B5 stars but the center is too tall for me I have to fold down and sew down about an inch so that it doesn't poke up between my boobs when I wear a t-shirt Even when I'm standing.

HerRoom Response: We appreciate your feedback. And, it's surprising given that you are tall. A taller center panel is usually preferrable on taller women. Desirée from Wailuku hi USA

Great bra, with supportive lift. Comfortable. Holds "the girls" in place well, centered (not spread out), with a nice, youthful rounded shape. Light-weight, not bulky. Easy to pack in suitcase. For me, it wears well under any type of clothing. BethG from WV

I followed the fitter’s suggestion when ordering and had to exchange the bra for my regular size of 40D. Lovely bra and fits very nicely in the correct size. Would have given it 5 stars if I didn’t have to return it Kathryn from Illinois

This is the longest-lasting bra I've ever worn since I was properly fitted 10 years ago. No wire breakthrough at all. The center is too tall and the top of the cups gapped a lil so I've fixed it by folding inwards and sewing down 1 inch.

HerRoom Response: We are glad you found a way for this bra to fit. We do not suggest your modification. Desiree from Wailuku, Hawaii, USA

I was skeptical about going down a band and up two cup sizes since I am pretty consistently a 36FF or 34G in Curvy Kate bras. The 34G was too small, as was the 36FF. 34GG is perfect, w/ great projection and lift! Fit tip is accurate on this one! Tess from Raleigh, NC

Extraordinarily uncomfortable bra. The center panel comes up so high and digs in so so painful. Yes, this is the right size for me, and yes I tried adjusting the straps... so much pain. Valerie from CA

Tried a couple sizes. The top of the cups was loose and rippled like it needed a dart. I am full on top of breast so that was unusual. Odd fit. Not my brand.

HerRoom Response: Your symptom of ripples at the top of the cup suggests that tighening your straps could fix this issue. Murphyallen from CT

The recommended sizing was dead on for me. I ended up retuning this bra because it had much more forward projection than I expected. If you don't want your breasts to be front & center this bra probably isn't for you. Susan from Fair Oaks

My new Curvy Kate bra is SO supportive and too beautiful! I went with "Tomima's Tip" from her fit team -with misgivings. I'm a full 38D, but ordered a 36 DDD/E as recommended and I'm so glad I did. Smooth and sexy. Want light pastel colors. Lois from Somewhere, VA

As suggested, I ordered a band size down and a cup size up but the band is too tight. The cup size seems like it would be okay but the side panels rub my underarms bc of strap location. Unsure whether to try another size or give up on style.

HerRoom Response: Your order history shows you are buying and keeping 36G(D4) bra sizes. The recommendation on this style is to move to a 34H(D6). Margaret from NEWBURGH

Love this bra. The color (turquoise), the fit and the style, although I highly recommend going up a band size as well as a cup size. I am a true 34GG and bought a 34H. Way too firm, The 36 band would have been a much better fit.

HerRoom Response:There is a Tomima Tip on this style with a size change recommendation. Robin from Reading,PA

I love this bra but it’s not true to size. I should have went up a cup size. But over all very good bra.

I have a serious problem with wires poking out of there sleeves and bras poking me in the armpits this bra has yet to do that and I've had it for over 6 months.other than that it gives me a great uplifted and rounded shape and my most comfortable bra. Submitted from TheUndies.com

Not a lot of support. Not narrow enough between breasts and spread by breast out 45 degrees making it look unnatural. Also, wire between breast comes up to high and makes a point in my shirts.

HerRoom Response: You have a very challenging size of 38D12. This bra has a size change recommendation of going down a band and up 2 cup sizes. Unfortunately, this bra is not made in a size for you to be successful. And, you are correct that the center panel of this bra is designed for someone with wider set breasts. It sounds like you have touching breasts, so this bra will not fit you correctly. This is not the bra for you. Autumn from Shelby MT USA

This bra fits like a glove, lies flat under clothes, and the center seem really helps pull everything towards the front. I found it to fit true to size. Love Curvy Kate because their bands do not stretch so quickly after wear. Velaire from Durham, NC

Lightweight with great support and lovely lifted shape! The 'Tomima's Tip' suggests the band runs big, but I think it's actually true to size. However, I do agree that the cups are on the snug side, so if you're between sizes pick the larger one. KAS from Washington

I want to love this bra. The band is way tighter than other 34 bands I have gotten. It is uncomfortably tight. I can get a bra extender to help. It does a great job bringing in the side boob, but a warning, the cups will let you jiggle a bit

HerRoom Response: We do not suggest extenders. We always recommend moving up a band size (and thus down a cup size) to get a better fit.

