This bra is looooovely, it feels really supportive, very much like sexy scaffolding. The wires don't feel too wide on me, I think because they don't get warped when the band stretches, so they're pretty mid-width. I'd prefer a touch narrower, but they don't dig or irritate due to the width. The band is a bit big on me (I think I'm about a 30K in most bras now) but it doesn't ride up much, I think due to how wonderfully wide the four-hook band is.

I have fairly even upper/lower fullness and it works well for me on that count, but from what I gather it isn't ... the best for very full-on-top, so I think it's more a bra for in between or full-on-bottom breasts. It isn't particularly deep or shallow, it feels more mid-depth all over, which means I have slight overspill towards the centre and some empty space at the straps (I'm more centre heavy). The gore is quite tall, so it lifts very slightly due to me being close-set, and I get a bit of empty space at the bottom. I don't think this is a depth thing, I think it's down to the main issue with this bra - the very tall sides. I don't think I've owned a bra so tall at the sides before, though it doesn't dig so much as slightly irritate and get pushed down.

I'm a UK 14-16 in clothes (medium in Freya briefs, 40 in Ewa Michalak, 16-18 in Curvy Kate.) and I found the XL high waist briefs to be a good fit, if anyone was considering getting the full set. It's a lovely set, I think I will keep it, though I might have to see if it's possible to lower the armhole.

I bought this bra some time back when I was closer to a 34JJ/32K UK to try an bra size it was the sizes A bra that fits suggested. My main issue with this bra is how shallow the cups are. The bottom of the cup doesn't have enough depth an is impossible to fill it since in doesn't ain't in my breast fold
The cup is a bit tall for me an there gapping close to the straps/armpit. I will try to alter to make it wearable a least

Pink and black colorway

Better for someone who needs only moderate projection

This is a beautiful padded plunge , but runs multiple cupsize smaller than it says on the label.

I ordered the high waist panties with it and the together they give a 70's pin up model look, except the cups are nice and round. The 4 closure hook and the construction is excellent, gives great support.

The cups are shallow and the wires are wide. Maybe not as wide as the CK daily boost, but wide nevertherless. I have projected narrow root breast and this bra doesn't suit that kind of breast for sure.
I wear 32J in Cleo and Panache bras and I ordered 32K in this and I am spilling out of it like crazy. I would need a 32KK, which doesn't exists. Plus probably even that size won't work because the shape mismatch.

This bra is not owned any more
