I’m just going to cut to the chase...

I love this bra! Love love love!

This is my third BM, and second 70F, although I swapped the other 70F with another user so I don’t have it anymore. So now I have this one and my 65FF BM Cabernet. Both are full lace styles with knitwear bands, and the construction is basically the same. Lower 2 part cup with firmer mesh under the lace and the upper cup is stretchy. Aesthetics are slightly different with the bows and gore details.

This bra has a beautiful bright blue lace with beige mesh lining - I’m getting a pretty good skin tone match with it. The blue is hard to capture because it changes with the lighting, becoming brighter in some lighting and more of a cornflower blue in others. My pictures show a range of colours due to different lighting. It’s just your standard bows for the gore and straps. I personally have no problem with the gore bow, but I do feel that they are a bit big on the straps and would like to remove them. I prefer the loop bows that the Cabernet has, or even the smaller ones that are on the Sekret.

I find the fit of this bra is actually better than my Cabernet. The band is perfect. It’s not too snug or too loose - it is very comfortable. Obviously a bit smaller than a tts 32, but good for me. I marked it 29” but it could possibly have gone a little more - I’m just slightly more conservative with the stretched band measurements. My snug under bust measurements are 28-28.5” but I am definitely more comfortable with bands that stretch 29-30”. The wire width of this one is just perfect for my average to narrow roots.

I’m not getting any wrinkles at the wires like I do with the Cabernet. Immediate projection is fantastic. I’m not sure if it’s a size thing or if the Cabernet was really just a little bit wider and shallower than most. I do technically measure a 70F with the Ewa website calculator, but I don’t think wearing 65FFs would be a significant difference in the fit.

The cups seem like they are a little bit more rounded than the Cabernet, and I think it’s maybe the lace - I think it’s maybe a touch thicker - because they both measured about the same depth. If this is how other 70Fs fit, I’m getting more, though I do want to try another 65FF to see if I have the same thing as I have with the Cabernet fit or if it’s closer to this one.

I’m really happy that I swapped one of my bras for this one. I’m really so in love with this bra. It’s become a favourite one.

  This bra is so beautiful on your pics! I think the Cabernet is not the best BM to start with, the fit may be misleading because the lace si very soft and makes the cups seem like they're too big. I think this size fits you great and if the band feels ok, you can settle for the 70f.

  Glad you found a BM that you like and that fits you great. It looks fantastic on you. I find that my La Gloria does that colour-changing trick too. So beautiful!

• Thanks for the information vesela_krava! I had wondered about it.

  Thanks for sending it Fuzzypants !

  Thanks again, everyone!

• I wore my Cabernet today and it is pretty but it doesn’t feel like this one. This one feels more supportive and better shape. I definitely think it’s the lace now.
