This bra is discontinued.
So I'm kind of in love with this bra. =) From the first moment I tried it on, it just felt right... I mean, it's so comfortable and looks amazing too!! It gives a really nice shape, but when I first wore it, it seemed a little pointy when looked at from the side. That went away after a wash or two, though, and now it's perfect... Still, I have to be careful of wearing this under thin shirts or with light colors because it's completely see through.

Generous, comfortable cups, with lift & separation. Rounded silhouette. Pretty embroidery. But I have the same problem I do with Fantasie: the band is made of a harsh mesh material, with rough elastic that does not lie flat. I can only wear this bra for about 5 hours before the side wing fabric begins to rub raw spots on my skin.

Thanks for the thoughts, but that's definitely not the problem. If anything, I could stand to go up to a G. I get a perfect fit in both the Mischa & Iona in this size - but they're a nice soft satiny fabric, not mesh. The band's not moving around at all; it's snug on the middle hook. It's the mesh fabric of this style that is the problem for me. I find it rough on my skin & not flexible enough to conform to my boobs.
Ok, so I'm still working towards figuring out my real bra size through trial and error...
Band size is good, though a little tight since it's a new bra. Cup size is definitely too small, though. No matter how I arrange myself in the cup, I'm still spilling out. This isn't very noticeable from the front, and looks just fine under a shirt. But, this messes up with how the bra is supposed to look in profile... I should be lifted up, but instead it makes me point downward with all of the excess breast tissue coming up over the top of the cup. Not a good look. However, the bra itself is gorgeous. I got it in Cassis, and the color combination is so so pretty. For now, I'll have to return it, but I'll try it when I can in a 28G.

Sexy, supportive see-through bra

This is simply gorgeous. I wish I could find one of these in my size, and that my shape worked with it better. I can't say too much about this bra, because,obviously it's nowhere near my size, and isn't even a pepper sister size. What I will say is that the width of these wires are 100% perfect. I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a 30G with 5 inch wide wires, but by God I'm going to try.

ahhh! This bra is absolutely beautiful. I feel sexy wearing it because it is so sheer and pretty. I will most likely keep this bra even though the fit isn't perfect. The gore is a little high for my breasts and leaves pretty severe marks. The band is a little too stretchy. I would say closer to a 30 band than a 28. I am a tight 28 and I can wear this on the tightest hooks, but it feels most comfortable on the middle hook. The details of the bra are really beautiful and girly, but also sophisticated and sexy. It is sheer, so nipple show occurs and it may be best suited for summer time. All in all, I love this bra, but it isn't a perfect fit for me. I may keep it and I may end up listing it. We will see.

This bra fits me if I put it on the tightest band clip and use a racer back clip for support, the straps are too wide for me and the band is too loose for me, but finally the wires are just right for me. so I'm happy with it.

Thank you for your review! I've never thought about using a racer back clip to get more support, I'm going to have to try that. I think we might fit in bras the same way. Have you tried Cleo's Marcie yet? I love how it fits in the cups but the band loses it's elasticity too fast to really make for a long lasting bra. However, Panache's Andorra has the best, most durable band ever but the cups have a conical fit, and the lace is atrocious under shirts without a cami. Have you tried any other bras that have worked for you? I'm still questing for the perfect bra, but I should probably just learn how to sew one.
I quite liked the Marcie but it wasn't great for me the wires felt too wide. I'm trying the polish bras right now, theres so much trial and error in the sizing, that its turning out to be a rather long project, but I do think I'm having better luck with the polish brands. All I've worked out, is that I really need a 60 or 55 back in Ewa Michalak, the closest I've come to a good fit in Ewa Michalak is 65FF but the back is way too big. Comexim I think I must be a 55 J or K but I really have no idea right now. I've tried some 60 H Comexim bras and mostly the cup was too small and band too big, but the wires were much better size for me. Also I tried the Comexim "Snow Biustonosz" and "Basic Bra" in 65G and wierdly the band felt tighter than the 60's Comexims I had previosly tried, but they were still too loose in band and small in the cup for me, I'm not giving up though....
This bra is so beautiful. 😍
Color: black About the bra: This bra is completely sheer. It is also very sexy.

Looks like a great fit - narrow wires & deep cups. I would prefer a longer wire - might try a 28F.
Sheer black mesh - just great for summer evenings!
Can recommend for average to narrow, even to projected FOB shapes.

I have owned this bra for a couple of years now and it's still holding strong. A beautiful sheer appearance but practical enough to wear everyday. Good quality for the purchase price, I put only "Good" for comfort as the wires sometimes poke me on the side but they may be slightly too narrow for me.
The shape is a little "pointy", which I don't mind, but this is not for someone looking for a round shape. I would say it fits true to size. The band is a little loose - at least compared to brands like Ewa Michalak and Fraulein Annie - and I wear it on ... tightest hooks. It hasn't stretched much during the time I have owned it.
I would say the wires are on the narrow side and cups are deep. As I don't have a lot of upper breast fullness there is a little empty space there but not as much as it would bother me. On the other hand the center of the bra does not stretch and it cuts a little on my breast. A little note about the straps - I feel they are unnecessary wide for my size.

In this case, the band is rubbing on you because it is too big. A tightly-fitting band of the proper size doesn't move around, so you don't get the rubbing. The cups are too big as well, since you can't fill them and the wires are too wide. You should downsize in both band and cup.
