Nice bra, apparently I added this on November 23, 2017 per Bratabase records. I am finally retiring this bra and scraping it for parts February 8th, 2022. I've worn it on and off for the past 5 years or so. The right cup was rather defective and kept curling.

To me, this is quite clearly a date night bra! It is a beautiful balcony bra but not necessarily supportive. The main fabric on the cups is black mesh and it's decorated with intricate pink flowers. The cup consists of three parts with vertical seams. The cups are U shaped, with the length of the wires pretty much evenly divided. There is a little half pocket on the side of the cups, I guess for optional padding. There is a daint pink bowtie with little beads attached to the gore. The upper part of the band is black mesh, the lower part is lace. It is pretty stretchy. ... I must say, it fits me pretty well! The half cups almost perfectly encapsulate my breasts with only very minimal gaping at the seam, like, if I stretch my arms out in front you notice it, otherwise not. I'd really need some more side support but perhaps I can bend the wires a little to help with that. I am considering keeping this bra, because I currently have no pretty bras like this one.

This review is for the Kris Line Betty Soft bra in 34G. My ABTF size is 32G/GG UK (or more) depending on projection.
Band:
* Seems true to size. Only has 2 hooks.
Wires:
* Comfortable.
Cups:
* 3 part cup. The bottom has an inner mesh lining and one vertical seam. The top is a continuation of the non-stretch lace layer that's over the whole cup. There's a tiny band of elastic at the top edge of the neckline to assist with fit.
Straps:
* The straps are stretchy throughout their length. There's a lace overlay on the front portion of the straps.
Fabric:
* A little itchy, may soften with a few washes.
About me: ... very close set (breasts touch), very narrow roots, very projected at the wire, functionally even to full on bottom, short roots, relatively soft tissue, significant rib flares, narrow shoulders.
FIT
* The band length was fine for me, but I did like it on the loosest hook of this 34 so it might run a bit small. I like that it's a bandless style - there's no extra fabric under the cups in front which can aggravate my rib flares.
* The gore floats a little on me. It was nice and short. It was narrow enough for me at .75 inches, but I still might prefer to overlay the wires.
* The cups seem like they'd fit someone a little more full on top than I am. I also think they're for someone with more volume at the apex, whereas I need it more at the wire. The wires are not narrow enough for me and it does not have enough immediate projection for me.
* The straps are long enough.
* The sides are a comfortable height for me.
OVERALL IMPRESSION
* I like the look of this bra for someone who likes lace. It's not a good match for me.

This is a gorgeous bra. The top part of the bra does cut into me a bit since I’m soft and prefer more structured cups.

Margarita was advertised as a balcony, it is practically a semi-soft without cookie pockets. The shallowest 65DD I encountered so far, so it doesn't create the so feared semi-soft torpedo shape. I love the satiny grey with the light pinkish apricot detailing. Very high quality fabrics and overall gorgeous. Sadly, too shallow in this size, should look for it in 65E.

I also managed to buy this accidentally, thinking it was a regular Deco Plunge. I would debate whether it can really be considered a multi way bra: it works fantastically as a backless bra, but doesn't adjust tight enough to wear as a regular bra, and the straps can't be moved (e.g. to wear it as a halter neck). From trying it on it feels stable and supportive, but I haven't worn it long term yet to really test that theory out. Definitely gives great cleavage.

This bra is too small, torpedo-shape, east-west on me https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
The wires didn't seem too wide or too tall, didn't poke. I think that there is good projection at the wire. But, I think there's a risk of the wires being too tall/wide, and the cups being too tall/loose at the top for me if I sized up to the right fit.
This is the second Kris Line bra that I've purchased and I was able to try on some more on my Poland trip in 2015. Overall I think this brand's larger bust offerings would be better suited to someone with medium-height ... roots. I would say that I have short roots and the other KL bra I purchased in another size is a little "floppy" on the top because my tissue can't quite reach up to fill it. But at the same time, a tall-rooted person might have their tissue cut in half by the stretchy lace/elastic decoration at the top of the cups.
It's actually pretty comfortable even though it doesn't fit, and I otherwise would have kept it if the shape was more flattering. Band is pretty stretchy/soft, satin-y straps, surprisingly the lace details around the band weren't irritating. The gore is narrower at the top. "Coffee" color is a yellow-y beige neutral for lighter skin tones, but I think the embroidery would be too noticeable under thin and clingy tops. Most Polish bras are well made in my opinion.
Sorry for the poor quality photos. The side view is easy to see the torpedo effect, but the top view doesn't quite show how much the gore is floating on me. I also think the cup projection near the gore is not deep enough, which may contribute to the east-west shape (forcing my boobs to point out to the sides).
I'm willing to give up a perfect fit for a round uplifted centered shape, but that bra doesn't do any of that for me. For reference, my favorite bras are the Cleo Meg and Marcie. I have yet to find a beloved Polish model.

Too projected for me so I don't quite fill out the cups top or bottom. Wire width was great though and the band looked snug but easily stretched out a lot more. The shape it gave me was very east west as well which I didn't love.

The cups on this bra are very, very small, and so is the band. Seriously. You can definitely see this if you compare the official label to the measurements that I made.

Comfortable fitting bra, good and soft quality

Trying something new and gace this a chance based on measurements. It's pretty, but I feel like my boovs just kinda flop down on the cups with little support. Think cups may be too big? Band feels ok but may be on the tight side.

This bra could be really nice if you find the right size in it. Since sizing for Kris Line is still a bit of a mystery - I usually need a 36GG (low wings for short roots, lots of immediate projection, average wire width, some inner fullness). This is at least one cup size too small - the 38GG would be equivalent to a 36H, but it fits much closer to a 36FF/G.
However, the looks and build of the bra are really nice. The silver metallic fabric and silver accents are really pretty, plus there's a lot of immediate projection and the cups are very narrow. The only thing would be that the material doesn't feel too soft, the edges of the band/cup feel a little scratchy. Might be okay for people who aren't particularly sensitive to it.

The sizing was a bit of a guess, and it's overall too large for me (I'd need a UK 36GG with low wings, medium wire width and some inner fullness). It's probably too large by 1-2 cup sizes, so fits like a 36H/HH or 38GG/H.
On me the gore is relatively tall, the wings are average height and the cups are average width - but again, all these are just relative terms, you'd need to compare this with another bra in the right size to get an accurate picture. The fabric is not stretchy, and the build quality is good (no loose threads). The fabric on the cups is pretty average in terms of softness. The cups are closed off with an elastic band, which isn't too tight - but might be an issue for someone with a lot of upper fullness. The cups allow for quite a lot of immediate projection, as well as inner fullness. Overall could be a very nice bra in the right size.

Nice bra. Very low gore and wings. Good for short and narrow roots. However the gore doesn't tack on me and I'm getting some quadding. Need a different size.
Lace is very pretty but definitely will show through light blouses.
Me: short & narrow roots, center full, close set, pendulous, petite, short waisted, low set, fairly even fullness, narrow shoulders, soft

Soft lining, pretty lace. Gore doesn't tack and top of cup cuts into my tissue.
Not very much coverage at the sides, but maybe that is because this is a little small.

Very pretty bra, but the gore doesn't tack. Projection seems great at the wire, no wrinkles.

Too small in the cup, so I can only say that the cups run very small, quality seems decent, design basic but not ugly.
