Surgery on a molded-cup bra?

Hey friends,

Has anyone ever tried to cut out the form lining on a molded-cup bra with a lace overlay? (I'm talking specifically about the VS Body by Victoria Demi, but other results would be helpful.) I don't hate this bra, but I just don't really like molded cups and I'm morbidly curious about what would happen. Does it ruin any possible structure and bra-purposes of a cup (shaping, holding in place, etc). Or has anyone had surprisingly good results from it? Or, if we don't have any data, should I find a give-away/cheapo and indulge in some bra-butchering? For science!

  • I have a preference for molded cups so I've never tried it, but I'm a big fan of scientific endeavors!

    but in all seriousness, i feel like it would render the bra unwearable, or at least take away all support. the lace on the VS bras are usually just slings of them and not really attached to the straps at all, so i think there wouldnt be anything for it to hold onto if you cut the foam bit off.

    but, if you do want to try, i think the VS semi annual sale still has some stock in stores! you could probably get one for $10ish and hack away without too much remorse.

    **EDIT** im a donk! the demi if it is full lace would go all the way to the straps, so maybe it could work. FOR SCIENCE. i think the body line does an unlined demi too, but i only ever see it online.
