    Didn't fit

    NOTE: i did NOT find this to be the same as the Florence, as suggested by Bratabase. i own both. i feel they are close, but definitely different enough that if one fits you the other may not.

    this is one of my biggest bra disappointments to date- not nearly as bad as the Tuttir Rouge Frankie incident, but close. ive lusted after this bra for ages, and i finally took the plunge and had it ordered from the UK in a group order, waited a long while for it to arrive, and found out it doesnt fit. i thought that since Florence mostly works for me in 32FF, ... and this is supposedly the same cut, it would also work. nope!

    * the cups close off much more sharply than Florence- a major downfall in a bra for me and my tall roots. it leads to an awkward muffin top boob, but at least isnt visible under clothing.

    *the band is much firmer than Florence, and both were bought brand new. if i have an extender it's comfortable, but it may take a while to break in as i need it on the last or second set of extender hooks. its a stretchy satin type material, not mesh like Florence. i like the material better, but it means i'd likely need a 34 band.

    *the straps are different than Florence as well (which i knew about at the get go) but i actually like them better. they arent set as far out, and they are fully adjustable. the stretchy material is great and soft compared to the sometimes scratchy material of the embroidered Florence straps.

    *the gore feels higher and a bit less stable, and so the gore attempts to only tack on one side and overlap the wires as it fights my center fullness. its not a huge issue, but it can cause the fit of the cup side that isn't tacking to skew.

    *as with Florence, this cup isnt well suited to my low apex and has some space inside the cup above my nipple. it seems more extreme in this than in Florence, but as both are molded cups it doesnt show under clothes, it just means i dont get as much lift or support as i could in a better fitting cup.

    on the plus side:

    * NARROW WIRES. HALLELUJAH. 5.5inches you guys, masquerade has all the 5.5inch wire width 32FF bras. if only their bands fit me, augh!

    *its gorgeous! gorgeous. prettiest bra ive ever seen, and i may just keep it anyway because ive wanted it so long. the background color is a very pale peach with a mesh overlay that has tiny dots on it. the raspberry colors lace embroidery is lovely and i love where it comes just up over the top edge of the cup. the strap attachment is unique, its a tiny triangle of 2 straps that meet the main strap.

    *the materials are fairly comfortable, and i feel like the molded cup will soften with wear.

    * i dont notice the embroidery or muffin boob showing through shirts, surprisingly!


    im torn on keeping this or selling it. if i can get what i paid back, i may sell it. but, its so pretty and i've pined after it for so long that i may be convinced to keep it despite the less than perfect fit.
