I got this bra in exchange for my 65J which was always a bit big but didn’t quite look like it was, perhaps because it is a little bit closed on top. Having lost weight last year, it no longer fit and I was ecstatic to be able to do a swap for a smaller one.
I have actually been gaining a little bit of weight back, and this one is a titch too small in the cups, or perhaps it’s just too short. That said, the quadding is more like bubbling, and it’s actually giving me a really uplifted and rounded shape, perhaps because this style tends ... to run a bit shallow compared with other plunges. If I add an extender, I settle in a bit more, and it does feel a bit more comfortable around my ribcage. It’s fine as is, but borderline too tight. I have to measure it still, but I am guessing that it’s probably pretty close to the listed measurements, and probably about 28.5” stretched. I can do it but prefer 29” as I can have a sensitive ribcage.
Overall, it’s a fairly good fit, and I think it’s going to relax a bit more with wear. I’m not sure if I will wear it with the extender because the hook spacing is a little bit different, and I don’t want to damage the bra with a slight change in tension on the hooks.
I think a 65H or 70G would have been perfect in this one.
Side note: the tattoo is temporary from inkbox. It’s also a bit messed up as it was the first one I did and questioned if I had it lined up straight…but between my eye problem and slight perfectionism, I adjusted it a few times but the ink was already transferring which created a bit of a blurry look.

Your analysis of the fit is in line with the pictures. It's such a beautiful bra. I hope it does relax a bit for you!
Is it just me, or does this not look very plunge-y for a plunge bra?
