This bra has an almost 5 - star rating from 478 reviews (as of June 2021) on the Bravissimo website. When I ordered some bras recently, I thought, why not throw this in and see what all the hype is about. Unfortunately the bra did not work for me at all.
The material feels sturdy and strong, it looks like a good quality construction. The fit was really bad on me. My first impression was that the bra just looked really bulky, but that could also be because of the size. It was not easy to put on, not because I couldn't handle the closure (you need to try a few times but I think if you can close your regular bras on the back, you can manage this too?) but it just would not sit properly on my boobs. Swoop and scoop would not work to get the wrinkling on bottom, side and top away. I just could not get the wires to sit where they should. It doesn't look half as bad on my pics but it felt not nice to put on.
Also have to mention that I only can close the band with an extender. It is very firm, so keep that in mind and size up 1 band size. The cups do run quite large in my opinion. This 32K has the "new wires from J-cup up" which are apperently more narrow and provide better fit in large cups according to Bravissimo. I did not notice any of that, as they were kinda wide still. Apart from the more generous cup sizing, I still could not get my boobs to sit properly in these cups so I assume the shape is all wrong or maybe they are too shallow on bottom? I really don't know. Or the bra is just too large in cups / small in band. I fear that the neck closure could add pressure to that area when worn during a full day and cause neck pain. Also I don't find that the back view looks that pretty on me.
