  1. Rive Gauche 3 Part Cup (3281)

    75H

    Didn't fit

    This is a bra that I both loved and hated when it fit properly (I've lost weight). THere are many great things about it - nice separation, the center gore fit flat against my chest, the band was wide enough to be comfortable, and the pattern of the lace both pretty but not so noticeable that I couldn't wear it under a T-shirt. But the underwire comes up quite far underneath the armpit. I had days when I could wear it for 12 hour stretches, and days when I had to change at lunch into a different bra because I couldn't bear the jabbing any longer.

    Because the underwires do come up high, expect a bit of antiperspirant staining.

    (Purchased via Bratabase used.)

    It's like the gods are singing. I've lost enough weight/inches that this fits me almost perfectly now. Chantelle will likely become my go-to brand from now on, since I know I fit in their range and the likely sizes I will fit into.

    I do have my standard issues of the cups being slightly too tall for me, but the magic of stretch lace makes it okay.

    FYI: I know this is supposed to be equivalent to a 34FF in UK sizing, but I think that's false. It's way closer to a 34G or 34GG, in my opinion.

    ~~~~~~~
    No longer fits me as I've shrunk. I will find this bra in my new size as soon as possible.

    Hasn't set fit

    I found this in a thrift store and will remove elastic straps and J-hook for my own sports bra project. Not sure if I'm allowed to list the remains of the bra as a give away but any busty lady can contact me if you need this as a project. Maybe you already own one in a similar size and need parts for repair?

    General info. Looks a lot like the panache sports bra but has an adjustable racerback option. Cups feels softer and have horisontal stretch. Band feels slightly tight, but OK, for a size 75/34. Padded strap 2,3 cm and elastic strap 1,8 cm.

    Thought 32 might be too tight so I ordered a 34H. I need a 32, maybe I (US). Can't fill out the bottom of the cup and the straps are a bit too wide, but not as wide set as my Fantasie that keeps slipping off my shoulders. We'll see once I start wearing it. The underwires poke into my armpit, but again not as bad as the other one.

    Do I sound like I'm settling? I am. I will keep this one because it fits better than most of the others I have. Even though I don't fill out the bottom (despite scooping and pulling up the ... band and all sorts of other tricks), I think the bra gives me a nice shape. And I have been wearing a reasonably correct size for about a year (and not consistently), so I probably still have some remigrating going on. The bra seems well made.

    Update: Dec 2012. Armored breastplate. Wires poke into my armpits. Finally bent them slightly and they feel much better. Feel like they drag my breasts down a little--perhaps because the band is too big.

    Great lift and side support for someone with pendulous breasts and who is in need of torso definition due height and body shape issues. Separates the breasts but does not push the breast tissue to the side, as I have found some bras do (e.g. Elomi). Instead the side sling construction brings the breasts forward, but without creating too pointed a breast. This is great is you are like me and have lost your torso definition due to multiple pregnanancies and weight gain. My one criticism is that the underwire pokes into my underarm as I am short (5'/152cm).

    Fits

    I’ve had this bra for ages... 4 years, maybe? I honestly don’t even remember. So my measurements for it may be above the average for this size, but the band has always been very stretchy. You will probably want to size down in the band and up in the cup. (I believe when I bought this one, I ended up buying my normal size but wasn’t wearing it on the loosest hook.)

    This style is more narrow in the wire than my Chantelle Parisian Allure Lace Plunge Bra (2231) so it’s a good choice if you have a more narrow breast root. It follows my shape better ... behind the breast and doesn’t sit back too far under the arm. The gore is a little wider than what I need, but it’s not uncomfortable. It touches breast tissue, but it tacks, too.

    This is a pretty bra that lasts for a long time, and it creates a natural, rounded shape. The lace is smooth under most clothing. The top part of the cup has a little stretch, which is great if you have soft tissue, breasts that fluctuate in size, or one breast that is larger than the other.

