I am currently in a Lejaby craze, as you can tell from my recent entries. This is a plunge cut of Lejaby's Elixir Melusine line that so far exists in tatto-white, violet-plum, frisson-blue and purple-brown. This cut has been advertised as full cup, 3/4 - plunge, halfcup, balconette, etc... depending on how the individual seller deems fit. Given the low gore I would definitely go for the "plunge" description. To avoid any misunderstandings and mixing it with its full coverage sister - the code is: G40931.
I have mixed emotions about this bra: it gives a better, rounder shape to my larger breast, but would ... like taller wings. It is a technical fit, I think, but I wouldn't say it's a perfect one visually. I am getting more of the armpit fat look than with some other bras. Comfort feel is very high, I love the band that is on the tighter side of TTS for a 30, that is a French 80, but flexible. Narrow wires, good depth and projection and I don't fall out in the middle, as it happens with some plunges. And hey, it's blue! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I might try a cup size up to see if I get a better fit.
No idea how - I lost one of the rosette strap decorations, so will need to get rid of the other one, too.
Update: I wore it for a full day and the fit improved on my smaller breast, there was less empty space at the top when I took the bra off this evening. However, the inside rim of the cup cut in slightly on my bigger breast, so I don't know if I can really call it a fit. It's almost like one cup is a little too big while the other a little too small. And the wings are definitely too short for my taste, hate the damn armpit-boob!

Best fitting, comfortable and supportive bra I found in years, not only this bra from the Melusine range but also the Elixir bras from other ranges! Elixir knows how to design the perfect fit for D+ cups, they use excellent technics to make the right structure. Or at least it does something good for MY shape. The depth of the cups is right for me and that's exactly always the problem with most other brands. Other brands make the underwires/cups wide and the cups not deep enough which means that I have a slight overspil at the top of the cup. Going 1 cupsize up doesn't work for me simply because the cups become too big at the bottom and the sides and it 'll give no support at all, not to mention it wears very uncomfortable on my ribcage. Also the wires of Elixir in this halfcup/plunge are positioned very well. I got a great cleavage in this plunge bra without the usual 'falling out' problems. And true to size.

I like this bra, it’s just a smidge away from being too small so I can’t wear it all month. Seams disappear well. I’d love to get this in a couple more of the colors. I can get a little quading near the gore if I’m more active but not a noticeable amount under a tee.

Very full cup in this line. Very pretty lace and the back is attractive as is the front. holds its shape well.
