Man, do I love this bra!
At first, I wasn’t too satisfied with it because it felt like it was chaffing my armpits. But afterwards…man. This bra fits like a dream. I wore it for a couple days, and haven’t taken it off unless I’m sleeping.
I had thought I got good cleavage when squeezing into those 34DDD bras, but that’s nothing compared to this. I get good cleavage, good support, AND I don’t fall out. I never thought that I’d see the day where I can proudly hold my chest out in a bra that feels amazing.
I also purchased the Tempt Me Shorts in a size 12. ❤ ’em
Brand: Curvy Kate
Size: 30J
Color: Black/gold
Comfort: 9/10
It’s getting a nine out of ten, simply because I don’t think i’m used to the band being so tight, but it’s nice. I mean, I can’t lay down for a long time in it without feeling too sore, but it definitely supports me the way I need to. I even experimented with tucking the straps away in the cup, and it barely even makes a difference. Which is good, because 90% of the support is supposed to come from the band. And that’s what this bra gives me.
Style: 10/10
I would give this a 100 out of 10 if it were possible. Being a young woman, I’m a fan of cleavage. I love the feeling I get when my breasts create a wonderful line and it makes me feel comfortable. I was told that large breasted women wouldn’t get support from plunge bras, but that was a lie. I get support(see below) while having that nice attractive look that women need for the confidence of everyday lives. I have worn this bra for every event you could think of, and am very satisfied. Although, I do have a slight annoyance with the fact, even though my breasts fill the cups completely, they bunch slightly at the bottom, and I’m not sure why.
Support: 9.5/10
Once I found my true size, I discovered that I do have one breast larger than the other, and it’s only noticeable when I start to move around. My left one is the one that always gives me trouble and starts to pop out at the oddest moments. Which is why I deducted a .5 from the 10. But other than that, I get really good support. The cups are a 3/4 cup in my opinion. My nipples are completely covered, thankfully, and I don’t feel like they sag any. They are where they need to be. My posture has improved majorly because of this, and I can’t complain of having sore breasts when taking off the bra. Which is a definite plus.
Overall: 9.5/10
I really am happy with this bra I ordered from Brastop.com and is my first Curvy Kate bra, and definitely not my last. Yesterday, I purchased two more Curvy Kate, the Thrill Me and the Criss Cross. They should be here in approximately two weeks, and rest assured, I will have reviews for both of those.

Hello. I came upon your blog while I was looking for reviews of this bra. It seems you’re not the only one who gets the bunching in the bottom of the cup. I’m starting to wonder if it is just a design flaw. Thanks for the review and keep doing what you’re doing.

Yes, the tempt me was my very first Curvy Kate bra, but i can now proudly say that I’m the owner of all three Showgirl Collection. The thrill me, which I do have a review up now, is a size 30HH and it does feel nice. The tease me is a bra I just received a couple days ago, is in a 28J. The tease me I had to get a smaller size that 30J because the cups were a bit larger, so you are right there. The fleurty? I don’t think I’ve heard of that one. Do you think you can link me to that one?
The tempt me is very nice. i love low cut shirts, and neither of the other bras are plunging enough to go with the shirts. My measurements are underbust-29, and bust-43. It does help having your right size, as the right size(both band and cup) will support you and decrease any pain that you may experience with large breasts.

Ah, I’ve seen that bra before. I tend to stay away from the mesh-style because my breasts are very weighty and are far apart, and look very unattractive in those types. I see your problem. We also only go to G(US) size here in the US, and band usually start at 30, unless you are an AA-B, then they MIGHT have some 28 bands. I did try the 30J in the Thrill me, the cups were too large and the band wasn’t tight enough. I’m better off with a 28. The Tease me is the same way, I’ve seem to have lost an inch around my ribcage, so they aren’t as tight as I would prefer it to be, but it’s still quite comfy. Of course you can send me some pictures, I’d be delighted to help you out! You can email me at voluptuouslythin@yahoo.com The 30 is slightly less tight than the 28, it’s secure and snug, that’s for sure. I do like having a tighter band though from the 28, but that’s just me. Send me a pic and I’ll see how I can be of help. =D
