So pretty and comfortable. Unlike some of the UK brands I've tried (I'm looking at you, Cleo), the fabric is really soft, not starched. The lace upper isn't stretchy lace like the Cleo lace, either, but that works because the shape of the cups accommodates my projection a lot better. I'm hoping that the lace not being stretchy might mean it will last longer, because it certainly wasn't inexpensive.
One thing to be aware of is that the bras are wildly inconsistently sized. When I was trying them on at the store, I would try one on that had a loose band, then try another of the same exact ...size/style in another color and not even be able to pull it tight enough to hook. Frustrating as a customer, and I don't understand why.
There are four rows of three hooks on the back of this bra, and I'm hoping that this means I can give it a little more life by continuing to tighten it past the time when I would otherwise have had to abandon it due to the elastic aging.

I had the SAME issue! One was sooo loose, like a 36 when it was a 34 and the band I ended up with was as tight as a 30 even though it was a 34! I wouldn't buy these online.

As I have lost weight I needed new bras because all my old ones were too big. I wasn't sure what size to go for in Kris Line with their sizing system, I had been wearing 75K and 75KK from them which had fitted okay before weightloss, so I chose 70J this time. It might also be the cut of this bra not working for me, because I don't have upper fullness. Anyway, overall it's a super comfortable bra, it fits relatively well, the band is comfortable and soft, the cups are a little shallow for me but I can jiggle my tissue into place to make the gore fit better so it's okay.
The embroidery with the gold detail is lovely and doesn't feel scratchy. The straps are per Kris Line standard quite wide but thick and soft, very comfortable. 3 hooks. Fully adjustable bands. This style is a half cup, not balconette.
It's definitely a bit big though, I could've sized down 1 more cup size, but it's fiiiineeee.
I guessed wrong on a Zulily sale, or this bra is mis-marked, or Kris Line has serious consistency issues. I think the cup would be perfect but the band would be too tight even with an extender. Maybe an 80/85 GG/H? Colorway would be nice for fair to medium skin tones. Materials and construction are lovely. Cups are very deep at the center so I think they would be best for fuller on top boobs. Band has 4 columns of 3 hooks.
