I've been needing a strapless bra and wanting a long line bra, so when Brastop dropped the price on this to $33, I jumped on it. I ordered it in a 32J UK, as the other Curvy Kate bras I own ( 32J - Curvy Kate » Kiss Cross Plunge Bra (CK006101) and 32J - Curvy Kate » Lifestyle Plunge Bra (CK5711) ) are that size. Getting this bra on was an adventure in and of itself. I had to hook turn the bra backwards and hook the first 5 hooks, then flip the bottom of the band ... up and hook the rest of them. Then I had to slowly spin it around to the back. My ribs got stuck in the cups twice during that process. Then I went through several go-rounds of swooping, scooping, and tugging the bra higher in the back. Initially, I was spilling out of the top, but the bottoms of the cups were empty. After a lot of adjustment, I managed to mostly fill out the bottoms of the cups and get rid of all the overflow. The gore still wouldn't tack, and the bra keeps shifting down some. The cups gape some when I reach forward, and the bottom of the back keeps riding way up as well. Even with all these issues, this bra is surprisingly comfortable. The boning is soft and completely flexible. I would probably return this if I had paid full price for it, but for $33, it's not worth the hassle of an international return.
