I don't have a lot to say about this bra. I bought it in June 2012 from the clothing company Kappahl, the quality is like a bra you would buy from H&M, maybe a smidgeon better actually because H&M bras suck unbelievably much. Okay, I take that back, it's actually better but I'd still consider the quality to be crappy.
I bought this bra with the intention to alter it to an appropriate length but later on I found out that the cups were too small for me. The largeness of the band masked the fit of the cups. I thought I swooped and scooped properly in the store ...trying it on, but I now know I didn't as thoroughly as you should. If I would've bought it in 80C or 80D (36C/36D) I would've altered it. Even so, I don't think I would've been happy with the fit even if it technically would've fit. I prefer wings that are higher and the wings on this bra are very very low imo.
80B --> 75C --> 70D --> 65DD --> 60E --> 55F The volume of the cups is the same as a 55F, and based on the fit I currently have in it I think I would've needed a 55FF or 55G (26FF/26G). I *really* dislike the width and the comfort of these straps. They are elastic and I don't see the point in that, really. They're only like 1 cm wide. Read more 132 more words
I just popped this on in the shop, I never actually bought it. However, I still wanted to put it up on Bratabase. It's all about the fit really, and clearly this one didn't fit me... The issues are: - Too big band - Too long straps - Too much material near the armpit causing constriction - Straps situated too far out
I like the color a lot https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> And I love it that it's lined. I find nipple show embarrassing and uncomfortable, I wanna feel free to freeze or be excited without anyone knowing because they caught a glimpse at my breasts! Onto the color again, it's nude and it's not an ugly nude because of the lace! It's one of the few nude shades that actually blend into my skin, I think it's a perfect match! I like the coral/orange little bow in the middle as well.
In order for this bra to work for me I would have to have it altered down to a 60f(28f) or a 55g(26ff).

I find nipple show embarrassing and uncomfortable, I wanna feel free to freeze or be excited without anyone knowing because they caught a glimpse at my breasts! Onto the color again, ...it's not red, it's not pink as described on Kappahl's website, it's more orange-y. Not a true bright orange but somewhere between coral and orange https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> It's actually very pretty! I like the nude little bow in the middle as well.
I think I would've needed this to be in 60f(28f) or 55g(26ff) to work for me. Kappahl seems to be pretty consistent in sizing! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Read more 77 more words
I really like this bra and for the right person I think it would suit her well! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I love the shiny black cups and the matte white polka dots. What I like about Swedish bras compared to British bras is that they're not so overly adorned. Yes, our bras are still adorned and cute but not to the point where your tooth is starting to ache(too much sweetness). I think we have a happy medium between super-ultra-girly and granny, where's the british market has a two-way option really. Correct me if I'm wrong but I really find it to be that ...way. My Flirtelle Divine for example, it pains me to look at it. It looked supercute at the Brastop website but once I saw it out of the box having oversized bows at the gore AND the straps... Ugh... It was just too much. One bow is enough, really!
On topic; it didn't fit me as I knew it wouldn't. I just popped it on in the shop for funsies. Too big band, too long straps and straps situated too far out causing them to chafe my armpits... Good cup volume though, no overspill nor gaping. I'm not sure about the wire width but I didn't experience any discomfort from it. I think I would've needed a 60f(28f) or a 55g(26ff) in order for this bra to work for me, meaning I'd have to alter this bra down 4-5 band sizes. Biiiiig alteration! Read more 142 more words
I tried this in 70b(32b) as well and my boobs were all over the place. This is a 80b(36b) and although the spillage lessened it didn't fully stop. The cups are still too small. The band in the 70 was all too large and this one that is 2 sizes bigger is obviously even more horrendously big. I didn't experience the wire width to be significantly bigger, nor did I find the straps to change position or width either.
It's a pretty bra. Not oh-my-gosh-pretty but everyday pretty https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> It's generously padded, meaning that it's not only padding in the sense that it has a smooth and even padding(thin, like a pancake covering your boobs haha), it has padding in the sense that the padding is thicker in the bottom and to the sides, quite heavy padding. Some describe what I described first as lining, and that's what I preferably would call it as well, but people use different terms so I just wanted to make it clear EXACTLY what I meant https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Some say ...padding to both padding(cushion effect) and lining, which is pretty frustrating, especially when you try to navigate on a lingerie website for a lined bra.
Anyway, I'm sized out of this big time and I knew it even before I tried it on. I just wanted to for funsies. I was especially intrigued to try it since I remember strongly when my father refused to buy me a sports bra over the internet(30dd) because "No way are you a DD-cup! Your an A, maximum B Jenny!". Retard... I DO think girls know better than their fathers -_-' !!! After all, they're my fat lumps, not yours. I think he would be horrified if he saw this on me and I would never show him, but this is soooo reassuring. The straps are too narrow for my liking, it would be much more comfortable if they were wider. Also, I find them situated too far out as I do on most bras. The band is too large and the cups are ridiculously too small. Wire width? I think it's good but I don't know how it would be in a bigger cup size. The gore tacks comfortably on me.
And oh, obviously I never bought it. I just tried it on for fun in the Kappahl changing room. Read more 215 more words
I bought this bra fron Kapp Ahl in summer-autumn 2012. I was so in love with it, I eventually got 2 orange ones, 1 lime / yellow and 1 black.
It is a strapless / multiway bra with wholly adjustable straps. The straps have two optional attachment places both ih the cups and in the back band! They have a very sturdy attachment mechanism which is of metal, and it is a little hard to remove / attach the straps, but once you succeed, they will definitely stay in place!! The bra also stays in place without the straps very well! The fabric is sheer but not satin, some ...other fabric. The cups have a nive lace in the top, this reminds me of Rhea bra very much.
It is 32E, but I´d say it fits like 30DD / 30D (my estimate)! The band is good on me when in the tightest hooks, and I normally need a 28 band. It has a good 3 hooks in a row - attachment. Unfortunately the cups are too small and I have serious quadboobing https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> and that´s why I need to give these gorgeous bras a new home.
NOTE! I have 2 of these in the same colour, so I put just photos of the other one. They are quite identical. I did measure them separately. Read more 126 more words
