This bra I had ordered from MagdaBras4you to try a half lace BM. This was one of the ones caught up in the "we are too busy to ship them right now" Ewa issue. I feel like because of that, this bra is rather poorly constructed. I will compare this to BM Fluo, which is my best fitting BM.

The band on Perla is 29.5" long, which is not the longest 60 band I've ever received from Ewa, but is too big to be wearable. I can get away with 29" sometimes on the tightest/second tightest hooks but the band will still ride up. For contrast, ... Fluo is 27" long. I've read that Fluo was considered tight by many, but I prefer having my bands shorter than average rather than longer.

The cup width on Perla is 6.5" wide vs Fluo's 6.125" wide. I prefer a 6" wide cup. At 6.5" wide, my tissue splays to the side and I can't fill the cups. In addition, the wires do not completely fill the channel. The wires in this one seem to be the Nike swoosh wires that are normally used in the SF cut. There is .5" of empty space at the top of the channel on each side.

The cup height on Perla is 10", Fluo is 9.375". 10" high seems to be the new standard for the 60K BMs I have received, and this is too tall for my sloping roots. I can fill the bottom but not the top, and I get no lift out of this bra when these super tall cups are combined with the wide wires.

The wings and gore are higher than Fluo. I think this would be a problem if I could actually wear the bra, but they did not bother me as I only tested it out for a few minutes.

I am done buying BMs for a while because I keep getting bras that will never fit me. It's gone from my best fitting bra to my worst, and I am sadder for it.
