This refers to the white colourway.
I own the Dalia Olimpia in black and beige, and find it a comfortable everyday bra. The main flaws of this bra model are that the band stretches out quickly and the straps are not fully adjustable. Also it is rather boring to look at, but it is quite cheap and comfortable.

This bra looks fairly nice but was exceedingly uncomfortable, but I think it may have been defective so my experience should not guide your decision. I have found that Dalia bras run a fairly high rate of defects in general. The high defect rate is probably a consequence of the cheap manufacture and a risk when buying a cheap bra. This is perhaps a consideration when shipping costs are involved, or bras cannot be returned, but it isn't really something that should put you off Dalia if you can try it on.
The specific issue with this bra was that it felt like there was a ... lump, or maybe a bump in the wire in the middle under the left breast. Later examination of the underwire when I was not wearing it did not reveal any obvious distortion, although there is a seam at exactly that point, where some thicker lace is attached. The right cup has the same seam, however, and does not feel off, so I'm not sure what the actual cause is. It just pressed into my ribs quite painfully at that one point.
I have found that the Dalia soft bras don't tack as well as the semi-soft bras on me. Both have slightly too wide gores for me, but the semi-soft has more power to tack. So the gore was another issue for me with this bra.
The straps are semi-adjustable.

The fit of the top is similar to most Dalia pieces. The bottoms, like other swimwear, run smaller than the size chart suggests. Size up one size for the bottoms.

I'm glad my comments were useful to you. I've used http://biustyna.pl and http://www.twojabielizna.pl for Dalia in the past, although I am in Europe so I do not know if they would ship to the US. I've also asked Polish people to order for me, but that is not optimal as the items can't be returned once they've gone through being re-sent.
Oodles of thanks!
Of all the bra in my recent order, this is my favourite. It's a little bit too small, but I'd say the sizing is similar to the Olimpia; a 75I would have been too large for me.
There's some variability with size between different bras. This (75H) was a little too small, while the Grace (75I) was a tiny bit too large, the Audrey (75I) was spot on, and the Olimpia (75I) was far too big for me.
Dalia bras are loose in the band by Polish standards, and I found the 75 quite comfortable; I usually wear a 34 but often go to a 36 with brands like Panache.
The British sizing on the label is complete rubbish, of course. It's effectively a 34GG, not a 34H.
The straps have some nice detailing which helps keep the adjuster from sliding. They are only half adjustable, however.

Hey Aaa, I have previously commented on your review of Dalia's Olympia. Your recommendation of @Panache worked out - THANK YOU! Jasmine and Sculptress Chi chi have made my top 5 bras.
However I still enjoy my @Gorsenia and @Alles and am dying to try dalia K27 models for its unique construction. Emailing the Dalia web store in English OR in Polish did not get a response. I haven't been able to find any vendors who ship to the US (California). Do you happen to know any online vendors or Bratabase users who would be willing to fulfill an order of 3-4 bras from Dalia? ANY HELP APPRECIATED! Thank you!
