Didn't fit

Since my old Bravissimo bras felt a bit big in my usual size (34L) and I also lost a few pounds I decided to size down. It was a mistake. I should not have sized down in the band. I cannot fasten it, and with the extender it still feels too tight. The band does only stretch 1 cm wider than my break-the -ape underbust measurement which is about 31 Inch / 79cm. It is also quite a bit smaller and less stretchier than the band of my 32K Panache Tango. (which fits me)
So beware and size up in band in this bra, if you are between sizes.

The cups are a decent fit as far as I could wear the bra for a few minutes with the extender. The gore lies as flat as possible on my close-set boobs, there is no empty space in the cups. The straps don't fit properly and are not at the right position because of the too small band.

The shape this bra gives me is amazing. It's a front and center shape but not too projected that it feels unsupportive. The shape from the side is very rounded and from the front my boobs are not too "east-west". The cups are deep, average width for the size range and quite tall which helps to keep my big and soft boobs firm to my chest. I really recommended this bra for bigger deep and rather narrow boobs that need lots of support.

The straps are fully adjustable which is a plus. The print … yeah it's a bit darker than I expected from the photo but it's okay I guess. I'd like this bra to come also in solid colors as I prefer it's shape and construction over the Alana.

As this bra does not fit me, I will return this and exchange it for an 34KK.

This bra is not owned any more

  • Have you tried EWa's FB? Can you compare? I"m mostly wearing FBs now and some Tangos

  • No, I haven't tried them. A few years ago I tried some polish bras but none worked for me. They were too narrow and projected and not enough support.
    Tango is a great bra but I don't like the wider east-west shape. I think it makes me look a bit bigger in the upper body than the Bravissimo ones.

    The FB is a totally different bra. I bought my first one because someone had bought one way too small and she was in a bind, coudlnt afford to return it - i was so shocked. It was the most comfortable bra i'd ever worn. I never needed to adjust it during the day. I bought two more - they arent exactly as perfect but pretty damn close
