My recent Bravissimo order + first Pepperberry purchase
My Bravissimo order finally arrived
Short summary: The bras don’t fit me and are all going back. If anyone is interested in a Fleur 32K, Dotty Spot 30JJ, please message me.I have the bras here until mid next week.
The Notch Neck cardigan is not that bad, but I think Pepperberry clothes are not designed for my shape and I would need a Super Duper Curvy to get a better fit.
Dotty Spot 30JJ:
I have ignored all the reviews that were ranting about how pointy the shape of the Dotty Spot is and though to myself: it won’t be that pointy on me. LOL I was so wrong! That bra is made to poke someones eyes out with it! No, really I would have loved this, if it gave me a Cleo-like round shape! I have to say that it is a very supportive bra and very comfy material.
The wires are strong, shoulder straps wide just like I like it and the print is just soo cute. But I have no occaison to wear it. It is not suitable for everyday wear (at least on me, I heard it is less pointy in smaller sizes) therefore it’s going back. I wont buy a bra even on sale which I know I will hardly wear.
Fleur 32K:
Fleur really impressed me. I was scared I wouldn’t like it after I saw the pictures from XLHourglass in the Fleur. Very comfortable materials, wide straps and overall it is very supportive. I love how Bravissimo bras are really built to carry a 30JJ/K bust, when Freyas are not.
I have followed Raspberryleafs advice and got it 1 band size + 1 cupsize bigger than Alana.
I was so glad I got up 1 band size! At first I could barely fasten the 32 band! It’s the tightest band I ever had on a 32 bra.
So I would really advice to size up 1 band size in this bra or if you are between sizes, go with your bigger size.
However sizing up in the cups was not a good idea. They are too big on me. If I thighten the straps all the way I can get a decent fit. But there is still some slight gaping on top.
Also I’m not impressed by the shape it gives me. But this might be because it’s too big and it would give me a better shape in the right size.
The wires were really narrow for a bra in that size. I normally wear 30JJ and the wires of the 32K Fleur were not even too wide for me. I needed the wire width of the K-Cup.
So I’m not sure If I want to give it a second chance in a 32JJ.
Linear Rose: Did not arrive yet. They must have sent it in a different parcel.

Oh geez, I'm sorry :(
I've realized since then that I really have no business giving anyone advice about cup fit.
(although maybe the wires would've been bad if you had gotten it smaller . . . Odd, how narrow they are!)
So I guess Fleur cups size should be the same as Alana for most people? But band size bigger? (WHY does the band run so tight? It's weird!)
Wow, the narrow wires sound like my cup of tea. I might give it a shot. Thanks for the update.
Now I hope you give ewa a shot :)
