    Didn't fit

    It's a shame that Olga doesn't make this bra style in a few more larger sizes. I wish I could have gotten it in a 40DDDD (40G?). The cups are almost perfect. I wish the fabric of the cup didn't ride up so high under my arm into my armpit, but that's my only complaint about the cups. I have a hard time getting all of my breast tissue into cups and this bra manages it. But I had to go up a band size to get the right cup fit. I think I would have gotten more out of a smaller band, but I'd rather feel comfortable ... that my breasts aren't spilling out over the tops or under the sides of the underwire.

    I tend to wear more of a demi-cup, but this bra isn't as "full-coverage" as most, either. It's a nice medium. The extra support along the outer edges of the cup is great. There is the slightest of foam padding the lines the edge of the underwire out the outer edge (under the arm). It both pads the wire so that I barely feel it, plus it pushes the breast tissue more firmly forward. I've always hated how much my breasts "leak" around my sides under my arms. This bra really feels like it's pulling that tissue forward into the rest of the breasts.

    I really like the band around the back. It doesn't have a think seam along the bottom edge so it really minimizes the 'roll' so many bras create. It fits flat against my sternum, and I've had problems with many bras that pull away and gap there.

    It's a soft cup, not a molded, pre-shaped one. The fabric seems to be micro-fiber or an imitation of it. Not satin though. It allows tops to drape nicely. The straps are slightly wider than I normally like. I tend to wear tank tops with narrow straps over the shoulders and I don't like my bra straps to hang out. So I wear this with cotton shirts and tanks with wide straps. But the straps are comfy with very thin padding rather than just elastic.

    This particular color, "Butterscotch," happens to be close to my skin color. I'm pretty pale. Their "Toasted Almond" shade for their other bras is much darker than my skin. But it almost seems to show up under some shirts more readily than the "Toasted Almond color. It's better than white. though.

    I hope Olga makes more of this bra but with different prints and/or lace options. The detail on the gore is pretty, but very simple. One of my greatest frustrations about bra shopping is that it feels like companies make pretty things only for women of socially acceptable sizes. The rest of us are in boring, large swaths of fabric we're meant to hide ourselves behind. This bra takes steps in the right direction in that it's "full-coverage" like without feeling like the cups cover my decolletage entirely. I'd just like to see flirtier versions, I guess. Something with a lace detailing or sheer overlays. Or fun bright colors. The black/white/nude trio is sort of a hallmark of the "no one wants to see you in this" bra. I think this bra could be both really supportive, comfortable to wear, plus fun if they expanded their color and fabric options.
