    65I

    Fits

    MY SHAPE: Projected, center full, tall and narrow roots.

    THE TAKEAWAY: Called "semi-padded" by the manufacturer, this bra has a lightly-padded three-part bottom cup topped with (NON-stretch) lace. Impimi recommends it especially for fuller-bust folks. Good projection, seems to handle my center-fullness well. Band is on the bigger side of TTS, hard-stretching to ~31". The lace is fairly stiff, so truly FOT folks might want to look elsewhere, but with my tall roots I was able to go from an FF to a G and get a good fit. Straps are wide-set.

    DETAILS: I find the 30G to actually be a liiiiittle bit big on the right side tonight (which ... is funny, as that's usually my slightly larger side), but while tightening the strap fixed it, it's worth pointing out that Impimi does asymmetrical bras for no extra cost, so if I wanted a 30G that was an FF on the right side, they could simply... make me one. Nice.

    The straps are a bit of a problem, though, for me -- and I say that as someone who doesn't usually have issues with strap placement on a 30 band. (I had problems much more regularly when I was a 34.) They're definitely threatening to give me some armpit chafe, but I'll probably keep it anyway because it's so nice everywhere else.

    For comparison, my usual UK size is 32FF/30G, depending on the band, so for me this was a pretty straight conversion, although the FF might've also fit in a style that was a little more flexible on top, so when I make my next order (it'll probably be the Impimi Colette with the STRETCH lace top), I'll try 30FF and 30G again.

    The Adell probably won't fool you into thinking it's a luxury bra (and for this price point, I wouldn't expect it to), but the lace is fairly soft rather than actively scratchy, and so is the inside of the padded cup. It's also just a very pretty bra, but admittedly I'm weak to black and red colorways.

    After my catastrophic failures with the 70H - Gaia » Annika Soft (553) in both 70 and 65, it was wonderful to put on a bra and have it seem to just... work! And this one definitely does.

    The shape it creates is very nice, I think; not extremely round, but not pointy either. Uplifted in a gentle way. And the light padding is sure to be appreciated by people who worry about unlined bras and nipple show-through.

    An interesting note on the gore: it isn't actually as high as it looks. The top inch of it is just soft fabric, the wires having stopped lower down, which is kind of perfect for my center-heavy boobs. It keeps them a little bit separated, but doesn't press in, and might be more comfortable for people who have issues with other gores.

    Also, the Adell and many other styles are currently on sale for as low as $20 USD, so you might wanna head over there now (or wait to see if they do a sale for Christmas).

      I wasn't sold on the bra based on the Impimi pictures but it looks really nice on you.

    • 2

      Aww, thanks! I was kind of unsure what the lace portion would be like when it arrived, and I definitely think it'd be problematic on a more FOT person, but I keep looking down and smiling a little. It really works well for me.

    • I wear 32DD or E in Freya, 70G in Comexim, do you think 70F in this bra would fit me?

    • Saphiro My Comexim size is around a 70HH, if that helps. They have a pretty decent measuring chart, but also responded to an email I sent them in English. This is what I said:

      "70H is described on the chart being more or less equivalent to 32FF. I do take a 70HH/I in Comexim (usually), and a 70G/GG in Ewa Michalak. I measure ~68/97cm. So I think 70H is probably where I want to start?

      "My shape is center-full and I am tall-rooted, but I am hopeful that the Adell will have enough room 'on top' for my shape. :)"

      This is what they said back:

      "There is no problem to write us in English at all.
      Thank you for information. For you we suggest size UK 30FF- EU65H Adell bra."

      I was surprised, so I compromised and ordered the 65H but also a 65I. And that's my suggestion to you, too, if shipping back or reselling a bra that doesn't fit isn't too big a deal for you.

      This looks so pretty! Black and red together is growing on me. Please add measurements! :)

      rainbrasspetals , thanks so much for the detailed review! I made a big Impimi order a few weeks back, including an Adell but in beige and 70G. I'm also usually a 32FF but my next best sister size is up (34F) not down (30G) like yours, and my shape is opposite - narrow and close but side full and short roots. So I am interested in seeing the fit comparison since we need more Impimi measurements! I'm sure you will be adding yours soon, in plenty of time for me to fret that I ordered the wrong size, before the package arrives and I can still take advantage of their terrific sale, lol...

      letstalkaboutbras jennyanni measurements coming soon for sure! Both the FF before I send it back and the G! :) I'm a little slow on those alas......

