    Hasn't set fit

    Profile: even-to-full on bottom breasts, splayed, narrow, projected, short roots.

    This bra is gorgeous, although the cobalt colourway was not as saturated as I had expected it to be. I still love it very much and looks very good on my skintone as a muted royal blue. Construction feels sturdy and high quality. I have to say that the material doesn't feel as high quality as my older Paige bras, but it's better than most full-bust brands.

    I agree that this bra fits a full cup bigger. All of the Miss Mandalay bras I've owned tend to be small in the band as well, so this fits more like a ... 28F on me. The wires are one of the most narrow I've ever tried and at least in this colourway, I find that the cups of this are rather deep too. This bra fits narrower and deeper than my Paige bras do, although the Paiges are an older style. This bra is deeper and narrower than the Freya plunges. The ribbon cuts in a bit, so it's not for those who are fuller on top. The shape is naturally rounded.

    Didn't fit

    At this point I have other bras that fit me better and that I like more. But, I still really like this.
    The band, straps, and wires are all comfortable for me. I have zero complaints about this bra except that it's more of a 30E than a DD.

    I do have one rave though. The color! It's so pretty! I love blues and a cobalt blue is so fun. It's why I really want the Comexim Sapphire, but I've seen a few of those that are more purple. This isn't, it's electric.

    I will say that the ribbon edge on the Paris doesn't seem like the best quality. It's fraying where it connects to the straps. It hasn't interfered with fit yet, more annoying to look at than anything else at this point. But, I feel like it shouldn't be happening. The bra isn't that old and it's well cared for, so what's up, Paris?

    Ultra Blue colorway

    Didn't fit

    I saw this bra on mega mega sale a while back from somewhere I wouldn't be able to return it to, and after reading heaps of reviews I was pretty comfortable taking the punt. Overall I'm glad I did.

    The Good: The band runs really small - I need a small 28 band, and this 30 fits snugly on the middle hooks. This is a plus for me! The wires are really narrow too, and there's good projection at the wire. I think the cups run a bit big, as it's a perfect fit for my larger side (more of a 28F) whereas the top of the cup wrinkles ... a bit on my small side (more of a 28DD/E.) I love the bright pink colour, weirdly enough. The quality is superb and the support is great.

    The Bad: The gore is pretty high, and a little too wide for me. I find it rides up onto my bigger boob and also digs into my sternum. I wouldn't want to be any fuller on top than I am (even fullness all over, trending towards FoT,) as the ribbon at the cup edge isn't elasticated and definitely digs in a little. The wires are a bit hard for me, but for a bigger cup size I'm sure they'd be a bonus.

    The Ugly: I don't wear this bra as often as I should because I'm not a super fan of unlined styles. I'm too lazy to bother with silicone nipple covers. This is just personal weirdness, and not a reflection on the bra.
