A very pretty and luxurious bra I have been sent to review. The overall feel is great and it has been made with great attention to details, but the cups run very large - I'd say a 1 1/2 size big.

Chartreuse colorway

This bra is not owned any more

• Curious, I had read that the other colourways ran small, but mine is red, and I too thought it was at least half a cup big. It is my only unpadded bra, so that could be the issue.

  /squints at measurements

  8.3 depth, 5.5 cup width...

  I usually take a UK 32FF, and I've found that between 5 and 5.5" cups, I need between 10" and 10.5"... :|a

  I guess I would expect a 32F to be ~9 inches, so to my expectations an 8" 30FF seems small?

  I don't in the least doubt your experiences (and one of the people who calls this bra small is comparing its cups to Empreinte, which is absurdly deep -- their 30F is 30:6 but fits my effectively-30:9 boobs almost perfectly), but I'm still trying to figure out how these numbers correspond to a bra fitting me or being too big/small. It SEEMS like such simple math, and yet........

• I agree, an 8.3" cup,depth is usually too small on me, I need 8.9 ish and I typically wear a 30E..

• I will re-measure this once I get home, but I am pretty sure I got it right.

• Yeah I was going to comment the same thing - 8.3" is pretty small for a 30FF depth.

  Like I'm sure the bra feels big anyway, but something doesn't add up :|a if it's not the measurement, maybe it's a shape problem.

  Apparently I was part of a minority in finding the cups on 32FF - Pour Moi » Amour Underwired Non Padded Bra (1502) to be small, and when I looked at the numbers there it's definitely a shape problem. My boobs not getting enough projection, hitting the "wall", and quadding out the top without getting to take advantage of the space at the bottom of the cup.

• rainbrasspetals this is a very helpful comment tbh, I never thought about it like that.

• It was too big on me too! I got a 30dd. I usually wear 30dd or e and this is enormous!
