I only tried this bra on for a few minutes so might have missed some details about the fit. However, from my quick assessment of this bra the wires were surprisingly narrow. Despite the narrow wires the cups were quite shallow and I would say this fits more like a 30F than the 30FF it is supposed to be equivalent to in UK sizing. There wasn't enough depth at the centre gore for me, nor enough immediate projection at the wire. Also this is one of the first bras I've encountered with wings tall enough under the arms to poke a bit, so if you're high set this probably isn't for you. The band was nice and firm for a 30 though being a longline probably helps with it feeling secure.
I probably would have considered buying this if it came in a cup size up - its a very pretty bra and nice longlines in extended sizing are not all too common.
Very dark blue with a pale lemon lining. Yellow looks awful on me, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that once on my skin the lining is light and sheer enough to look like skin. Gore doesn't quite tack but apart from that, it's a great fit.
The color of this is sooo pretty. And the shape fits me like a glove! The straps are half-adjustable but they're short enough for me--tall girls beware. The fabric is soft and comfy and I love that the band curves up in the center.
Like other Evollove bras I've tried, this has half adjustable straps. All the other ones adjust short enough for me but this one does not. A strap saver solves that easily though. The band is very firm, not very stretchy at all. It fits fine but I have to fasten it in the front and turn it around.
This is a lovely bra, the first longline that I find easy to hook up! The cups are lined four part cups and give a slightly east/west appearance, I do wish they had an internal sling for support as this is not my favorite look. The band does not ride up or roll, but as is the case in all longlines I fear they will warp with wear, though they are stronger than the ones used by Parfait/Adore Me. The straps are currently pinned to length as they do not adjust short enough for me, I will sew them eventually, and I wish they were thicker as thin straps tend to dig in a bit. The lace and mesh fabric is lovely and comfortable to wear.
The appearance is great-- cute pattern, cute bows, cute cute cute! Unfortunately the cup is too small for me, and the corner of the band is rather itchy. The straps have the same issues as several of the other Evollove bras I've reviewed, being stiff and almost 'sharp' on the edges. Both of these issues would probably be resolved with washing and wear.
It's super pretty-- I love the aqua green color so much! However, it just isn't very comfortable. The corner of the band was so itchy I didn't want to keep it on long enough to check the fit. This might get better with wash/wear, but beware if you have sensitive skin! The cups were much too small for me, and I'm getting the impression that Evollove bras might run a little small in the cup.
This is one of the prettiest bras I've tried on. I love the print (sort of a leopard print with overlaid flowers) and the color (gorgeous shade of purple), and the thick lace along the top is very pretty. The bra is padded and very smooth inside the cup. The straps dig in a bit-- they're stiff and almost 'sharp' along the edges, but they are long enough for me. Comfort wise, the fit is off enough that I can't tell with much accuracy. However, the corners of the strap in the back (by the hooks) are very scratchy!
Fit very well with a very supportive and comfortable inner support sling, except the straps were set so wide they were almost in my armpits and very uncomfortable.
Not supportive at all, very flimsy construction. I bought it in Princess Blue, and while the color on the website looked pretty, in real life it seemed very childish looking.
First of all let me say that Evollove's Lost Love Balconnet Bra is one pretty lady. When I opened up the parcel I practically squeeled. She's sheer lace in the front of the band and sheer mesh in the back of the band with molded cups covered in the same lace with a satin tuxedo stripe at the top of the cups. The straps are done in the same satin and are soft on the shoulders. This is a very comfortable bra to wear and looks great under clothes, but I have to admit she doesn't wear that well. Wearing the Lost Love under dark clothes a few ...times has already give her a bit of a dark rub under the arms and a few loose, frayed threads. Also, while the band seemed true to size when I first put her on, this changed within a week and she now rides up a little in the back and her center gore never quite sat flat on my chest, though it came close. Keep in mind that I'm in between band sizes with a 29 inch underbust and I'd size down in the band, but unfortunately, that would size me out of the range as a 30 band and G cup is the smallest band and biggest cup Evollove does. This is compounded by the fact that I get slight quad-boob when I put my shoulders back, which is more because of my body shape as opposed to faulty bra construction but it certainly does mean I can't size down in the cup. All in all, this is one of those bras that going to have me keeping my fingers crossed for an expanded size range from Evollove. Read more 179 more words
Would you so kindly care to measure the bra? It would be extremely helpful and I'd be so appreciative :) Evollove is new to me and I really like this particular bra but I don't know if it'll suit me. How are the wires like? Wide/narrow? Anything really that could help me understand what this bra is like!
