Continuing my journey of trying to find ABTF in my new size after losing 40+ pounds and having a baby.
This bra is probably the closest I’ve found to a proper fit, but it’s still not quite there. I’ve marked it as fitting, even though it’s slightly too big and the band is also too big. I got this one on Brastop, and returns are a PITA, so I’m going to wear it as long as I can until I get another bra that fits or buy another Nessa in a different size (I’m thinking 70J might be the right fit for me, maybe? If not, I know ... 70K will fit for sure.
I’m not new to Nessa bras - I used to have an Angela, Coral, and Simone in my other size. The Juliette is exactly the same as the other Nessa bras I’ve owned - material is very pretty, but not super soft (it’s actually somewhat scratchy.) I’m not a huge fan of the color, but that’s a minute detail. It has side boning, which typically bothers me and is uncomfortable but because I sized up in the band, the boning actually isn’t noticeable. The top of the cups are quite open and are lined with elastic. The wires are fairly narrow. There’s more space at the apex than the bottom, so I would say the projection is not immediate (I find Kris Line bras to have more immediate projection). Straps and band are super stretchy and comfortable.
Like I mentioned earlier, the band is too big for me. I measure a 32 band (snug measurement is like 30-31”, so even the 32” band is not tight-tight). This band stretches to 35”. The cups have space at the top by the straps, and depending on how my boobs decide to place themselves each day, this bra can actually fit quite well or quad.
My boobs are projected, pendulous, soft, and if I were to guess they’re even vertical fullness, center horizontal fullness, low-set, and short root height.

I wish I could have found that bra in that size! I ended up sister sizing to a 34G (75I I guess would be the EU size?) and the band is way too big but the cups are almost perfect, maybe just slightly too big.
