BM Rubin 60KK
BM Rubin is a fuller coverage, full lace unpadded bra with stretch lace on the upper section. The cups are the typical 3 sections-2 lower and one upper horizontal area, plus it has an outer wedge area that connects the cups to the straps securely. The color is classified as Ruby Red on Ewa’s site, though I’d call it more of a Berry Pinkish-Red than a Ruby. The backing on the cups is black. The band is the same berry color in opaque tulle, but is lined with black tulle for more support.
All measurements are taken prior to trying the bra on to ... insure no figure is obscured by the body. I also take all flat measurements before taking the stretched cup then band measurements for the same reason.
The band measures 22.25” and stretches to a max of 27.5”. It has 3 hooks and 4 rows of eye loops. The band has more tension than usual due to it being double tulle lined, which is nice.
Cup Depth as measured by:
1 Hovering the cup between the knees, then placing the tape measure into the cups without any resistance.
This measurement is: 12.5”
2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 15.5”
I feel these two figures give you a general idea of the minimum and maximum depth that the cup can accommodate, just like the flat and stretched band measurements do with bands. Since Bratabase only has one cup field, I enter the larger of the two, as it’s this larger number that determines if a cup is going to fit me or not since I am on the max end of the cup scale, but do realize that some may need the lower number to determine fit for their needs, so I will always include both figures in the reviews for full disclosure.
As for fit, the band is wonderful! It is super comfortable on the 2nd from tightest setting. The cups are a full fit with the gore being 1.5 fingers off the sternum which isn’t bad for me.

So how does the stretch lace upper work when it is lined with the black tulle? Wouldn't the tulle anchor the stretch somehow? Thanks!
