I bought my first Le Mystere Sophia Lace Bra a very long time ago randomly from Nordstrom Rack, and I have loved it ever since. I bought the bra in 30C and it seemed to fit quite well before scooping. It gave a really nice rounded, lifted shape, and I was impressed by how TTS the 30 band was.
However, now I realize that this bra was always too small for me, since I was not a 30C at the time I purchased it and was actually a 30D. It is a plunge cut and the shape of the cup is somewhere between the Masquerade Alice ... and Ewa Michalak M, so it is designed for FOT shapes, and can accommodate more upper fullness, which is why I wasn't totally spilling out of the 30C despite it being too small. Recently, I was able to pick up three bras in 30DD/E, which is my current normal sister size and my normal size in Le Mystere.
However, as I had to size down in the Masquerade Alice to a 30D, it looks like I will need to size down in this bra as well, since I am not very full on top. I also found that the 30DD/E is designed to be too wide for my frame, so the outer cups are too high under my arm, and every time I move, it gaps horribly. There is also some slight gapping in this size when just standing. It seems to run a half cup big, though probably not a full cup big. The depth of this size is actually a little shallower than Alice in 30D.
In addition, the bottom of the cup is quite shallow and there is not much immediate projection. Because of this, I believe there's a bit of a manufacturing issue when molding the foam for the cups, as on some of the Sophia bras, I've noticed a bit of a ridge where the bottom of the foam meets the wire, so that there is no room for the breasts to sit right against the wire. It is more prominent on some of the bras I have tried than others, so I don't think this is intentionally part of the design. In this bra, it is very prominent. Because of this, and probably because the wires are too big, I found that the bra wouldn't sit properly and there appeared to be space at the bottom of the cup, when in reality I think it's just the shape of the foam that's stopping the wires from sitting properly.
However, the bra is super pretty, and I just love the way it looks. The outer cup is covered with a layer of floral jacquard lace with a slight crossdye effect. The cradle and band are also fully covered in lace. I like that the band is actually made from mesh topped with lace, and has a proper wide bottom edge elastic, so it's not one of those flimsy lace bands that so many brands love to make. While it's narrow, it actually feels firm and supportive! The straps are narrow, but they do get a bit wider as sizing goes up. The front of the straps is covered with textured picot edged ribbon, while the adjustable portion at the back is plain satin. Fully adjustable straps would have been better, but the length of these isn't too bad. The only decoration is a lace bow at the gore with a small teardrop crystal charm.
I really wished that the 30DD/E bras worked for me, but it looks like I will need to hunt down a 30D to get my best fit in this style! Since I sized down to a 30D in the Masquerade Alice, I expect that the two bras to fit quite similarly in the same size.
