I have several Thirdlove 24/7 classic T-shirt Bras in my ordinary size 30DD (that's 30E in Thirdlove's sizing cuz they use Euro sizing). I love their Naked 1 shade because it's a nude that actually matches my ghost pale vampire skin (I'm crazy pale) and when I saw a NWT 34C, which should be my sister size in a 34 band, pop up on postmark for a bargain price, I thought it would be a perfect a candidate for a band alteration.
I was very (unpleasantly) surprised to find that while the underwires were the same size as my 30Es from thirdlove, my new bra's cups were smaller with a lot less coverage.
Thirdlove apparently uses slightly more fabric and slightly shorter straps on their size D and aboves, but I wish I'd know this before ordering a sister size for my adventures in bra altering.
