    80G

    Hasn't set fit

    This bra is a beige/French vanilla color with black lace. It has one of Dalia's looser bands; I would have been better off with my usual 75 in this model. It is semi-soft, with light padding in the bottom of the cup and sheer fabric above it. The straps are thick. This bra, unlike most from Dalia, does lie flat in the gore, and it probably gives me the best lift of the three I bought recently (this, Cristina and Eleonor).

    80G

    Hasn't set fit

    The bra is a coral color, which did not come through in the photographs. It is semi-padded: there is light padding at the bottom of the cup and the top is sheer. This is one of Dalia's tighter bands; I typically wear a 75 but find this comfortable on the loosest hook. The straps are comfortably wide. As with most Dalia bras, the gore doesn't sit completely flat for me because the gore is a little too wide, but this doesn't appear to affect fit.

    80G

    Hasn't set fit

    The band of this bra is looser than some Dalia bras, so it fits as a true 80. The cup size seems fairly accurate.

    The bra has an optional racerback hook.

    The straps of the bra are very long. I could not shorten them sufficiently, even using the racerback. Therefore it was impossible for me to get a good bounce test; they were at least 3 cm too long for me. However, I am short, so they might work for someone else.

    80G

    Fits

    This refers to the beige colourway.

    I purchased this bra at the Brafitteria in Kraków. I haven't had a chance to wear it yet so I may be changing my review and fit information after a bit.

    The lace pattern reminds me of Bravissimo's Roccocco Charm, except that it is not done in contrast. I got the beige bra although the lilac version looked nicer; the lilac one seemed to be about half a cup size smaller and didn't fit my larger breast.

    The other two Dalia bras I tried on had a problem with the piece of boning in the wing buckling. I think it may ... have been a manufacturing fault because this one and the lilac one were fine, but just in case this is common with other models I thought I'd mention it here.

    Update 2014-02: This bra is a comfortable staple in my wardrobe, and I decided to order another bra of exactly the same type. It doesn't give me super intense projection, but it's a great everyday bra. I have started using it on the second set of hooks after 6 months of using it once a week.

    85I

    Didn't fit

    This refers to the beige colourway.

    I got this bra to replace my faithful 80G Olimpia which I have been wearing on the innermost hook for some time. I found that the band stretched to that point quite quickly, after about half a year of once-a-week use and hand-washing (something I also found to be the case with my black Dalia Olimpia in 80H, which I'm using on the middle hook already) , so I wanted to order a 75H to get more use from it. However, the shop was out so I got a 70I instead. I do need to use it with an extender but hopefully not for long. The wires don't seem to be a problem for me in the sister size so I will be keeping this bra and hopefully enjoying it as part of my regular rotation.

    • Hi there! Long-time lurker, started the account becvause of going Polish. Yay to their size range, design and price point and opportunities for immediate projection - I need stiff boob shelves to lift my pendulous mammaries. But NOT the narrow wires! I fit standard UK/US wires just fine. @Gorsenia worked, but it is purportedly the widest Polish brand.
      Another reviewer mentioned dalia had super narrow wires. Did you find that to be the case? How does cup width/wire width compare when you go up a band size?
      Thanks in advance!

    • Hey, BustOnACusp. I am narrow-rooted, and these days I stick pretty much exclusively with Ewa Michalak and Dalia because the wire width works for me. If you don't need narrow wires, Polish bras are probably not best for you.

      With Dalia it is hard to answer your question about grading because Dalia can be rather inconsistent. This is probably because it is one of the cheaper brands. You can try using the compare feature, but I've found variation even within the same model.

      I also require stiff wires. I suggest avoiding Freya and Ewa Bien. When I was still trying to make UK bras work for me, I found that Panache worked best for me. A lot of their models have good immediate projection (e.g., Jasmine).

    75I

    Didn't fit

    This bra seems fairly comfortable although the gore is a bit too wide for me and I may need to sew it a bit. The cups are a good width for me and so I plan to keep it despite the gore.

    There's also some variability with size between different bras. This (75I) was a spot on, while the Grace (75I) was a tiny bit too large, the Lara (75H) was a little too small, and the Olimpia (75I) was far too big for me.

    Dalia bras are loose in the band by Polish standards, and I found the 75 quite comfortable; I usually wear a 34 but often go to a 36 with brands like Panache.

    The British sizing on the label is complete rubbish, of course. It's effectively a 34GG, not the imaginary 34I on the label.

    The straps are half adjustable.

    75I

    Didn't fit

    I have a Dalia Olimpia in 80G which I'm happy with, but which is a little bit too small in the cups. The band also stretched out quickly and was already a bit loose to begin with, so going down a band size and up a cup size seemed like a good idea. However, the cups on this bra are a full cup size too large for me.

    There's some variability with size between different Dalia bras. This (75I) was one size too big, while the Grace (75I) was a tiny bit too large, the Audrey (75I) was spot on, and the Lara (75H) was a smidgen too small.

    Dalia bras are loose in the band by Polish standards, and I found the 75 quite comfortable; I usually wear a 34 but often go to a 36 with brands like Panache.

    The British sizing on the label is complete rubbish, of course. This particular bra is effectively a 34H, although the other Dalia bras I've tried in this size are 34GGs.

    The straps are half adjustable.

    75H

    Didn't fit

    Of all the bra in my recent order, this is my favourite. It's a little bit too small, but I'd say the sizing is similar to the Olimpia; a 75I would have been too large for me.

    The straps have some nice detailing which helps keep the adjuster from sliding. They are only half adjustable, however.

    80H

    Fits

    This refers to the black colorway. I bought this after 6 months of enjoying the beige colorway. I went one size up because I was starting to spill out of the beige. The fit is quite similar aside from being a little bit larger in the cup.

    75I

    Didn't fit

    It stretched a little in 2 years and textile is not so supportive as it used to be in the beginning. Good construction and very comfortable.

      Hi seqik
      I've just discovered the Dalia's K27 5 part tulip cup bra construction but e-mailing dalia about US shipping got no response, Dalia never shows up on eBay, and twoja bielizna doesn't seem to ever stock my size (95E).

      I NEED HELP!
      I"d like to try ordering by phone but do not speak Polish. Would you be open to helping me order this bra in exchange for fair compensation?

      I would really appreciate it and would welcome any advice!

      Best regards,
