Thanks to eBay I found another great deal on a Lejaby. I understand why most of us don't buy these at retail but I highly suggest this brand to people searching for narrow cups and projection when they can find past seasons at a discount. These bras have all had great detailing that is mostly unnoticeable under t-shirts. This one is cut very similar to the 65E Melusine I have but unfortunately the way the strap is angled it's cutting into my arm/upper arm pit a bit. I think I get a less rounded shape in this bra that I notice more without a shirt on but with a shirt I end up liking the shape quite a bit. If the bra were any less open at the top it would cut in on me but thankfully that only happens if I position my arms strangely the way it is. The tulle goes all the way around the bottom of the band but it's a very soft tulle and not scratchy at all. The band feels looser than its measures so I feel more comfortable starting on the second hooks. I'd say the bra is a relatively true coral or possibly salmon. The embroidery is shiny enough it doesn't work as a nude for me but I think it could for a person with paler skin. Black is a closer to disappearing under a shirt for me than a white bra. Love the tassel instead of bow at the gore. Gore is low but not stabby... just right. This doesn't seem like a full cut bra or a balconette exactly. This might be a plunge shape for this company but I'm not sure. I hope I can alter the straps in a bit to make it more comfortable.

ETA: still wearing this bra and it’s making more appearances in my rotation. In the end the straps don’t bother my arm during the day

  Congrats on yet another great find! It looks lovely on you - hope you can solve the strap issue. I saw this cut advertised as a 3/4 cup, a plunge and also as a plunge-balcony, but I don't know how Lejaby calls it originally. The labels just say underwired and a model code usually.

  I am so happy you had such a great find. What lovely bras. The do look very nice on you. Am having a bit of bra envy....lol.

• Thanks Scott! I really hope I can move the strap in so that it's more comfortable.

• Idk how you keep finding these lol! I run Lejaby searches on ebay all the time for 80E and 80F, and also 30E and 30F in case that's how the seller listed it, and never find sh*t!

• lcl0706 - They've all come up under the international eBay sellers... all being 3 so far. The other two I exchanged with erispe and I think she'd found them on eBay maybe too but she's in Europe. I've just been searching "Lejaby bra 30" and there are a lot more "standard" sizes unfortunately. Actually fig leaves carries some of the brand and so does Amazon, though uk Amazon has more (but basically no reviews) and twocakesonaplate has a few reviews. I found out trying to search more about them.

  I think we're running out of budget options for the pretty French bras - Amazon sells them for like 80$ (but they have more sizes). I am waiting for a parcel with 4 bras close to a month now. ~biting nails~
