I don't have that much luck with Parfait by Affinitas because most of their styles top out at a G cup and I find the cups can run a little small. Needing a 30G in other brands, that means I'm often out of luck. I also have only found one b&m store so far where I could try them on without ordering blind online. And why so few measurements on Bratabase for their new models? I would order more if I had something to go by. But I digress.

I was impressed with the quality of Parfait By Affinitas Fiona Balconet Molded Padded Bra (2701) The material feels very smooth and nice and the cups substantial and high quality. They are quite thickly molded, but soft to the touch. The champagne color is beautiful and I even liked the lace although I'd prefer something that would show less through my clothes. I do wonder how well it would hand wash without getting wrinkly, but even the satiny feel to the material felt nice and not cheap. The straps were the only let down for me. The folded detail at the front is a pretty touch, but it makes them stretchy like an accordion and they are only partly adjustable, so I couldn't tighten them enough for my petite frame and high-set breasts. I kept wanting to pull the bra up.

The 30G in Fiona actually fit me surprisingly well. I found the band to be comfortable and the cups seemed to contain me well, minus of course that I needed the straps to be tightened more. I don't know if I'd get my usual quadboobing in Affinitas' 30G if I could tighten it the way it needed to be. All in all I was very tempted to buy this bra at around $30 on sale. Maybe a strap saver would have done the job. For now it's on the wish list only because I don't have any space for more padded bras and it just wasn't the right pick for summer.
