Simone Perele bras are always gorgeous, with soft, elegant lace and delicate styling. I love the look of these bras, but unfortunately they rarely work out for me.

While all SP bands are very stretchy rather than firm, I've found that there's a lot of variation in how they measure. This particular band is the most supportive one I've tried, being made out of what seems like a very compact, high-stretch crepe-backed charmeuse with lovely jacquard patterns. I wish SP used this material in more bands!

Simone Perele is no stranger to strap detailing, and this style has a lace overlay of medallions and floral motifs on the front of the straps. Since this detailing goes quite far back, it's possible that on someone shorter than me that the straps could not be adjusted short enough. On me, the straps were adjusted as short as they could go with no room to spare.

Cup-wise, this fits very similarly to my other SP unlined demi cups and is very similar to the Amour Demi, but with slightly deeper and significantly taller cups. Compared to other brands, these cups tend to have a deep U shape, and run narrow and tall. The binding at the top is fairly closed off. The top edge sits flush against my skin, but there's a lot of excess fabric right below the elastic.

The cups are made from the same soft, fine mesh as Delice, with floral embroidered motifs, and the upper edge of the cups has floral embroidered lace insets. The interior of the cup has a tulle panel that runs diagonally through the cup and is seamed into the cup's middle shaping seam. The cups give a good rounded shape, but are most suited for breasts that are narrow, round, projected, with average roots. It's too narrow for wide shapes, too projected for FOB or shallow shapes, and too closed off for tall roots.

Since I had problems with this cut in Amour and Promesse, which are all shorter in cup height than Wish, there was no way I could make this style work for me. Sadly, this is another gorgeous SP style I'll have to pass on.
