Meh... Super pretty bra with wonderful trims and bow applique in the front left cup and in the back fastener. It's just really the wrong size and i can't wear it (I'm usually a 28e/f so I'd need to alter a 32d for a good cup fit). The cups are very open on top and low cut. I think even in the right cup size, it would be low cut. The materials are super soft and luxurious feeling. The Ruby is a luminous deep red. I love the trim on the straps.
Nice! I'm super tempted to take this off your hands, but my bra drawer is full and really can't fit another bra. Probably. It's really cramped in there.
...but Fauve!
(Also, fun fact, the url for this particular bra is dildo. I am super immature and giggled at it.)
bellea It's super pretty and I am so sad that Fauve has gone out of business. If it fit me, you bet I'd be keeping it! Hopefully someone can give it a good home and love it
This bra is beautiful, and basically everything I could wish for in terms of color. Olive green cups with black roses and white detailing. The only way it could be better is if the detailing were done in silver instead.
I could not find this bra in this colorway in 30D anywhere and thus settled for 32C, two sister sizes away from my preferred size. I knew I would have to alter the band down, and I was fine with that. Unfortunately, it turns out this bra not only runs large in the band but in the cups as well.
The band is 28 inches unstretched, which meant that ...I couldn't wear it even on the tightest hook. No problem. I folded the band over at the hooks and reduced the unstretched band to about 24 inches, more in line with my 30D - Fauve ยป Celine Padded Half Cup (0111) . The band fit great at that point. But a well-fitting band showed that, well, it wasn't just the large band affecting the fit of the cups. The cups themselves had just a bit too much projection, resulting in gaps along the top of the cup. I can get rid of most of the gaps by tightening the straps like whoa, but that resulted in red indents on my shoulders after a day of wear, so I loosened them a bit and dealt with the small gaps. You can't see them under a shirt anyway.
The Dali isn't as plush as the Celine, but it's still quite comfortable. The wires are soft and bend easily. The gore is fairly low, so it doesn't bother me. The straps are quite difficult to adjust due to the loopy edge decorations.
The cups feel like they're quite shallow on the side and bottom, similar to the Celine, but as it runs large, it doesn't do much for me. Going down a cup would probably improve things a lot, and probably squish me enough to get cleavage. But 32B in green doesn't seem to exist any more than 30D, at least on ebay. Too bad.
Overall, this is a good bra for wide, shallow, tall-rooted breasts. The band runs large but not as large as Freya bands, thankfully. Read more 268 more words
I love the look of this bra!
