Didn't fit

My shape is low set, soft, slightly centre full with short and narrow roots. I think I am slightly conical too, since most unlined bras give me a bit of a bullet shape!

Keep in mind I only tried this bra on for like 5-10 minutes before doing this review. The fit isn't amazing on me, so I think I may re-sell this one.

This bra is gorgeous, with its cream and beiges. The beige is almost golden and it's slighty shiny. There are little bows on the straps, and one on the gore - along with a little jewel. The lace covers the entire bra including the band around to the clasps. The band fits snug but not tight on my 28" ribcage. It measured just shy of 29" before the wires started to distort. Just about right for me. The wires are narrow, but the wings seemed a bit short for me, and I had a bit of side boob escaping. I'm not sure if it's because the cups are just slightly too small or what? I also felt like my breasts weren't securely contained in the centre and top. The upper part of the cups are lace and just a loose lining of mesh, and I think the upper section cut off half way over my nipple, so I felt like I was going to pop out of the top of the cup (or like it may slip down). The support is actually quite good for an unlined bra. I think if it were slightly bigger, I would feel very contained and secure. The straps are wide set, but I have a fairly wide frame, so they are not too bad for me. I could feel a little pressure against my tail of spence, so not sure if that would cause some chaffing during a whole day's wear.

The shape is nice, albeit a bit more natural looking. If I let the straps out to a comfortably loose length, I definately got more pointy than I prefered, but that's just my natural shape, so can't do much about that. It wasn't as rounded as say... Cleo Marcie... but not as pointy as some other unlined bras I've tried. If I tightened the straps up a bit, the shape got rounder.

I can't quite tell if the bottom of the cups had enough projection for me. I only tried it on, but I kept expecting the bottom of the cup to wrinkle (it didn't. Not sure if that would have changed with a whole day wear).

Overall, the quality is excellent, the appearance is stellar, and the comfort is good. I'd keep it if I felt like it fit properly, but I it feels just a bit off to me.

This bra is not owned any more

    Looking at these photos, I would say you look kinda squished for the most part. If you get a chance, you should try a cup size up.

    With that said, you and I are very similar in shape and I have the same issue (in the right size) with the upper lace just sort of feeling less secure. I have been in denial about why, thinking it's just too big, but I think I just lack that top fullness in order for it to feel secure. Just can't fill it out. So if you're FOB like me, maybe that's all there is to it!

    Looks a bit small to me, they're normally more full coverage than this.

    Looks a little small to me too. Gorgeous bra though and looks great against your skin. I love that the lace goes all around the band.

    brasaremean and Sovavosi I was thinking it might be too small. I'm always in between sizes in EM though... with the bigger size gaping and the smaller size puffing. It's so frustrating. I'd love to try a La Gloria in a 65FF if I ever get the chance (or one of the older Szmaragds).

    Thanks AprilGoulding . I was dissapointed it didn't fit better. If I ever see a bratabase listing in 65FF I may try it out.

    Wilderness1 I'm sorry that this bra didn't work out for you. It is truly gorgeous.

    Agreed with everything above. Gorgeous but a bit small.

    Calluna it's a let down... I was hoping it would be magically perfect.

    As beautiful as the bra is Wilderness1, it should be a magical fit. Hopefully you can sell this one quickly and be able to reorder in a larger cup. : -)
