In short, this bra fits like a super-narrow 36HH.
I was really curious to try Dalia, because their designs are absolutely gorgeous! There isn't too much data about their bras here on Bratabase, especially in my size range (36GG-ish). Since one review said the cups ran small, I sized up and ordered two bras (one padded, one semi-soft) and hoped for the best. None of the bras fit, so I'll send them back next week, but if anyone is interested in buying them instead, send me a message https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
The process of ordering is a bit of a hassle, as the website ... and all the emails regarding the order are in Polish. They also don't accept PayPal but they have a separate system where you pay by credit card (but not during the usual checkout, only after placing the order). It's a bit confusing to be honest and not really made with international customers in mind, although they do have international delivery. However, I can't complain, it was overall smooth and I received the bras less than two weeks later.
First off, I found it nice that the bras came each in a carton box, and the two boxed fit perfectly in the box the order was delivered in.
The bra itself - the design looks really good in real life. The materials are soft, and I like the piece of transparent lace on the band between the cup and the side boning. I also like that the material on the band has the same pattern as the cups.
Regarding the construction, the cup is made from five separate parts, four to give depth and one on the top. The cup is padded but the material itself is thin so it wouldn't add bulk. The cups are quite high, so are the gore and wings. The wire is similar to EM bras, being U-shaped, with quite a bit of height where the wire is practically vertical. This also means that the gore stays narrow for quite a bit of its height. The wire is also quite firm. The band is made from two layers of material, with an inner layer of stretchy mesh and the outer layer of the same material as on the cups. The bra has side boning.
Regarding the fit, the first thing I noticed is just how narrow the wires are for this cup depth - 15.5cm cup width and the depth is 34.4cm! The cups are deep and they look like they'll give a very rounded profile. The band feels true to size.
