Official websiteOmg I love his bra so much! I probably should have ordered a cup size bigger and maybe a band size bigger too. It runs small. I ordered this one in a 32h and it doesn't quite sit flat on the sternum and I quad out of it a bit. However it gives my boobs the nicest shape ever! And I love it so much! But seriously though, order it a size bigger. Next time I will get 34h

One of the most visually stunning bras I've ever owned. Unfortunately it has some issues.
The bra runs small - very small. Definitely go up a cup size or two. It's also too wide, too tall and too shallow, especially at the bottom and center of the cups. This bra is great for impressing a partner but not really good for daily wear as it shows under everything.

I wasn't sure about ordering this bra, because I didn't like the vertical stripes, but it's much more beautiful than I thought. Weirdly enough the 30E cup works for me, although it's slightly on the larger side. In Parfait plunge bras, 30DD is way too big for me.
The shape of this bra is great for me: on the wider side (although they're probably still sitting on breast tissue), but shallow (I have very wide, very shallow tissue, but a lot of center fullness). I have tall roots and these cups are tall, which is great for support, but I do feel them in my armpits so I'd ... have preferred narrower straps. The band is rather tight, although the measurements don't show it, it feels much tighter than the band of my Casey, which is about the same length, but more comfortable. The problem I have with this bra is that the wires are very hard and poke in my sternum. Compared to the Parfait Casey plunge, of which the wires don't bother me at all, the wires are much less flexible. I've tried to bend them and it's a little better now, but it's doesn't feel great. The gore is also way too wide for me. I'm getting tired of altering bras, so I'm returning this. Such a pity, because this truly is a beauty.

I love this bra. I originally ordered this when I was on my journey to finding a properly fitting size. It was a total guess. I know the 30f bras I was wearing were way too small so I ordered two cup sizes bigger (found out later that his bras runs about a cup size larger). When I first tried it on I was disappointed and thought it didn't fit because I had gapping at the top. I put it aside to get rid of. Then one day, I being really sad it didn't fit and hoping it would I tried it on again. I put it on. ... I still had gapping. Then I stood up straight with proper posture. It was a miracle! It fit almost perfectly. No more gapping. I had just been standing with bad posture before causing the gapping. The way I saw it was I need to stand with better posture as it is so it was worth keeping. The band is comfortable. The cups are just barely big enough. The gore is pretty flat to my sternum. When I push it flat however I get quadboob on my bigger side. I haven't decided if it would be worth going up a cup size or not. My only complaint is that one of the three hooks on the band is broken and it is a struggle to get it hooked. The other two hooks are fine. I dread the day a second hook breaks. I only hope I will be able to get it repaired. All in all this is one of my favorites and is a solid go to.

This is a great bra. The straps are thicker than any other bra I've had, and they're super comfortable, and combines with 4 hooks in the back it's a very supportive bra. The color is beautiful. It is a lot of bra, which is great on a cold day, but not one I find myself reaching for day to day because of that. It has a great rounded shape, looks great under clothes.

Not well suited for narrow breasts with immediate projection. Plus, it's too small.

i had previously tried this exact size in the Peach model, but found it didnt fit well enough to want to keep for the price i paid. i found it later for much cheaper, so i re bought it in this dusty rose color. i dont have the peach anymore so i cant compare the two side by side, but per my past review this seems to fit similarly.
the band feels firm but not painful- im wearing it on the first set of hooks, but could probably move to the second for a firmer fit. because of the 3 hook band though, it feels sturdy as is. ... im still getting what appears to be quadboob near the very center, and the gore doesnt tack, but im not sure thats an issue of cup size. i think im just more center full, and the gore is too wide. i have a bit of empty space near the outermost edge of the cups, near the straps, but i get that pretty much always so im going to say 'meh' and leave it be. its a molded cup too, so some of it might be a consequence of the stiffness of it. i hope as it softens with wear and washing, it'll conform more to my shape.
the straps are too wide set, which is annoying but again, happens constantly. i think they contributed to the gaping i get, because it becomes worse as i move around and the cups get shoved by the straps catching in my armpits. the material of the straps is nice though, thick and stretchy and pretty comfortable.
one thing ive noticed with wearing this is that i get some irritation from the band, right below the cups. it wants to curl under, and it pinches and chafes a bit and leaves a really severe red mark that hurts. its noticeable after abut 10 minutes of wear, but really bad if i wear it for longer. im not sure the cause- the band definitely doesnt feel too tight, if anything its a bit loose! im not sure if its a projection issue? i dont have heavy breasts, but i do have stomach fat higher up, so maybe its just that getting squished.
*UPDATE: 4/18/17* after the inital try on and wearing it in the house for an hour or so, i havent worn this since. its just too pinchy in the band, and i think its because ive got too much upper stomach fat for it. im also driven nuts by the straps. selling this one and moving on!

I am normally a 28f, but read that this bra runs large in the cup, so I cupped down twice and bought a 28dd according to Petite Collegeite. I had quad boob on my larger side. I reorder it in size 28E and it fits great. The band is tight enough on my 26 in underbust. The gore kinda sits on my breast tissue because it is so close set, but I like the bra so I'll keep it.

This sure is a super sexy bra!
The band is tight and the cups are a tiny bit too small for me...but it's a true beauty!

Hey I got the Parfait Charlotte Balconet Brain 30F and it fits great. I think we're close in size so maybe you should give that a try
