I got this bra because I wanted to try other Lepel plunge bras based on how the Fiore fits me incredibly well! I found this gorgeous red Iris bra on the ASOS website and had to try it.

First impression: POINTY! this is probably due to the one diagonal seam across the front. At first I thought the pointiness would drive me crazy but after awhile my breasts settled well and the bra got it's form back after being smooshed in packaging for a bit. It DOES have a very vintage-y madonna feel to it but the shape grew on me and I really like how perky it makes ... my little shallow even breasts look!

The pads that it comes with are GIGANTIC...they are almost like mini balloons filled with air and were almost too much (gave the bra an awkward squarish shape) so I subbed out some thinner softer pads which worked much better. Without the padding the pointiness is a little much but the pads round out the cups well and still fit my breasts in. I think the cups are the perfect size, no quadboobing also because the top edge lace of the cup is very soft and forgiving as well.

The band is actually VERY SNUG for being a 30...I almost mistook it for a 28 at one point. I'm wearing it on middle and sometimes last hook because it's not that stretchy of a band.

Definitely not as rounded of a feel as the Lepel Fiore and might take someone with more even/full on bottom breasts that are moderately shallow...size 30B ran true to size with me, similar to 30B in the Fiore.

Very sexy bra indeed and easy to match with lipstick red lacy underwear.

The bra is high quality and very pretty. There is also removable air padding cookies in the lower part of the bra which makes the padding feel squishy and natural. Unfortunately, the bra fits on the small side and is too pointy for my taste, but it does make you project outward if you like that look. The band is really tight so it is best to size up in the band by one size. The cups are quite small too, so are suitable for small busts if you wear this size (the cups are deeper, rather than wider/rounder/taller). The cups are like a demi bra. I notice this bra looks more flattering on bigger busts though, judging from photos (less squat and pointy if you are bigger busted). I rated comfort level as good because if it fit me properly, it would be fine.. but the band makes it personally uncomfortable since it is too tight for me, and the cup might be a tad too small.
