~70J/32G ~65K/30GG, projected, bottom and center full, tall roots, avarage root width, soft tissue ----- The shape/cut of the Cups is a 10/10, it's perfect, at least when I use the J-Hooks, it's okay but a little too seperated without the racer-back. This bra really made me realize how the racer-back option improves the fit and support of any bra for me, it even looks better to me. The style of this bra is a clear "meh" to me, I don't love the dotty detail on the top of the cup, but I do love love love the deep blue colorway. The real issue with this bra is the wire, yet again. the fabric creases at the wire and the wire slides down and then sits about 2cm under IMF.
Is the wire actually uncomfortable, or is it just that you're noticing it's not in the usual place? If it causes no discomfort I would not worry about it. The fact that the shape is good for you is very encouraging. You might also check out alisa 's numerous reviews of Bravissimo, in this size range they also have taller-than-average cups.
I think the dots are darling! multiple shades of blue are so pretty together.
Sadly it's uncomfortable, and it get's increasingly uncomfy while wearing it, if I wear it for a day it leaves thick red marks exactly 2cm under imf. At this point the wire really is my fit issue nr.1, it's always the damn wire! Well, I got the Panache non-wired sports bra last week in 30G and it fits and is a clear improvement to what I was wearing before so I'm gonna life in it for now haha
Oh interesting - I always assumed Elomi's size range started at ~34 band! Also I didn't realize / never looked into their cupsize chart apparently.. so it's nice to see they offer sizes like 70J which would possibly fit me as well.
The deep blue color is great indeed - thanks for reviewing!
bubblegum they expanded the range to 32s pretty recently, in the last couple of years or so I think. Until then, you recall correctly, they started at 34. They are known for rather wide and tall wires due to their target market being the plus/full bust range rather than just full bust--but not everyone needs the narrow Polish wires so for some people this is a very good thing!
Is this a UK 32J or a EU 70J ? I just ask because I find that the measuements of cup depth are quite small for an UK 32J. I have one of these on it's way to me too. It's a very pretty color. I'm happy that Elomi does 32 bands now.
EU 70J, so according to the conversion chart I'm looking at a UK 32G. Yep, I'm happy they offer 32s now, even tho it's not a perfect fit - I haven't found a perfect comfortable fit yet and I'm not sure If I ever will, but if I had to wear any bra I'd probably go with an Elomi Plunge now
If it's a UK 32G you should add it here as a 32G not a 32J. I have a UK32J of this bra on it's way and it's labelled as a EU 70M. We add bras here in UK sizing if that is the main sizing a brand uses.
Ohh wait I thought I added it as a 70J, sorry :/

Update: I DID add it as „70J“, the size „32J“ was automatically added somehow but obviously a EU J is not a UK J! Tried to correct it and add the actuall UK size
I really wanted this bra to work. Unfortunately it’s a bit big all around. The bra cup consists of a very sturdy non stretch mesh on the lower cup with a beautifully, but simple, upper cup. The construction of the three piece lower cup and one piece upper cup make for a wonderful shape. Very natural looking. Despite the cups being too wide for my narrower roots, this does not dig into the armpits! There are silver rings that attach the elastic straps to the cup with the hardware on the back matching the color of the bra. There are three columns and two rows of hooks on the back band.
I have the exact same bra (except for size 32GG UK) I bought over a year ago on eBay, I was disappointed with it.
I found it to be a shape mismatch for my close-set boobs. My natural shape was fighting against the cup shape, plus the wide gore dug into my larger breast. I also found the texture of the fabric - the mesh cups - to be uncomfortable. Mesh cups are big no for me, I have sensitive skin, so I will stick with Polish brands like Ewa Michalak and Comexim for their superior fabrics!
It's my understanding that Elomi only fits a very specific shape, and most women/bra wearers are not that shape. It's discussed on this bra blog ComfyCurvy https://comfycurvy.blogspot.com/search/label/Elomi
Yes they fit a specific shape, imo tall - wide root and sligtly wide set shallow boobs. In large cups I really liked the sturdy materials and the support. I think that's why they are so popular. Above a certain size there is not much choice in bras but wearing a supportive bra is a must to prevent back pain.
I have wide and tall roots for my size (34G) so they are not bad but the wide gore does really bother me. I am still searching for a non-padded bra that fits my shape.
