My first and only (so far) order from BraStop came in today and just look at what I got! I've never tried anything from Lepel before but from the reviews on here it seemed like the padded balcony style might work for my wide roots. I'm so glad that I ordered this one. Not only is the color and pattern gorgeous, it fits me like a glove! The wires are wide enough to completely incase my wide roots but the cup doesn't come up high under my armpits so it's very comfortable. The band was very snug, probably the tightest 32 band I've ... ever tried, but I was expecting that from the reviews on here. I'll be wearing it with an extender until it stretches out a little, but this is a minor issue compared to the wonderful fit of this bra everywhere else.

The three seams on the front fabric of the cups are very flat as is the lace at the top, and neither show through my shirts. The straps are very comfortable. Even though this bra has one of the highest gores of any bra I own, it's narrow enough for my average spaced breasts so I don't have any problems with it (no poking or digging). Such a pretty bra, I can hardly stop looking at it. All in all, a great find that makes me wonder about other Lepel padded bras that might work for me.

Magenta colorway

Updated on Sep 10, 2015 Flag this

Since I had such success with the Magenta colorway of this bra, I ordered another one in Pink/Ivory. The fit is similar for me, but not quite as perfect. The cups don't sit quite the same, but still fit well. As with the Magenta colorway, the band on this is not true to size and I would advise sister sizing up in the band. The 32" band really only stretches to 31" so I'm wearing this one with an extender for comfort (snug underbust 32", tight underbust 30.5").

Just FYI, uploading my pictures to bratabase dulled the color to a dusty rose, but in real life the color is a satiny hot pink.
