Didn't fit

Just got this bra among a few others from Bravissimo. I thought the light beige colour could make a great t-shirt bra for me. I actually really like the colour and say it's even a geat colour as a nude bra if you are paler than me.

The Lola bra is for everyone who loves a very uplifted green shape (referring to the famous BrasIhate blog post) and really don't have a problem with a very retro look aka pointy boobs. Everyone else, avoid it.

I don't mind the green shape if it's rounded enough to not look like you wanna poke someone. ( For example in Ewa Michalak BM bras) It's not the case with this. It's so pointy, I feel uncomfortable with it.
So about the fit, it's what you'd expect from Balconette in that size range, typical to other Bravissimo bras. The cup edge are very tight and cut in, so it's not FOT friendly. The wires kinda wide and I have slight wrinkling on sides. Straps are kinda seperate but I've had worse, cup height on the side is also bearable. Quality seems nice, fabric is soft.

This bra is apparently based on the Candy Bliss (CB). Now I had CB and the shape as never like this. Marguerite by Bravissimo has the same cut. Marguerite and Lola are discontinued, so grab them now or if you are like me who dislikes them, good riddance.

This bra is not owned any more

    Hmm, the pointy retro look..I've yet to try a bra like this. In my country (well, I've lived in both Canada and US) the pointy retro bra is not common - mostly we have the molded cup/perfectly rounded/Barbie-Doll-shaped-boobs look from Victoria's Secret.

    I discovered BrasIHate recently, but another cool bra blog I learned of recently "Hugs for Your Jugs," lots of good info on there.

    I too am not a fan of the pointy retro look but it happens to me a lot with unlined three part bras that aren’t Polish :/

    Is it just me or is one cup more round and less pointy than the other? Seems like a weird quality control issue unless it’s just my (poor) vision.

    pretty_promise , I didn't really notice. Most people have a larger breast on the left side, I read.

    BraOdyssey on the left? How fascinating! Where did you read that? Now I’m all curious to know if they know WHY it’s that side.

    alisa i too dislike the pointy retro look for my bras, and I see what you mean about this one, very very pointy.

    dagmarwulfe , I can't remember where I read it! Lol. I just remember it b/c my left side is slightly larger!

    dagmarwulfe , I just googled it and it came up on this "Everyday Health" facts about breasts, number 2.

    dagmarwulfe BraOdyssey I've seen it floating around the Internet without any real solid scientific sources that it's because the left breast is closer to the heart. Something about blood flow, but I'm not sure how true it is.

    Guys, I added a "scary underneath" picture (which was invented by dbmamaz and adapted by many users here) to clear up the confusion. Yes both boobs are very pointy in this bra. It's the bra not the boobs :P It just has this cut, kinda like pyramid where there is an apex very high set in the bra. I think it should make your boobs look perky. For me that is too perky.

    I prefer the purple shape over the green shape. I find it more flattering on me. Since I already have big boobs I don't want them to stick out even more, rather prefer close to chest round shape.

    Holy heck, you’re right that bra is super pointy lol! It must’ve been an optical illusion/the angle on the other picture you uploaded, it kinda hid how pointy one side was.

    Honestly that is probably the pointiest bra I’ve ever seen, not gonna lie!

    It gives pyramid boob. Also the most elfshoe looking bra I ever saw. I did not expect that. I tried some elfshoe bras by Bravissimo but this tops them!
