I tend to be right in between a 36 and 38 band size, so I went with a 38 for this bra because I heard the Pour Moi bands ran tight. I'll actually be exchanging it for a 36 as I can fasten the 38 on the tightest hook with no problem.
The cup shape and size is good, I think it would actually suit someone with more projection really well as I have a little bit of wrinkling at the top of the cup even after I scoop and swoop. My roots seem to be average to slightly wide and the wires on this fit really ...well, though they're slightly narrower than my Fauve and Freya bras. My favorite thing is the super thick elastic on the wing, it's not as stiff as wire or boning but does a great job at keeping my breast tissue in the cup and minimizing my east-west projection (of which I have a fair amount). Hopefully the 36F I'm exchanging for will be a better fit, band wise. Read more 74 more words
So, the 38F was the bra that fit my bust properly, and it popped a wire the first time I washed it. However, when I ordered the 38F, I also ordered a 38E to try, unsure of how it would fit me. The E cup was just slightly snug across the top of my breasts - not quite a quadboob, but close. Also, while I stand the gore sits against my sternum, but when I sit it pops out a little. It doesn't quite fit, but it's still one of my more comfortable bras. I know I said with the 38F that I wouldn't order this again, but I've washed the 38E a couple of times (in the machine, then hang to dry), and have had no problems with it. I love this bra. It's not sexy or terribly pretty even, but it's wonderfully comfortable, affordable, and a really good all-pourpose bra.
