    65G

    Didn't fit

    It seems like this brand runs a little shallow in the center gore area for me. It cuts in and quads. The band feels comfortable, though!

    65G

    Didn't fit

    Ahhh. I just love the feel of Melissa cotton bras even though I have yet to find my size. The too-large cups on this model still feel good, the cozysoft unlined cotton fabric conforming to my natural shape. These are great casual, everyday bras.

    Cups: I usually wear a 30F/FF but I thought I would have to size up the cups from my UK size because Melissa, like many EU brands, doesn't have any double-letter sizes, so I started with 65H. Big mistake. I sized down to this 65G, and it is still quite a bit too wide for me. I'll actually have to try a 65F! That ... being said, I'm trying this a week into my cycle, and in about two weeks I'll have swelled up a cup size and will probably fit into this better. A soft and undemanding bra will be good at that time, too.

    Unlike a lot of Polish brands, Melissa doesn't seem to trend toward narrow cups, which is a shame, because you really can't go too narrow with me. The gore is quite high, which is the only part that is at all uncomfortable for me on the 65G. Sizing down could help with that, too. I just hope I don't lose too much depth.

    Band: The Melissa 342 (the linen one) had a very firm band, so I was ready to feel the need to expand these with extenders. But the band is actually OK without an extender. The cotton is stretchier than the cotton/linen blend.

    Materials: 95% cotton, 5% polyester

    T-shirt friendly: Yes. Smooth without unnecessary embellishments. It's unlined, though, so headlights could be an issue.

    UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER: I'm not sure if my boobs have grown or my bra has shrank, but the cups seem perfectly right-sized now. The gore floats a tiny bit, but that's sort of a blessing since otherwise it would be too high.

    • Hey there
      would be so kind and enter the measurements? this is a very close sister size to mine (70F) and I would be very happy to compare your bra to my other fitting bras. I want a Melissa bra in my life <3

    • I have already entered the measurements.
