So basically I suck at buying bras as well as saying no to salespeople. I went to this small, local bra boutique and was the only customer in a very small space. The salesperson was so excited to have a captive customer! Cute store but nothing amazing. I tried on Elomi Matilda and Bijou. They were both too wide and gaping at the top, even in the 34FF. I also tried on the Fantasie 4520 with similar results and some Parfaits that were not good. So that left Fit Fully Yours as the only choice.
Serena is an unlined multi-part bra with woven sheer upper lace ... panels that have sewn on elastic. The sides and back are sheer lace with multi-directional stretch and mesh lining. There is also padded side support slings and a J hook. The pics look like it is riding up a bit in the back but I just needed to adjust it. It's very supportive and firm. I'm still not a fan of full cup bras and don't care for the firmness but I think this one is a good fit. I couldn't say no to the nice woman and home it went with me. Idk what the chances are of me actually wearing it.

Serena is a very beautiful bra. I found it to be surprisingly narrow and deep for a North American brand. I find it interesting that the side slings show much more visibly in the nude than the black. It was ultimately a fail on me because of the elasticated cup edge. It dug into my tissue even in the correct size.
