    • Looks like their cups did get larger.

    • Yes, I believe they made some alterations. This bra is from 2009, so it's quite old.

    • Wow

    • Staaldrigstill
      I want one of these! :)
      Is this a new version of the 2009 model or is the same model from 2009? Thanks!

    • I bought it unused from someone on r/braswap like half a year ago, so I don't know if it's a remake. You could always try emailing the wonderful folks at Mimi, mostly they answer their mail within 15mins during the days :)

    • It's just the cups are bigger than most of the 28FF Mimi Holliday bras on bratabase. I think in January is when they started making their bras a cup size bigger

    • Hmm, yes. I was also a bit puzzled by how much projection the cups had. I'll remeasure tomorrow just to be sure!

    • Staaldrigstill It is a gorgeous bra! :)

  2. Elferine Lace Comfort Bra (AW12-210)

    I´ve developed huge addiction to Mimi Holliday lingerie... they are just so pretty! I love their unorthodox colour combinations and style which is quite unique.

    This is called a "comfort" bra and it sure feels comfortable. In fact, it feels like I have nothing on! The lace of the soft cups stretches a little which makes a better shape for my boobs. If it didn´t stretch, I guess I would get a pointy look, but now the look is natural. The wires are wide enough for me, something which is an issue in most bras.

    The band is snug and I think runs true to size, I wear 28. Straps ... are partly adjustable and very narrow + they stretch very much. I manage with them. Just be aware that they are tiny in width and probably not very supportive.

    Overall I love this bra! If you need a lot of support, this is not for you, but is you need something comfy and pretty, then it works https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    ETA 1. The wires are very stretchy in my padded Mimi Holliday bras, but in these comfort soft cup bras they are much more sturdy!

    ETA 2. My boob shape has changed and now cups are a bit too small. The center gore doesn´t lay flat, and when I push it there is some quadboobing in the middle.

    My fit needs: projected, immediately projected, slightly narrow, fob with tall roots (functionally even), very close set, very center full.
    Ugh this bra is so beautiful. It would be comfortable if it fit my shape and wasn't so wide and shallow and ran small, probably more like a 28E.

    An excellent example of Mimi Holliday. Better for lounging than for an active day.

    This is one of the most beautiful bras I have ever seen. The coral silk satin overlaid by deep red lace creates an absolutely stunning and sensual look. I love the style and how the lace continues over the edge of the cup. The materials feel very soft and high quality, and the golden hardware add even more luxury to the appearance.
    Unfortunately, the fit on me is horrible. I got this bra about a year ago, at first as a 28F which was my standard size at the time. It was way too small and I exchanged it for 28FF, which was still too small. I either ... didn’t realize or care, and there wasn’t even bigger size available.
    Although the lace is quite stretchy, I get some quadboob over its edge. The cups are very shallow and wide, which does not suit my narrow and projected shape at all. The gore is not even close to tacking, and there is almost 5 cm empty space under it. Gore is rather wide and tall as well, so it wouldn’t even fit between my breasts if the cups were deeper. The band seems like a standard 28, and it has rather unusual 4x1 hooks. Everything feels soft and nice, nothing pokes anywhere. But I never wear it, because a) I’m afraid I would wear it out and b) it does nothing to my boobs.
    On a more positive note: I am in love with the co-ordinates! The matching suspender belt is one of my favorite garments in the world (although I never really wear suspender belts). It sits perfectly on the waist, and the taller cut is very flattering and shows the beautiful lace pattern. The matching thong is extremely low coverage, and fits rather loose for an XS. It nevertheless looks very nice when paired with the suspender belt. I love the overall look and rest of the set so much that it makes me hate the bra even more for its stupid fit! It just doesn’t look good at all on me. I think I’ll just try to find another bra to match the lovely bottoms.

    This bra is really gorgeous, but is a horrendous fit on me. I think I need at least 2 cup sizes up, maybe more. The straps are only half adjustable as well, and for me they would never have come close to the proper length as they are quite long. I love the design of the bra, and especially the thin straps, so I'll likely be looking for another Mimi Holiday, but of a different style because this doesn't come in the size I would need.

    Seems I´ve developed kind of an addiction to Mimi Holliday lingerie, I just love their looks! This is a nice bra with silk and lace covering most of the cups. The lace is peach-coloured and the silk beigish / champaigne or something.

    This bra is very comfortable although not the most supportive one. The 28 band is nice and snug on me, I wear it in the loosest hooks. Straps are partly adjustable, which is okay for me. The cups are quite shallow in this model, I mean in a way that nipples / areolas almost peak out! Luckily this seems to cover them just and just, ... in my Elferine plunge bra they show a little bit (that is also a 28FF). Other than that the cups are quite fine. There seems to be slight quadboobing when I first swoop and scoop but it gets better after a while. Anyway, there´s really no way to size up because this model doesn´t come in 28G. People say that cups in Mimi Holliday bras run small and that must be true.

    EDIT. Yes, quadboobing, and therefore the center gore doesn´t sit flat against my sternum.

    EDIT. The wires if some Mimi Holliday bras are very stretchy. So the cups will get a little pulled when wearing the bra. So beware. I replaced this bra´s wires so they are much sturdier now.

    28FF

    Didn't fit

    I had this bra first in 30E where the band was too loose and cups too small, so I ordered 28FF.

    The band is now good and the cups are better but there still is some minor quadboobing, especially in the left breast which is bigger. The bra sits comfortably but I think the straps might be a little too far apart. We´ll see if it is a problem when wearing it.

    The bra is very pretty and the colour is just wonderful, but the cups are really "short", meaning my nipples are just barely covered! The other nipple is trying to poke out a little. Maybe this is a ... bedroom bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

    ETA. Now after wearing the bra for 1 day I´d say straps are okay. They are placed far apart, but there seems to be no problem with it. They don´t slide off shoulders or anything. Fits quite nicely actually, because I haven´t even remembered I have a bra on! The quadboob doesn´t show too bad under shirt...

    EDIT. The wires if some Mimi Holliday bras are very stretchy. So beware. I replaced the wires of this bra so they are much sturdier now.

  10. Coco Loco Silk Shoulder Bra (SS12-72)

    This bra fits just as all my lace comfort bras. 28FF is perfect for me. Note that cups run small, usually I wear 28F (Panache etc).

    The shoulder lace feels more supportive than the plain lace comfort bra. The straps are sturdier and wider than in the lace comfort bras. Still only one hook/eye per row, but 4 rows. Straps are partly adjustable.
