Didn't fit

I really WANT to like this bra. It's pretty, and the fabric & general construction of the bra is really high quality. I've never had an issue with the quality of Elomi bras, but this one is really nice. The fabric on the cups just FEELS sturdy. I also like how much fabric is on the band underneath the cups. A lot of people with my figure like bandless bras so the fabric doesn't bunch up; I find having a lot of strong fabric down there also eliminates the problem. It does make my stomach look rather odd in the front facing picture, but I didn't notice it under clothing.

I love the rounded, forward and natural shape I get from this bra. It's not an east-west shape, but my breasts aren't as HELLO HI HOW ARE YOU DO YOU SEE ME????!!! as they can be in an Ewa bra. The wires are perfectly narrow and low, which helps make up for their length. By my eye they look to be pretty much in the middle of my arm pit, but I didn't feel them at all.

Obviously, the bra doesn't quite accommodate for my center-fullness. There's a tiny bit of breast poking out over where the cup and gore meet. A little more stretch lace here would solve the problem, I think. I did the shake and jump test and no more tissue spilled out. If this was my biggest problem with the bra, I'd keep it.

What makes the bra unwearable for me is the in-cup quadding. I attribute it to the elastic at the very top of the cup. With my soft tissue, it's like snapping a rubber band against arm fat (not the pain part, but how the rubber band causes indents in the skin). I really couldn't get a good picture of it, but that is the perfect simile. I am tempted to remove the elastic somehow, but I'm not sure what that would do to the shape. If I ever see one of these on sale I might try it, but I'm not willing to alter a $66 bra.

I think this bra would work well for someone in my range who need narrow wires, but has tissue that's less soft, less center-full or perhaps just a smidge fuller on top.

This bra is not owned any more

  • Wow, pretty and theoretically my size but it doesnt look projected enough. Or really big enough. I mean, I wear 32JJ in panache, you'd think that would be big enough. I just dont see it.

  • Thanks for reviewing and measuring. Do you find the band tts? I was considering getting it but I'm in between 38 and 40 and not sure how the band material stretched considering it's the same as the cup.

  • Adorable colors :-) :-)

  • cupandahalf The band was firm but stretched without feeling like it was about to rip out the hooks or anything. I had it on the second row of hooks here. I'd buy it in a 32JJ if I could. IME Elomi bands stretch out pretty well so I would err on the side of 38. Sorry I didn't take a stretched band measurement, but I try not to in bras I know I'm going to return.

    dbmamaz I wanna say maybe because the fit was very forgiving. If it helps, I comfortably wear a 34J in Panache and find a 34JJ to be big in the cup and especially the band.
