This bra is quickly becoming my go-to bra. It goes well under even my clingy shirts. It gives a respectable amount of cleavage while providing good coverage. Even though i could use a larger cup size and perhaps a smaller band, I still feel supported and secure. The thick vertical seam underneath the armpit provides some extra stability/support in the band but I find it can be a little uncomfortable.
I had already reviewed the 30FF Donna. I have had some changes in my sizing, and found I was getting a bit of quadboob with the 30FF. The 30G is possibly just a hair big, but not enough to get excited about. It's better than the quadboob that I now get with the 30FF. I purchased the 30G in white. This is the only all white bra I own at this time, which seems almost strange to me, ha! It's a great bra that gives great lift. It's not perfect under thinner shirts as the detailing is bumpy with a thinner t-shirt, but it's great under heavier or patterned tops.
I've really had to think about how to review this bra. It's so pretty. I've tried this in 30FF as well, so you can check out my review on that one as well for more of the detail information. This is the only Parfait by Affinitas bra I can say I don't care for. The center gore does not sit flat. I don't know that even if it was offered in a GG cup it would fit right. Adjusting the straps messes with the fit of the entire bra. On every other Parfait bra I own, the straps connect to the ...band at the back with a ring. This one the strap is directly connected to the band, so any adjustment changes where the lace in the front sits, and where the band sits, so in my opinion, if you can't wear it with no adjustments, it won't work at all. I'll be keeping it for now, but I don't think I'll wear it much at all. I'll keep it around for a boudoir bra when I want to go for a bit of manipulation https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> Read more 93 more words
I've tried this in the 30FF and now the 30G. I like this bra, definitely love the color and detailing. It's comfortable, and like pretty much all my Parfait bras, fits quite well with a great look. The only complaint I have with this one is that in order for the cup to fit my smaller side, I have to adjust the strap a bit and it causes the side of the cup to rise up a bit too high and irritate a little. I just need to find a happy medium I think. The embroidery across the top of the cup keeps it from being a great t-shirt bra, but it's not bad under shirts that are more loose. Overall, another great bra from Parfait by Affinitas.
Parfait is known for having tight bands, and while this definitely is one of the tightest 30's I've tried, it wasn't *too* tight.
The cups aren't big enough for me, cutting into the tissue they create the quad-look, while at the same time the bottom of the cups don't quite get filled. The side of the cup ends up sitting uncomfortably close to/in my armpit; the underwire isn't too high, it's actually the side of the cup near where the strap attaches. The cups in general seemed like they were set a bit too wide for my build, this could be why I had issues in the armpit area.
It's definitely a nice bra, and would be great for t-shirts if it fit right. I really appreciate the reasonable price Parfait has set on their bras. Unfortunately, this bra simply does not fit and as such will be returned.
Comfortable bra, and it *almost* fits, except for a small quirk with the cups. It fits my larger side great, but the lace at the top of the cup cuts into my smaller side, giving it the double look. Strange, as normally this would happen with my larger side, not with the smaller side! Maybe the particular bra I got has uneven cups, that's all I can think of as I have never experienced this particular issue before.
The bra gives a wider profile from the front than what I like to see, possibly because of the slight plunge style, which pushes my breasts to the sides. I'm not ...sure if this is supposed to be a plunge or not, but it looked slightly plunge on me.
I also noticed the underwire on this bra is a bit "creaky", as in it makes some creaking noises occasionally with movement. I actually think this might be the fabric rubbing on the wire, and not the wire itself. The slight noise might go away after while, I'm not sure. It's not extreme, and this issue alone wouldn't be enough to stop me from keeping it, but I wanted to mention it for those interested in the bra.
This brand is known for having tight bands and small cups, but I found that the 30G (my normal Panache size) in this particular style fit well, aside from the strange cup issue mentioned above. Unfortunately, I am returning the bra due to the cup issue, and too much east/west action for my taste. Read more 150 more words
Another one that I'd love to have, but doesn't really fit. I'll keep it anyway because it is cute and will work under most clothes. It runs tight in the band like most of this brand, but not as tight as a few other styles. It has a similar style to many others, a three part cup. The seems are pretty light and do not show as much. I like the pattern on the cup, but it does show through some clothes.
This is not what I'd call a daily wear bra. It is definitely for a night in. The bottom half of the bra is lightly padded with the top being lace. The front of the straps are two narrow straps that join to one thicker back strap. In the center front there is a little hanging crystal ball. It's a gorgeous dark jewel toned blue.
The band is the normal tight band, more like a 28 then a 30. The cup is too small for me, the center gore pulls out. Because it is a half cup style, there is definitely a chance for nipple slips. Because of that I cannot wear this bra out.
This is a nice smooth cup bra, nothing added but a small heart detail in the center. It makes me think of the Deco, which unfortunately I do not own (I'm sized out). This is a 30 that runs more like a 28, definitely normal in Parfait By Affinitas bras. The band is slightly too large for me, cups too small. This would be great for a T-shirt bra, so even though it is too small it may find a place in my collection. Again, I wish they would take their bras up past the G range.
This bra is a great simple smooth cup bra with molded cups. It has some nice detail lace on the sides and bottoms of the cups. The band is larger than normal for Parfait by Affinitas bras which usually run tight. I'd say that this runs like a normal 30 band would. The band is definitely much too large. I don't do as well in a molded cup, but this on is ok. I need something that smooths to the breast instead of needing the breast to conform to it. The lace isn't too thick, but it may show through some shirts.
This is a very pretty bra. I love the design of it. My breasts do better in a mesh type bra like this one. It is too small unfortunately, but I'd buy another if it came in a 30GG. Just like many other bras in the Parfait By Affinitas line, this bra runs small in the band. This is great for someone like me that needs a 28. If you don't like a tight band you may need to order up a band size. The cup runs the same as my other Gs in this line. I'll be posting those soon. ... Even though it is small I am wearing it for the first time today. So an update to come later with band stretch etc.
So after a day of wear, the band is still nice and tight fitting, not stretch. But it is definitely too small in the cups. The mesh cup has pretty detailing that left marks all over my chest. The straps stay in place, no sliding or slipping. I love the bra, but unfortunately it is too small. Read more 86 more words
I actually only tried this bra on in the store, so no measurements. But it definitely fit me in the ribcage and really almost fit in the cups! I am SO sad that it doesn't go into a GG, because that's what I truly needed.
