Agbras

This is really such a pretty bra! And,not at all what I was expecting for a "padded" bra - without the cookies in, I would consider it to be more like a moulded bra (in thickness at least). It's super.

The lace is pretty and soft and the details on the wings and straps are nice.

The gore is REALLY nice - it's sheer and has a bezel set crystal hanging under a small black satin bow.

The only negative is how the cookies go in. The pocket is like a folded over pillow sham. However, I don't think most people would be taking them out and putting them back in on a daily basis, so it wouldn't deter me from buying the bra.

I bought this bra in 2 sizes - 70DD and 75D - for my Mom to try. I'm just adding them here for data. But....I'd be tempted to buy it from a fellow user if it came up in my size https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

This one came to me from VioletIridescence and I really love it. I'm so grateful for the "sharing" culture here.

The colour is such a nice sophisticated shade of deep raspberry. It's pink without being too pink.

What I like about this style is that it doesn't have tape covering the vertical seams like many CHP's do.

The straps are a little too wide set, but I expect that now and just accept it. It doesn't cause me any discomfort and I'm not inclined to make any alterations.

The band is perfect for a 65. It has just 2 hooks. I find I'm often wishing for 3. I find that ... 2 rows tend to be more susceptible to wear - I like to wear my band snug, and I like them wide all the way to the closure.

You can also see that, like with my 65G SM Rozmarzona, there is a TEENY bit of gaping right at the top of the cup at the lace. I tried putting cookies in the bra, and it didn't change a thing, so I just think that if it were closed off a little at the top of the cup, it would suit my shape better. I have an S -style coming in size 65FF and I'm super curious to see if I can cup-size down even in padded styles.

All that being said, I would consider it a fit and it's a gorgeous, comfortable bra that'll give a little more va-va-va voom in a sweater or an open neck blouse.

P.S. I'll upload measurements tonight.

I've been looking a simple, every day beige bra that wasn't so precious (I.e. $) that I'd be worried about wearing it to work. I'm a meal prep chef and I often splash oil or sauce on myself and even with an apron, every now and again something will seep through. If oil stained and ruined a $100 bra, I'd lament for days.

Anyways...I read here on BtB that this style was narrow with deep cups so I took a chance and ordered 65G.

It's pretty much a perfect fit. And, it's pretty for a beige bra.

Is it an EM? No. Absolutely not. But, to be honest, ... it's not far off my bibi Blanca in terms of style and fit and quality, too. I'd say just 1/2 step down with difference in band firmness being notable.

For the money, I'll happily wear it cooking.

It gives a slightly less rounded shape than my bibi, but I like the natural profile for everyday wear.
The straps are nice and not too wide set.
And yes, the wires are very, very narrow. So narrow, that when I took this bra out of the box, my first thought was, "there is no way this is going to be big enough." But...Perfect. Awe-sum-ness.

I'll load more pics and measures tonight.

Havana fits exactly how I have come to expect Gorsenia softcups to fit me - PERFECTLY!!!

Narrow wires, deep cups and a TTS band.

One of the things that I love about Gorsenia bras is that they are perfect for my small frame: the straps are perfectly placed and not too wide, the wings are boned and just the right height, the cups are narrow, deep, projected and cover on the sides without eating my armpits and the band is firm and supportive even with only 2 hooks.

Havana is a gorgeous shade of lavender satin with stretch lilac and lavender lace. It has pale lilac satin bows on the ... straps and a small lilac bow with a clear crystal charm on the gore.

The panties that match this set are classic briefs, made from matching sueded microfiber. I never wore briefs before buying Gorsenia...however I have a thing about wearing matching sets and and if a brazil or thong isn't available, then I have no choice. But, I have come to learn that Gorsenia panties, no matter what the cut, are awesome. They are always comfortable, full coverage and because they are cut so well and trimmed with lace they never look like granny panties!!

Gorsenia soft cups give me everything that I like about Ewa Michalak half lace BMs at a much lower price point and in a greater variety of styles and colours!! In fact, they are the power horses in my bra drawer...perfect for everyday wear.

Thank you to MagdaBras4you for helping me get this set https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

The first EM bra that I ever tried was this one- in size 70G-and it was much too big in both band and cup. I loved the simplicity of it though. It seemed like a great "workhorse" bra for every day working and running around with my kids.

After trying several BM styles in a 65FF (and busting out of them) and CHP and SM in 65G and having nearly perfect fit, I decided to take another stab at this style - in a 65G - during the Boxing Day Sale.

I am 90% pleased with this bra. I don't think I am going to get perfect due to ... having one breast that is bigger and lower than the other (yes, even after having corrective surgery for taming, that girl is still pushing her friend around lol)

What don't I like?

I don't like wrinkling in the bottom of the cup. But, it seems that everyone gets it in Sf styles, even Gosia.

I don't like the little lip that the mesh creates at the top of the cup. It's not evident when I stand straight and I'd rather have that than quadding.

The band is TTS - just a slight stretch and it easily fastens on the loosest hook.

The straps are pretty with embroidery and adjust all the way up. Good for me, as I have short roots.

This bra is the first is my order direct from EM. I was terrified that it wouldn't fit since my SM Rozmarzona 65G fits so perfectly.

But...it FITS pretty much perfectly. Tack is awesome. Band is TTS. The lace at the top of the cup is just just just barely closed enough. I suspect it will "ruffle" if I lose 1/2 a pound. Christmas is coming...won't be an issue this month LOL

It's also a half cup bra for sure - perfect for wearing under low scoop neck tops, but unlike other half cups I've tried, the way Ewa's straps are attached, they provide a little extra coverage at the side, which I really appreciate.