    • 1

      Love4Pollinators also thank you!

      letstalkaboutbras with my super limited sample, I would think 70G has a good chance of working for you... if the band genuinely runs a little big (say 33"?)... the cups might be too big is my biggest fear for you but that's also gonna depend a LOT on shape. I promise I will get my measurements up this weekend (I have class tomorrow and a two hour hair appointment tonight or I would promise sooner >> ) But fair warning, I am crap at depth measurements ;; I don't know how other people do them but I consistently seem to come up short.

      Wearing the same bra today myself! I was pleased to find this brand...the price point isn't too bad and so far, wearing it over a few days has been comfortable. The fabric is not scratchy, I agree there...it would only bother me if I was getting sweaty so I don't think I'd wear this bra in the summer months.

      Looks fantastic on you too! Yay for a good fit!

    • I have this bra in an undetermined size. The tag said 65E. The sewn in tag says 65D. I find it interesting you think the lace is soft. In fact I haven't read a review yet saying otherwise. I've yet to review mine, but I find the lace to make me literally claw my chest off. It must be made of steel wool. It's awful & ruins what is otherwise a very good fit.

    • 2

      This bra is beautiful on you!! That georgeous black lace over the red is really striking. And at the prices you are talking about, I might have to try one myself!! :)

    • rainbrasspetals I need a firm 28 band these days, so any more than 29 inches stretched is a problem. I used to be even/full on top, now I am FoB, close set and center full. My boobs have shrunk a lot and I need super narrow and pretty deep cups :/ I'd like to try Impimi, the main thing that has stopped me is the cups seem to wide for me...

    • 1

      That bra looks great on you, rainbrasspetals ! Thanks for contributing to Impimi brand knowledge! I'd never heard of a company that would do asymmetrical bras.

    • lcl0706 that sizing is weird. :|a

      I wasn't sure how to describe the lace. For me, it doesn't itch. (My Empreinte Melody... now that, to me, is rough lace.) I wouldn't necessarily say it's like, silken? Maybe soft is less what I mean than smooth. But clearly whatever word I would use, it's a deal breaker for you. :(

    • rainbrasspetals I also have pretty sensitive skin, but nothing so bad it can't tolerate a Marcie, so I was shocked the lace irritated me so much!

    • Huh. I would've thought I had sensitive skin (my mom keeps insisting I do anyway :P), in that I can't bear to wear wool, even soft wool... but I've long thought that might just be an allergy lol.

      It's definitely worth warning people about, I'm just. Well, probably slightly less surprised by your problem than you are that no one else so far has had it. :( I'm sorry it didn't work for you.

    • letstalkaboutbras In my 30G, they're about six inches across (at the top of the gore wires, anyway; slightly wider if you go by the top of the channel). That wasn't wide enough to bother me, at least not on a short wear, although I can go as narrow as 5" and be happy. I think a bigger problem for me than wideness itself is the shallowness that comes along with it.

    A little unknown brand from Poland called Impimi . I sister sized up to a 95 band as I was afraid the 90 would be too tight. Turns out the 90 would have been fine. The cup is true to size as well and like other Polish brands the wires are narrow giving a forward projection. I went ahead and ordered my regular size in all black! This bra is half padded but fits more like a padded for me. I would definitely go down a cup in the soft styles if I decided to get that style. The embroidery on this is beautiful and the ... materials are lovely for their reasonable prices. It's really hard to see the bra detail on their website so when I got this bra I was pleasantly surprised by the detailing. I wasn't too intrigued by their photos which just goes to show - great photos do help sell a bra online! They do ship to the USA right from the website without any special emailing back and forth like some Polish brands and it took about 3 weeks to get to me but I suspect that's the holiday mail clogging up the system at the moment. ❤️❤️❤️

    Since I got it I have been wearing it as my "everyday" bra given a looser band is extra comfortable and around the house I don't need the extra support. Having said that, I think my proper size will fit comfortably as well and have a better shape for under clothes when going out.

      Thanks finallygotboobs and Wanabee ! Wishing you good bra karma on your incoming bra finallygotboobs! :)

    • A bit of wrinkling on left, and maybe 90FF will fix that. But it looks like it fits you well. Wish I could wear one of these, but it's a bit narrow for me :\

    • 3

      dfe98we Ya, the wrinkling tends to happen on my smaller side and I live with it as my bigger side is happy :) The right band will more than likely fix that as it'll put a little more tension on the wire and pull backwards a little more. My larger side tends to be about 3/4 cup. Interestingly enough this brand will sew for asymmetry if you are a cup or maybe 2 cups or more bigger on one side. I thought that was cool.

