    This fits very similarly to the white version, as expected. They had different names On the website (strawberry milkshake vs blackberry) But they both say “mamma” on the tag so I THINK they’re supposed to be just different color-ways of the same bra.

    This one does however fit MUCH tighter in the band than the white version. I need to wear an extender with this one in the same size Inorder to wear comfortably- my fit evaluation is based on use WITH an extender.

    This bra is super comfortable. I believe I mentioned in my other review that I am projected/close set/even leaning FOB after nursing and ... my current bra favs are Cleo Marcie in 36J/JJ and panache jasmine in 36JJ/34K. The conversion put me at 80N and I’d say that’s mostly accurate? I need a bit more projection but I think going up a cup size would leave me with empty space up top.

    Like the white version, this bra has a 3 part cup, feels very supportive, and the inner fabric is so soft. The embroidery is beautiful and it REALLY doesn’t scream “nursing bra” which I love. It doesn’t tack fully (though I THINK the gap is less than the white version) and I have some wrinkling at the bottom of the cup (like I said I’m pretty projected) but no quad boob at the top and no significant wrinkling other than the corner near the strap/armpit- the fit still feels amazing and I am definitely Keeping.

    EDIT: I wore this for like a day or 2 with an extender and it seemed to stretch out enough from getting broken in that I don’t actually need it. YMMV 🤷🏻‍♀️

    LOVE LOVE LOVE. This bra is -almost- perfect. It’s beautiful, it’s supportive, it gives my boobs some serious love. The band is TIGHT (80N) I need an extender, no big deal. I also have center/lower cup wrinkling because I need more projection at the wire, ( e tu Nessa?!) but what else is new. The lace is a smidge loose up top but nothing worth writing home about.

    For reference: 36J/JJ 34JJ/K panache wearer current best fits from marcie and jasmine. Close set/projected/even fullness leaning FOB after nursing and pregnancy

    This is the best nursing bra I have ever tried. Compared to the other Nessa bras I got in this order, I’d say the band is stretchier. I am able to fully clasp on outermost row Comfortably without an extender. Inner lining is soft and comfortable, straps are a good width.

    I am very projected, close set, even-ish fullness but probably leaning FOB functionally after nursing.

    Gore not tacking and slight bottom wrinkling indicate I probably need a bit more projection BUT from my assessment it’s minor and does not affect comfort. Top sits nicely on tissue, with a small, barely noticeable gap near armpit.

    Lately, I Usually wear Cleo Marcie (36JJ) or panache jasmine (36JJ/34k with extender)- this one gets a bit stabby under the arm though sometimes. This bra feels narrower under the arm than both and even though the gore doesn’t tack, I’d say it seems lower also.

    Definitely a keeper. It feels very supportive and close enough to a perfect fit to keep me happy
