  1. Glossies Moulded Bra (6271)

    28DD

    Didn't fit

    This is the softest bra I’ve ever tried on in my life. I’m obsessed. The cups are so beautiful and soft too. Fit isn’t 100% though, but that’s more my problem.

    This is definitely an average projected bra - I’m on the shallower side, and so I definitely have some wrinkles at the nipples. However, it’s not so bad that I would not wear it - plus with a little adjustment I can smooth it out. The cups have nice wide wires which is what I need.

    In terms of size, I got a 28DD - note that my calc size is now a 28E/F. There is a ... bit of quadboobing, however since I’m shallow, the cups at 28E or F would be far too projected, so I will personally be sticking with the 28DD as I’d rather quadboobing than wrinkles.

    I will say I’ve tried on other 28DD’s that I got with this bra, including a Gossard Envy, and they were all far too small for me, so I really do think this bra runs big in cups. I would personally recommend a size or two down in the cup. I have quite wide roots and no problem with the wire so if you’re narrow and projected (like most are), you may even consider two cup sizes down to get the wire width right.

    The band is fairly snug. I’m in between a 28/30 so I will be using an extender, however I would still say it is fairly true to band size. I had no problem closing it, I just don’t have that much squish.

    Overall, gorgeous bra, so soft, and surprisingly fit so well!

  2. Superboost Lace Plunge Bra (7711)

    This is a relatively wide and shallow cup. The top of the cup is pretty open on top for a three-part cup, which is surprising. It works well for my tall, wide, shallow roots.

    The band fits true to a 28 band and is pretty comfortable. The elastic is relatively plush.

    It has a single row of hooks, which I'm irritated by, but I guess that's Gossard.

    This colorway is a bright reddish pink, which I only got because that was what Amazon had in stock. It's really not my thing so I'll be returning it and keeping an eye out for better colors.

  3. Superboost Lace T Shirt Bra (7705)

    This is a bit of a push-up bra, so the bottom and sides of the cup are more thickly padded than the top of the cup. So like other push-up bras, the bottom and sides of the cup are very shallow. The rest of the cup is pretty shallow and open on top - it's great for tall, wide shallow roots.

    The band runs to a true 28 band and is a bit tight brand new.

    The material is comfortable, not scratchy, though I could do without the bow and charm on the gore.

    The straps are middling plushness - not the thickest, but also not that thin. ...

    The single row of hooks seems to be a Gossard thing and I hate it. Somehow, a single hook is more of a pain to connect than two hooks. I guess at this size two hook support isn't super necessary, but the thinness of the band across the back with the tight band isn't really what I'm used to.

    The nude color is a light-ish beige.

    This fits me pretty well, though I do get a little gaping if I'm not perfectly standing up straight. The bottom of the cup is probably too shallow for me, but the thickness of the cup means that any issues there are well hidden.

  4. Superboost Padded Plunge Bra

    28DD

    This bra is great! The cups are narrow enough, and it fits comfortably. It is slightly slightly too big in the cups, and I get a little bit of gapping at the top edges (worse on my smaller side). I think it might be as good as it gets though for a padded bra. It makes my boobs look great. I will note, I normally wear a 30D, and do in the unlined superboost. I'm really a 30C, but can never find my size and often have to settle for too big bras. For some reason 28DD fits better in this specific style. I usually run into issues ... being too center full for a bra's shape, and the wires being too wide. This bra is perfect in that it has narrow enough cups, and enough immediate projection at the gore to accommodate my center fullness.

    As a side note, I tried 6! different sizes of this bra searching for the best fit, and 28DD was as good as I could get. 30D was bigger in the cups. I wish they made 28D or 30C. 32B was giant in the band on me, but absolutely perfect in the cups.

    I tried this bra in 28DD and 30D. I'm somewhat in-between sizes 30C/D, so I tried this size just in case as it doesn't come in 30C. The cups fit pretty well. If anything, some very slight wrinkling at the tops. The band fits and can fasten, but it is uncomfortably tight.

    This is such a gorgeous, high quality bra, it's a shame it didn't work for me!
    I got this from r/braswap and a bunch of bras, all in a 28DD. However, I remeasured after I bought them since I hadn't measured in a couple of months and I felt I went up in size. Would you believe, I did. So my calculator size is a 28E/F. So this bra is definitely too small in the cups for me. I would say it is a true 28DD, but for projected breasts.

    You will see the tragedy that is this fit in the pictures. It is quadboobing galore, so in theory I ... would definitely need a 28F I'd say. However, there is a lot of puckering and wrinkling at the nipples, and the bra kinda collapses into my boob. I am on the shallower end (not Natori Feathers shallow, but too shallow for Panache), and this shape isn't for me at all unfortunately.

    The band was fine, albeit a little tight. I don't know if it warrants going up in band but consider going up if you're inbetween band sizes.

    If you're projected, definitely try this bra out, and go for your normal size.

    I was hesitant when the saleslady suggested this bra, as I had never worn a bra with non-padded or moulded cups before.
    I was always afraid that would feel not as strongly supported, but I feel very secure in this bra.
    The lace of the cup stretches, which feels very comfortable. The lace itself is also very fine/flat so it does not show through fabric.
    Straps can be detached to cross over in racerback style. It has a nice deep plunge so can be worn under almost any of my top (accept for white because it will shine through obviously).

    Had to get used to the transparancy of the lace as it shows your nipples, but I have come to love this bra so much!
    I feel comfortable, supported, confident, and very sexy in it, while feeling almost like wearing a bralette.
    My favorite bra I own!

    • Where did you get this in a 28 band? It looks great btw! Glad it worked out well for you.
      I too started out my bra journey in the 28D/DD range. It can be so difficult to find great sub 32 band bras! Even the women who are over an F/FF cup are large busted, they are still bras for smaller/petite women and most of them are just designed the same as the 32+ bands. And my favorite bra brands now no longer exist! Lol.
