The promise of a petite bra sounded so good! I would never normally try a 34C but they said their fits were "different" so I took their site calculator and they said to try this. It feels sadly no different than a regular 34C. I couldn't tell any difference at all.
really? I felt like the little bra companies bras overall were much more *petite* that typical bras in that the cups were much more narrow and shorter than a typical bra. But they also warn on the website that the Yvonne is sized very similarly to normal non-petite bras. So, per all the comments on the site this is very normal for this bra from TLBC.
Ah, well I guess my issue with regular bras is not so much the cup side but things like strap width apart (I'm 5'1" with VERY narrow shoulders) so maybe this isn't the right model for me. I'll contact them and ask them what they think.
It's a beautiful bra. I love the high wings. It fits my frame well: the straps are closer than in standard bras and the cups are close to each other, but still wide enough for the sides of my breasts. There is some cushioning in the bottom of the bra, which I wasn't what I was looking for. It also came with extra padding. It fitted nicely without the extra padding, but with it I got a quad boob effect. The band was way too large. These are non-standard sizes and I though I had get a 4+, but the 32 band fit better (I also ordered it in 32C). Unfortunately the 32C cups are too small. It's a pity, it's a very pretty bra, great quality. I would have bought a 32D if it existed.
