Mercy. How I loved this bra.

The moment I tried it on in a Marks & Spencer store that no longer exists, I knew I was in the presence of the bra gods. My shape was transformed; slimmer, neater, faster, stronger. And no more splayed underarm uniboob for these puppies! Oh no, my breasts were facing front with just a hint of point, like dainty hounds scenting distant yet oh-so-sweet prey. I bought two in white, one in black, and even had the foresight to buy one in a slightly larger size. But youth and vanity cannot compete with time...

Fast forward eight to ten years and I still ... squeeze myself into the black version of these beauties. Pity me, a thirty-something 32H cramming herself into a 34E in vain attempt to create the illusion of her glory days. I can deny the quad-boob no longer. This week I've self-prescribed an intervention.

Already two fresh-faced bras have failed at the first hurdle. Not enough side support. Who am I kidding? Not enough anything. I have worn no other bra in nearly a decade. It just doesn't feel right. I am bramogomous.

Here's my plea; if anyone knows of any bra that can match the engineered magnificence of the (somewhat degrained and ratty) corsetry in that embarrassing pic up there, I will gladly gift them my firstborn. Which technically does not exist but it's the thought that counts. Help me, bra-warriors. You're my boobs' only hope...

Gives lovely shape but band far too big and cups too small

Black colorway

I was super exited when finding this bra because of the basically non existing gore. It’s kinda like it has a monowire but it has 2 wires with a tiny amount of wire channels between them.
There are molded cups on the inside with a lace and rhinestones and some satin pleats on the outside.
The label is a bit weird as the uk and us size don’t match up.
I don’t think this bra would work for anyone with soft breasts due to how low the gore is but for anyone with no space between between the breasts this can be a miracle bra.

Feels pretty comfortable, but tends to gap at the top of the cups by the armpit side (molded cups tend to be stiff, and these are a bit too big on the inside upper edge for me). May be just a bit too far under the armpit, as well.

may be the same model as 001T) - I have a black one that looks identical except for the size and the model # on the tag. Both were made in China. I also have another black bra with a tag labeled "Hunkemoller" that appears to be identical in model, as well (also made in China).
