Used to fit

I love this bra, BUT, it's impossible to wear. Similarly to a problem I had with the Curvy Kate Tease Me, the fit is great except for the fact that the underwires are VERY painful. It is killing me that I can't wear this beautiful, well-fitting bra because the underwires stab me so hard that I am left bruised for days if I try to wear it any longer than a couple of hours.

Bratabase will say that it fits, because it looks and feels like it, EXCEPT for the severely painful underwires.

I do not have this problem in any other bras (except the Tease Me, which I also had to return for this problem). I have the Cleo Lucy, which is also a balconette, and I cannot even FEEL the wires on that bra. Same size, same fit, same tightness, but somehow they managed to make the underwires NOT feel like death.

This bra is not owned any more

  • I just got this in 28E and I have to say I was thinking the same thing. When I held it up to my body right before fastening it I was thinking "oh god, the cups are so narrow," and I don't think it was actually that the cups were too narrow narrow, but I guess that I could feel how firm the wires were before I even fastened the bra! It fits me ok but I think I will try swapping out the underwires when I find some plunge wires lol. Crazy. I have never had wires that feel like this!