The lace is gorgeous and I love it!!

I'll measure it later - I wanted to post the pics because I know that some girls have been wanting to see.

This is another gorgeous soft aqua embroidered soft cup bra. It's a 3 piece cup of embroidered mesh. Bottom of the cup is lined with ultrafine lining mesh. Top panel is left sheer and it has white accents in the embroidery. There is fine, soft elastic running along the top of the cup to allow for more upper fullness. If it isn't stretched, it creates a pretty shirred edge effect.

This is the 3rd KL soft cup style I've tried (in both 65G and 65GG) and they all fit (and measure) differently.

Apparently, Ewa Michalak and Comexim aren't the only inconsistent ones lol

This one is by far the ... widest and shallower of the 3. I don't get a tack (finger width away) and I get some lower cup wrinkling and a little empty cup action on the sides where the wire is too wide.

The bra is otherwise very comfortable. And the quality is top shelf.

Krislines have lower wing heights and longer bands than my EMs. A 65 band is a 65 cm unstretched. As someone between 65 and 70, I love it.

I'll be keeping this bra because, despite the fit issues, it is comfortable and absolutely beautiful. Until EM starts offering embroidered styles, I'll be ordering from KL when something catches my eye.

I have to thank MagdaBras4you for getting me this bra set.
Her expertise, patience and customer service is more than excellent.

P.S. I have listed the 65GG for sale.

For those interested to compare cup shape and width of this bra vs an Ewa Michalak BM in the same size:

Antonina's colour is exactly what I hoped for - on me, in the dead of winter, it'll be nude.

It's a cream coloured lace over nude lining. It create a cafe au lait appearance from afar.

It is stunningly beautiful.

This bra fits to perfection. And I mean perfection. There's no room for error here. Weight must be maintained or I'll bust it. LOL All jokes aside, this is a bra that I'd be able to wear all day every day in perfect comfort, and support heaven. I wouldn't complain if it was a little bit bigger...65G BM's are coming my way from martka00 and I'm curious to compare.

Tack is perfect, band is TTS and is lace all the way around. I love that. I also like that the scalloped edge of the lace trims the band so nicely.

Projection at the wire seems better (i.e. deeper. Deeper is better for me) in this one than in Fluo.

I have been wanting a corset forever...I have also been wanting to try semi-soft bras for quite a while.

This model was on sale so I decided to take a chance and order it. I am so glad that I did!!

To begin, this is built like a corset that has been attached to a semi-soft bra - What I mean by that, is that all the structure of a bra is built inside, including a band/cradle and then the components of a corset are attached to it.

The band, fastened on the tighter set of hooks fits just like all of my KL 65 bands. So, I would be inclined ... to say that it is tight for a 70.

As for the fit of the bra part - right out of the box, the wires were narrow and the cups were deep and projected. The wires were about 1cm wider than I like and I was about 1/2 finger depth away from tacking - no small miracle. So, I bent my wires in a bit (I do this all the time with my KLs) and now I have a hard tack at the top 3/4 of the gore. The very bottom(1/2 cm) of the gore does not tack, but in a corset, I don't expect such a perfect fit. There is too much going on with adding a body piece.

The bottom 2/3 of the cup is lined with thin corsetry foam - to me, this is the perfect middle ground between a soft bra and a padded bra. (Hurray!! I'l be buying more KL semi-softs in the very near future!!) It is covered with cotton on the inside and pretty printed matte satin knitwear on the front side.

The top 1/3 of the cup is the gorgeous embroidered mesh that I have come to expect from KL - on this model it is 2-toned - black with smokey lavender trim to match the printed knitwear. Stunning. I get a clean, smooth line at the top of the cup and nice rounded shape from it too https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Straps have embroidery on the top/front 1/3, so technically they're not fully adjustable, but I have always been able to pull the adjuster up over the embroidery. Despite being someone who likes her straps short and tight, on my KL bras, I don't need to do this...but I have confirmed that it can be done.

The gore has a small black chiffon bow with a clear crystal charm.

The front body of the corset is shirred black mesh on the sides coming into a center panel of printed knitwear. This has a very slimming, hour-glass figure-creating effect. The bottom is trimmed with the same embroidered mesh as the top 1/3 of the bra.

The back has a full length 2 column hook and eye closure. The sides are matte black knitwear(nice strong powerful stretch) and the center panel, where the hooks are, is the printed knitwear.

Garters/Stocking attachments are adjustable and removable.

The matching Brazil panties (in Poland, they call these stringo-szorty) are gorgeous, with matching embroideries and knitwear, in perfect size and cut as all KL panties are!!

Thank you to MagdaBras4you for helping me to get this stunningly beautiful piece of Kris Line lingerie https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Margo fits exactly how I have come to expect Gorsenia softcups to fit me - PERFECTLY!!!

Narrow wires, deep cups and a TTS band.

One of the things that I love about Gorsenia bras is that they are perfect for my small frame: the straps are perfectly placed and not too wide, the wings are boned and just the right height, the cups are narrow, deep, projected and cover on the sides without eating my armpits and the band is firm and supportive even with only 2 hooks.

This particular model has an old fashioned English garden type print that is matched everywhere - the sides are printed power mesh, ... the cups and cradle are printed satin knitwear and the panties are printed sueded microfiber. The top of the cup is embroidered with a lovely scalloped edge. There are little bows on the straps and the gore has a bow with a cameo ornament. It's quite different from anything I have ever seen.

I worried a little about buying this bra - thinking that it was so old-fashioned looking it might look too Grandma. But, nope. I put it on this morning and my boyfriend said, "Wow. Nice. Old school. Love it. Sexy, babe." These comments mean Margo's a keeper https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" />
