Broke another bra. Sigh.
I recall the last time this happened, I was oddly excited (?!?). http://www.bratabase.com/adventures/entry/4757/
This time around, I'm not nearly as amused. It happened on another one of my Gossard Superboost bras. Is there a reason they make the multiway hooks out of plastic? Considering how thin the straps are, I mean, did they not think to make better hardware in case, I dunno, some drunken bride-to-be decides to bear hug the shit out of me?
Which brings me to my current task: I need to find a replacement for my beloved (yet inherently flawed) 30G - Gossard ยป Superboost Satin Plunge Bra (5771). I need the thin straps and the plunge and the colour and all that jazz. This bra's been discontinued for a very long time so I know I might need to consider new options.
Does anyone have any ideas for a similar replacement that fits the bill? I have tried the Search by Measurements function and came up with these suggestions http://www.bratabase.com/search/?q=&units=1&stretched_band_length_min=&stretched_band_length_max=&band_length_min=&band_length_max=&cup_width_min=&cup_width_max=&cup_depth_min=&cup_depth_max=&wire_length_min=&wire_length_max=&strap_width_min=.25&strap_width_max=0.5&gore_height_min=1&gore_height_max=2.5&wing_height_min=&wing_height_max=&hooks_min=&hooks_max=&min_bras=&selected_facets=size_range:30g&selected_facets=model_type:1#results-header
Sigh. Looks like I'm sticking with Gossard after all
It finally happened ...
I finally broke my first well fitting bra. I apologize if I almost sound proud o

It *looks* a lot like Bravissimo's Satine?
Straps are definitely wider though.
Here's a very cheap Masquerade Harem - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351854258403?var=621146987232 - different style but one of the narrowest straps I've ever encountered on a full bust bra!
And if the bra is otherwise still ok, is a repair (replacing the hardware) an option?
Btw as you may know Superboost Lace can still be found, but perhaps you need / want the smooth fabric of your broken Satin.
Lastly, In my experience some Cleos have pretty thin straps? Like Breeze and to a lesser extent, Mimi?
Good luck!

And... Here's a cheap Cappuccino Gossard Satin in 30G (:
