I can see why so many people are fans of the Charlotte Padded bra made by Parfait by Affinititas. Tbe retro design gives me a very forward projection. It's definitely a turn on for my boyfriend. Despite the forward thrust the bra provides, my boobs feel a little unsupported at the bottom of the cups. I think most of the support comes from the side of the cup where a wide piece of fabric connects the cup to the band. That fabric pushes my breasts closer together and prevents east west migration which is usually a problem for me. As a result I have fantastic cleavage and my breasts look full and front and center. The only problem is that my breasts are closer together than normal and the the center gore doesn't lie flat agaist my sternum as with most other bras. It's not uncomfortable this way at all, but I think some support and upward lift of the breasts is sacrificed. If the gore can't sit flat against my sternum as the rest of the band does around my back, the band as a whole loses it's stability. As a result, my breasts tend to fall down into the cups as the day goes on and feel less supported.

This is truly a minor problem for me though. The overall shape and look this bra gives is really pretty. The support is also phenomenal on the sides of my chest where my breasts tend to migrate. What I like most about this bra is its retro design. It's very pin up girl style. I've always liked that aesthetic and will definitely be keeping my eye out for other similar Affinitas designs.

  I would be very much interested, which colour did you get? And do you think the cups / band run small/normal/big, for example compared to Panache, Freya, etc?

  It definitely runs small in the band and cup, especially if you are FOT.
