I fell in love with the look of this bra with the heavy straps and the cut out pattern dominating those straps, cups, and band. Once alterations are done to fit me, I think that I will be pleased with the appearance. The quality of the hardware could be better, the mesh is a bit rough on the skin - perhaps with washing it will improve. Also the band is too stretchy - reasonable band length stretches out to 34 inches so size down if you are interested. This stretchiness runs into the straps as well. I am not sure that this bra ... would be suitable for women with any weight to their breasts. Overall glad that I got to try this brand for only $20 without ending up having to pay courier fees. I would not recommend international shipping from Bluebella itself as courier fees will run an additional $20 on top of purchase and shipping.
Post Alterations. I have put in a grey cup so the bra now matches some black and grey undies I have. I also sewed on some elastic to the band to restrict the stretchiness instead of shortening the band. I am correct in that I love the look of the bra. THe wider straps balance out my shape nicely. A big win for all the hassel of shipping and alterations. Do note that the quality of the elastic is even poorer then initially thought. Unless you are willing to reinforce the straps, I cannot see how this could be a worthwhile bra. Downgraded quality to poor. I do not think that I wold ever buy another Bluebella bra because of the low quality.
Post repairs. My puppy chewed the strap after being left alone for 30 seconds (or so it seemed. The strap is now mended and looks okay. I am sad.
