I have shallow & wide breasts and this fits wonderfully on me. I am 30B in Aerie bras, so I don't know its La Senza or Aerie that runs true to size. I measure as a 28C/30B so I think La Senza may run small in the cups.
I altered this bra, because its straps were too far apart to be comfortable. They interfered with my arm movements. After that it was one of my most comfortable bras before my boobs migrated and outgrew it. Here I should mention that I think this bra runs small - it fit me when I wore a 30C in other bras. So far it hasn't stretched out as far as I know. Mind, I'm not the first owner and these bands are supposed to run very tight - mine feels like a regular 30 band. All the comments about comfort etc. refer to the bra in its altered state!
Extremely tight band. I have a 30" underbust and I could barely hook a 32DD. Cups were also very tight, gives me a multiple-boob look. However it's very pretty and the padding is removable for those who don't want push-ups. It takes a while to stretch out.
Very comfortable and soft, but doesn't give me the best shape. Feels like the cup doesn't have enough depth and makes me look look a little flatter. Still a good everyday type bra for me as it's super comfortable and doesn't show under tight clothing.
I have this in stripe design and lace trimming. It's a pretty, inexpensive bra. Soft and comfortable. The cups are lightly lined. It's the wrong size for me. Too big in the band and too small in the cups. What annoys me about this bra is the straps. I have two of the same bra and both fall back to the same strap length after adjusting. I could not shorten the straps for the life of me as it just slides back to the original length after a while! Never seen a bra that acts quite like it! This was my first La Senza bra and probably my last since they don't make these things in my size.
At first when I saw this bra online, I thought "Wow! super cute, great price - score!" however, when I got it, it was a different story. The first thing I noticed was how "cheap" it felt - the fabric is scratchy, and it just doesn't feel like a high quality garment. As for the fit - the straps are VERY wide set - such that they dig into the front of my shoulders where my arms meet my torso, as well as at my armpits where the straps are joined to the cups. If wearing this bra all day, it can get quite painful. As well, I seem to be constantly spilling out of this cup - my boobs fit perfectly in the cups of a Freya Deco 36G, but this in a 36G doesn't seem to come close to containing me - lots of side boob! This bra definitely produces cleavage! But it seems to be a bit more shallow of a cup.
This is a really nice bra, but ridiculously sized, I feel it would be more true to a 30C/28D.
It's a good balcony bra, looks good under square cut tops/dresses and very cute with the matching thong. It's good for me because the underwires are short and the gore doesn't cut me like some other balcony bras, it provides enough support for someone with breasts of this size and the lace trim, and pleating down the middle of the cup are nice and don't show much unless under something very tight.
On me (28/30,DD/E) this bra creates a quadboob effect to the extent of more than 1 cup size too small, and the one time I wore it my nipples kept making an appearance. The band however fits nicely as a small 30 on the loosest hook and a 28 on the tightest, I'd say.
I will not be keeping this bra, although if it was still in stores (I bought it on clearance) I'd buy it in a bigger size and keep it.
love-love-love this bra! it's gorgeous and gives a great shape. Tha band is tight and unstretchy - I have worn this bra for several month and I'm still using the first hooks. It's very supportive and comfortable. The only thing - I probably need a cup size bigger cause sometimes I got a quadraboob effect
Holy S! La Senza makes the perfect bras for small girls. A sister brand to VS, they are more moderately priced, they actually carry 30-bands in store (!!!), and the cups definitely run small. I recently returned a whole load of 30A bras to VS because they were gaping all over the place and did not work with my breast shape. The shape of La Senza fits me perfectly, and I completely fill the 30B cups! Way to make me feel normal, accepted, and AWESOME, La Senza! Great customer service in the store, too. The only con I can think of is that the quality seems a touch worse than VS - but these bras ran half the price, so what can you expect?
My Beyond Cleavage is the All Over Magnificant Lace Bra with Front Closure (113009-041). It's more of a special occasion bra that gives plenty of oomph, even for small chests!

This style in particular is pretty cool. It has removable cookies inside for an extra boost. Taken out, this is like a lightly lined/molded bra. With them in, I get close to quad-boob! Not sure what the deal is with this, but out of the two Show Offs I have, one has multi-way straps and an extra little flap over the pocket to keep the cookie in place, where the other has plain straps and plain open-ended pocket.

This style in particular is a great everyday bra for me. There is a little bit of pushup padding inside, but nothing too extreme.
This bra fits really comfy, however it doesn't hold my entire boob. The cup is to small and breast tissue escapes out underneath my arms. The is also way to loose and can pull several inches away from my back. The bra has held up really well for washing in the washing machine and air drying.
Suuuuuper stretchy band, very soft fabric. A bit of a push up. Straps can be converted to be closer together or crossed. Underwire is padded, so very comfortable.
This is a deep plunge, multiway bra with molded, lightly padded cups and removable inserts for push-up or asymmetry correction. The straps can be converted into a halterneck style.
I love that this bra has narrow "spaghetti" style straps - they're perfect for wearing discretely under summer tops. It's a beautiful purple color, and the wings are made of pretty stretch lace.
Sadly, this bra shows all the classic signs of too loose a band and too small a cup on me. I will be listing it.
I wanted this to fit. It's pretty, with delicate daisy lace all over the cups. I liked the shape and lift it gave, as well as the cleavage. The straps are a good length and the band felt firm, but it's a sizetoo small and I had quadboob.
Since I got this high street brand bra dirt cheap on eBay, I'm surprised with how well it fits. It's a 32F but the band fits like a regular 30 or a Freya 28. On the closest hook it's tight enough for me, which is fine by me. The design is really cute, but the true balcony (halfcup-ish) shape really beats it all. I had noticed before that the classic La Senza cut is perfect for full-on-top girls, and gives fantastic uplift with a nice, rounded shape. No cone-boobs. It is lightly padded/moulded, but not anywhere as stiff as the Freya Deco, let alone the Fantasie Smoothing Balcony. The ...bra has seams, but they are modest enough to be worn underneath a not-too-thin T-shirt. (NB this is not a T-shirt bra, not for white camis!) 90% Polyesther, 10% Elasthan (bit stretchy for my taste, but it does make it very comfortable).
This bra is very comfortable and makes for an attractive set of breasts. The support is not the best (It's not that firm) but it does give great uplift and is really cute.
If it had been available in 30FF, I would have bought that one, but I'm happy enough with the bra as it is. Read more 96 more words
At first, this bra was a good surprise: high-street, well-fitted, gorgeous.
But it didn't last long: the band stretched within a couple of weeks, and the underwires are definitely too long for me (again, that might be specific to me). Also, somehow, the cups suddenly didn't fit anymore.
Or maybe I bought it too small to begin with... but G is the biggest cup in this model.
