Didn't fit

I bought this bra used , and it was a bit more used than advertised (not bratabase ) so marked it as altered as I don't know how much it has been stretched.

Quality , feels cheap ,stiff .
This is a odd bra gives a odd shape points to the side and flat in the front .
And I feel squeezed in by the cups . I don't wear padded bras and only picked this one up cheap to help see if I would like one and what my size might measure ..unfortunately this bra has failed I think in helping me . How am I supposed to decide which pretty polish bra I want without knowing if it's impossible to even wear a bra that has padding . Sigh

    Do you have any bra boutiques near you to go in and try if they stock some Polish brands? Some online stores are good about returns too just be sure to check their return policy. Sorry this didn't work but I bet you will like the Polish brands :)

    I have several bra boutiques near me but only 2 with extended sizing , one charges for "fittings" however you can't just try on bras there so I will not shop at that store don't think they have polish brands , and the other I know doesn't. I was just in , a lovely shop with only d+ limited selection in my size . The owners are very up-to-date on fit and trends maybe "they need a few do you carry this brand ? "

    I'm sorry this didn't work out for you! I've tried Flirtelle too and the padding felt very stiff and unforgiving compared to my Comexim bras. I think you might like the padding on Polish bras better - in my opinion it's much softer and doesn't try to mould my tissue into a particular shape.

  • Isn't Flirtelle the cheap sister of Curvy Kate ? They are always on some kind of sale on Brastop, but I was hesitant trying their bras. This review has further discouraged me in that.

    Well I decided I couldn't live with the odd shape and hated the feel of the padding . So last night I to my seam ripper and scissors to it and bye bye padded lining hello very sheer bra . The bra itself looks so much nicer , alluring and it is supportive . I would not jog in it lol . It's still way too shallow , and not the prettiest shape but it will do . I would not buy this brand again myself .
