Ok so I actually have many many bras still to add and measure, can't seem to find time for it as I've been too busy for months. But I hurried to add this specific bra for you all because it's on crazy sale right now!

Got it on Amazon (U.K.) for 12,90 five days ago - today I noticed it's down to 6,90 😯

*If you want to snatch one as well; the Alles brand size chart shown is sort of adequate, my overbust measures ~100 cm, underbust ~76 cm and the 70I fits me well (so I'd say size down in the band from the chart).*

May even try to return this and order another (or two!) for the crazy sale price, as it's a pretty awesome bra.

Construction / fit:
Narrow wires, pretty deep cups - somehow they feel deeper than they measure? It's a three part cup, lightly padded design with most projection at the apex. I haven't worn this out and about yet, but I'm not quite sure if the bottom of the cups is projected enough? Seems there could be some folding after multiple wears. After S&S the cups are filled well, and the set / placement of the straps does not bother my armpits as much as other (Polish or other) bras. Band fits me well in my standard Polish 70 (in UK brands I'm mostly a 30). Band material is a simple black mesh, this can dig in a bit so I prefer lined bands. But it's a pretty standard 3 hook band, nothing to complain about.

For reference, this 70I fits similar to an Ewa Michalak 70H I think. Or a Comexim 70J/K. And an average U.K. 30H I'd say.

(I actually ordered a 65J as well, to compare, fits equally well in the cups but the band is unnecessarily tight. May hold onto it for if this band stretches quickly, as mesh bands tend to do.)

Design:
I had never tried this brand but I'm definitely satisfied with their aesthetics and value for money! This bra is well made, even if the materials are not too luxurious - the satiny-shiny floral fabric feels slightly cheap. The added lace gives it more depth and richness imo. Personally I love the floral print, but it may be too granny-ish for some. For the price it is certainly a win!

Briefs:
Definitely run small. Ordered the high briefs in a 16/XL but they're t.i.g.h.t.! Just wearable but they feel like a 12 in other brands. For comparison, I comfortably wear a 14 in Panache/Cleo or Curvy Kate briefs, 40 in Ewa M.


I'll leave it at this for now, can definitely recommend this bra!

Edit: both bras and the brief arrived in cute individual powder pink 'Alles' boxes by the way 😊 A bit of a waste of packing material imo, but pretty cute and creates an extra 'gift-to-myself' effect (;
