Didn't fit

I've had this one a while and only just got around to writing a review because it doesn't exist on Bratabase yet. It was my go-to for a while, but I think the combo of having outgrown it a bit and the band stretching out means it's not long for my closet.

The Good: It's really pretty. The black mesh is embroidered with large red flowers across the cup, and the mesh detailing is sporty. The wires aren't too wide and for a seamed foam cup the projection isn't bad. It creates a nice silhouette under clothes (like Comexim but less minimised) and it's relatively comfy. It has the best nip coverage of all my current bras, and is a good cut for my FoT shape.

The Bad: That pretty mesh at the base of the band rolls up and gets itchy, the gore is just a smidge too wide and these days the cups are too small so the gore doesn't tack. It's a 30 band and I started on the tightest hooks, so its life was always going to be short, and in its defence, it didn't stretch out as quickly as a Cleo or a Freya.

The Ugly: Nothing really. I'd take the punt on a Boux Avenue 28F now if I could find a cheap one.

This workhorse has had a good life and been a good bra. Now it's saved for work shifts when I know it'll be sweaty and I don't want to ruin a Comexim, but still want something comfortable.
