The design is so pretty and delicate and the bra feels very well-made, but I prefer the fit of the unpadded shoulder bra cut. The cups are made from thin lace that has a very slight give to it (not a stretch lace, just not completely rigid), and the cup edge is not elasticated - it’s just a narrow satin trim with no stretch. I think this is why the edge cuts in very slightly on me, though at first I wondered if the cups were too small. I have even fullness and my breast tissue doesn’t come up very high, so this might be an awkward cut if you’re full on top or have tall breasts, and I don’t know how well it would work on someone more shallow than me (I suspect it might be too narrow and closed on top). The cups have no seams, just a dart, and the shape I get in this bra is basically the same as my natural shape.

This was the third Mimi Holliday 28 band I tried, and it’s noticeably tighter than the first two (28C - Mimi Holliday » Panna Cotta Super Plunge (AW11-210) and 28D - Mimi Holliday » Woozie Silk Satin Shoulder Bra (SS13-221) ). I can easily fasten it and the wires aren’t distorted, but I’m sensitive to tight bands and this one is verging on too tight for my preference.

This bra is not owned any more
