I've lost a lot of weight and have been trying to find my new size. I thought I was a 30E when I ordered this, but I'm really more of a 28F. I wanted to exchange it to try for a better fit, but 28F wasn't available and customer service said they weren't restocking 28F anytime soon ☹️ I missed the return window because reasons (have to ship internationally in person during business hours and I work late).
Overall: Really pretty!! The heart strap sliders are so freaking adorable. I have been dying to try this brand and really wanted it to fit 😔 The band is a ...bit too big and stretchy. The noir/sugar color had the stretchiest band at 32 inches, while the nude/creme color had the tightest 30", and the nude color was in-between at 31". It digs into my breast in front of the armpit on my larger breast so much that it's too uncomfortable to wear. Otherwise it fit well and is beautiful. The Liliana's wings seem to be higher than the other bras I have from Tutti Rouge and the Freya Deco which I own several of. Maybe this is why I was having issues. I've heard that the cups on this style are shallow which could also be a factor. Hopefully someone will see my listing and buy this beautiful bra and love the way it fits them ❤️ Read more 129 more words

Okay, a wireless "bralette" that more or less fits. The band is a bit too loose (tightest hook is good), and cup could be a bit bigger, but definitely wearable.
So sad this bra didn’t fit. The band has been altered down to 29” which works great for me, but the cups are a bit deep and the gore too high. I almost decided to keep it though because it’s such a pretty mint color. Other than the bow it reminds me of a vintage bra. Now I want to keep it again
Definitely more of a 32 band, cup size is generous, and stretchy band. More 32FF/G. Very thin fabric on cups and without stretch. I still get multiple wrinkles on the bottom edge of the cups, definitely from it not having enough immediate projection.
The straps are not as good quality as Panache/Cleo. The gore is too wide for me and cup wires are too long (6.0' versus the 5.5' in Marcie). The shape it gives is more East/West then I would like since there's too much room in the cup. The gore tacks painfully even after 30min, with the bottom edge not ...tacking smoothly. I'd probably just wear this around the house.
Edit: Sewed dart in gore (wires over lapping), shortened the band (1.5-2in"), added darts to top middle/inner corner of cups to get rid of lack of inner cup fullness. Fits better now, though there is a pointy-ness due to the dart being at the apex of breast area. The too wide wires aren't a problem anymore. The wires still pokes a bit at the sternum, but the fit is much better. The band and cup quality isn't the best (no stretch, thin material) so I wouldn't recommend this for middle to big busts. But doing alterations definitely made the bra more supportive. Read more 111 more words
This is a really lovely bra! I absolutely adore all the details that Tutti Rouge put into their bras and so I had to try this one. Unfortunately, the gore on this bra is simply too tall for me. Even after altering the gore's height and width, it is uncomfortable for my touching roots. It would suit someone who has a little bit of space between their breasts better. Cups are fairly shallow, but not the most shallow ever. They are super silky and lovely.
Note: measuring bralettes is hard. Please keep in mind I did the best I could but it may not be completely accurate when it comes to cups.
Ashley is a weird, weird bralette.
I'll start with the good - the band's alright. It sits nice around my underbust, but after a while it starts riding up. The straps are adjustable all the way and don't pull much on my shoulders.
The cups are an odd shape. They're a crossover design which is not that big of an issue, and at the 'gore' the cups actually fit well, there's no cutting in or anything. However on the outside of the cups there's like..hanging fabric. ...I don't know how else to explain it. There's zero support on the side and boobs sort of just hang there unsupported. It's maybe a shape mismatch as I've seen this bralette look good on other people.
The bralette also came with a little rip in the side. I'm not sure when it happened or if quality control at Tutti Rouge is just not that good but it was definitely like that out of package as I noticed it before I even tried it on.
I love this bra! I had to buy the Scarlet/Nude version since it was a pretty good price and I totally love this bra in 28E. OK I am a bra hoarder. Whatever. Here is something interesting to note: there is no difference in cup scaling between the 28E and 32D. The minor measurement differences are probably just due to manufacturing. The 32D actually has a hair narrower wires and gore. This is excellent for me since I plan on altering this bra down to a 26 band. The cups are a little more wrinkly since the band is currently so large on me. There is also a slight shape mismatch since I am shallow and FOT. The cups are not as stretchy as ivory/nude. The only con is that the pads are a lot stiffer in the Scarlet/Nude colourway, so they are more visible. I'll probably just use the 28E pads. I will try to write a more complete review on the 28E bra since that is closer to my actual size.
