Fits

I've wanted to try the Lepel Fiore for a long time, but it isn't easily available in the US and based on measurements it seems to run 1 cup size big with a tighter band. I originally tried this in a 30D and found that the cups were a bit too short and shallow, with the upper cup cutting into my roots, so I decided to reorder in 30DD although I felt the band was actually a bit loose.

I was surprised to see that the fabric is so soft, as some other UK brands are notorious for stiff lace (I'm looking at you, Freya!). The cups are made from very soft floral lace, although it looks quite delicate and seems like it might snag easily. The bottom cup is double lined with soft stretch tricot, and the upper cup has a small strip of clear elastic at the upper edge. The cradle and wings are made from very stretchy matte jersey. I love the little lace up detail that connects the cradle and wings. Straps are not very wide, and taper off to a leotard back.

Compared to the 30D, this fits me much better. Interestingly, there’s a big difference between the two sizes in terms of coverage. The 30D is like a demi cup bra, and the 30DD is like a full coverage bra. The wires are noticeably taller in this size. The larger cups enclose all my tissue and provide much more support. I originally thought that the 30D wasn’t supportive enough, but this was due to the cups being too small and too short. The elastic at the upper cup doesn’t cut into my roots anymore, although it does create a bit of a visible indent due to its tension. The cups are actually a smidge too large on me, and I see a bit of wrinkling on my smaller side. The taller cups do chafe a little bit under the arms, but since the material is so soft, it’s not too uncomfortable.

It’s still a nice bra, but I am kind of between sizes and would prefer a 28 band. Too bad this doesn’t come in 28E!

Band is a little loose but stays in place, cups fit better than 30D, though there is a bit of chafing under the arms due to the cup height.
