This bra is really pretty, but it's just not that right fit :/. The cups are a little wider than I'm used to, but I'm unsure if I need that or not. The straps sit too far off my shoulders for my liking, and the lace on top folds over (I assume this shape is not for me). The fits well on the middle or tightest hooks.
Oh my god I love this bra. It's perfect! Unfortunately, I have no idea where to get more. This is the first bra that I've tried that fit in both the band and the cup and had a short enough gore that it didn't stab me or put pressure in uncomfortable places. Such a tragedy that it is a limited edition bra.
The cups on this bra are too large for me. The band is comfortable without being too loose, but the straps feel too wide apart. Will try to repurchase in 30DD and see if it's any better.
Although the label says 30G, Marks and Spencers skip FF cup so this is actually a 30FF. The band runs tight on this, and would be best for a 28-29" under bust.
The good: Small gore Lovely colour Band feels stable and secure Straps are comfortable
The bad: East-west look Cups too separated Really bad cup grading Height of cups; way too tall
I think I put the wrong model name there. O_O Will try to fix that. Ok.So when I first got this bra,my measurements were around 38" underbust and 49" bust.(now 51-52") I got the same kind in a 36E a month before,and while wearable,I quickly realized the band was too big (had it on tightest hook most of time,modal is crazy stretchy stuff),and the cups too small.So I found a 34G and got that one.When I put it on,it was actually the first bra that fit me almost perfectly.I was so excited.lol.Though as the day went on,I realized it was a half cup to cup size too small,but it was ...still loads better than most bras.It made me about 2 inches smaller with my bust measurement. I kept wearing it till my boobs grew a little,then I gained some weight which made them grow more.These photos were taken about a month ago and as you can see it's too small and was no longer comfortable.But now that I'm bigger,I can barely get it on and it just stretches across my chest,I can't even swoop and scoop,like my 36E did a month ago.I sold that one to a friend.Since it's so comfortable when it fits right (memory foam and modal is a winner),I'm going to try to find a 38G or 38GG on ebay and shorten the band if necessary.I don't believe they make any in an H cup for that model. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Just checked and found both a 38GG and 40GG...will try to get both.I'm gonna have to mutilate that 40 band,but am pretty sure the cups would fit well.
This band is tight. I mean REALLY tight. It's much better suited to a 26 than a 28. It's very pretty, but I can't speak much about the fit since I couldn't get it on
This bra, and others with the same cut, tend to be too "closed" on top for me, so the cup edge cuts in very easily. I solved the problem by removing the thin strip of elastic that runs along the top edge of the cup (my "fit report" refers to how it fit without modification). As with many Limited Collection bras, the band runs about a size small. My underbust is 67cm/26.3" measured snugly or 63cm/24.8" as tight as possible, and this bra feels fairly tight on the loosest hooks.
ETA: after wearing it for a day, I noticed that the straps were so wide-set they tended to cut in when I moved my arms forward. This would probably only get worse in larger cup sizes with wider wires, considering how the straps attach to the outer edge of the cup.
I actually got this in a cup size smaller than I usually would, and somehow it fits. I have shallow breasts, and this looks great and is very comfortable. There's plastic boning in the sides on the band to keep it from rolling up. There is a little bit of pushup padding in the bottom, but it's rather small and quite subtle, which I like
This bra comes up far too small. Firstly, the band is very tight - I can just about get the bra on, but can barely breathe and it would be very uncomfortable, probably painful, to wear for more than a minute or two. This would be good for anyone who wants a 26 band, and I imagine it would still be fairly snug then! I could just about manage to measure it at 27 inches stretched.
Now, the cups. I found out after I bought this bra that M&S miss out an FF cup and go straight to G, but even so, they are very small, and quite shallow. I didn't take a photo of me wearing the bra because it was just ridiculous - quadboobing like mad everywhere!
IMO this is far from wearable as a 28G, but at a rough guess I would recommend this size for perhaps a 26E/F or something around there? Let me know if you want to give it a go!
Soft, high quality feel, comfortable fit and design, but just too small. I want this exact bra in DD! The straps clip to racer-back in the back. Amazing cleavage (though for me, the small cup is causing quad boob.)
This is a quite lovely bra, but it is way too small. Because of the shape of the cups, the lining down the center bunches up making it quite visible (because it is too small).
The center gore lays flat, but seemed to cut into me.
Since the bra didn't fit that well I can't give that much of a review for it.
I have 3 of these bras when I thought I was a 28 F I bought them. I don't know if they run small because no E or F cups have been fitting. If I could do it all over I would of got 3 sizes bigger. Mark & spencer sizing is different just in case someone doesn't know. 28 G is UK 28FF, 28 GG is 28G in UK sizing; 28H in M&S is 28GG in UK sizing. If you wanted a bigger band you could wear 30F=30F; 30G=30FF; 30GG=30G.
The band is way tighter than a 28, I can only get it to stretch to 27 pulling hard. My ribcage is 27", but I don't like very tight bands so this is no good for me.
It is labelled 28G, but M&S skip out FF cup, so it's actually a 28FF, although I'd call it a 28G really.
This is the first bra I bought in order to try and determine my size... I love the colour and the texture of the bra, though, not too keen on the cups' mesh.
Band- On the tightest hook I could immediately pull it a few inches, so it is probably slightly bigger than the average 30inch band. However, the band is generally comfortable.
Gore- The gore really rubs me, but I'm not sure why. Also, it slight sticks out at the bottom away from my chest.
Wire- The wire is comfy and I think, encases all of my breast tissue!
Cups- I can't quite fill the mesh part, or the bottom. However, the actual cup part seems to be tighter than the mesh and if I pull the mesh part away, it is slightly tight on my breast, but with the mesh down, it is pushed away.
Straps- The straps seem fine, however, where they join the cups the fabric is sort of loose.
This bra is a bit finicky. The band runs quite tight, there's very minor pushup padding, and the cups gape wide open. The wires were too narrow for me, though. Not holding onto this one.
This bra is super pretty and I really wish it would fit. There is some mesh with an elastic on the top that cuts in and makes the bra not lie flat. It is also to big in the band for me and can fit my hand up underneath.
Fits a little smaller than the black one. Otherwise super comfortable, gore doesn't seem to dig in. wires about a thumb width to wide, but it seems to hold the migrated side boob. So it is good for now.
The gore digs a little into my chest, but I am not sure if its just because I am not use to it. I will try bending it out. The wires seem a little wide, maybe a thumb width, but seems to pull all the migrated side boob into the bra and keeps it there. Super comfortable other than the gore, which I may just get use to anyways. Band feels snug and quite supportive and didn't ride during the day. It was awesome.
