likesThe bands of these two feel about the same new, with the 65 noticeably still stretchier, especially in the straps. I was advised that this might be specific to the Chalet and its fabric, rather than specific to the Pl cut.
I suspect the PL is still too big in the cups, having already gone down one cup size from the initial 70GG I was recommended by Jaimie @ Bra Obsessed. Meanwhile the 70G of the Summer Time S is perfect. (A friend has pointed out that there's a tiny bit of wrinkle in the bottom of the Summer Time cup, though.)
I think this is going to turn out to be a shape difference as much as a size difference once I've measured the two, but it's also worth remembering that depending on how close or wide set you are a plunge style can be functionally deeper in the cups than it measures, since it's not covering your entire breast.
