My shape: FOB, soft tissue, narrow shoulders and roots, projected. My perfect bra is Ewa Michalak BM style
I bought this about a month and a half ago, when I saw that Zulily was having a Kris Line sale. I don't know much about the brand, but I know it's Polish and they seem to follow the same sizing guidelines as Ewa Michalak, for the most part. I researched them a bit before finally deciding on this bikini top in size 70G, which would be UK 32G/US 23i, my normal size. There's hardly any data on Kris Line bikinis, so I had to gauge what size to get based ... on the bra measurements that have been added here.
Anyways, I finally received the bikini today, after much anticipation. Maybe I had FINALLY found a well-fitting bikini top! When I opened the plastic it was wrapped in and saw how small the cups were, my heart sank. You know that feeling... like you KNOW it isn't gonna fit, you can just tell my looking at it! But then you think, well, maybe looks are deceiving and you try it on with your hopes up, only to have them dashed to the ground when you see breast tissue spilling out of the front, center, sides, everywhere on the too-small cup. How in the heck could this be a UK 32G?? There's no way, it must be mislabeled or something, or Kris Line runs at least 2 sizes smaller in the cup for their bikinis or something.
Yeah, so that's been my morning. Not great, to be honest.
Despite the bad fit, this bikini is super pretty! The color is a really gorgeous, deep emerald green. It really doesn't look like a full coverage style to me; the cups are pretty short, and looks more balconette-ish, but that may be because of the too-small cup size. The clasp is a golden metal snap together thing, and the straps are nice and wide. The fabric is really soft and has a sort of shine to it. Inside the cups, there's a layer of black mesh along the bottoms.
I really want to try more Kris Line, both bras and bikinis, but now I'm at a loss as to what size I should even start with. I would definitely try this particular bikini in a larger size! It's really pretty, and I had fantasized all month about how cute it would be paired with some flower print retro high waisted bottoms!
Ah, well. It's not to be, I guess.

Oh I loveddd this color from the moment it first came out. It's such a shame it didn't fit because it's a beauty. I'm sorry it didn't fit! Hopefully Magda will be able to help you out a bit? Maybe she has size ideas for Kris line!
Really though, judging by your bikini and my sports bra, maybe ordering two cups up wouldn't be such a bad thing?
