Krisline is still on there as well.
Started today. Not a lot in the G+ range however, at least in the "middle" bands (32/34). Don't forget they do 2 cm instead of 1 inch in cup sizing up. Nothing that I need, but hope someone else has fun

I don't think I understand the cup sizing though. For example, I'm normally an F cup but I'm not sure the best cup size for Kris Line...
The size chart converts EU and US sizing, but the sizes listed in the drop downs for choosing are in UK sizing.

It looks like it's nearly here (I'm way too excited about this). Does anyone know anything about it?

I was browsing the new styles, because I have EM on my Facebook (even though I disagree with their business ethics they are one of the few bra companies which sell anything close to fitting me), and much to my surprise, the newest S style seems to have PL sizing! You can order it up to a 70 M and ... sister sizes (though they don't appear to have extended the sizing downwards to 65 and smaller bands). I don't see the sizing on any of their other styles, but I'm fairly sure all of us have had experience with how consistently the website is updated (i.e. with no consistency whatsoever)
I wonder whether this means that there's been alterations made to the biggest cup sizes to change the fit or not. I'd wish for better band construction & closer-set straps, but I think the reality is that I can only wear EM as a fashion style for a few hours at a time. The expansion may possibly be useful for some people on here though, especially those who are in higher band sizes who were previously sized out of the S style.

I hadn't even noticed the new size range in the S.
They also have the sizes in S Trapez and 3D Trapez overlapping, eg. both have 32E and 34DD. I wonder if there's any difference in those. Previously 3D has just been the "little sister" or S.
TM - I think there are sort of people who would be 'between sizes' when it comes to the division of the S/3D style. My sister is one of them. She wears a 28FF in most bra styles & has found 60G in PL to be a good fit, but as S runs deep & 3D runs shallow from all reports, she'd probably find one to be a bit big & the other to be a little small. They may be trying to cover the gap there?

Calling all Panache Andorra Full Cup (5675) lovers: I am sad to report that Panache has changed the fit of this bra for 2013. The changes are like this:
1) It now runs about a cup size bigger.
2) Much more roomy in the bottom of the cup.
3) The wings are changed from knit to mesh.
4) The straps have been ... made thicker and more rigid, with added knit fabric sewn to half of the strap.
I honestly don't mind the wings, though I preferred the knit. But the change in the cups makes me very upset. I am historically hard to fit: small band, big cup, full on top, close-set, deep horizontally and vertically, and narrow-boobed. The Andorra was the ONLY bra that fit my boobs perfectly, and now it doesn't.
Even worse is that Panache denies that the fit has changed. I have asked them about it on Facebook and all they will say is that they have shortened the wires. However, the wires are the same length as always: the wire casing is shorter, but the wires are exactly the same. Panache says that the changes to the cups "shouldn't affect the fit" but it very clearly has and I am so sad. I'm also annoyed at the denial!
If you liked the original Andorra, I urge you to contact Panache and let them know that you want it back. I know this was a popular model.

Interesting. I've been meaning to try out the Andorra for a while now, so this is great info.
What colour is the new fit bra [Fashion or continuity?, where did you purchase it from, and when?
PetitePlentiful it is ALL the colors, continuity and fashion, from 2013 on. So for fashion, Caribbean Blue, Jade Green (Bravissimo exclusive), Spice, etc, and all the continuity colors as well. I have verified it personally with a Pearl, a Jade Green, and 2 Caribbean Blue full cups.
I think it's nuts. Andorra was their most popular style in years, it gained them a lot of market share, because of the fit. Remodeling the whole line 2 years later is ridiculous.

Braologie's redesigned Mini Vest is out, and the promo is a good one. Until October 25th, it's $19.99 each, with free worldwide shipping! They renamed it the Bracie, and the coupon code is BRACIE2013. Here's the page:
http://static.olark.com/jsclient/follow.html?_ok=8813-260-10-7336&wcsid=9t79uIP3KMc3vVts6X71Q5P1EWX7FbUC&_oklv=1381885964660,9t79uIP3KMc3vVts6X71Q5P1EWX7FbUC&hblid=fZMGvYIuhp6Y7CoN6X71Q5P1EWF0PAe1&_okgid=**null&olfsk=olfsk47084968920166403&url=aHR0cDovL2JyYW9sb2dpZS5jb20vcHJvbW8ucGhwP2lkPUJSQUNJRURFQUwyMDEz&host=braologie.myshopify.com
They said the free shipping is for the Bracie only. If you also order bras, you'll still need to spend $100 to ... get free shipping. According to the promo page, the Bracie will be $55.98 when it's regular price. That's a jump from when I ordered the Mini Vests in March. They were $39.99 each.
They said there will be a promo for the Bracie after October 25th, until when I don't know, but it won't be as good. I'm trying to decide how many Bracies to get, and whether I can justify getting the camisole or bodysuit.

Thanks for the info! I tried their bras and they didnt fit but at that price ill try tue vest!
How has it been redesigned? I had some problems with the original vest scrunching up by the hooks, and I felt it needed some boning to stop that. I liked the idea, I just thought that it had some issues.

I just saw this posted on Butterfly Collection Lingerie's fb,and it looks quite nice!Well,to me,anyways,as I'm a fan of beige.This better have a lower gore than the Andorra (for my sake,though I'm sure some would like the higher gore),or I hope they come out with a plunge version like they did with that one.
A modern classic, Envy has everything a full bust bra should have. Support, comfort, elegance and a huge size range.