Curvy Kate Response:We have reviewed all our resources. This band is running true to size. We use a firm power mesh for superior support rather than a softer stretchy back elastic. This may be why you are feeling a difference. Carrie from Iowa, United States

So far (worn twice and washed twice) this is most uncomfortable bra I own. The wire is painful at best and uncomfortable at worst. I let the staps out to their max length and it helped only slightly.

Curvy Kate Response: If the underwires are hurting, consider trying Curvy Kate Delightfull Full Cup Bra CK1111 which use our Cushion Comfort tabs at the tip of each underwire to provide more comfort under the arm. Barbra from Blanco, Texas

I normally wear a 36 DD but took the advice and ordered up a cup size. The bra arrived yesterday and I put it on and feel totally happy. Who would believe a bra so nice and thin would give so much support. I don't know about FF and up but for me the fit is perfect. Herroom has the best bra selections and fitting guides and I recommend this website to all of my friends. Kathie Lou from Jackson, WY

I softened this in fabric softener to help soften. It was a bit tight in the band (apparently I’m between band sizes). Overall, a beautiful bra with a good shape. Amanda from Luka, MS

Poor support, straps were too broad and fell off my shoulders, center wires that should have touched my sternum poked out about 4”

HerRoom Response: If the underwires are not resting flat against your chest, we would suggest going down a band size and checking out our Bra Fitting Center to find your perfect size in this bra. Kira from Washington State

For MY breasts at least, there are VERY VERY few bras that meet all these criteria: come in my size, relatively supportive, able to wear under my regular clothes, not painful, not $80 AND ALSO sexy. So to find one that DOES is REALLY EXCITING!! Wish the straps were a little padded and not so wide set, but overall, Curvy Kate, where have you been all my life?? Rebecca from Somerville, MA

Its so cute! Sort of has a pin up look with the lift and point it gives to your breast and the sexiness of the sheer mesh. Submitted from TheUndies.com

The top of the cups were oddly misshaped. They were loose and not at all tight to the body. The top of each cup had an extra inch and a half of fabric that I could have cut off - it was odd. The band size normally fits me like a glove but this one was a half inch too tight. Not a good got all around.

Curvy Kate Response: 4 Part full cup shape which helps center breast tissue. This style fits best on full and round breast tissue. If you are shallow at the top of your breast you will not fill out the top of the cups. That sounds like what happened with you with the top cups. As for the band size running tight, Curvy Kate uses a power mesh band that is a firmer fit than softer more stretchy bands. Power mesh runs firmer so you may have to go up a band size compared to stretcher fabrics.

For better lift and support we would suggest you try Curvy Kate Daily Dream Balcony Bra CK4501. This style is more like a T-Shirt bra with seaming for extra lift and support. Monica

I tried this bra on a whim one day. It was so amazing, I went back and purchased two more from HR. This bra gives me va-va-voom cleavage and feels AMAZING all day long. I don't have issues with my nipples poking through, or seams showing. It is my go-to bra with any outfit. If CK stops making this bra, I will be crushed. Heather from Springfield, MO

I was so excited to try this bra but I was disappointed. The band and straps are sturdy, but the cups could not hold me up. My breast are large and heavy, so it is hard to find a bra that will give the right lift and support. The material on this bra puckered and sagged even after several adjustments of the band and strap.

Curvy Kate Response: It sounds like you need a bra with more coverage under the arm and a larger cup size. A Full busted bra provides higher coverage and a reinforced Cup for added lift and support for much heavier breast tissue. Emily from Richmond, VA
