I’m going to Pilates and I would like something a bit better than the aerie longline bralette I have. It’s stretchy and comfortable but pretty lacklustre for support, and while Pilates is pretty light impact, I think I can do better.

I usually wear a 30F/FF depending on the brand (more the 30FF these days). My snug under bust is 28-29” (varies sometimes with inflammation), my standing over bust is 37-38”, and my leaning is 39-40”. I have soft tissue which is problematic as you will see with some of the other bras I will be posting about.

I had been trying mostly size 6 and 8 and ... finding the 6s too hard to put on and smashing my breasts and showing a fair bit of side boob and spilling out the top. The 8 was better. I decided to try this in an 8
based on the fit of the Free To Be Serene but they didn’t have it. I should have asked for the 6 as well, though I am skeptical about it working.

This one was ok with the coverage and the cups but the longline portion felt loose and I could feel my boobs trying to fold over on themselves at the imf and it felt like they wanted to slip down out of the bra. They wouldn’t, but a snugger band would’ve been better.

For the price, it’s the cheapest of all of the potential winners but I am not sold on this size. I definitely want to try this in a smaller size. It possibly not the best fit but I do think it’s a possibility for starters due to the lower cost. I do want to invest in something good, but this is $56-ish CAD iirc, and the other potential ones are $20 more. I also like the strappy details on the back and it doesn’t seem quite as intense as some of the others that I tried.
