I have yet to try Scantilly even though a few of their styles appeal to me. I have just struck out so badly with Curvy Kate that I won't try Scantilly until I get somewhere with free returns ...
There are so many curvy Kate bras that are so beautiful ugh. I haven’t had luck with CK bras, and found their sizing inconsistent. Plus like you mentioned, I cannot deal with their gores :(
Okay, I may or may not have just impulsively spent $110 on a Katherine Hamilton bra and panties because they're having a huge sale, even though all their styles have the high gores that tend to irritate me. But their stuff is soooo pretty, I couldn't help it!!
They don't have a ton of sizes left in stock, but a bunch ...of styles are up to 80% off (and the bottoms are on sale, too, not just the bras) so definitely go check it out! The bra I bought was originally 130 pounds, so $180, but I got the bra AND panties for $110 because shipping was free. Dare I say...score? Read more 50 more words
has anyone go through this online bra fitting course? or is this a scam? i'm interested in taking it, but just because. i don't want to get a job as a fitter anytime soon, i just thought it would be neat to learn and get a certificate. what do u all think?
Both Breakout Bras and Her Room have the In My Dreams sleep bra up on their websites. I'm tempted to try it out, even though the other Curvy Kate bralettes I've tried are too small in the cup for me.
so i wanted to sign up for lingerieoutletstore newsletter to get the first time order promo code and it's not working. i tried using their contact form and it isn't working either... does anybody know what their first time order promo code is?
Hey everyone, Comexim's Valentine's sale (10 - 14th Feb) is only on selected models this year so I asked which these were and thought I'd share <3 Joanna says the promotion will be on: DALIA, ANABELLA, VALENTINA, EMMA, CARMEN, SCOTTIE, PIUME NOTTE, LULU, DOLCE, MOZAIC, PRINCESS, CHIARA, MOULIN ROGUE BORDO, ROSE,RITA, ERIS, ROZALIA, KARINA, LIVIA ... alt=":)" />
This will be my first comexim order! Thinking of Chiara as a 3HC but sadly there's no photos of a 3HC version on this site yet but I assume the black lace overlay would still be ok over the 3HC? Is anyone else thinking of making a purchase? I got super excited and made a little list with links and current prices in case it's useful to anyone else:
So I already opened the Bravissimo chat for all fans to join and just chat about the brand, new releases, etc. Since I recently really got into Elomi I wanna do the same. Pls join if you love their bras and lets chat a bit.
Elomi AW2020 collection is delayed and some bras are gonna release now in 2021. love that collection, So many awesome bras. They really stepped up their game recently. Quality and fit is amazing and I love how most bras have now the firmer wires.
Weird to chime in as I've never actually tried Elomi, but am curious!
I've had a discounted Soraya Rose in my basket for a while now, only size is 32GG/US32J - and I'm contemplating whether that will fit me at quite a 'full' UK32G/USS32I
:/
bubblegum thanks for your comment :) Soraya is a pretty bra I wish I would have gotten one back when it was still available. It looks to me similar in cut to Sachi which I had tried once. In my experience they are more closed on top and tend to cut in on fot boobs so sometimes it's recommended to size up. So maybe it could be worth a try for you? :)
Does anyone know when the new collection of Elomi comes out? I cannot find any info on SS21 yet. I know not all bras of SS20 are out yet and it looked like some will not be available at all? (Why is Lucie already discontinued?)
I read on Stanikomania and/or Hourglassy that some bra companies had pushed collections back because of the pandemic. Many stores were/are not able to make orders because they were unable to open or sell much because of lockdowns. I suspect there are also manufacturing and shipping difficulties. So some labels are doing smaller collections than usual, some scrapped some of their announced releases, and some postponed entire collections (e.g., A/W 2020 will now be A/W 2021). I am not sure what Elomi in particular is doing, but that might explain some of the weirdness.
