The short summary is that this bikini is very narrow, very projeted and the colours are lovely and bright! It doesn't work for my shape, but I would recommend it for the someone who needs more projection, especially in the middle of the cup, and who likes EM-style wires.

Regarding the construction, the cups are made of five parts, four ensuring the lots of cup projection, one on the top. The band is made from one layer of fabric and it closes with a metal clip - which I find sturdier than plastic ones. The wires are narrow and quite hard and quite tall - overall similar to EM. ...

The materials look like they're good quality, but since I'm not keeping it I can't judge how well they survive in the long run. The colours are very bright, the blue is a strong royal blue and the pink is definitely on the neon side.

I also tried the unpadded version of this bra in the same size and I found it to be more minimising / less projected - my bust perimeter while wearing it is almost 5cm smaller than for the padded version.

The sizing for these two bras is consistent and the band is true to size. Regarding sizing, my go-to size is a 36GG UK / 80L in Comexim. This bikini fits a bit big for me, so I'd say it's closer to a 36H.

Review edited to add some information about the matching bottoms, which run small. I got the mini brief in a size M, which measures flat (only the fabric, not the ties) 31cm waist and the height is 22.5cm. I also tried the maxi brief in XXL, which measures flat 39cm waist, 29cm height.

This bikini is very narrow, projeted and the colours and knit pattern are lovely and bright.

Regarding the construction, the cups are made of three parts, in a balconette construction. The two bottom parts are lined with a non stretch fabric, while the top part is stretchy. The band is made from two layers of fabric and it closes with a metal clip - which I find sturdier than plastic ones. The wires are narrow and quite hard and quite tall - overall similar to EM.

The materials look like they're good quality, but I can't judge how well they survive in the long run since the bikini ... is new. The colours are very bright, the blue is a strong royal blue and the pink is definitely on the neon side.

I also tried the padded version of this bikini in the same size (Julia Big) and I found it to be more projected - my bust perimeter while wearing it is ~4cm larger than for the unpadded version.

The sizing for these two bikinis is consistent and the band is true to size. Regarding sizing, my go-to size is a 36GG UK / 80L in Comexim. I wouldn't necessarily say that the padded version fits larger, but the unpadded one is a bit more size forgiving, because the top section is stretchy.

The matching bottoms run small. I got the mini brief in a size M, which measures flat (only the fabric, not the ties) 31cm waist and the height is 22.5cm. I also tried the maxi brief in XXL, which measures flat 39cm waist, 29cm height.
