this bra is very beautiful, but it's not what you want to wear under closely fitted knits - the surface is very textured and will definitely show through. the satin fabric is beautiful and mimics peau de soie just as well as the Tiffany bra i reviewed.
However, the beauty on the outside is not matched on the inside. there are a disappointing number of raw edges on the inside of this bra. the wire channels have at least a centimeter of empty space in them - enough to be noticeable and troubling, particularly with how low the wings are already. since my boobs tend to be side heavy, I like a lot of side support on my bras.
it doesn't really fit - the band is fine, but I can't fill the cups, and that's exaggerated when I sit down in the bra.
This bra is quite stunning online and reads a bit differently in person though still very pretty. The band is quite firm with little stretch and the cups were too small for me, but oh my goodness the cleavage! Even without swooping and scooping the girls were high and perky in this bra! The wires are a bit narrow on me so coupled with the too small cups this bra is not currently a good fit on me. I'm tempted to order it in either a 34F or 34FF but I'm uncertain whether this would address the too narrow wire issue.
German only: gefällt mir nicht: -Das Band ist sehr elastisch und dehnbar --> hoher Nylonanteil -Die Bügel sind relativ breit, vermutlich hätte ich deshalb mit einem kleineren Band z.B. in 30FF probleme gehabt
For reference I'm currently in between a 32F and 32FF in Cleo.
I got this in a 34E since I read Masquerade runs tight in the band, and I also read this bra runs a cup size big. However, this bra runs true to size in the band, and about half a cup size big. The band is too loose for me even on the tightest hooks, and the cups fit well since I'm in between sizes.
The cups fit well, but the tops curl out a bit. That's just how the bra is molded, they curl out even if it's not being worn. For this reason you can just barely see the outline of the tops of the cups in a tight tank top. This was not noticeable while wearing a dress with a gathered top, however.
I'll be selling this as it's just too big in the band, even on the tightest hooks.
augh how i wanted this bra to fit! its very pretty, but just not right https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> i thought it was okay at first, but after trying to wear it out for a day i realized its pretty miserable. I bought this NWOT through /braswap.
The band rides a bit, even though on the tightest hook it feels snug enough. I think it may be a symptom of the cups being too small throwing the whole fit off. I quadboob fantastically and the tops of the cups gape near my underarms right at the top corner of the cups. The straps are slightly too ...wide for me- If i move my arms forward the straps seem to try and cut my arms off. The cup width feels like its pretty good, but that might mean that sizing up the one or two cups i need would make them too wide :'(.
I can add pictures later when i have my camera again- but trust me when i saythis bra is gorgeous. The roses are very vintagey in feel, and i love the little rosebud and bow at the gore. I wish this was the right fit, but it looks like im going to try and pass it on to a better home! Read more 108 more words
Only tried it on, haven't worn them out and about yet. The thing I noticed is that the straps are kinda attached to the cups too far apart, so the cups seem to be kinda loose and doesn't seem to be completely filled by me. They are visually very nice. I havent worn them long enough to comment on their comfort level. I might not wear this for heavy dancing, but it seem to be ok otherwise.
Nice bra, but it has got too short straps. I'm tall (178 cm), so it hurts me a lot. I think, my breasts is pointy in it, because of the seam on a cup. Great bra for bigger bust and small pretty woman https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
after several uses: This bra is really uncomfortable. Straps are digging in arms, the cups run bigger, the band runs stretchier. Also orange in glass effect. It is not great bra for anyone. (1/16/2012)
