This cup provides very good coverage. The cups are very large. 7" sides and 5 hook back give great support and helps spread the load. Shoulder pads help out with the 1" wide straps.

Apparently HerRoom now stock this in a 52N

Confortable, very good quality and support.
The 36 band sizes is little too large for me and the M cup little too small. Nothing is perfect!
However I must say that the Elila 1305 style bras is good for a lot of other reasons (strap, cushions, full cup…).Updated on May 25, 2011 Flag this

I noticed you can now buy this in N cup size. I'm going to try a 36N.
34N or 36N should be an improvement for you! -
Great! Thank you Tia!
And I see there is new color too. I love Lilac!
I think I will try the 34N. -
I have the 34N. It is a great bra. 5hook back gives great support and the range of colours is amazing
-
Thank you Elila for yours information. In fact I try the 34N 6 month ago. But it was too small for me.

Refer to my Elila 1515 44L
I do not think a cup N with a front closure is impossible to realize, I think it just would have sufficient demand to encourage manufacturers to produce and with a more advanced type of closure that simples hooks.
There are only a few years the Elila game stop at the cup L, hence my choice of this cup .
with the time my weight evolving cup L became a bit tight for me. and my couture reprise from my 'Elila 1515 50L' compared with my others 'Elila 1305 44L and 42N' .( I give the measurements here ).
Having said that besides the practical side of the front closure that can partially open !
also there is no relief visible in the back!
In conclusion, I have a dream :-) -

I have a small frame and large breasts, size 40I. This is my "everyday" bra that lifts, shapes and supports the weight of my breasts. This bra gives me such a beautiful shape. . The inner foam sling in the cups gives great shaping to the breasts. The straps are wide, padded and do not cut into into my shoulders. I purchased five additional bras of this style plus I also own three of the front hook style of this bra. I hand wash my bras and line dry therefore they last a long time. I would recommend this bra to any full busted woman.

I have 42N and 44L in 1305 and 1515 style.
I partage your perfect description concerning the comfort and the shape giving by this two modeles of bra.

This bra gives great support. In the N cup it has 5 rows (4 columns) of hooks at the back which means it is wide and helps take some of the weight of my hefty bust. The bra is available in 5 colours and has a nice shiny finish, The bra provides excellent coverage on my large boobs and small frame

Same as the other reviews. Except this bra has the original terrible straps. I rarely wear this bra since it forces me to have to try and keep my chest very high up and my chest still spills out the top. 52N is rated for 27.5 pounds and my chest is 35 pounds. That means the weight of my chest pulls the cups downward BUTTTTTT there is ZERO give in the straps or the material and it absolutely destroys your shoulders and back as it digs in. The built-in shoulder pads plus additional shoulder pads do make a difference but.. it is not a fun experience.

I will say this bra is so-so. It is extremely firm for a soft cup. I am talking about the construction and not breaking it in. I have had this bra for over a decade and it is "stiff". I mean there is no give in any of the material. The original straps have no give at all, they are a thick polyester cotton blend. The bottom of the bra does a poor job at hugging your body. I wear this around my stomach so for me it means the cups are overfilled and it provides the right amount of support that I need. Wearing this with the original straps is very uncomfortable. With nice (normal) elastic bra straps it transforms the bra and removes some of the stiffness of the design. There is a beautiful jacquard pattern all across the bra. It is visually very nice but the Kaylee (which looks bland) is a vastly superior bra. I would only recommend this to large chested women that have limited shopping options.

Although it has been over 10 years since I owned this bra, it is still readily available so I will share my thoughts on it. I stopped wearing these bras prior to joining BTB so cannot provide pics or measurements. Before discovering BTB and especially UK bras, my world revolved around Elila and Goddess. So so glad I discovered this place and the wealth of information here.
This mocha Elila 1305 bra, was one of about 5 that I wore of various colors from 2005 to 2012. It was a non wired soft cup with a foam insert inside the cup.
What I liked most about the bra was ... the padded color coordinated shoulder straps, something I wish all bras had. The comfort from the shoulder strap cushions was very helpful and they also kept the straps in place.
What I liked least was the lack of support I experienced. The sturdy materials, the stiff straps, shoulder pads and foam insert helped a lot but are not up to the task compared to a good quality underwire. I also dis-liked the rather matronly appearance of this bra.
When I first purchased this bra, it was available up to US K cup which is equivalent to UK H cup. It was definitely too small in the cup but Elila certainly surprised me when they made the jump to the US N cup, which is equivalent to a UK JJ. I just checked the Elila home page and they now offer the 1305 in a US O cup which would make it a UK K cup. I may try one for old times sake but I suspect that this non wired will still be uncomfortable to this day.

I have also an elila 50L but with front hooks 1515 style with for me the correct cup size but with diminution (8-10cm) of back band.
have you take one similar diminution or adaptation for the band of your 50N ?
