A stunning bra that I used to wear for its share beauty and despite of it being way too small. What a shame Fauve doesn't make anything in larger cup sizes!

This bra is pretty but does not have enough structure for my shape (projected, narrow, pendulous, center full) and consistency (extremely soft). The cups are on the large size but shallow and do nothing to provide shaping or support. I have no idea what shape this would work for but it is an utter fail for me.

As I am listing and measuring my bras, I've come to a conclusion that my breasts must have definitely grown in the last few years. I did not expect that, as I gained no weight. Unfortunately, this means that some of my favorite bras no longer fit (not even ill-fit) https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />.
This Fauve, like the others. is a beautiful bra. The band is a bit stretchy. Cannot really talk about the fit, as it never really fit me well (Fauve doesn't go above GG cup).

Good heavens, this is a beautiful bra. Elegant, detailed, expensive & looks it.
It was my first sheer bra, and my first G cup - EVER. I'd gambled on a couple different styles of Fauve 36FF's on eBay, so I knew they were gorgeous, but those were too big band/too small cup so I bumped down/up to this sister size. This G fits larger than the Panache Andorra 34GG, for reference. The band is pretty similar, although with much less dictatorial wires.
Pros: Looks (without clothes). Great fit/comfort. Adequate lift (not a va-va-voom at all, but picks the girls up). Great support.
Cons: ... Not so practical under some clothing - seams, lace, seams with lace, you get the picture. Also, I can't find the matching thongs https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
It is allegedly a plunge, but I don't find it plungey. I find it more "lightly" full coverage.

Final update: I lost weight (and the band may have stretched a little) so I'm sending it on to Synchrolover . It wore beautifully, although it lost a bead from the bow on the gore at some point. I'd love to have another in my current size.

I've got the Annalise bra by Fauve in 32G and the cups seem to become small so I decided to order the Dominique in 34G (it comes up to G only) and it is too big. I reordered it in smaller size because I find it absolutely stunning.

The band is HUGE. It doesn't appear to be worn out, but just big. Don't know if the line is prone to that or if it's a mismarked bra. I wear a 34 in Freya, a 32 or 34 in Curvy Kate if that helps. I took in 1.5" from each side by the corset lacing, and it now fits properly and doesn't pull up.

Otherwise, everything is spot on perfect. Cups are great, underwire is super comfortable. Despite all but dripping in lace, it's not itchy in the least. It's super attractive, DH strongly approves. I get a ... nicely rounded shape, good uplift, but everything is well covered and I'm not falling out. Half cups are my friends.

I don't have an opinion on the 2 vs 3 hook yet. It's 2 hooks, I prefer 3 or more. But it's comfortable with 2, it feels more solid than my Freya Deco or Erin, maybe not quite as good as my Curvy Kates. I can jump around, headbang and do my general fool act and not fall out.

It feels extremely well made, all the inside seams lay flat and comfortably, nothing feels sloppy or loose. The lace overlay is well attached, the decorations are attached well.

This is the same bra from all 3 reviews, which I'm easily amused by. My guess is I'd need a 30H/J range, so I'd be sized out also.

Received from the most wonderful fellow member katje. Alas, it doesn't fit. The Fuave half-cups are larger in the band and smaller in the cup than other styles as well as in comparison to other Eveden brands like Panache, Cleo, Fantasie, etc.
This one's fit is consistent with the Aurelia half-cup I have in 36F. I had hoped that sizing down in the band and up in the cup would work, but no. Assuming it's marked correctly, I would need a 32HH/30J, which means I'm sized out https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Having said that, I should confess that I insist on a much tighter ... than most women like because I'm fluffy and I simply can't tolerate movement of my bands.
The quality, however, is Fauve all the way - 1st class materials and detailing. Straps are fully adjustable and set fairly wide (typical balconette). Wings are somewhat lower in the half-cup styles than in their full-coverage ones - which is preferable to me since I'm short.
Cups are 3-part vertical-seamed construction with lace detailing. Bow & sparkly dangle at gore, bows at cup/strap junction, lace applique along top of cups over the mesh overlay on a base of bordeaux satin. Ribbon corset detailing over more lace on the wings. It's no wonder these things are so expensive.
It is very pretty (better in person than in pictures).

It feels nice and supportive. The only complaint I have is that since I have close-set breasts, it took some getting used to having the gore sit flatly there.
