Didn't fit

I bought this Erin in Jun 2017 and had very high hopes for this bra. The Erin is based on the Darcy and my only previous experience was with the Nordic Rose, a bra I grew to hate because of its colorway. The Erin seemed up to the task and checked all the boxes in terms of fit, comfort and appearance. I wished that the color was a little bit bolder as the Pearl Pink seems just a little too faded for my liking.
What frustrated me though was how quickly the eyes were pulling themselves out, a problem a fellow bratabaser also had. In my case, this happened in a little less than 2 months while it took only 2 weeks for this to happen to the other reviewer. I rarely wear the Erin as a result and thankfully, none of my other Bravissimo's have failed at all, let alone so quickly.

Perhaps a Rixie clip will save the day.

Petal Pink colorway

    Admittedly, I have not worn this Erin more than say 5 times during that period but last week I wore it twice, once on Monday and again on Thursday, with great success! My concern with the fasteners pulling out is real but I decided to cope with it - I could always go to the ladies room and go with either of the other two rows in a pinch.

    What I had not noticed before was how comfy the straps were and this is something I started paying more attention to since acquiring my Jenna's. As far as regular straps go, these and to the same extent my Georgia's, have straps that are way better than any of my Alana's, stiff enough to support but soft enough on the shoulders.

    I still laugh though at the eyes of the fasteners which stand up perpendicular to the fastener backing. I keep asking myself if today is the day these eyes get pulled out at an inopportune time of the day. I really should stick to wearing this at home when such an accident won't be a problem.
