Finallygotboobs

I was fitted at Nordstrom and this was one of their recommendations for me. I wish now I hadn't bought this bra. At the time I didn't know how to properly swoop and scoop. Now that I do I can really tell it doesn't fit. It flattens my boobs in front and pushes them out to the sides too much. I have soft tissue and this bra doesn't give much lift. I have have a lot of side boobage. The stretchy band doesn't hold the wires firmly against my sides and the side tissue escapes as I wear it. And if it's supposed to be a t shirt bra then why put the lace on top? It shows through knits.

I will say that it's comfortable. I just think it would be better for someone with firmer breasts that face forward more than mine.

This bra is so pretty and soft. The lace looks like it would be scratchy but it's not at all! I was so disappointed in the fit though. I'm not sure if the cup was too small. My shape is fairly even tending slightly to FOT and the top of the cups cut into my breasts so maybe it was more of a shape mismatch. The gore was pretty tall too.

This bra is beautifully made of quality materials. I wish it had fit me better.

Can’t tell much because the band was way too tight. When I first looked at it I thought they sent a 32F by mistake, but no 36F it is. Cups might be a touch small but next size up probably too big. Straps are skinny and rub on sides of my arms. Just not a good match for me I guess.

I could say all kinds of things about this bra, but it wouldn't matter because it doesn't perform the basic function of a sports bra which is to control movement. All I did was go up on my toes and bounce a little, didn't even leave the ground, and the girls were having a grand ol' time going up, down, and all around. The day I received this I also got a Glamorize Sport Double Layer Custom Control Bra (1166) in 36G which turned out to be a size too large in the cups. Even being too big the Glamorize controlled the bounce much better than this one.

Probably OK for light impact stuff and weight lifting. It looks cute, but I would rather have only sports bras that will do the job for whatever kind of workout I might do.

I was so excited for this in the rosegold color which is a beautiful deep salmon. Unfortunately like most Elomi it just doesn’t play well with my center fullness. The cups are generously sized and they’re too large in any case.

I didn’t realize the cups are made of 2 different fabrics. The inner part is spacer while the outer part is smooth lustrous knitwear with a lace overlay. The band is firmer than most Elomi so I’d need 36F if the shape matched mine better.

So pretty, but I can't tell anything about it because the cups are huge and the band is super stretchy. Hopefully my measurements are helpful.

I don't know if it's because of the black dye or if it's mislabeled, but this bra is much smaller in every dimension than the Bratabase measurements for this size and style. I need an extender fastened on the last hook to try it on. The cups are pretty good, a small amount of gapping at the top near the straps. Shoulder straps are too wide, possibly because the strap placement in the back is wider because of using the extender. The straps are of stiff fabric and they dig in. The thing is, I really like the shape I'm getting in this. Looks great under clothes. I may try it in a larger band and slightly smaller cup.

Technically it fits but it really doesn’t The shape is just off. I’ve tried several Curvy Kates now and they just don’t work for me.

It almost fit. Flattens my breasts a bit near the gore and extra space near the straps. I’m center full and I have the same issues with pretty much every Freya and Elomi bra I’ve tried. But I keep hoping!

This bra has a very lightly padded 3 part cup with reembroidered lace overlay. It has a cottony feel. The denim color is lovely. I do think the lace would show through a thin shirt but it’s very pretty.

This bra is very lightweight but has some serious architecture inside. The outer cup fabric is soft stretch lace. The bottom and outer top part of the cups are lined with a translucent non-stretch tricot fabric that provides excellent structure and support. The band has a side seam but no boning. From the cup to the side seam it is the same tricot inner/lace outer fabric. The back is firm stretch mesh covered with the same stretch lace. The straps sit wide in front but it's a leotard back so no problems with falling straps even on my narrow shoulders. The sides and gore are quite tall but ... are still comfortable for me. The wires seem thinner than the ones on some of the other Panache bras I've tried.

The Latte colorway is a light buff nude that is flattering to me. I like that there are no extra decorations. The lace, rose gold toned hardware, and shape of the bra stand on their own. The only thing I can knock this for is the horizontal cup seam is thick and shows under thinner knits. Still, it's a very nice bra and definitely will find a place in my wardrobe.
