• OMG so sorry that it was such failure for you. Also ... "I am not that tall, 175cm." Ehm so here average womens height is 164cm - so I'd consider 10cm over average kinda tall, could be different in your country?
  I personally feel neither tall or short at 169cm even though I'm technially above average. Sorry I nitpick here.
  But yes it's sad that the bra is not made for taller women. Same problem as it with Ewa straps. I hope they will make the newer styles with adjustable strap. you should give them feedback, so they take notes.
  It looks kinda good though - a shame it's so uncomfortable. I have Zara which is similar to this - also it's band is sooo soft and does not much- it rides up so bad for me in a 34 band - cups are on the smaller side but because of that they keep my boobs close to chest and give some support. I only wear mine to sleep or when I only lounge around 1-2 hour before bedtime. Cannot stand more. Straps also dig in badly on me.

  175cm is still very basic height like, it's not "that" tall in the sense that, I'm not abnormally tall! I don't even see how this would fit someone who is 165cm either :P i think maybe 155 cm is okay if they are in my size range haha.

  Ok, it took me a while to think whether I should comment or not.
  While I understand they you’re frustrated that the bra didn’t work for you I think you’ve been to harsh with the review and will discourage many girls here from buying it.
  Bravissimo did amazing job with both Zara and Flora. No other brand can provide supportive and comfy bralette for boobs larger that F and I’ll be recommending them whenever possible. myself I’m 30FF and ditched all other non wired bras and bought like 10 Zara’s and one Flora (just waiting on another colour). The bra is well designed and while maybe it’s not YET suitable for some ladies in hh-j range it certainly does amazing job up to H I’d say based on tons of reviews saying that. Panache or Freya suck, not to mention all other brands. I’ve tried their bras (still have the Freya Wild but never worn it yet for past three months as I always go for Zara instead). It’s hard to get a decent one that will not spread boobs all over your chest and you can actually go out wearing it plus it looks nice.
  I also does not agree about the band. Zara has looser one while Flora uses thicker lace so less stretch in it but certainly there is a support from the band. I wonder if you got a faulty one maybe? Coz mine ticks all boxes that bralette should have.

  I really like that Bravissimo listens to customers. They have expanded the size range of many popular bras like Satine or Arla this year. I hope something like that is in the making for bralettes too. I like my Zara but it has it's issues and actually would need 32JJ/K for better fit. But it's better than any other bralette I tried so far.
  alidieux Let Bravissimo know that you prefer adjustable straps on your bralettes and larger size range?
  I will e-mail them again and ask for size expansion. We need to tell them there is demand for that.

  Also have to add I only wear my Zara 1-2 hours before bet time to lounge or to actually sleep in. There would be too much weight on the straps to wear longer - There needs to be a stronger band / cup construction in larger size to give more breast support and keep some weight off from straps. So I actually prefer they make a new model with improved stronger fabric, call it super bralette and have HH-L cup sizes. They sell like hot cakes I'm sure.

  Well there's quite the difference between someone who wear 30FF and 34JJ the support and whatever they will get from a bra like this.

  My review is for my size, I do not comment on how this works for smaller cup bodies because just like any other bra, they fit very differently.

  Personally, I think this is a HUGE fail for my size range. The band needs some sort of supportive part, it's just lace there, there's no sturdier part of it which is also why my boobs escape in the bottom of it (paired with too short straps). It needs to have something like Arla does, even if it's hidden behind the lace on the front, that would help a lot. But the biggest issue with this bra is the straps. I think in this day and age they have no excuse for not including adjustable straps. Every comment on their instagram about these bralettes is basically about adjustable straps.

  I think we're both entitled to our experiences with this bra and any other bra. Maybe it's harsh but I'm not gonna sugar coat it because I did have a really terrible experience with this bra and no bra will work for every size, so I think others who are in my size range and height should be aware that this probably won't work for them.

• In my return/exchange email I provided feedback about this aswell, with adjustable straps and bigger sizes and the flimsy band.

  I am getting the Bravissimo Sara bra which has underwires but I think it'll be comfortable enough for being home because it's a microfibre fabric triangle/plunge style.

  I also wear and enjoy my Fantasie bralette. I wear it to the store and stuff, it's great! I wish it came in a little bigger cup then it would be perfect but it's still miles better than this Flora bralette.

  I tried on my Bravissimo Sleep bra again aswell and I think one of the issues I'm having with Bravissimo is that they're trying to smoosh my boobs close to my chest aswell, they're not very projected bralettes. If I loosen the straps on that one, the band part rolls on itself (from the top side down, not the underside). However it's also better than flora because it does have a more supportive band.

• alidieux Yeah I get you’re claiming it’s a fail for a large size but then you said at the end the bra is probably gonna work for someone who is 30DD and very short. if I would’ve never tried these bralettes, based on your review especially seeing that last sentence it would totally put me off buying it .
  So in my comment I’ve tried to correct that the bra does work for boobs larger than 30DD
