I’m just going to cut to the chase...
I love this bra! Love love love!
This is my third BM, and second 70F, although I swapped the other 70F with another user so I don’t have it anymore. So now I have this one and my 65FF BM Cabernet. Both are full lace styles with knitwear bands, and the construction is basically the same. Lower 2 part cup with firmer mesh under the lace and the upper cup is stretchy. Aesthetics are slightly different with the bows and gore details.
This bra has a beautiful bright blue lace with beige mesh lining - I’m getting a pretty good skin tone ... match with it. The blue is hard to capture because it changes with the lighting, becoming brighter in some lighting and more of a cornflower blue in others. My pictures show a range of colours due to different lighting. It’s just your standard bows for the gore and straps. I personally have no problem with the gore bow, but I do feel that they are a bit big on the straps and would like to remove them. I prefer the loop bows that the Cabernet has, or even the smaller ones that are on the Sekret.
I find the fit of this bra is actually better than my Cabernet. The band is perfect. It’s not too snug or too loose - it is very comfortable. Obviously a bit smaller than a tts 32, but good for me. I marked it 29” but it could possibly have gone a little more - I’m just slightly more conservative with the stretched band measurements. My snug under bust measurements are 28-28.5” but I am definitely more comfortable with bands that stretch 29-30”. The wire width of this one is just perfect for my average to narrow roots.
I’m not getting any wrinkles at the wires like I do with the Cabernet. Immediate projection is fantastic. I’m not sure if it’s a size thing or if the Cabernet was really just a little bit wider and shallower than most. I do technically measure a 70F with the Ewa website calculator, but I don’t think wearing 65FFs would be a significant difference in the fit.
The cups seem like they are a little bit more rounded than the Cabernet, and I think it’s maybe the lace - I think it’s maybe a touch thicker - because they both measured about the same depth. If this is how other 70Fs fit, I’m getting more, though I do want to try another 65FF to see if I have the same thing as I have with the Cabernet fit or if it’s closer to this one.
I’m really happy that I swapped one of my bras for this one. I’m really so in love with this bra. It’s become a favourite one.
