Hasn't set fit

I have a love/hate relationship with this bra atm. I have already washed it once, very gently. It is very pretty, very supportive, very full coverage - LOVE! It is also very 'pokey' - HATE! It's poking me pretty harshly under my arms. The top of the wire goes back over an inch too far onto my side. The wires are also very high so it is poking into me. Also, the very top of the cups cuts into my breast tissue a tiny amount, Depending on how I scoop and swoop and how I settle into the cups. I wore this bra around the house for a long time just trying to determine if I was going to keep it or not. My husband (who rarely has input in these matters) said that it looks very supportive and it looks like it fits. He said that the cutting in to the top of my breasts is not noticeable. I was starting to believe that I am very FOB but this bra cutting in up top makes me wonder. it is very closed up top, very full coverage.

Grey colorway

    Ahh - I've never had any bra poke me under the arm, I suspect because my roots are low. after all, I"m only (almost) 5'2, so its not like I'm tall. My pics of my Floris show it wrinkling a tad on top, but it no longer does this after washing. Or maybe i got bigger? Lol

    How does the fabric feel? Is it scratchy? Stiff? Soft? Is there flexibility in the top fabric?

    courtnelius the fabric is very smooth but firm. It seems to be the same material as the Cleo minnie. Feels somewhat like swim material, just not that thick! The fabric at the top is thinner and has a texture and airyness to it. It's a little bit more giving. I would say it is not at alllll flexible.

  • The lace on top doesnt stretch, but at first it was slightly loose on me but didnt really show through a shirt. I feel like the fabric has gotten slightly less firm with wear, but it also reminded me of swimwear at first. The underneath of the band and straps are velvety. Much less scratchy than Envy and Marcie lace

    Thanks for the replies, ladies. I've had it in my cart for the last couple of days, unable to pull the trigger,

  • Even with the stabbiness, I feel this bra is incredibly supportive with a firm, secure feel. I hope you try it and let us know how it works out!

    That is a really pretty bra and looks great on you. Too bad it isn't perfectly comfy. Are you going to keep it?

    Wow, comparing your pics and mine on 2 tabs it still blows my mind how it fits us differently! Clearly on you, its up in your armpit and the strap further out on your shoulder, but not on me. (and there's my huge belly, sigh. making me think I need to quit all carbs . . . )

    one of the things that amazes me about bras is how they can look so different even on people who wear the same size. i'm always amazed looking at my uploaded pics vs other people's in my size and seeing how the same bra can give them a completely different shape! and dbmamaz bellies and carbs are beautiful :)

    Thank you so much, Dvrgrl812 ! I am keeping it! Even if it is trying to kill me! :P I could not wait til I got home yesterday so I could take that thing off LOL

    dbmamaz I have 2 bellies, actually. wild_muses is right - carbs and bellies are beautiful! I am glad the bra is up in my armpit lol because I really want my boobs jacked up as high as I can get them.

    Well, glad you are keeping it, anyways. I am on my period and heading in to menopause and I've always been big in the belly but it just seems to be taking on a life of its own recently. sigh.
