They now have a preorder Curve collection in extended sizes. Anyone have any feedback on the fit of this brand in their regular sizes?

I have a couple of their bras from my pre-abtf days and they're pretty nice. They seem pretty true to size in the cup and a little small in the band. It's a bit hard to say though since they're 32Bs which never actually fit me correctly and they were some of the first bras I measured so I might have done it wrong. Sizing in the coordinates is pretty standard too. I did have an issue where I got a matching brief and garter belt and although the briefs fit fine, the garter belt seems a size larger.
On a side note, I would say I actually like Playful Promises better than Kiss Me Deadly. The fit and materials seem better, but this is based on the single pair of Kiss Me Deadly briefs I own.
So I was at Target today, wasn't looking for swimwear or clothes but I stopped to browse anyhow. I decided to investigate their bikini tops to see if anything could possibly work. I'm browsing the racks and see a tag that says D/DD. I pull out the D/DD top and take a look at it. It ... has no band size listed but the cups are quite large (far to large for my 30E/F's). I look at the band and it is a larger band. I think Target is using the D/DD in place of an XL or 2XL, I saw XS-L and I can't remember if I saw XL or not so I'm not for sure which size they are using D/DD in place of. My guess is the band was close to a 38 or 40 so if anyone is a 38DD or 40D you might be able to find a bikini top at Target if it's the right shape for you. I could be off on the band size guess I didn't have a measuring tape with me.

I bought a few 'large cup' bathing suits at walmart several years ago. They were flexible enough to fit me reasonably well. I was quite pleased. Of course, i'm much bigger now. Before I discovered 'real' bras, I had ordered some DDD bathing suits from lands end that worked well enough. I havent been swimming since then! I also ordered a swim bra from decent exposures, whcih i did try on the other day - i've outgrown it (and the straps are still too long)
You've reminded me to post about my experience with Old Navy swimwear! I saw so many cute bikini tops at Target but I didn't even bother to try them on.

So Bravissimo has the Curvy Kate Luxe strapless in expanded sizes now. Goes up to a J cup on 28 - 38 bands. Now there is three strapless in my size! I got one, and I stayed up in it, but the seams were so visible and I fell out the middle. But it is an option!

This is especially towards UK users because Lepel's international shipping prices are steep - Lepel is having a sale where most of the bras cost £5 and brief cost £3! They also have some swimwear available that is equally cheap. If you fit into their size range, the prices are amazing. The sale is supposed to end midnight tonight.
PS: If ... you want to let me combine an order with you (or if you would be equally happy to have an order I make shipped to you) and then ship it across the pond to the US (I'd paypal the cost!), please let me know ASAP!

Just wanted to make sure those of you in Canada (or ordering from Canada/Bra Obsessed) are aware that there may be disruptions in the postal service pretty soon due to threat of strike.

D to hh ..boo not my size . Wish more companies would be upfront about range d and up is vague blah more click and disappointed . Just say d to hh or whatever you got . Not bad looking colors though .
It is in the "Angel" collection, so is designed for teens, and sadly nothing 28E+ but it's a start. I'm hoping they will bring in more 28s again.

Anyone with a Topshop near you - are they in the store? Or just on the website?
Exciting to have 28 bands sold by another mainstream brand!

"All sizes on this site are US sizes"
...
And all the DD's and FF's are down at the bottom of the list lol
So I started a blog forever ago, and made a couple posts but never publicized anything. The first few were just mostly copies of my Bratabase reviews. After writing my review on the M Magique today and doing a bit of a comparison to the PL, I decided to put that on my blog and finally decided that ... I might actually give blogging try. I do work more during the summer than any other time of year so I guess I will see how well I keep up with it. I will probably go back and edit some of the first reviews I posted if I can remember anything about those bras. The name kind of sucks, but I can't think of anything better to call it at the moment http://mythoughtsonbras.blogspot.com/

Looks great!!
I agree! And I think the name is good too; it is descriptive, and it has a very nice roll to it. The repetitive "a" sound in "thougbtsonbras" is catchy! 😊

I'll be curious to see what the sizing is like on the 28 bands. When I tried a couple of their 30s a few years ago they were super tiny, closer to 28s and 26s.
Maybe the 28s are like 24s or 26s then!

That was me! (And maybe one other person as well). I'm hoping that they release the brown one from their facebook page soon so I can just order them all together lol
Oh, I love the look of this bra!! Though I've ordered way too many bras recently so I'll probably hold off for now lol

I was excited to see this bra on Adore Me - there are a few 30 bands up to 30DDD, but otherwise mostly matrix sizes. I'm going for the 30DDD! What do you guys think? I'll be ordering this .. in a paycheck or two at least.

Be careful. Don't get roped into their subscription thing.
wild_muses Yeah I was reading about that. Seems a bit sketchy. I'll make sure to read everything!

Not as many people in it yet as the 47,000 on Reddit. But less than a day old it already has 200 members, so hopefully one day it will!
There are slightly different rules so bear this in mind
Please invite all your friends needing bra advice!
Thanks

The comexim from the Facebook video.
I wasn't particularly a fan when I saw it in the video, but seeing it up close, I like it. I'll order it after I get my 3HCs (don't know how that'll fit me yet). I love the snakeskin and the pink together.

I wasn't sure about it in the video like you, but I can dig it. I love all of Comexim's new offerings.
I'm ordering it through Comexim, but making it a standard plunge cut. In an email, Anna said that it's cut like the Ginger. Excited to see how the fabric looks in person!! :)

I don't know if this was already posted, but there's a new colorful 😍 bra available. As of now I don't see any matching panties for sale.
I really want to add this to my order, but I'd want to add the panties with it.
Also, it kind of looks like swimwear to me.

I'm considering this one in a 3HC. It reminds me of a painter's palette.
I just want them to release the pastel snakeskin looking one lol. She said it would be up Monday, so I'm kinda wondering if they decided not to release it or something (since Comexim usually sticks to their release dates).

If you have been wanted to order direct from either Ewa Michalak or Comexim, but find the process daunting, here is a great blog post done by my co-blogger Yoomee which completely de-mystifies the process. I hope this helps some!

They may want to edit the price of changing the cut for Ewa. It's now 40pln and not 20pln.
The info about getting custom orders from Comexim is also outdated. If you email them, they'll just tell you to order through the website and put any customizations you want, including size, in the comment box for the order.

I'm holding out for Mohito! The red one might go on my wish list though.
"Ladybug"
It's called a plunge, but looks like a 3HC with a ribbon at the top. So I wonder what the fit is like.
It also doesn't seem to come in 60 band sizes

I often request an unlisted band and/or cup size in the comments section....
Hmm, no, it's not doing it for me - it's no substitute for Sonia!

Of the new ones, I only like the one I've been waiting for. Dont like brights or pink.
I like the M Opuncja, but it's too similar to my Comexim Dottie, the color scheme is identical. I like the Różowa Mgiełka too, I think it could work as a nude on me and I would like an unlined nude. Really need to sell some of my bras before I order more though.
