    Didn't fit

    I'm totally blanking on how long I have had this bra. It's older than my Freya Deco, but much more recent than my Freya Pollyanna. I'm going to say maybe 3-5 years? It's still in pretty good shape because I don't wear it that often. At this point, I mostly wear it when I wear a certain top that has really open and stretchy shoulders....it's kind of a bohemian top. It's this dusty rose colour that matches so well with the pinks in the print of this bra. It's the kind of bra with strap details you are ok with showing...you WANT a bit of strap to show. ... I included a pic of me in the top as I think it is a magical combination...bohemian style top and matching bohemian print (bra) strap. What does everyone else think?

    Compared with my Deco, it's not quite as boob armour as that one, but it's a heavier molded style compared to other bras (I think Cleo Koko was less stiff and my So Free Lightly Lined Balconette from La Senza is barely stiff at all by comparison).

    Now, my shape tends to be shortish narrow roots, pendulous soft tissue that is pretty malleable, even to FOB, and center full. I think I might be close set as well but I'm not sure. This is possibly why I'm spilling over a little near the gore of this bra. I say gore, but I mean "gore" because there practically isn't one on this bra. It's nearly nonexistent though there is a lovely velvety bow marking the tiny bit of fabric holding the cups together. Lol.

    The cup width of this one seems to be ok, though I have yet to measure it up yet. I'll get to that later. The band feels nice and firm and not overly stretchy. Reminds me of my Deco, actually, with the band. Same with the straps...not too stretchy. The straps are more like my Lepel Lilly but not as stretchy. The height under my arms is jusssst on the verge of being too high and cutting into my armpits, but doesn't.

    Being that I'm pendulous, I tend to need depth (but not Envy/Jasmine depth...that's too much, for some reason) and I have been told that this bra is too shallow for me by someone who knows more than I do. I'm not a bra expert by any means at this point, but I'm learning, however, I'm really not sure that it is too shallow. When I feel inside the cup, I can feel my tissue flush with the wire, and if I push the material (thick as it is) towards my skin, I'm not feeling empty space. I feel like my tissue is fitting the wire and the wire is at my imf. I do get a tiny bit of slipping down as the day goes by, but pretty much every bra I own does that, including my depth at the wire friendly CK Ellace. So, I don't personally think that it's too shallow. A teensy bit, maybe, but a lot? I don't think so. Maybe I'm missing something though.

    Cups, as I said above, spill a bit on the lower portion of the cups, more towards the center where the gore isn't there and I think that it's not a size issue, but a shape issue...that my center fullness has nothing to keep it in check. Nevertheless, it doesn't show under clothing, especially my special top as it's loose and flowy, and that's why I opted to lie to the fit and say that I don't have quadding, even though I sort of do. If I do a stronger swoop and scoop, I do have more quadding though (will go back and add pic). But this bra is a 32D, and I'm actually closer to 30E/F/FF or 32DD/E and equivalent sister sizes in a 28 band if it's really big and stretchy (now) so that is to be expected. AND like all of the older bras that I own, I never swooped and scooped when trying on before buying and was never told by the sales associate to do so even at the specialist boutique...I only leaned forward and jiggled into the cups (which is, admittedly, more than many people do).

    One of the things that I really love about this bra is the print. It caught my eye right away. I love the flower colours and the grey lace overlay. It's hard to see, but the background is a very dark grey, bordering on soft black. One of the benefits is that it looks great with grey panties, and grey panties are always available, and with the various colours in the print, it's easy to find solid coloured panties to coordinate in pink, orange, and blue if you want a pop of colour...I've got navy on today and it's a good match.

    As with all of the molded cup bras I own, I think that I get a nice round shape with this bra. It's not really an everyday bra for me, and the fit is not 100% on me, but it's still got a hook to get to before it is finished. It's a bit on the hot and heavy side, so aside from this shirt and maybe the odd tank, I don't wear it in hot weather as much.

    I don't really have anything bad to say about this bra, really. It's not perfect, but I like it, and it's been fine for me over the last few years.


    EDIT: After adding the stronger swoop and scoop pic, I've decided to go back and edit the fit to include the quadding so it will say that it doesn't fit. This is partly because, well, it is much more spillage, plus, I think that the fit is inaccurately affecting my reference size, as it is now 30:5 instead of 30:6 prior to this addition, and I'm definitely more of the latter, possibly even 30:7 in some bras.

    EDIT OF EDIT: Ok, so it still says 30:5. That's going to change once my 30FF Bardot comes in anyway. I might also add one of my older Fantasie bras which is 32DD and it might bump me up again.

    • Cute bra! And as for the reference size... sometimes it will temporarily change if you enter a bra, but you may notice it go back to your 'old' reference size. Try logging in and out, that may re-set it too?

    • Yeah Wilderness1, I am sure it will change with time and bras added. I think that if I add more larger cup bras back in, it will go up. So even though my Fantasie Rimini is over 10 years old, I might add it just to try to bump up the average.

    • what I mean though, is that sometimes it will temporarily change but revert back without adding any more bras. I deleted one the other day and it changed my reference size from 30:8 to 30:7, but by the next day it was back to 30:8 without any further changes made on my part.

      I see. Interesting. I've removed the two Freyas as I shipped them back on Thursday. :( I don't know if those were still in my list if it would have balanced the reference size more or not. I'm not going to worry about it though, because I know I don't have a lot of bras to average right now. I'll leave it for now, but I still might add my Rimini because it's such a beautiful bra and it is one of the first two bras I bought online and figured out I was a 32DD (initially had 32D but had to exchange for DD). So for posterity and nostalgia, I might add it. Thanks again!

      A. You can edit the reference size yourself in the profile.

      B. This bra print is absolutely gorgeous! Who cares if it's not a perfect fit when it's comfy and works great with a shirt you love!

    • Thanks cupandahalf ! How do I edit the reference size? Also, I did a remeasure recently but never got any calculations or recommendations or any confirmation of anything. It was odd. I’d have thought that I would at least be told that I’m still 30F/FF recommendation or something confirming if I was the same or not.
