff but does not dig into my sternum. The band is wide and not too stretchy, maybe a little too tight but wearable. The cup fit is difficult to assess because of the outer silk sling, but after wearing it a few times I think that the cups are too wide. My tissue is very soft and the side sling might just be pushing my breasts more towards the center. The gore is not narrow enough but better than most. The lace cups do not show any wrinkling or gaping but after wearing for an hour or so there is a small amount of empty space at the top, which I almost didn't notice.

    32G

    Didn't fit

    I previously tried this bra in a 30G sample size, and thought I needed to go up a cup size. I also wanted to try a bigger band size for comfort. The verdict?

    First, the 30 was fine; the 32 fastens comfortably on the tightest hook. Second, the cup upgrade... while it should be fine by the measurements, doesn't seem to be quite enough for my tissue. This might also be a shape problem. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> But it sort of looks like going up a size (and no longer squeezing my tissue into a round ball) made the need for a bigger size even ... more apparent -- I have photos now showcasing quadding, and also the side sling is cutting in in a funny way that I think would be resolved in a larger cup size.

    I still love everything about this bra's appearance and materials, as well as the company's business model (made entirely in the UK). The lace is so gorgeous, and the sling is silk, and it feels like a much more luxurious bra than others I've tried in higher price points. (The Sophia is currently ~90GBP.)

    A word of caution for BTB users who need longer straps: the straps on this bra are only about half adjustable. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I wear most of my bras with the straps almost completely loose, and this feels a little tight on my shoulders in that condition, so take that for what it's worth.
