Band stretches out on this bra really quickly. It fit for a short period of time and now the band is way too big even on the tightest hook.

For the sake of comparisons, I am 5'1" with east-west, tuberous, and shallow breast tissue. My most common issues with bras tend to be the length and width of wires (since most of my tissue is in my armpits) and having gaps at the apex or tops of the cups, especially on my smaller and higher-set side.

After I was fitted in a 32C at the boutique where I had my first post-Covid fitting, I eventually went back to ... get my accurate size. The 30DD fits so much better, thank goodness. As far as 30 bands go, this one feels more stretchy and roomy. The wires are the proper proportions for me and the straps are close together enough for someone my height. I really like the shape this bra gives me and it's comfortable enough to wear all day. The lace makes it look so pretty - I am fine with wearing a bra that fits and having it designed for utility, but it is always a plus when it is beautiful too!

Very beautiful, with lace that looks thoughtfully designed and classy. The lace is not stretchy, but it mostly lies flat for me (I have taller roots). Straps are close enough together not to fall down regularly on narrower shoulders and have ample room for adjustments. Like most Simone Perele bras I've had, the band is on the stretchy side but reasonably tight on the loosest hook when new. This bra isn't quite firm or structured enough to get much push-up leverage, so if a noticeable bump in cleavage is the main goal, this isn't the best solution. It looks great without the cookies, though, and with them in the boost is subtle. The lace, especially where it's sewn to the straps, can sometimes be felt on my skin, but I've had no problem wearing this all day. Lace can be slightly lumpy under tight, thin tops.

This is another one of the non-refundable purchases from an upscale bra shop that fitted me as a 32C. I don't know if it was an honest mistake on the part of the fitter or if she was trying to get me purchase more bras since 32C is a conventional size. 32C = 32+3 and my actual size, 30DD = 30+5, which both equal 35. Who knows. In good faith, I believed that I was a 32C.

This bra is so pretty and it's a shame that it's not the correct size for me. The band is way too big and my breast tissue is trying to make an escape via the outer cups and my armpits.

The fitter insisted I put this on, so I reluctantly did. By the end of the visit, this was the only bra I purchased. It's gorgeous! Beautiful color, very comfortable, really nice uplifted, round but not exaggerated shape. The lace is very sexy, might peek out of certain tops, but if the plunge is narrow this bra is great because there's almost no gore (and I don't spill out in the middle, yay!) the lace wasn't really visible through the t-shirt I was wearing, though that was kind of loose-fitting. The lace does lie flat against the skin.
I was sad though, because when I got home it ... looked like mine have some quality issue wrt the stitching on the band, but we'll see. This was an EXPENSIVE bra, so hopefully it isn't an issue.

Update. After wearing this for a while, I am changing my opinion about the fit. It's still a gorgeous bra that I don't actually feel while wearing, but I don't think it's projected enough for me. I definitely cannot wear this with the cookies in, but even without I think the cups slide down a little (and the band slides up). When I take it off, there's marks in different places; in part it's from the fabric on the inside, but I also think it's the wires sliding out of my IMF and onto my tissue. I might try scooping and swooping more diligently and tightening the band, but because the fitter urged me not to I am hesitant to do that, haha.

Still not entirely sure on the breast shape. Fairly projected, and at least functionally FOB (current guess: short roots, fairly even). Root width: who knows.
