Brands by quality?
Bra quality - this is something very important to me, more than looks in a bra. Quality for me means four things - materials, sewing, strenght and durability. First two influence comfort level, the other two how wellthe bra pays off.
So, having those criteria in mind, how would you line brands you've tried from best to worse?
Mine are
1.chantelle - absolute winner in all categories
2. Freya - I may not wear them much because of the shape, but they tend to pick their materials with everything in mind, sewing is good and the bras are comfy and last a long time.
3.ewa michalak - it would be in the second place if the brand wasn't so inconsistent in picking materials and sewing. Some bras would put them at the top, others knock them down - the really tend to choose some cheap materials sometimes
4. Curvy kate - dont wear them, but materials and sewing is impecable. Cant speak about durability though.
5. Bravissimo - they also had some fails in choosing materials. I have problems with their straps and the wires tend to pop out after time. They are scratcy, but supersturdy.
6. Panache - it wears out quicly, especially lacy parts - compaired to chantelle lace it's really much lower
quality. I saw somethreads sticking out not once. Scratcy too.
7. Cleo. By a mile worse materials ever. Ever.
So, the sadest part is - two brands I wear moste were listed last

You are right about Panache : bad quality. My lagoon Andorra looked after 5 weeks of wearing like I've worn it for years. The lace does fazzle out and tore apart on some places. Btw. I only hand-washed it.
The Bravissimo's bras I bought are so far not bad, but there are lots of comments on wires popping out on the Bravissimo page.
Please do a line up :)
