I've been wanting to try this for a while because of the minimalist back, but I wasn't sure how it would work out as a 26FF. My sister size, UK 28F/US 28G, is a M/L according to the Uye Surana size chart. But I thought I might as well try XS/S too since 28 bands sometimes feel too stretchy.

XS/S is too small in the cups and feels tight even with the straps extended all the way, but the band is fine. It might work for a 28E though.

The M/L is more comfortable, but the cups are a little too tall and the band is too loose. I like the color and strappy back, plus the lace is almost smooth under clothes, so I'm going to see if I can get the band shortened somehow.

I contacted customer service about sizing (because a S/M would have been nice but that's not on the table) and they said they would let the designer know that there is interest in 26 bands.

Really love this bralette! I'm very glad to have a "underwear AND outerwear" option in the full bust category that isn't a total let down. I have been happily wearing this under sheer tops and with low back or backless casual dresses, and it looks totally intentional and cute.

It feels upscale, adult, slightly "alt," and well-made (it looks so much less juvenile than comparable Freya and Curvy Kate models, and the overall craftsmanship is nice), and is extremely comfortable, allowing your boobs to take their natural shape with a hint of support. This is not a bra that's gonna lock and load 'em, but if you're just looking ... for a hint of support, coverage, and lift, it does the trick.

However, the band is already a little loose for my taste when adjusted as short as possible. I typically wear a 30F and prefer a snug band, but occasionally will opt for a 32 in very tight-fitting bras. I'm right on the cusp between their XS/S and M/L sizing (30F is M/L, 30E is XS/S), so I may give the XS/S a shot, but I suspect the cups won't fit given that they're perfect in the M/L. Overall, I'd say the M/L band only adjusts down to a true 32, so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who is more of a 28/30 cusp.
