This bra model felt right, though not perfect, even in the incorrect sizes, so I knew I would eventually narrow it down to the right size. This just works for my small, shallow, widely spaced, wide roots shape. It is a good every day bra though the lace is not invisible under thin fabrics such as silk or fine gauge knits.
one of my favorite bras. Fits comfortably, and is perfect for plunge shirts/dresses. Only issue is that the lace easily shows through thin fabrics, and the lace on the straps goes up pretty high, so I can't wear this bra with tank-tops or wide cut shirts/dresses. Overall I would recommend!
I loved this bra so much. It doesn't show under anything no matter how low cut, and the black straps make it ok to show with thin tank top straps. Unfortunately I need the 30DDD in this model now, which has been discontinued. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I'm sorry I cannot provide measurements, as I have not figured out how to measure bras yet. Since they stopped making this bra, I'll keep wearing my 30DD in Gunmetal, but I look like the stock photo in it, which is obviously ridiculous.
I picked this bra up at nordstroms and it was, story of my bra life, the closest bra to fitting so I settled for it. Since then I have learned so much more about bras and fit. This bra doesn't allow for enough immediate projection near my underbust and as a result the bottom of the cup wrinkles and sticks to my ribs while causing quad boob at the top. I may try the 30 DDD if I can find one, but other wise this bra is too small in the cup and doesn't suite my particular vertically-shallow but still projected shape.
This bra is so flattering! It lies flat against my skin, and is the first bra I've had that won't show up under thin t-shirts. It does run tight, but the salesperson told me that it should stretch out a little bit after a few wears. Otherwise, the bra is perfect!
This seems like it would be a great bra is you don't have too much 'migrated breast' in your armpits. As it is, it squeezes the armpit/sides up and out of the band, so I look like I'm popping out of the sides.
Too shallow and wide. The 30DD fits better than the 30D as far as cup size goes, but it's still too shallow for my shape. The bottom of the cup wrinkles a lot and it just flattens me out overall. It gives a lot of cleavage. I'm not sure if it's supposed to give that much cleavage, maybe I should be wearing a 30E. Regardless, this bra is just incompatible with my narrow roots and projection. It's still pretty comfortable though, and it's smooth under clothing. The top edge of the cups where the straps meet always peek out of tank tops.. annoying. It was pretty itchy when I first bought it, but it's better now.
The 30DD - Natori » True Decadence Cut And Sew (734097) is not a flattering shape or style on soft, deflated breasts like mine. A smaller size may have reduced the excessive wrinkling, but would not change the inner sling that lines the bottom inch or so of each cup, which creates a very obvious crease. My estimated size here and on abrathatfits is 30DD/E.
The wide set of the straps means the part between the end of the underwire and the beginning of the strap digs into the skin under my arms and started to irritate my skin in the few minutes I wore this for the fitting.
It wasn't a problem for my full-on-bottom breasts, but the top edge of the cups would definitely dig into full-on-top breasts. The cups themselves do not have stretch, but the very edge does.
This is my second Natori Feathers, also bought on eBay like my first one, which was yellow. I don't buy them for colours, just for price, since I'm a student without the sort of money that I'd need to buy 68$ bras all over the place. As it is, I love this just as much as my older one. I'm also impressed, now that I have a new one and one I've been wearing almost daily for 4 months, that my older one has barely stretched - it was a fear of mine that the mesh band material wouldn't be strong enough to hold its elasticity. The rest ...of the review is the same as my other Natori Feathers as it's extremely consistent in sizing and comfort across colour ways.
This is extremely comfortable and lightweight. I also like that the band is mesh, because I get very sweaty around my torso and it breathes better than it would otherwise. As said by many reviewers, it runs a little small in the cups, and I had to get a 30DD (my regular size is 30D.)
Furthermore, I'm impressed by how well it sits considering I have a ~2 cup difference in the size of my breasts. It fits my larger side perfectly but doesn't gape bizarrely on the smaller size, since the lace on the top of the cups is elasticized. The lace sits flush against my skin on both sides, which is really quite impressive. Read more 136 more words
This is the first bra-that-fits of my life, and I'm in love. I tried on the same bra in a different colour way at Nordstrom but couldn't afford a 68$ price tag, so I waited until I could find this one on eBay for much less.

I don't actually own this bra, but I tried it on three years ago when my breasts were much smaller, and it didn't fit then so it definitely won't fit now! But you know that great feature called "Recommendations?" THIS KEEPS COMING UP. WHY?!?! No way would a large, stretchy 30 band fit me! No way would cups that small fit me now! Ugh. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Basically I added this so it will hopefully fix my recommendations. We'll see...
This is probably the only bra that I have that comes close to fitting (correctly). The only real issue I have is that there is slight room at the bottom of the cups, more so on my smaller side, but it's present on both. I may have an issue with the lace, because at the moment I'm not used to wearing bras with lace, but the bra itself seems very soft and comfortable. I absolutely live the color!
I love the mesh overlay but the way it carries up the straps limits the shirts I can wear this bra under. The fit is great except I probably need the DDD in this now. It's still comfortable and I have no real issues when I wear it.
This bra is pretty damn comfortable. Unfortunately I get a decent amount of quad boob even on my smaller side, so I will definitely see if I can get this in the next cup up. The lace on the cup is pretty dull, but I am okay with that.
Mostly the same fit as my deep sea blue Feathers. The band on this one was the stretchiest of the three Feathers, and I found myself using it on the middle hook straight off. Will definitely be taking a needle and thread to tighten the band a bit.
This fits a bit better on me than the 30D. The wires follow the bottom of my root perfectly, but end up a tad too wide on the side. It's not a bit deal; it's perfectly comfortable there. However, since it ends a bit too far back, I find that the front of the bra where the straps start dig into my armpit a bit. It's an easy fix by tugging the strap further up my shoulder, but a bit annoying otherwise.
I don't quite fill out the top of the cups super well, but the mesh does a pretty good job of hiding it. The 30DD is ...still a tiny bit too shallow at the bottom, but it's barely noticeable. The band felt tight at first (which was great, since my underbust is 27.5"), but at the end of the day, it had loosened enough that taking deep breathes wasn't a problem at all, and it was clear that the band had ridden up a little during the day. I may take a needle and thread to it at some point.
I found it interesting that all three of my Natori feathers (this, 30D, 30DD nude) had different lace patterns on the band. The 30D had the prettiest lace, but the deep sea blue color is gorgeous and really is my favorite. Read more 115 more words
In the eternal quest for a t-shirt bra that matches my skin tone, I tried this as a sister size to my usual 28E. Unfortunately, I found the band rode up even on the tightest hook. Because the band wasn't really tight enough, I felt unsupported and slightly splayed in this bra.
Size note: I have a tight underbust measurement of 27" and a snug measurement of 25". With those numbers, a 30 band is practically +4 sizing. If you have my measurements and like a snug band, you'll probably need a Rixie clip to make it work.
