    PROS:
    - about the only t-shirt friendly bra for H+ boobs
    - satin fabric allows fabrics to skim over and not cling
    - a good colour for a nude, though I'd still prefer a blush
    - nice deep centre front is great for lower necklines
    - pretty comfortable (except straps for my narrow shoulders)
    CONS:
    - I don't seem to fill the bottoms (puckering) and bottom seems to slide down onto ribcage, yet have overflow/quadboob at top.
    - stretches relatively quickly
    - straps sit too wide for my narrow shoulders, issues with sliding off
    - straps themselves are also slightly wide for my preference, makes it easier to slide off

    I was extremely pleasantly surprised by this bra. I recommend it for similar shapes (close set, deep) . It's not perfect but it is a very good staple.

    I do like this bra, but the plunge style doesn't work too well for me.

    I found this bra gave me a very smooshed shape, and I'm too new at understanding bras to know why. The wires are quite wide, which I found quite comfortable, but I think the cups themselves just didn't have enough projection for me.

    This is an incredibly comfortable bra, but I'm unsure whether I have the right size for me.
    I usually have troll with my boobs being able to fill the bottom of a cup so it was a nice surprise when this bra just about managed to do so. The straps are also sturdy without digging into my shoulders and the underwiring is the perfect width for my boobs, which are more to the side.
    The few small problems are that the top of the middle underwiring doesn't quite lay flat against my sternum. The cup on my smaller (only marginally smaller) right breast also looks a little wrinkled. I also had to hook this on the middle hook straight away.

    32HH

    Didn't fit

    I was suggested this bra during a fit request, and took a chance when someone was selling it on here. (thanks Nesoa !) This bra is SO comfy. It's the first one I grab when getting dressed for work or errands. I can hook it, but prefer it with an extender. The straps are nice and wide, but completely elastic. I will probably end up sewing them shorter when they stretch out too much.

    28HH

    Didn't fit

    This bra fit me, but a design flaw (in my opinion, since the reviews I've read so far don't mention it) caused the bottom to make my boobs look square. I'm not sure how that happened, but let's just say it's not compatible with my shape. I hadn't tried it on since it first came, but my tissue has changed and now I majorly quadboob over the top of the cups. It's a gorgeous bra, and I love the color. I'm really sad that it doesn't work for me/is too small.

  8. Moulin Rose (AU24)

    Nice round shape. The side seam cuts in a little bit and causes a weird sort of gapping effect, but for me it's only slightly.

    32H

    Didn't fit

    This bra is very comfortable and has plenty of projection, I fill out the cups completely with minimal wrinkling. There is a few wrinkles in the bottom of the cup where I have a bit of trouble filling, but I expect this to go away over time.

    The band is comfortable on the loosest hook, I expect this bra to stretch out over time, so start on the last hook and work your way tighter.

    The center gore is very close set, so this works well for me. The underwire width is what I would consider on the narrower side of average.

    The print is absolutely wonderful. I love the watercolor effect with the embroidered lace. It's a peachy pink more than rose pink, maybe a bit less orange than a coral.

    The only con so far is that the trim along the bottom of the cup wants to roll in. That's to be expected however, as it's hard to keep it straight without adjustment.

    Cute top. Just bought it expecting to be this size while nursing but I never filled it.

    While the band is really snug, it's not uncomfortable. The gore is a bit high and the wires go all the way to my back. It's a beautiful bra, but I don't fill the top of the cups.

    The colour and design of this bra is gorgeous.
    I get quadraboob, so probably need a cup up, plus I think my boobs need an ever so slightly more projected cup. Otherwise it was comfortable.

    Bravissimo plunges, vol III. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Well, it seems that Bravissimo suffers of the Eveden-syndrome, in other words there's a noticiable measurement gap when the band size moves from "petite" (30 and below) to regular and the cup size from large (below HH) to really voluptuous (J and up). I have this same bra in 32HH and the difference in cup size is quite significant.
    First of all, the J cup is much wider, the underwires reach a lot farther towards my back under my arms. Fortunately there's depth in the cup profile, so the wires don't dig in at all. Also, the ... lowest part of the cup is weirdly flat, which means that a dense breast like mine won't settle into the very bottom of the cup but leaves a half an inch empty space, which then creases a bit. A visual problem, the bra is very comfortable to wear.
    Pros:
    - pretty, summery style
    - soft material
    - a true plunge shape without the EM or Freya Deco-style vavoom lift
    - sturdy band
    - soft, wide straps

    Cons:
    - cup is quite wide in J cup

    38H

    Didn't fit

    I love it. It's narrow enough for me but I think that for better results I would need the centre how to be more separated.
    I had to size up the cups as on my 38GG made a very light quadraboob, but the 38H is better. When I just put it and after swoop and scoop it's a little big, but after a while the lace sit on my breasts nicely.
    It's a very good option for an everyday bra.

  16. Satine Bra (AU15)

    Pretty comfy bra. I have the blue and black Satine, and this one in "nude" fits just a little bit differently than them. The edge cuts into my armpit just a little.
    But as far as actually functioning like a bra, this does a good job.

    Super comfy bra. Fits just like my black Satine, but in this wonderful blue colour. I like it a lot!

    The cups were too far apart for my non-separated boobs! I was hoping it would work for me because it is a plunge bra with a more secure top, but my ladies were still falling into the middle.

    Also, I didn't fill out the bottom of the cup, so there was wrinkling, and the bottom inch or so of material lay flat against my sternum instead of holding my breast tissue (weird much?!). I don't know what they were thinking because the bottom of the cup is absolutely not deep enough.

    The wire height was good, though, and the band was true to size for me. I wish this bra would fit me! It's so pretty. It would probably work for someone with more separation and whose breasts aren't full. Mine are like balloons, so super full...it didn't work out.

    Fits

    Fits really well. The wires do not dig into my ribs under my breasts. The wires might dig slightly into my sternum, but it's only noticeable in certain positions. The tops of the cups are not too loose or too tight--even if I thrust my chest out I don't get quadraboob. Right out of the box I can wear the band on its tightest hooks comfortably, though. I wonder if I should have gone up a band size.

    The cups are slightly too big--they're not filled completely at the top. The straps attach to the bra too far to the side--they dig into the side of my armpit. The band can be fastened comfortably on the tightest hooks.