Too big in the band, which rode up on my back. The wires were comfortable and accommodated my rather wide breasts well, however I’m less full (read deflated) on top and just couldn’t fill it. There was significant gaping which I can live with in a stretch lace, but the Betty just doesn’t work for me sadly.
The band isn't as tight as I'd like. Cups are a little too small. Otherwise an absolutely gorgeous bra! It's still wearable, but not as fitting as the Belen half cup bra from Comexim.
This review is for the red floral version.. this bra's measurements vary among the many different colourways.
Me: tall roots, very close-set (touching), average to narrow width, shallow, splayed east-west, even but functionally FOT, centre-full horizontally, size asymmetry.
Probably my best-fitting bra so far. The band runs short. (At least in this red colourway, because I have a cream-colourway 28E and the band is TTS.)
The wires are pretty wide, definitely too wide on my smaller breast, but shallow enough in the outer cup that it's not much of a problem. The cups are shallow, have two vertical seams, allow for moderate immediate projection, open on top, and softly moulded. Because ...they are so shallow I have to size up, I'm normally 28e. I could probably even size up again, but the wide cup width would probably start to become a problem at that point.The cups are a little short for preference and for my tall roots but i imagine they're fine for 'regular' height roots. The red silky fabric extends onto half of the straps and it is very pretty so I don't mind if the straps show next to a black or red tank top. Overall I would definitely recommend this bra for those with wide shallow breasts who need a tighter band. If you're a true 28 snug or greater, maybe size up to the 30!
My one complaint is the top edge/seam of the cup bends upwards slightly, enough to show under shirts. I also wish the cups were taller, but I wish that about every bra. Read more 151 more words
Such a cute bra! I love all the little details that go into it, such as the "Tutti Rouge" etching on the clasp of the bra, and the heart shaped adjusters for the straps. Unfortunately the gore is just too wide and tall for me, it sits on my breast tissue and is slightly painful unless I push the wires all the way towards the other side of the channel. The gore needs to be narrowed, and while this is a simple enough alteration for me, I have a too many bras already. I get a natural lift in this bra, and it fits pretty well for my shallow boobs. The upper mesh actually sits pretty flat on me, instead of wrinkling because my roots are too tall, or wrinkling because they are too empty. I would recommend this bra if you can find it cheaply to someone with a shallow shape, and has a decent amount of space between the breasts.
*Sigh,* I'm sad about this one. I'm very new to the world of proper bra fitting, so I have recently bought a bunch of different styles, sizes, and brands. Of course I was drawn to Tutti Rouge because their designs and patterns are so cute, and I couldn't resist this one! But sadly, the fit just isn't for me.
The wires are very wide and the cups very shallow, covering too much space by my armpits and leaving the bottom of the cups to scrunch up like crazy. The shape of the cups also makes my boobs look extremely pointy, although it's not as noticeable under shirts. The band ...stretches quite a bit as well, meaning that I can comfortably wear it on the middle to tightest hooks. The straps are too long and unfortunately, my assemytry is very pronounced in this particular bra. I have (at least) a cup size difference between my boobs, and while it semi-fits my bigger left breast, it gaps insanely on my right. A cookie helps, but the difference is noticeable even then.
Bottom line: this bra runs bigger in the band and really shallow & wide in the cups. Undoubtedly, though, the polkadots & colors are adorable, the fabric is soft and satiny, and the quality seems sturdy. Regardless of the fit issues, I'm determind to find a way to make this work! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Read more 127 more words
Me: tall roots reaching collarbone, very close-set (touching), average to narrow width, shallow, splayed east-west, FOT or even (unsure), centre-full horizontally (for this reason I don't usually wear plunges), high set, short torso, broad shoulders, 26" snug UB and 34" leaning bust.
Another wide, shallow, and open on top Tutti Rouge moulded bra. Wires too wide on my smaller breast. band is TTS, cups have one vertical seam. They are that soft and flexible kind of moulding/lining/padded, gore is lowish and narrowish (no space between wire channels, yay).
The top bit of fabric is actually floating mesh, it tacks but it doesn't really add to the bra's support structure. ...When I ordered this I didn't look closely and didn't realize this. The bra are still supportive even though the cups are not as tall as I thought/wish, it's just more like a plunge than the balconette I expected.
The straps are pretty and embellished and the cups' satin overlay fabric is so silky. Overall the bra has a nice dark and sexy romantic appeal.
Overall this fits well except for being a tad wide on my small side. The only objective thing I don't like is how the very top edge of the cups' moulding is lifted/bends upwards and this is visible under tops. It's not a huge deal and I'll continue to wear this, just not under certain tight tops. You can see what I mean in my angle shot photo. Read more 131 more words
