Look inside for photos of this great bra.

You had better think again if you think you won't garner some attention whilst wearing ths bra. It doesn't give me an enormous amount of lift but does create a very attractive profile.

There's nothing I can really say to add to the other reviews of this terrific bra. The construction is stellar and the fit is quite firm. I am very glad I sized up in the cup. A wide, tight band to capture all that wandering tissue and with the wide-set, wide straps it gives me a great feeling of support and containment without completely covering up all that lovely upper boobage.

I rate this bra a definite buy.

Well, it's obviously much too small, both band and cup, but I *love* the incredibly dramatic, bounteous boobs effect! I have a couple of tops that actually work great with this bra, but I'd really like to find one that actually fits that gives me a similar look. I also like that the straps are way far apart (good for the wide neckline) and that the cups are cut low and almost horizontal (good for the low-cut square neckline).

Anyway, 'tis not a bra that I normally wear. It's only for those occasions that are ridiculously silly and oh-so-much fun. *laughing* And I wouldn't be caught dead wearing this without clothes. Not a pretty sight.

I own three of these, in hot pink, aqua and black. I should really just give them away to a good home.

Hot Pink - V14 colorway

Now with stunning colour photos!

This is absolutely a gorgeous bra. The colourway of deep red with pink trim is scrumptious. I love it. Construction is first-rate. The band is generously wide, which I like, and the straps are sturdy with cute little pink bows at the attachments points, along with a bow at the top of the gore.

The gore *just* lifts off my sternum (~1.0cm) and the neckline of the cup (on my larger breast) has just maybe a 0.2cm gap right down by the gore. It's difficult to tell, really, since it's very lightly padded and the lace overlay doesn't lie right ... on the breast. It might be that the cup is a shade shallow, or I just need a little more inner fullness. It may be that all I need to do is do a little reshaping of the wires and it will fit perfectly. And maybe after I've worn it for a few weeks, it will better conform to my shape.

I would hesitate to go a cup smaller, because if I press the gore up against my sternum then the cup fits perfectly.

I would not hesitate to recommend this model to anyone with similar boobs. Besides, did I already say it's beautiful? *grin*

What would I tell a friend with similar boobs? If you don't buy this bra, we can no longer be friends because I will have lost *all* respect for you. *giggle*

Seriously, BUY THIS BRA. It is extremely comfortable and fits like a glove. The cups, though lightly padded, are elastic enough to fit both my unequally-sized boobs.

A generously wide band and sturdy straps work extremely well for me to make me feel firmly supported, with all that underarm fat nicely dealt with. This bra will definitely help with tissue migration. Great fit and a lovely shape. This bra will work brilliantly under a t-shirt or sweater.

Oh, and the purple with small, white polka dots just trips every one of my switches!

Now with photos!!!

My first foray into the world of Curvy Kate is the 38G - Curvy Kate » Princess Balcony Bra (CK6001), which was recently on sale everywhere, at least in the teal colourway, so I thought I would give it a try. I researched the measurements for it and it looked like a 38G would actually work for me.

It's a beautiful bra, a gorgeous colour, and very feminine detailing, especially the pink ribbon that runs across the neckline and through the straps. And I am a complete sucker for polka dots. *grin*

So, my response to this bra? Just one word: ... OMG! I am *totally* in love with this bra. It fits so well, the depth and width of the cups, the length of the wires, the separation of the cups, the width of the straps, and the height of the gore. I feel completely supported, like my boobs are being cradled by firm, gentle hands. It's snug and I like that. It makes me feel very secure, like I won't have to even spare a single thought during the day, worrying about how I look, because this bra makes me feel like I look great. What more can a woman possibly ask of a bra?

I would buy this bra again in a New York minute. If I had the money, I'd buy one in every colour. It also makes me very curious about other CK models.

I am now one very happy woman. *giggle*

This is a very pretty bra. I love the lace of the upper cups and along the neckline. It seems to be very well constructed. With an extender at my current weight, it seems to fit very well. There are a few stray wrinkles but I'm putting that down to the tight band. I will most likely keep this bra. Any slight flaws in fit can't be seen when I have a top on. Which is pretty much the plan. (grin)

I love this bra. It's so pretty, with the pink and black colourway, with the lace on the unlined upper cup. I feel very well supported and very sexy at the same time. I still get the jiggle I love with the support from the padding in the bottom of the cup.

The band is quite tight but liveable. I can always use an extender if needed.

This bra seems to work very well with my shape, and gives me a terrific profile.

I like the shape it gives me, lifted and less rounded, a little more projection. It's a pretty bra and looks good on me. I feel well-supported. I like the lace-covered fine-mesh fabric of the cups, allowing some movement for my boobs. The only real criticism I have of this bra is the use of wires that are too flexible. I can't be certain, but I don't think they're steel. I don't have a strong enough magnet to tell, but two needles and my trusty multimeter indicate there is no conduction (which DID work with my 40F - Panache » Andorra Full Cup (5675)).

Fortunately, I bought this bra at Goodwill for $4, so I'm not going to complain.

Friend with similar boobs? Get a smaller cup.

I absolutely fell in love with this bikini when I first saw it. I love the pink with white polka dots, and the ruffle across the top of the cups and up to the strap. I love that it's a halter top. It is just *so* feminine! I'm ecstatic. Yes, my boobs don't quite fill the cups, and if I were to buy it again (and I'm definitely lusting after it in the black with white polka dots) I would size down in the cups.

The fabric is terrific, with enough elasticity to fit the shape of my boobs, and to give ... some jiggle and bounce. The underwires are stiff enough to make this bra feel very supportive.

As it is, though, this is my very first bikini and I'm loving it. I am definitely keeping this one. The briefs fit great, too, but I'm not quite ready for putting up photos of my butt.

I took the photos just for you because you asked me if I was going to.

This is a terrific bra. The band is tight, but I can wear an extender whilst losing weight. Otherwise the fit is good. It might be my best fitting bra, now. Construction is awesome. There is no comparison between this bra and any bra from any other manufacturer I've ever bought.

It's a pretty bra and I like how it shapes my breasts. I'm getting good projection without any padding. I also like the more parabolic profile it gives my breasts. I love the widely set straps and the completely unapologetic way my breasts are presented, neither too widely nor squished together.

I highly recommend this bra for someone with a shape similar to mine.