    I can currently wear the 75H on the tightest hook or my old 70H on the medium hook, although I think a 70I would actually be perfect for me right now, except that I don’t think this bra is available in 70I.

    75H

    This is a good option for racerback tops because it has a J-Hook on the back.

    The cups are a little too wide for me (the wire is farther back on my side than I need it); however, they’re comfortable. Same thing with the gore — one wire is technically on breast tissue and not flat on the sternum, but the middle of the gore is flat, and the gore as a whole is comfortable. (I added pictures of the side and the gore.) I’m not getting as much forward projection as I get from some other styles, and it’s not a perfect fit, but it works well ... for dresses or tops where regular straps would be visible, or if I want a little less bust out front.

    The fabric is lightweight, especially the top section of the cup. It’s really pretty and feels decent in hot weather. The top part has a little stretch. The lace is more smooth/less visible under a top than the Chantelle Rive Gauche 3 Part Cup (3281), and the band here runs true to size (whereas I’ve sized down in the Rive Gauche).

    Overall this is a nice bra. Just be aware that it won’t be 100% correct if you’re close-set/narrow, but you’ll probably be comfortable anyway.

    The fabric is fairly soft, not stiff or scratchy in any way. It doesn’t have a ton of stretch, it feels similar in firmness of the band to the Panache Envy.

    Good: beautiful and well made like most of Chantelle; wide, comfortable and fully adjustable straps; lightweight and comfortable; wires not too rigid. Interesting back construction, with extra layer connecting to the straps.
    Not so good: everything else I look for in Chantelle, which I usually like for narrow wires and good immediate projection. In this case, I get some wrinkling at the bottom and side of the cup, and the wire feels too wide - without the cup being too large. Also, the lack of immediate projection gives a less rounded shape than I like.
    And of course, expensive, just like all of Chantelle.

    The issue with the cup/wires would not really impact wearability for me, but I do not like the shape. Back it goes.

    Good: this bra has almost everything I like and need. Light material with moderate stretch, cups neither too wide nor too tall, comfortable straps, natural rounded shape.
    Not so good: price. Lace (but it's geometric, so a bit more to my taste).
    Very similar in fit, comfort and shape to the Chantelle Saint Michel Back Smoothing (2721) (which is the one I'll keep because it was half price).

    I tried a 75(FR)/ 34 FF (UK). My snug band measurement is 33" so I'm planning on trying 32" for most bras with an extender. It's one cup size too small. The underwire feels pretty tight and uncomfortable. But, the bra looks good and gives good support.

    I couldn't get the center gore to lie flat, and the cups were way too small for me ... other than that, I can't really comment.

    Really pretty bra - and much more sheer than I was expecting.

    Initially, seems to fit okay, but the cups are just too tall. The lace is not stretch, so I get no help from it. The straps also seem a little more wideset than other Chantelles I have tried in this size.

    I'll have to wash it a couple times and try it for longer than 10 minutes to decide for sure. I did buy it used so the wires have some... issues. I'll try to mess with them a little to make them fit me better.

    ~~~

    It's one of those bras I wish fit me, but really doesn't. Cups are too tall. Apex too high. The bottom half of the cup works, but that's about it. I wear it sometimes, but I'll probably just end up listing it.

    The bra provides some support, but perhaps I need more support. Also be boobs are pretty much pushed together. My sister claims the bra cup is too small. However, I also see some wirnkling at the tops.

    it's the closest to perfect bra I own. It's not good for any low and wide necklines, but for anything else it's pretty good. The lace is visible under thin shirts. It shapes the sides nicely and makes me look thinner than the bras that flatten and widen.

    After a long day the wire under my arm pokes in and hurts, but it's the only area with a problem. It doesn't hurt the ribcage under the breasts. Seems more flattering than other Chantelle bras.

    Gives good lifting support, with a soft round shape. Cups sit close together, would not recommend for wide set breasts. Despite the lace designs, it sits well under t-shirts.
