The band:
Tight and firm.
I wear it with an extender (Underbust measurement very tight 68cm), you can purchase the matching extender in the SugarShape shop. It's very comfortable with the extender. I had to choose the 65 band because 70/82,5 isn't available. But I don't care, the extender doesn't bother me https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
Some pictures show that the band on the black Dolce Vita produces some weird drapes, but it doesn't do so on me. I don't know whether it's the style (laceprint) or whether it's me though https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
The band is in the small sizes too very broad and ... reaches up very high under your arms. It's not uncomfortable but I wanted to note it. But it's perfect to not cut in your back! So great!
Fabric: Dream come true!
The cups are cotton lined, so they are really comfortable on your skin. The outer fabric is soft and smooth, the lace is a really great print. It does look even nicer in real life. You can't see the lace through a shirt.
Straps:
Are rather wide, 20mm, even in the smaller sizes. It looked very strange to me at first, but they are really comfortable, I was very surprised!
And once worn they don't look enormous anymore, even on a small bra.
I hope there will be smaller straps on future styles (and the SugarShape Sisters normally listen to their customers https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> ) though, so you can wear the bra with a top with thin straps. This is definitely not a summer bra for me, because I always wear tops with thinner straps https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
Shape:
Somehow different than most british bras I tried. If it's slightly too big the shape is a tiny bit pointy. You could compare it to the shape in Konrdas bras, but with a much better support and moooore push up. But really nice I think. wa-wa-woom!
If you insert the pads than it's really wa-wa-woom deluxe - it would be too much for me for a daily wear bra. Maybe for special occasions.
Support:
Very nice support due to the broad band. The cups are perfect for me and I could even wear it without straps (no, they are not removable)
Bra Charm:
I chose the cute key and I like it! It's not very prominent on the laceprint, but looks great on the black bra. Since I need a very small bra size the size of the charm is really sufficient, I guess it could look a bit tiny in bigger sizes.
Conclusion:
The surprise of this year so far in my sizing range! Honestly I didn't think this bra would look this great on smaller breasts!