      And the sister size is a 90G as they don't do the FF :)

    This Polish brand boasts narrow wires and projected shape which I prefer but the band is a little wider than my other Polish brands which I thought I would prefer but I am not so sure I do. I will need to wear a full day to decide. The embroidery is definitely gorgeous and I am seeing a bit of wrinkle on my smaller side but the larger is filled fine. Cup construction is interesting now that I look closer and would be considered 3 part? Overall good quality for the price of this bra which I got for about $20 on sale but I do think I prefer the red colored Adell better! ❤❤❤

    This is from my shopping trip to Poland! Feel free to send me a message if you want any more info on that. For reference, I believe that I had short, narrow roots with a very projected, omega shape. My best Cleo fit is the Meg then Marcie/Melissa.

    After trying on all the bras I bought again, I think this is one of my favorites that I've worn so far. Apparently this brand is new, as their website has nothing on it and I had to add it to bratabase.

    The straps are soft but not super stretchy. I'll call it a semi-soft, with a solid, thin foam(?)/cloth bottom and ... a un-stretchy mesh embroidered top covered in darling sparkly red embroidered circles that look like jewels. There is a piece of elastic at the top of the embroidered part that may cut into people with taller roots/more upper fullness. The arms are cut a bit high for my liking, but just under what I'd consider annoying. The band is firm but doesn't cut in or press in too much.

    The shape is just like round orbs, which I love. The wires have a nice tack but aren't harshly pressing in and seem nicely narrow to me. The projection is actually really good considering how much I need, there is minimal folding at the bottom, I feel nicely supported and lifted, and I think this would be a great addition for someone looking for the classic Polish shape once they get the website up and running.

    Hasn't set fit

    While the Michelle was too big, this was just the wrong shape. Definitely wasn't good for FOT breasts, maybe not even good for moderately even breasts. I got a duck bill going on here. It's a shame, since I loved the appearance of the red colourway and wanted to keep it.

    • I think it looks positively beautiful! I definitely see how it is too small for you. Do you plan on listing it or were you able to return it? I would buy from you in a heart beat!

    Didn't fit

    I'm going to say this bra doesn't fit me. The wires are too tall and the straps are still too wide. I fit the bottom of the bra but the top is just wrinkling. I purchased this brand because I was suggested the brand based on my narrow roots and narrow shoulders and this style was the only one that came in "my size."

      yeah... whoever told you this bra was good for narrow shoulders was wrong.
      I dont have narrow shoulders, and the straps feel wideset, and the cups come high.

      I kind of want to tell people not to get impimi bras when theyre thinking of getting them (and make a post), but I keep in mind that if a bra fits me like crap, it won't necessarily fit crappy on others.

      Sorry this doesn't fit you

    • What's so bad about Impimi bras?

      uniteacher i wouldn't say anything bad about the bra actually, it seems like it's made well and from quality materials. The price also seemed a little better than some of the other brands I've had to try. It just wasn't quite what I need for my shape.

    Fits

    Review for the beige colorway. Me: even/even, functionally FOB due to soft tissue and sag, narrow and close set, immediate projection like a shelf. More side than center fullness. This bra works so well! Adell is sized like Nicol i.e. I am 32FF and it fits great although Impimi calls this a 32F on their website and the paper tag while the sewn-in label calls it UK/US 32G - so confusing!! Perfect narrow wires in a U shape with 1/2" play in the channel. The wires are flexible, not hard. Gore is relatively tall and narrow; tacks and separates nicely while still providing visible cleavage in a v-neck ... top. The bottom of this half-padded bra has the same 3-part, angled-seam cup construction as Nicol, providing lots of depth at the wire and bringing the tissue in and up. Which is a good thing because the top panel is non-stretchy net lace (which looks as thought it would be scratchy but isn't at all). This panel is fairly loose although angled in and has elastic along the very top so I think it would be OK for FOT but probably wouldn't be very good for shallow or truly FOB people. If I do not swoop & scoop, I do not fill the top, but once I do it all stays there all day supported by the bottom part. The top lace is very elegant, with embroidery subtly down to the padded part and little twinkling silver dots among the warm golden-beige embossing. It is flat and does not show under a knit top. The gore and center panel is the same elegant embroidery, with a sweet little ruffle at the bottom; lace continues up the strap 1"+. Great color matching! The band is TTS, maybe a little tight as brand new. Side boning in the wings is also slightly angled (I think all this angling is what works so well for my side fullness). Straps are easy to adjust and fairly stretchy; they are also wide set but less so than Ewa M. Overall construction is not super-luxe but is on par with top line Polish, and everything is padded/soft/comfortable. I suggest be careful about sizing, since Impimi seems to be still trying to figure that out! Best bet is to email them with measurements and ask a recommendation, their customer service is awesome. I have consistently gotten immediate and helpful responses in English, and it is nice to support a small new business!
