    Hasn't set fit

    Errata: I purchased this bra in November and not April 2018.

    Aldi tried to introduce Esmara, a custom brand for it's lingerie products. Which resulted in a full blown train wreck. Cheaply stitched potentially self destroying bras, shapeless cotton/elastic blends, one word, terrible.

    Got this one as an experiental imulsive purchase. Yep, too small, better don't talk fitting. Yet, somehow it managed, surprising for the circumstances.

    The overall quality is a complete departure from the brand's original status. It's actually a pretty good "el cheapo" item with relatively good materials. Quite sturdy indeed.

    Straps do not fall even with an outrageous extender. Side panels collapse pretty quickly, notmal given the size mismatch.

    My ... very first attempt at molded cups. A disaster indeed. OK, it feels warm and smehow cozy. However not a match to sheer/soft cups. For real. My girls feel like isolated, zero perceptions, sort of under anesthetic. Kind of sleepy, just there and that's it.

    Which, even with a good fit, would I'm affraid result in a very low from the lowest "bra factor". Kind of anihilated chest department.

    Back then I wrote this:

    Can't figure the purpose of molded cups...

    However let's be fair. A good vlue for the money, actually quite good quality, guess a proper fitting would satisfy those who go for molded cups.

      Oh, the allure of molded cups-smooth seamless "perfect" symmetrical shaped breasts held at the same blissful level without even a hint of nipple show through. 💕

      Yet, unless you have the optimal shape/squish factor, they do not work.

      Been there, done that. Didn't work for me either.

      Don't work for me either. Hate them. Ill let my nipples show anyday. Loud and proud..

      But before my surgery...omg...they were my saving grace. Padded moulded cups and then add cookies too and you have big, even round breasts. Until you take the bra off. It was false advertising at its finest lol

      They're good for shallow breasts though...

      It does look surprisingly sturdy. Do they not go above E cup though? I think you'd need to go up at least 3 cup sizes to judge. I'm not sure if your comment about feeling "anesthetized" is more of a metaphor (given the isolation-material-style padded cups) or if you actually feel numb when wearing it? If the latter, I suspect this is a consequence of excessive compression, and likely is not good for you!

    • Well wendybien Dear... Right, sturdy, I was surprised by the quality, a total departure from the brand's usual craptacular bras. But this is ALDI, they launch series, sell them and might never restock the same.

      Never seen any ALDI bra above E cup. They cather for statistically the most. Severe marketing rules. If you like it, get it and live with. Zero customer service.

      A strap fails (happened with my other Esmara bra..) ? Sign here, this is your refund, no questions asked, no replacement provided, no time to waste with you, sorry. All with a smile.

      What happens when you sell bras between cordless drills and canned tomatoes.

      Right isolated. Sure it is severely undersized. This is a huge numbing factor. But what I meant is that there's ZERO perception of the outside world.

      Like what deprivation cocoon could be ? I mean, like 4 example, even the safety belt in my car feels distant. I sort of felt disoriented.

      However.... Recently I discovered ELILA and reviewed the absolutely fabulous fantastic stupendously feminine 1303 model. The top of the top.

      The brand has a very strong commitment to engineered bras. And I'm about to place an order. So I might as well include one of their molded models.

      Properly sized and, well, ELILA quality. So this might be the game changer.

      However the bra industry has some dirty secrets. Like what I rant a bit more technically about in my blog, here:
      https://femineaaeterna.blogspot.com/2019/02/do-you-hate-your-bra-heres-why.html

      In any case I'll post as soon as my cah goes into another molded bra.

      What I'll be delighted to get is a molded "cup-cake" 1/2 or 3/4 shelve bra with rebar like underwires, sturdy deep side panels, industry grade gore, wide and set apart straps, at least 4 hooks.

      The kind of secret weapon of mass seduction unobtrusively concealed under a sheer blouse and baggy pull and "wow" otherwise.

      Thanks for your suggestion, have a fantastic day,

      Mathy
