SF Blueberry 60KK
SF Blueberry is an unpadded bra stiffened for support. The color is a navy blue lace over black, and the cups come in the 4 sections-3 lower sections with two vertical seams, and the upper stretch lace horizontal area, plus an outer wedge that connects the straps to the cups securely. The wires are a lazy J instead of a straight U, which is common on the SF style, at least in this size. Due to this wire shape the width is 6.25” though that’s more due to the wire shape than a wider wire. The gore also has a sheer faux peek-a-boo gore which is ... quite nice. There are 3 single diamond dangles-at the gore and each strap.
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 22.5” and stretches to a max of 28.75”. It has 3 hooks and 4 rows of eye loops. The band is full lace, so it has more tension 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: 12.25”
2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 14.25”
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 feels great on the tightest hook-set but the cups are sadly too small. While most SFs are perfectly full yet still wearable in a 60KK, I have had a few that are just a bit too small, and with the max depth of 14.25” for this one I knew it wasn’t going to work. I will try this one in a 60L if Ewa is generous enough to allow.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt the cups run a bit smaller on this. I wore it a couple of times and by the end of the day I wanted to rip the bra off for it being so restrictive and tight in the cup!
