I love the look of this bra! The teal blue color with black lace is very sexy.

Unfortunately, it is neither the correct size nor shape for me. Based on the measurements and an older Parfait By Affinitas Charlotte Padded Bra (6901) I have that fits about 2 cup size small, I thought the 30FF (one cup size up from my usual 30F), would be the correct size. However, the cups are definitely too big, and I can't fill them at the top. It appears that the shape of the bra is more suited for even or full-on-top and wider breasts, the opposite of mine, though because of the size I'm not 100% sure.

I have the champagne colored Fiona. I was surprised it fit me.
Unlike my Charlotte, it doesn't cut in on top of the cups, but there is some quad boob over the center gore. The cups and straps aren't as wide as my Charlotte. This bra is good for even, FOT, It feels like it runs big in the cups. If I stand/sit straight, then the cups and straps don't feel too wide. When I sit down, the cups and straps feel like they are going into my armpits.

I wish I had more (read: any) center projection. That is really the only problem with this bra, It's super soft and sexy and is very tight for a 30 band (Thank you Parfait!) but I just can't wear it because it's made for someone with even projection... That is sooo not me, unfortunately.
It's a great quality bra though, so I would recommend it to anyone... mostly for how soft it is. It's really freaking soft and silky!

I'm not usually a fan of purple, but this shade of purple is nice. The bra feels comfortable to wear, the 30 band fits great. Unfortunately, the cups are too small for me and the straps are only half adjustable so it just didn't work for me.

This bra has a fairly stretchy band, I used a bra extender at first because it was so tight but now after a few months of use I wear it without the extender. I think the cups run a size too big, if I could I would get a 34F since the cups gape at the center gore for me. This bra is pretty, good quality materials, however I have noticed after extended wear while working the band rubs under my arm, not the underwire, but the band material, as if its too high. So I wouldn't recommend for smaller statured woman. Overall, I still use this bra because it fits comfortably, i just can't wear it for an extended period of time.

I feel like Goldilocks. The first Fiona I got was too big, this is too small. It's a gorgeous bra. I like the details. I just wish it fit.

**EDIT** i know now this bra was both the wrong shape and the wrong size. updated fit into to show this.

Fiona *technically* fits, but it looks absolutely awful and i dont feel good in it at all. I get the strangest, square sort of shape with this bra, I had a hard time photographing it. It's more obvious to me when I'm looking down from the top, so I'm not sure if it is noticeable to others, but I dislike it all the same.

Aesthetically, i love the color and the lace overlay. The red satin is a little darker than my pictures, the sheen of it unfortunately ... made it seem brighter from the flash. The accordion straps are a little strange looking, but not a deal breaker. The lace shows under thin shirts, so it may be more of a "fun" bra or one to wear with layers.

The whole shape of the cups seems weird to me in general and im not sure how to actually describe it- i recommend trying this one on in person. It seems like the place where your nipple is meant to be in the cup is really far out to the sides, and then the inner edge of cup straightens out. its almost like the cup is meant for someone with a lot more tissue near the center and sternum side of their breasts, so it will push the cup into a rounder shape. The straps sit very far apart and if i dont pull them in a bit, threaten to slide completely off. Additionally, i feel like it pulls my breasts apart a fair amount.

Honestly, i am completely lost on this one, and i'm not sure who it would work for. I got a toned down version of the square shape in the Jeanie, so it might just be that i'm not compatible with Parfait cuts.

Feels great in the cup. Wires are slightly too wide for my chest, but not terribly so. I could barely fasten the bra, because the band was way too tight. I do tend to prefer Freya and Curvy Kate 30s, so this was... really tight in the band.

A nice bra, and fairly well made. The wings aren't as high as other bras in the Parfait line but still higher than usual. The straps aren't fully adjustable, and I almost couldn't make them short enough. The wires are much more flexible than the Charlotte balconet or plunge version. The band is a bit loose, but worn on the middle hook it works well on me. Definitely keeping it, it's incredibly comfortable.

I got this from another Bratabase user, brand new, still with the tags on it. I had just listed my own in the same size and color, so was hesitant to get another one. I haven't verified the measurements between the 2, but I think they are fairly similar. However, this one does seem just a tad larger in the cup than my previous one. I get only a tiny bit of spillage, but not enough to get worked up about at this point. It's beautiful. I've lost my absolute love of Parfait, as the fit seems to have changed somewhat from the first several that I tried, and the last several that I've gotten have not been a great fit at all. This one falls somewhere in between for me I think, not great, but not awful either. It's pretty but not one that I'll wear often.