I've been waiting for that one.
And dahlia too.
Dahlia is already on ebay for 26 pounds, but where is envy?? :(
Hmm. Looks like the discontinued Panache Emily (6101) I just got with different details (lace, fabric, etc.). I wonder if Emily was the old version of this one (or of jasmine).

I have no experience with this brand, but I've heard about it. The bras have very interesting construction, meaning that some of them are all lace with no seam, or have a V shape and thick straps that connect, creating the V. Their sizes run 28 AA-G, 30 AA-FF, 32 AA-F, 34 AA-F, 36 A-D, 38AA-D, 40 AA-DD
for this sale, ... however there are random exclusions. The prices are $24-$44. I would highly recommend checking this out if you're a small cupsize and can't find sexy bras. Here's my link to join http://www.hautelook.com/invite/LCohen707
and I've attached the link to the sale.

So I had been thinking about trying the CH Biszkopty in a 38GG and for some reason it had been on my mind all day and I couldn't stop thinking about it.Ewa's fb page posted about a sale and so I went to see what items were on sale and noticed the CH was almost all sold out in most ... sizes even though the day before it said "infinite number".
Grrr.I guess they ran out of fabric and updated the site.I'll try emailing them anyways.Do they do this often?lol
But the good news is that some of their bras are on sale..limited amount of sizes,of course,but if you go to all bras and hit "price ascending" you'll see it.

So, I bought this braologie-type bra off of ebay. It only comes in sizes 32-40 B-DD (UK). I wear a 28FF/30F and figured that it would only be a cup off and since it has 5 hooks, it would still possibly support me, so it could possibly fit.
Well, it didn't. But, the quality of the bra is amazing for ... $7.42 and free shipping. The band has more than sufficient support for my 27 in ribcage. The cups do seem more than a cup off, so I would guess that it runs about a cup small. But it's beautiful (I got black) and soft and comfortable. And the straps are moveable, so you can do halter and criss-cross. And they're fully adjustable! I'll add it to bratabase later for the measurements.
So, if you're in their limited size range, I definitely recommend the bra. And even if you're a 28-30 band, you might be able to find support in this. Just consider going down a cup size unless you're really shallow.
And the shipping was really fast! less than 2 weeks from China!

Made in Preston's first bra is now out for sale And oh, the knickers too of course. We don't know a lot about this brand yet (whether they typically have relatively narrow/wide/average underwires, high/low wires and etc.) but I just wanted to put it out there for those who might not know about Made in Preston. They sell boob-friendly clothes too.
And oh, btw, they're selling 26" bands, NOT on custom order! Up to a J cup in 26" bands.

Ooh- that's quite nice - not really what I was expecting but still nice. It's obvious the they're aiming at a younger market than the average 'full bust' (oh how I hate that word) brand, which is really refreshing.
I was expecting something quite different when they keep calling it 'punk inspired', but it is something unusual for this market.

Panache Clara
Just wondering if anyone has seen/tried this bra in person?
Is the strap really more center pull in location?
I only noticed it because on Figleaves, the same model is in the Panache Andorra Full Cup (5675) and the cup construction looks different. (Link: http://www.figleaves.com/us/set_product.asp?product=Panache-Andorra-Full-Cup-Bra-Set&product_id=PA-5675&colour=Reds)
Is this a new model? (tag doesn't work right now and ... the model number is higher than Andorra)
Has Panache listened to its customers and created a bra with straps that are more close-set?
It's also cheaper (!) than Andorra and is listed at $47 at Figleaves.
Should I be doing a happy dance?
(ETA The strap looks like some of the "helper strap" constructions by bratabasers whose names escape me right now. Holy...!)

It depends a lot on shape. I think the need for center-pull straps most common in women with narrow breasts with a lot of forward projection. If you have wide breasts, wide-set straps are going to give you good support because they're close to your breast's center of gravity. If you have narrow breasts, wide-straps may end up over an area where you have little or no breast tissue and no matter how much you tighten them, you won't get any lift. As for this bra, I still think the strap is going to be positioned poorly for the narrowest among us. Even with the wide anchor, I think it wouldn't give enough support for the inner quadrants for breasts like mine. It may be awesome for some women though, so I'd wait for some feedback from those who've tried it.
Oh my goodness! It's so pretty!
Ahem
Tbh I'd love to try out that sort of strap- it looks comfy, but combined with panaches super wide wires I might have to give it a miss (crys slightly)

Today on zulily there are 3 bra brands. #1 Amoralia is for maternity/soft cup/non-wired/nursing bras(and a few camis) . The brand is quite similar to hot milk and runs 32B-38G(B,C,D,DD,E,F,G and a random 40 B thrown in there), and it's $25-$40. #2 Mia by Amoena is like if panache and natori had a baby. The bras are sexy and ... many are very practical. The sizes are in US sizes- 32-40 C-J, 42-46 C-I, 48 C-DD (C,D,DD,DDD,G,H,I,J = C,D,DD,E,F,FF, G,GG). The prices are $23-$26. The last brand, #3, is Lunaire, their bras are simple and feminine with a lot of lace. They carry 30 D&E, 32- 40 B-F, 42 C-DD, 44 D&DD, and 46DD (B,C,D,DD,DDD,DDDD,E, F). The prices are incredibly cheap $10-$15. My link http://www.zulily.com/invite/lcohen217 and the link to the site.
