I see I'm not the only person who got this bra in the HauteLook sale!
I have shallow, conical breasts that are moderately wide. I am also fairly athletic and have prominent back muscles.
I had purchased a Mimi Holliday padded super plunge previously in 30D, but the 28 band is so much better for me. Other than that, the two bras are essentially the same. The cut and the fit seem to be identical.
Basically, this bra fits me perfectly (for the most part). The fabric is so comfortable. The gore is just the right height.
@turtlegurl38 mentioned that the cups run small - ... I think I disagree. I think that it's just an extraordinarily shallow bra. I'm guessing that you should go with whatever size you wear in the Curvy Kate Tempt Me (SG4001) (another bra that is very shallow).
Cons:
- Like the turtlegurl38 's bra, mine also does the flippy thing on the top edge of the cup. It's frustrating because the bra is perfectly fit, but the fabric is bulky and really sticks out at the edge of the cup.
- Straps are very stretchy and don't really adjust short enough. A pox on manufacturers that don't offer fully adjustable straps!!
- The straps are set a bit far apart for me (a problem I have with most bras, though).
- There's only one hook per column. Why?!
- My experience with my old Mimi Holliday Azure Allure Silk Satin & Lace Super Plunge Bra (AW12-200) tells me that you MUST baby this bra. Do not wash this in the washing machine (even on delicate cycle in a bag)! If you wash it in the washing machine, the elastic in the band will wear out ridiculously fast.
