My shape: Even to FOB, soft, low set, with narrow and short roots.

The bra: This bra is so pretty! Such a beautiful springy-summery bra, I love it! The colours are vibrant and pop out set on the white background. There is a tiny white bow on the gore and straps; very cute and understated. It is a 3 part lightly padded half cup with 2 vertical seams, and it is a longline with 5 clasps x 3 columns. The material is satiny on the outside and cottony on the inside, which means shirts don't get stuck on the outside material. Straps are fully adjustable, and I have plenty of length left even though I'm lower set. I find the band "true to size" for a 30, stretching just past 30" before wires start to distort... snug not tight, and perfect for a longline. This bra is super comfortable on top of everthing... No rubbing, chaffing, etc. The lower band does bunch up a bit after wearing it, but I think that happens in most longline bras.

The shape: ROUND, uplifted, centered, cakes on plates. The cups are short enough to really show off the upper portion of the boob, and I'd definitely say it rivals Ewa Michalak bras for shaping. Of course, this bra is slightly small on me, so maybe I'd get less cleavage in a properly fitted bra, but I am impressed anyways. The straps are also not as wide-set as EM bras are, so there was no tail of spence chaffing. There are no cookie pockets, so keep that in mind if you're comparing EM vs this bra.

I'm considering ordering the larger size to see if it encloses everthing a bit more. I do feel a bit squished, and my upper boob is flattened from the bra being a bit too small. I am worried that the larger size will be too large and create gaping though (ggrr, I hate being between sizes). Either way, lovely bra all around.

This bra is not owned any more

• I wish i could wear it - but longlines are definietly not for me. Shame bravissimo doesnt offer it as a normal bra, as definitely Id buy it! Im very glad you like it (at least the aesthetics)

• martka00 I know! I was thinking the same thing about it being a regular bra! Do you think a cup size up would be too big?

• I think we should share the idea with bravissimo! :D

  in my opinion, the bra doesnt look like its size too big, more like half size - im not sure how the wires would be in bigger size. If youd decide, probably youd need to use cookies with it?
  I found bravissimo to be weird. I bought two plunges couple of days ago, and while the padded one I had to have in 30F, the soft I needed in 30E (and I have already same construction soft one but old model/sample and 30F is perfect). Also Satine i need to take in extra bigger size 30FF!

• martka00 thanks for that. ... That's what I'm worried about too, and there are no cookie pockets, which is less comfortable. Maybe I'll just stick with this size. Perhaps the cups will stretch a touch and be just right. I really hate gaping in bras!

  That size variation would make it hard to shop online! So far I'm happy with Bravissimo though, so it's worth it! I haven't tried their satine bras yet because plunges don't really work for me, but I love the way they look.

  yeah, no cookie pockets its a struggle sometimes. Especially with pretty bras like this one! so lets hope as you saying it might stretch a bit and then will be great :)

  I agree, but im glad I ordered bras in two sizes (intuition worked very well!). Im very bad with plunges, so far didnt find perfect one as I have tall roots and all digs in, but now im wearing 30F - Bravissimo » Flutter Me Bra (LN236) for around 15 mins and seems to be promising, and has only tiny diggin in. Satines are bit worst but acceptable. Ill see how the 30F - Bravissimo » Starry Eyed Bra (LN271) will work as I might switch to them from Satine . Also I found bravissimo to be more comfortable than most brands (even Ewa bras and some Comexims) . If youll have a chance to try, go for it girl! Sometimes minor issues (like small digging in) are less important than the comfort offered by them.
