Hi Bratabase!

*waves* Hi! I haven't been on in a long while.
But I've been thinking of buying some new bras, so I'm poking around here again.
The three I have in mind right now are the Fantasie Rebecca Spacer Moulded Bra (2024) , the Cleo Kali (can't get it to link?) , and the Curvy Kate Luxe Strapless/multiway Bra (CK2601) (and maybe the Curvy Kate Starlet Moulded Bra (CK2501), but that's not on HerRoom right now?)).
I desperately want to try the Luxe as I really really want a strapless bra. I don't really have high hopes for it, but it's literally my only hope at the moment, so..
One of my last posts here was about wanting a neon yellow bra, which is where the Kali comes in. However, I've tried a couple bras with just fabric cups like that and they've never worked for me. But I'm still really tempted because of the colour.
The Rebecca looks appealing because it's a t-shirt moulded bra in a variety of colours. One thing I'm a bit confused about is that HerRoom has it up to 30H, but Bratabase only has it up to 30GG.
Looking at the Starlet for the same reasons as Rebecca.

In other, somewhat related news, I think I've shrunk a bit. My boobs have been feeling a bit smaller lately, and I finally did a quick measurement check last night, and I think they have. I'm like ~28.5" under and ~37" across, compared to ~29.5" under and ~38.5" across, if I recall. My bras still work fine, but I'm crossing my fingers this means I can try some (slightly easier to find) 30H's instead of 30HH.
I'm also not sure why, because I think all my other measurements are the same - but I guess I haven't really checked, so. *shrug*

  • Just a little note on the Rebecca: it's made out of moulded spacer material, not foam. Spacer is a three-dimensional knit fabric, which is thicker than ordinary fabric, but not as thick and dense as regular bra cup foam. It's very light and airy and I personally am a great fan, but it won't always prevent "headlights", if that is an issue for you.

  • Don't forget to add new profile measurements so you can easily know what changed, keep track of them and also that when you set fit for your new bras you don't do it with outdated numbers.

    I am making a change so it won't be possible to use them to set fit if they are older than one year.
