A two piece cup with nice stitching and lace on top. In smaller cup sizes (up to EU-E) the top part is see-through. For F,G and H they added an extra layer of fabric. I bought it in a light blue/turquoise coloir, it's also available in other seasoned colours and in black and white. There are three tiny roses added at the gore and the straps.
The straps are center-pull, rather wide, rather long and only partially adjustable. I will probably shorten them slightly
The band is wide and true to size which also means I will shorten it. The bra does come in 70 bands but only up to E-cup.
The fabric is sturdy and the bra gives me a very uplifted, pointed shape. There seems to be little immediate projection but I don't get empty space at the bottom. The wires are almost the perfect width.
I already bought this bra in 75G (34F) in a different colour so half of this review will be copy+paste, the other half will be how the bra differs. It does fit me slightly better in this size.
The whole bra is made from stretchy lace - especially the upper part. I like the pretty pattern. This reminds me a bit of the Panache Andorra. The fabric could be a bit sturdier for my taste but the smaller size gives better lift so it's not really a problem.
In 34E the straps are not as far apart - they still attach at a weird angle but do not ...dig in. The straps are not fully adjustable but a good length for me.
As it's made of this lace, there seems to be some wiggle-room in the cup size. Both the 75F and the 75G fit well, although the 75F is better. I am usually a 70G. This also means the band is slightly big (I can immediately hook it on the tightest eyes) and I will probably take it in at some point.
The wires are definitely narrower than the Andorra and almost perfect width for me. The gore could be a bit wider but it's not a problem.
Update (June 2016): I had taken in the band to get a 70 band. Now the band has lot all elasticity and cuts in despite being too loose. On review the shape and support is not as nice as I would like it. Read more 143 more words
Affordable strapless bra. Fit and shape overall is quite good, it stays up well enough during the day, although it can be annoying towards the end of the day (firm band and silicone straps tend to irritate my skin a bit but a 80 band wouldn't stay up, I'm afraid). The boning on the sides tends to bulge outwards, because of rather flimsy band & bone material, that's a con but not visible under the particular clothes that I wear it with. If you go for skintight clothing, it could pose an aesthetic problem.
I have yet to use the detachable straps but they are wide, firm and the loops for attachment are very tight and the hooks won't slip easily. Good thing!
All in all, I got this bra for 16 € (normally 22 €) and for that money it's a very very acceptable strapless bra.
A padded bra that gives a nice lift. Unfortunately, it is not very comfortable after some hours. I bent the wires a bit so that they follow the curve of the body better and make sure I pull it up to fit when I put it on, but it still digs in a bit. I don't think the band is too tight (it feels snug, but I can still insert two fingers without problem).
