Didn't fit

This was a surprise hit for me. I love a good paisley and the white is quite pretty. Most importantly - really comfortable!

(Me: Full on top, center-full, tall & wideish roots, close-set, narrow frame -well, for 5' 10" anyways lol)

Shape was wider in the front than I usually prefer, as the wires were a big wider than I usually prefer, but still rounded and even minimizing. I didn't quite fill the bottom of the cup, which tells me it's a wee bit shallow for me there, but didn't cause any trouble. Tall cups for my tall roots despite a bit of wrinkling near the outer edges of the cup due to lack of adequate projection for my softer, pendulous tissue which migrates towards the gore. (Can you say really center-full??) There was no give in the lace due to the lining behind it, but the top of the cup was open enough for my upper fullness, even though I usually need stretch lace on balconette/full-coverage cups.

Band pretty stretchy. I was on the 2nd hook by the 2nd day. Rides up a bit like every other band I've ever owned - maybe because center fullness always wants more room at the gore and pushes wires down a bit? Anyways - love it!

White colorway

    Thanks! Me too.This is my first full-cup since pre-pregnancy and it's opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me.

    Congrats on finding a comfortable fit! The Lacey is very tall but also a bit shallow in the bottom cup. I also have the bottom wrinkle issues but ignore them since the fit & support were really good.

    "There was no give in the lace due to the lining behind it" :O What really? So they did the same as in the regular Lacey? I have 32J Lacey Paisley and the top is stretchy, so is my regular 32J and 34J Laceys - however 30JJ and 32JJ regular Lacey are non stretchy.

    I have asked Bravissimo if in the Paisley and Floral the top is stretchy above J cup and they confirmed! So I'm shocked to learn it isn't in this bra. Thanks for the review. So helpful!

    alisa Thanks for reviewing it - you inspired me to try Full-coverage for the first time in forever! I am pleasantly surprised the non-stretch lace worked out for me. The only downside is as the bra stretches that I am finding I am limited in how much I can tighten the straps to hike the girls up for more lift. The cups soon begins to cut into my upper breast tissue and quads me out. It’s small potatoes, though. This is not my sexy bra, this is my stay at home or be comfortable under a sweater bra. And for those purposes I love it. :)

    I'm happy to inspire you to try more Bravissimo. While I rant a lot about them, they also make some of the best bras for big boobs. I think why Lacey works so well for you (and me) is that there is a lot of extra room added by it's extra tall cups. If I lay my Lacey over other Bras it's apparent how much taller it is. So it also helps with the other fot issue, the quadboob which is less in this.

    Is the 2 hook band a problem for you? I think the 3x3 give more support - I tried bras that had only 2 x2 from Bravissimo and noticed huge lack of support. Regular Lacey as 3x3 in 30JJ I can confirm the beige and cornflower since I own both.

    Agreed! I really need that height in the cups. The 2 hook band is fine for me - surprisingly. I think 3 would stabilize the band better and maybe help keep it from riding up - but that all theoretical.

    I'll def see if the difference is noticeable w the 3x3 band in reg Lacey. Have one on order. Fingers crossed for another good fit!
