I'm a C cup but everything I've tried there feels small.  
Their stuff is so cute tho , but  it doesn't stay on long ....

Does any one else feel like the cups of the bra look to small on women? I get fitted in the store and feel like they look small. I understand they are not intended for support but I see it even on the models. Is it just the style? When I'm being fitted I always request trying a size bigger.

I'm a member of the itty bitty titty committee and depending on the style, (demi, full, plunge, whatever) they are definitely made small, but I like the look as it's definitely flattering for smaller busts. The issue with sizing up is many of them are made of delicate fabrics that don't look very good when they are baggy.

I like AP, but I've been finding lots of lingerie gems in other less popular places

I'm petite so everything fits me well, it's nice to have a store that has sizes that fit me but definitely try on various sizes if your purchase in stores. I order mine online my size and it works out everytime. Like she said, just look at the style of of bra and decide, if you have some already you might be able to tell.

Please PM me about these other gems! I have a small chest and feel they still seem small.

I'm definitely a cup size up at AP, and so is pretty much everyone I know.  
As for the bras looking small on models, I've heard that a lot of times the bras made for photo shoots are samples only in one size - so they send women who are that size. However, as we ladies know, boobs change! So maybe what was the perfect size for a model 3 months ago (or a year ago) might not be quite right. Or maybe the sample is slightly off. Or maybe (and this one is unlikely but still possible) the model fudged her bra size a liiiiiittle bit.
Which is why a lot of lingerie photoshoots you'll see models who don't quite fit the bras they're wearing.  
All that said, I think the cups run a little small at AP to make your breasts look a bit larger and liftier.

They sell a lot of "demi cups" which are meant to only cover half the breast at best. If you buy them in your correct size they should give you the ~ample bosom~ look of your boob popping out over the top.

I can buy AP lingerie in my 34B size however depending on the set the panties might be a  2 or 3.
I love their bras enhances the cleavage I have without all of the padding that you sometimes see in the VS bra.
Happy shopping love AP:)

besides AP. I'm not a fan of theirs as I prefer not to fork over my money to brands that make it clear they don't cater to my needs and make me feel like an other.
