So I was the lucky one inheriting the Braologie bra Vee reviewed here: http://www.bratabase.com/blog/2013/jan/27/insight-the-braologie-bra-207/
I can just say that this is a totally different construction of bra and it works far better on my boobs than any other of the 100 bras I've tried the last six months.
This is the first bra that actually covers my root. No gaping, no cutting in, and the breast fat left in the armpit is so slight I cannot even count it. This is the first bra that actually does reach around all that breast fat around my armpits and back and brings it UP! Yes UP on my chest, ... hey full on top super high on chest boobs finally in the right position!
Ok, so yes no center gore flat, boobs touching in the middle, do I care? Hell no! I think this is the absolute best way to fit boobs like mine. I don't have any natural separation so why should I force a pair of wires in there anyway? I certainly don't need them for support.
So the bra is pointy. In some clothing it's too much for me and I'm already discussing with myself how this bra would need to be altered to fit me.
No worries; I'm not going to try any alteration on this bra, I'm simply thinking about copying the construction and make a less pointy shape.
Under my BiuBiu Portimao 44B/BB it looks too torpedoish for me. In one of my old empire dresses that I hadn't been able to wear for ages it just looks perfect. Maybe that dress is shallower than the BiuBiu top, it would make sense.
So this is a bra that I wouldn't wear under everyday clothing. It's a cleavage bra. Noone would think about the pointy shape with that cleavage level anyway. It's the butt crack level of cleavage as seen at Obsessed with breasts. http://obsessedwithbreasts.wordpress.com/2012/12/05/cleavage-concerns/
I wear the bra with the extender that followed with it. It measures 74cm unstretched. Apart from my heartburn condition I would say this is a perfect band for me. I can breath and move and I have a lot of support.
The band is a little too tight on the upper of the 4 hooks, but nothing I cannot live with since there are no wires that distorts their way into my chest bone.
So I will keep this bra, I will use it, both as a migration bra and a cleavage bra. But under a top not showing cleavage I really do want something that flattens me a little bit more. I am pretty sure I could easily flatten this bra out and get the typical orb shape. I tried flattening it with my hands. Very impressive indeed https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />
So for boobs like mine that are mostly just wide rooted and rather small this kind of bra is magic. Since the wires are so weak there's no wires on breast tissue even if there is. The boning, and the wide band is doing the job of lifting.
I will update my review when I'm well enough to wear the bra for more than one hour, but so far I actually do think it's the closest to a well fitting bra I've had. Actually apart from the pointyness I'd say it fits a little equal to my 34GG center pull straps altered Tease Me. It also was far from having the center gore flat and the boobs were touching in the middle, however the bra couldn't hold itself up. The braologie bra is far superior on that level!
Edit: I hadn't even noticed the fact that I'm wearing the bras with the pads! I had no idea. No wonder I get cleavage https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />
Update: I have now been wearing this bra for about five hours or so. Yes I do have a heartburn, but it's really nothing serious. Since the bra presses equally on my sternum and is firm I'm not trouble by the tight band. I've been able to do some more scoping which ended me up with quadboob in the middle of my larger boob. Doesn't matter, I can just take the pad out of that cup if I want to.
Everything in this bra stays in place, it's so comfortable.
Oh and I've come to the conclusion the shape I have is the same shape XLHourglass has in Ewa PL bras. It's not up my alley but I'm trying to get used to it.
Update 23 February after wearing the bra for a week. Since realising all fat on top of my body easily is placed on my boobs I have scoped and swooped myself into it I have now removed the pads and the bra is now still too small but again more comfortable.
