This bra is a very fun summer color, it is trendy peach, but reminds me a bit of orange sherbert. The bra has very pretty touches with lace, including floral lace half way up the straps. This bra didn't fit me quite right, which wasn't a total surprise, I assumed it would be one cup size too big. Thanks again to MamaPagan for sending it to me to try. It is awesome to try new brands and sizes to narrow down what works, and add in all the info for the database. I am close set, full on bottom, and I need a good amount of ...immediate projection. This bra has a fairly supportive feeling band. It has enough immediate projection for me. The problems I had, however, were ones that don't leave me in a rush to try this one cup size down. The sides of the cups went waaaay in to my armpits, and were very uncomfortable. I both don't quite fill the tops of the cups, yet I also get cutting in from the top of the cup. The bra also doesn't provide the level of shaping and support that Comexim does. Read more 93 more words
I've reviewed in greater detail on my blog, but I love this bra and would strongly recommend this bra, IF you fit into it. Each cup in KL is 2cm rather than 1 inch, and KL use an I cup between HH and J. So using the UK cup progression this is a 30K, but due to the 2cm cup jumps and the very loose band, I think it fits more like a tight-banded UK 32GG/H. Based on measurements and shape, I would say this is very much like a Bravissimo Alana, but with slightly narrower wires. It is unbelievably comfortable and beautiful, but it isn't one for J+ women.
Still not quite right. Straps are too wide, I think I need a 28 band but I don't believe they come that small, and the cups fit on the bottom but are a tiny bit big on top. Then you look to the side and oh boy, I don't even know what's going on. It like they're just floating, it's just not a look I'm going for. I got it on eBay so I don't plan on trying to send it back. I thought I was on the right track with Kris line but maybe just not this one.
queeniebrooke at least you tried KL. Have you ever tried ordering directly from Comexim? I see you have wellfitting, but I can't justify paying that much for just the bra (I'm a set kinda girl). I don't know if you comfortable with it but I think it could help since you can pretty much request anything.
Kris Line is quite a different shape...some call it "torpedo" as everything is pushed forward. I get a similar shape as well. Either you like it or don't. It suits certain clothes well but if you prefer more rounded this style won't do it.
MissAponii Custom ordering from comexim might be my next step. I think they tend to be less expensive than the wellfitting line.
roxannelovesbras I have a padded Kris line that isn't as torpedo like, I'm bummed it's not a goof fit.
queeniebrooke yes by a long shot, the trade off is time. I believe they have advanced their English understanding, but I always submit it in full polish and English using Google translate. I always reverse translate the polish to make sure it conveys the right message.
I've tried the brilliant and got a weird fit too. Same with the semi-soft models. I'm not sure what shape you are but I'm even to slightly FOT and got a much better fit with the Fortuna and Stella soft.

Princessa was my first Kris Line bra, along with Diamond in 30K. I ordered them both from the same seller on eBay, as they were cheaper and I really wanted to try the brand without breaking the bank without knowing my size. This one was listed as used worn twice, so I figured it was a safe gamble.
The Princessa is a semi padded bra in coral. The bottom half of the cups are padded with a light foam lining and covered in patterned ...linework instead of flowers or lace. The top is sheer lace with a flower pattern, all in the coral color as well. It is quite pretty.
The band measures 25.5” with a max stretch to 33” with 3 hooks and the standard Kris Line 4 rows of eyes which is nice.
Cup depth was 12.5” as measured by hovering the cup between the knees and placing the tape measure into the cup without any resistance, to a max of 14.5” stretched over the knee.

The Brilliant style from Kris Line simply doesn't work with my breast shape. The profile is very pointed, breast tissue pokes from the top of the cup, and I just feel very awkwardly "squeezed in". The side sling (nursing support) even cut into my breast tissue and made a visible dent from the side view. At the time I ordered this, it was the best fitting nursing bra I had found, so I kept it and wore it for a couple of weeks. Then I ordered a different style KL bra from Zulily (the Fortuna), which fit much better. So I never wore this again!
Love the look of the bra: it's like a bridal one, with a bit of shine on the embroidery. Yet, KrisLine sizing is something I can't get yet. This one is 65JJ and not so closed on top, yet I have quadboobing with my even 30HH, and the band feels more like 32: I can easily fasten it on the tightest set of hooks. Also, for my touching on top breasts the gore is too high, so it botheres my boobs a bit, and the cups are too tall, so I have a bit of free space under the strap with some bothering of my underarms
This bra is so pretty! Unfortunately it's way too small. While its labeled a JJ it is NOT the same as a UK JJ cup. It's measurements match more with a UK 30H or a very firm 32GG. Very well made with sturdy construction. The wires are nice and narrow and the cups are deep.
To be perfectly honest, I found this bra in the back of a drawer, and hadn't worn it in years, but I'll try and comment on it to the best of my memory.
The wires had come out, so I didn't include cup width in my measurements, as I wouldn't consider that to be fair. I was fitted into this when I was at my highest weight, but I really think that the 65 band was still a little too big then. The wires are quite narrow, and the cups are fairly deep. I suspect the wires came out of the bra because it wasn't quite the correct size, ...but I wasn't as game as I am now at calling staff out on bra fit which isn't correct.
In this size range, the bra has a 3 piece construction, with additional vertical boning in the wing. The straps are fully adjustable and fairly sturdy. An unusual, and rather nice feature, is the fact that the wire channels overlap slightly at the top, creating a narrower gore, which is good for close-set breasts. There are four columns of three rows of hooks, making a reasonably thick band.
The band hasn't stretched out that much from wear, though I was never really stretching the bra out that much. The powermesh has stayed intact, without any pulls and runs which you can sometimes get after owning a bra for a while.
I think this would be a really nice narrow, deep bra for someone who was the correct size (and liked black bras). Read more 149 more words