Hey! I've "found" this "new" bra brand called @Cuup . They have a decent size range, 30-38 band and 1/A-8/H cup sizes. They do a kind of mix of US/EU letters. I wish the world would just adopt the UK standard sizes (though I kind of wish that cup increments went by half inch/1cm). I love the way these bras look! Though ...I don't think the Balconette style they have will fit many people very well. It cuts straight across and does not appear to be stretchy. So unless they've figured out how to do that and not have in cut in or gape, I think the Plunge, Scoop & Triangle styles look quite promising. There are a few in the database, but not enough to get a good understanding of their sizing. Their bra size calculator is OK. They do the whole +2 thing with the band size. If their bands run small, could be a good thing. But it gives a better damn starting size than most places. I'm going to buy one for sure. They recommend I purchase their 32F, so I'll give it a try even though I would typically get a 30 band. I'll get the 30-32 E-F(DD-E UK conversion). Given my weight change I would typically go with a 28-30 DD-F (UK). And that'll give me 4 Cuup bras to add to the database. I sure hope they aren't just another "looks good" brand. Because they look so good and they look really high quality in the close up pictures on their site. They also tell you what size each model is wearing and they actually look fairly well fitted. I am afraid they are going to have really wide wires as they do look wide on some of the models. The reviews look good, but they are only so trust worthy, IMO, as we all know most women are in terribly fitting bras! What do you guys think? Read more 257 more words
Thanks for sharing. I liked the triangle and scoop bras, the others not so much. They also don't look like they would do much for support in the larger cup sizes, do look fine for the smaller size ranges. $68 each seems a bit much for such a simple bra, I could get a similar Aerie bra for half the cost.
@thelittleone , why do you think that they would not support bigger chested ladies? Seems like they would do just fine IMO as long as the band and cups actually fit. I'm not Sure when 66$ became a lot for a bra, especially in this day and age. Most bra companies sell their bras for about that price. Freya, Curvy Kate, Panache/Cleo, Glamorise and TheLittleBraCompany. Even the polish bras go for about that much, maybe 10-15$ less. While one could go to Aerie for a bra half that cost, I couldn't find a single bra on their website similar to any of them available on Cuup. Not only that, they only offer sizes :1-:6 and only on a limited band range, 32-36. 30 band is only available in A-D and 38/40 only offer A-DD. AND they're still telling women if their ribcage measures 30 inches then they should be wearing a size 34 band. Also, their full price bras are between 50-60$. They're just ALWAYS on sale lol. While I know the majority of people don't give a crap or follow the same morals as me. I will always support the smaller company that is trying to do better over the cookie cutter fast fashion company who offers their products at slave wages. Which I'm sure 100% more than you wanted to read lol.
2020 marks the third edition of my holiday giveaway. This year I'm giving away 2 Betsey Johnson bras in 30C, 1 OnGossamer bra in 30D, 1 Cleo bra in 30D, and 1 Victoria's Secret bra in 32B. Private message me with your mailing address or leave a comment in my blog post if you're interested.
It looks kinda similar in cut to 32J - Bravissimo » Nova Lounge Bra (LN764) but comes up to JJ cup! I like how it looks and I am interested in trying it! Size range is 30-40 DD/E - J/JJ! I will add it later to Bratabase when I have more time!
I won't buy Jenna for reasons (straps) but just to let everyone know that missed it the first time or disliked the former color too much.
OMG Millie in teal. The ...color! But the bra does not work for me. Why that one has 10000 colors and others haven't had many pretty fashion colours (Selina, Lacey, Arla, Dina)!
Darcy now in black (meh )
New Zara sleep wear I guess will be popular. I still wait for the bra to expand to K-cups. Read more 56 more words
I have been waiting patiently before finally placing an order and now that it has been shipped, this news surfaces... sob sob sob...
Omg no, I thought it make you happy! but you can always on your exchange order get it? have one reseverd by customer service so you won't miss it. Btw what did you order?
You can't filter by size on the websites but all the bras have the same range, plus there's always the option to request a size or go for a bespoke bra
The drop-down menu has UK 28C-FF, 30 B-FF, 32 A-FF, 34 A-F, 36 A-E for bras, and 28C-FF, 30 B-F, 32 A-E, 34 A-DD and 36A-D for bralets.
I just got an E-Mail about the new size range. Satine used to stop at J cup, Black and Champagne colorways are now available 30DD- 40K. I never tried this bra in the past because I struggle with padded bras and there was no option for me to size up in this style. I'm happy for everyone that is at ...the upper end of size chart for more options.
Bras they have expanded the size ranges already: - Inspire Sports up to K, now up to L. - Arla bra up to J, now up to K. - Stella bra up to H, now up to J.
It's great how Bravissimo tries to offer more sizes. I wish they would expand also the Zara bralette size range up to K cup! Read more 68 more words
