The wires on this bra are so wide/tight under my arms and the ends of the gore dig into my sternum. I bent both ends of both wires outward, but it's not enough. I wonder if it's intended for a taller woman.
The band itself is firm, but fine; I wouldn't want to size up to a 36. The cup is clearly too small even though the lace is so forgiving that it isn't obvious under clothes. It's so small that it pulls the band off my ribs under my boobs.
I have the same bra in 34GG in a pink/coral color that fits similarly (although the cup is larger, I would need an H/HH). The larger cup size doesn't fix the brutal digging of the wires.
It's a pretty bra if you like full coverage and sheer lace.
The support is good. Lift is meh; I'd like a lot more.
It's got 2 hooks; really needs 3-4 at this cup size.
This bra is not owned any more

Out of curiosity, which color did you try? I have one in the lemonade shade, new to SS15, in a size 32GG, and the band is tighter than I prefer, but nothing that likely won't be alleviated after some wash and wears. However, I just tried the powder colorway (an ashy light pink), and I couldn't even get the hooks and eyes to meet! It was tight -- like a 28 or 30 band size tight. I'm wondering if you have the same colorway, and there must just be something way off with that colorway in particular.
