This is a pretty bra (thank you for sending it to me, mandapandarawks!). It's a gorgeous purple with a sculpted lace upper portion. The material is super stretchy and that's what makes this one work for me. Because of the stretchiness, it allows enough projection at the wire without the lace upper portion gapping or being too loose. It also has slide supports that I've often seen attached inside the cup on other bras. This is my first experience with it outside the cup. If I slouch, the side "sling" looks misplaced and gaps, but none of this shows beneath a shirt. The straps seem a bit stretchy and wide so it might not work for really narrow shoulders. It's a comfortable bra and I love it.

this is the last bra i ordered in my old size of 32ff. its a pretty unsaturated color in person vs the online photos that were provided - not necessarily the bras fault but i am sad about it. overall, its very comfortable aside from the minimal quadboob that it gives me. quality is surprisingly good provided i only paid $13!

I have Glamour in a 32F, 30FF and 30GG; the 32F has a 2-hook closure and the two 30 bands have a 3-hook closure.

How each size fits me:

32F - like a 34FF, some support, mostly filled top, filled bottom, no quad/spillage, soft tack

30FF- like a 32G, good support, mostly filled top, filled bottom, no quad/spillage, soft tack

30GG- like a 32H, good support, mostly filled top, filled bottom, no quad/spillage, wings and gore come up slightly taller which is fine for me, perfect tack

Clearly this model is extremely forgiving in terms of fit; I was able to wear all three sizes with similar results and very minimal ... if any issues. I am even and was able to fill out most of the top in all of them, there is more space there for those FOT who may need it. If they were less open up top and came in 28 bands they it would fit me much better, I was still able to get a nice naturally rounded shape from them regardless.

It is worth mentioning that the upper portion is not stretch lace (it IS stretchy though), but embroidered mesh similar to Panache Harmony that is difficult to lay flat unless your are FOT. This mesh is very much see-through, and depending on the size and placement of your areolas they may be at least partially visible through the top. The underwires wires on these aren't quite long enough to fill the channels, so they do slide back and forth in there . The side slings I suppose are there to stabilize the seamless cups. I'm not sure how affective they are, but it does gape when I bend at certain angles. This doesn't alter the functionality of the bra but some may find this bothersome.

The fabric feels smooth and extremely comfortable, the straps and wires feel like nothing when worn, same with the seamless cups. To me, this is an ideal bra for when you don't want or need a very firm band or heavy duty support, just something comfortable to wear and forget. The cups are deep and can accommodate projected shapes, however they do run large and I would suggest sizing down in both the band as well as the cup if you would like a more accurate fit.

Out of the three, the largest one 30GG is my best, albeit imperfect fit. Typically 30GG is my preferred size for minimizer bras but there is no minimizing effect from this one as it has too much give. For a sleep/lounge bra this is fine, for other times I prefer a smaller band, firmer material and better support.

My shape: full on bottom, soft tissue, narrow shoulders/roots.
Special thanks to MamaPagan for sending me this bra (and many others!) to try on!
Appearance: BRIGHT purple! This is a really pretty shade of straight up purple; I've never owned a bra this color before! Made of stretchy fabric, it has this side sling contraption on the outside of each cup that goes from the armpit all the way up to about the halfway point of the strap.. The top of the cups are made of stretchy purple mesh with embroidered leaf designs.
Fit: This doesn't offer the support I have come to love that my Ewa bras have, which ... isn't a surprise, given that this has no cup seams. The stretchy fabric allowed for lots of projection, though.
The biggest problem I had with this bra was the straps, but not my usual, "wah wah these are sooo wide!" The strap PLACEMENT was fine, but they were way too short. Since they only allow for adjustments halfway up the strap, I had them as long as they would go, and I still had the cups wedged into my armpit. I wasn't sure I would be able to put the bra on! If the fabric wasn't so smooth and silky, it would be seriously uncomfortable from the get-go.

Glamour 32G
I am adding this bra for data/informational purposes only. This Bra is not owned by me at the time of addition to the database.
The Glamour was a purple nylon bra with lace tops. It had 2 horizontal sections to the cups, plus a crescent sling area that is connected to the outer section of the cups for support.

The band measured 25.5” to a max of 36.5” and had 3 hooks with 3 rows of eye loops.

Cup Depth as measured by:
1 Hovering the cup between the knees, then placing the tape measure into the cups without any resistance.
This measurement is: 11”

2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 13”

I feel these two figures give you a general idea of the minimum and maximum depth that the cup can accommodate, just like the flat and stretched band measurements do with bands.
