A very comfortable and practical molded cup bra. The band is true to size but quite stretchy. The cups might not work well for those who have a lot of center fullness, but since I have none they worked perfectly for me! Gives a natural rounded shape, not super uplifted or rounded.
This bra doesn't fit me. I've ordered on ebay the 30FF, it was tiny - maybe contained half my breasts. So I exchanged it for a 32G - which was huge! Now I can fill only about 2/3 of the cups. I'd say that it corresponds to 32HH. My usual size is 30G/GG, for reference.
For sale: Brand New With Tags Lepel Elizabeth Molded Plunge. Tags say it's 32G, but it fits like a snug 32H or maybe even 32HH. It's huge in the cups and the size tag does not make sense. My boobs don't stay in. The cups are huge, I'd guess it's a J or a K. Really cute, wish it fit. I only wore briefly.
I got the Lepel Fiore at the start of my bra-epiphany and then thought it was fantastic. I've gotten wiser since then, but still have to admit that it is a very comfortable bra. The wires are too wide and the band could be tighter, the cup separation is too much and it comes quite high up to my armpit. The 30DD has the ideal cup size for me and overall works for me as a comfy everyday bra. I might take in the gore though. Love the stretchy lace - great for my unevennness. I have it in 3 sizes now 30D, which will probably be listed, as it's too small, 30DD - the best fit and 32D - something I bought on sale, but band waaay too loose.
Check out my review of the 30G - Lepel » Babushka Padded Balconette Bra (141104) for more information as these two bras are virtually identical in fit. The only difference I found is that the Lepel Lilly material is much softer and more supple/smooth to the touch and the Babushka more satiny.
I returned this bra due to the pointy east/west appearance and that the G cup ran just a tad small for me, causing issues especially on the larger side. The cups are fairly open on top, but the pre-form makes them not very accommodating to asymmetry. My tissue is soft up there, so I got some spillage, but mostly it just pushed the cup outward and it caused an unflattering shape.
Very happy with this bra - it is firm but delicate and feminine and the size is spot on. I knew it right away that it was a keeper so got the matching briefs as well. Band fits like a 28".
The band on this bra is tight but within range for a 32. The fabric is soft and stretchy, especially in the top portion.
I ordered the wrong size on this bra (meant to get 32F) but I still think it may not have worked for me. My breast tissue is very soft and pendulous and this bra was just not quite firm enough to keep me in place. Still, it is a fairly popular bra, so this issue may have more to do with me buying the wrong size or it just may be wrong for my shape. This is the same type of issue I run into with the Andorra Plunge, for example.
I missed my return window for Figleaves on this, so it will probably be listed soon.
Really cute bra that a friend gave me at the start of my fitting journey. Fits relatively true to size, and has a nice amount of projection at the base. Material is not stiff, but it is sturdy. I did not have the chance to wear it at all since I was too small when I received the bra and grew straight on to an F cup (and beyond) during pregnancy before I realized I needed to start wearing a different size.
My only real complaint is the straps, which are a bit thin for my liking.
I would have bought this if it came in a different colourway, but unfortunately it wasn't quite the right shape for me. The apex was more pointy and not quite in the right place. It was extremely comfy and seemed to be well made.
This bra is gorgeous, but it was wrong for me all over. First of all, I bought it knowing that I'd probably have to alter it a bit, but the band is veeeery loose and stretchy, just too much, and it would be a waste to alter it when it could fit someone else much better.
The cups are pretty stiff and molded, and too open and big for me: gap-a-rama! It really feels like it's me who's supporting the bra and not the other way round. The cups don't adapt to my shape at all and my asymmetry makes it even more evident. I would even say they ...run a little big, but honestly, the fit of it all it's so off that I'm not sure. The gore doesn't tack I think because the band is too large, but also because the bottom of my boobs pushes the cup away at the bottom: I need bottom projection and this bra doesn't have much of that. I think it would suit better someone with upper fullness, less projection, and firmer tissue. And just to someone bigger than me kinda everywhere
It's a shame because the design is very nice and the color matches my skin tone very well. I love polka dots and the cute but sexy and classy look of it, so much that I wanted to get the matching bottoms too! The materials feel nice and they're soft and comfy. The only thing I don't like it's like it's got only 3 hooks per row, and that's a bit insufficient for a longline in my opinion.
But yeah, a shame. I'll be listing this one! Read more 168 more words
I'm very excited because this is my first bra actually fits!
Many reviews say this runs small in the band, big in the cup so I bought 36f instead of 34g or 36ff (my measured size) I absolutely agree with the reviews. Especially you are fob type "size down one or two cup, up one in the band unless you prefer a extremly tight band. I think someone who loves a tight band can go their true size as the band easily stretches out. This bra gives enough projection with a narrow tall wire and round shape as well.
This is my best fitting bra yet. I love it! The cups work great for my shallow tissue, and this bra is the first I’ve ever encountered that actually contains my tall root. I believe I have a long torso, and so far even my best fitting bras let a little tissue escape into my underarms. The wires are 9.25” long, and the wings are about 3.75” high. The band on this bra runs snug; this 32D fits more like a 30DD. Appearance and construction-wise this bra seems very solid. It has a full band and mesh wings. It’s even boned! The front of the band and cups are a shiny satin fabric, trimmed with an antiqued or champagne colored lace. The center gore features a double bow made of ribbon and lace. The color is called copper cream but reminds me of a dusty rose.
The wires were too narrow for me, but the wires seem to be on the softer side. The band runs tight and fits like a loose 28/tight 30. Love the little lace and ribbon details and the color though!
I love polka dots and have been wanting a lone-line for a long time! This bra would work well for someone with basically opposite boobs as me... Average roots, can accommodate tall roots, good for FoB shapes, requires some center projection and a little bit more space between the boobs than I have. It's really soft and lovely in person, my boobs and this bra are just incompatible!
A great fit! Maybe not a t-shirt bra, but good for under blouses and sweaters. This bra works wonderfully for my shallow shape and is nicely (and subtly) uplifting. I love the detail lacing on the wings, even though I'm not the biggest fan of the lace edging on the cups. The bra looks solidly constructed, and the lacing on the wings is impressively reinforced. I'll definitely be adding this style to my bra rotation.
This bra is a little odd on me, but aside from the straps not adjusting long enough, the fit isn't technically too bad. I do feel that it gives me an unusual shape though. The bra comes with some push up air pads, which actually don't seem to do much pushing up for me. I just get some quadboob without cleavage - definitely not the desired effect. So I think this shape is wrong for me. The band is very firm, which makes this bra a very tight 32.
