Didn't fit

I really enjoyed the Skarlett Blue Condesa Balconette in 30D, so I wanted to try more from the brand.

Upon first impression, I really liked this bra, but after playing around with the fit, I decided this isn't right for me.

The cups here are made from really gorgeous, soft lace that disappears nicely under tight clothing. It's a surprisingly comfortable style and looks beautiful on. However, the problems with this bra come from the lack of support commonly found in brands that design for appearance and comfort over functionality.

This style has decently wide wings, but the fabric and elastic of the band have a lot of give, so the band only gives medium support. This became a problem for me because the cups themselves are not designed with much support or structure. The cups are structured almost like a bandeau with light seaming in the center front of the cups for shape, but the top of the cups is very open and the cups are on the taller side. If the band is not tight enough, the cups will gap at the top when moving. However, when I tightened the band to the tightest hook, the cups ended up flattening me out and giving me pancake chest. This is because the cups don't have enough shaping built in, so tightening the band results in pulling the entire front panel into the body.

This style might suit someone who is FOT or has tall roots and is OK wearing the band a little on the looser side, however I am unsure how much the lace of the cups stretch as the effect on the lower part of the cup might be flattening.

Papaya/Nude colorway

Cups don't have enough structure or support, so when band is worn tight, the fabric smashes all breast tissue flat like a bandeau
