The Bravissimo Dina is a true balconette style. The cups are made of a 3 part construction, the upper part of the cup is not stretchy in this size. There is a nice added fancy strappy detail on the cups. This bra comes up to UK L-Cup. I think it is awesome that Bravissimo tries to offer something a bit more special in their largest size range! The band does run true to size like usual Bravissimo bands. My underbust is currently aroun 31 Inch and this fits me just fine. I think that Bravissimo bras run generally 1-2 cup sizes smaller compared to other UK brands. I ... can wear a 32J in Elomi but size up to 32JJ in Bravissimo.

The shape is very good, centered and projected. I have to say that on bigger days there could be just slight quadboob between the cup Edge and the extra strap, especially if you have soft boobs… the strap is very stretchy though so it should not cut in much. It's barely visible. Just saying that this could be an issue in some cases. On smaller boob days I get slight gaping towards the shoulder straps because the bra is just quite tall (like all Bravissimo bras). I lost just a tiny bit of boob volume lately so the gaping became a bit more obvious. I'm not sure if I already need a size 32J in this now. The bra was a perfect fit 2 months ago though…it's still wearable now.

One Thing about the extra straps at the gore…if you like lower cut necklines they will show. I like the look, it's cute. But it only goes with black tops and Maybe Grey ones. Now in summertime I just find myself not reach for this bra so much. So for a bra like this I recommend getting a black colored one if you want to show it off.

update after 1 year 9months of owning this bra. I have worn it a lot and it is time to retire. It held up well being in heavy rotation for over 6 months and worn occasionally later. It just recently got a bit unsupportive. The wires stayed put.
I decided to retire this bra, I removed it's good wires to put in a weaker bra and will use the non wired Dina as a sleep bra now until it falls apart.
