Didn't fit

I bought this 4 or 5 years ago in white/pink and beige/nude at the same time as a Flirtelle Anneliese from Brastop. Service was excellent and I would buy from Brastop again without hesitation.

Aside from the different band lengths, the CK's were very similar to the Flirtelle Anneliese for me which, unfortunately, was not a good thing. The Portia did not feel supportive enough and the coverage was less than I wanted.

I moved on from the CK's at the same time as the Flirtelles, which was before I discovered Bratabase so I do not have any measurements.

black/pink colorway

This bra is not owned any more

  • I still shake my head when I think about how much bounce I got from the Curvy Kate and Flirtelle bras I purchased in 2014. The looks I got were disconcerting, even more than so with the CKs. The Fantasie Jana I got around the same time was certainly better but not by much.
