So we were still missing the upper part to the Buttercup panties. Here it is now, the Sportsbra Jasmine.

Large Bust? Try princess lines!

I was recently discussing a Daisy with a large bust point in a german online community. The fit was already pretty good, but OP didn't like the large bust dart at all.
