I really adore the unique design of Amelie. The way the cup fabric continues into straps looks novel and amazing, and the embroidered lace is absolutely beautiful and looks like pearls. This bra is super sexy but still sophisticated!

The construction is quite delicate and not necessarily the most supportive (but maybe that’s not really the point). The straps and band are thin, and the fabrics feel quite stretchy overall. The lower, sheer mesh sits completely smoothly on my body, which is rare for an unpadded bra. The lace on top is not attached to the mesh and it needs to be adjusted when putting on, but it mostly ... stays in place after that. The shape I get in this bra is slightly pointy, and I feel that a major contributor to this is the thick seam of the lace fabric that lies at the most projected part of the cup. There’s side sling made of white mesh inside the cups, and I think might be less practical for darker skin tones.

The cups definitely have a lot of projection! The wires follow my narrow roots for the most part, but get a bit too wide towards the top. They feel pretty firm as well. There is an elastic trim at the top edge of the cups that cuts in slightly on my FoT boobs. It doesn’t look horrible, but I think Amelie would suit more FoB shapes better. The band is tight, completely passable as a 28, and I can wear it on the loosest hook. The gore tacks very firmly. Despite being a plunge, it’s a bit too high or wide for me, and it’s already sitting at the edge of my breast tissue. The gore is my least favorite part of this bra.

In the end I rarely wear this bra because it’s not exactly the most comfortable or practical. But it still makes me feel pretty fabulous.

- It's pretty , reminds me of the wacoal retro chic but except in all black .http://www.wacoal-america.com/retro-chic-full-figure-underwire-bra-wacoal-855186-p.html
- If you like the style but wanted to try other colorways
- @lvp That's pretty! I like the jade one. But it seems to start at 32 band and I'm 28 usually so I think it would be too big. :/

  I have always loved the look of this bra. It's almost like a triangle bra and I secretly want a triangle bra that works so badly (okay, not really a secret I guess lol). I am sort of disappointed that they chose a white side sling - why white? I think black would have been a better choice.
  The combination of patterns on this is really something, though (the mesh, embroidery/appliqué). I'm glad to hear your thoughts on its comfort and where it cuts in at the top. Thank you!
- kerniss I'm glad you found it helpful! :) It's an incredible looking bra definitely! And quite a rare look in this size range.
  I also find the color of the side sling quite weird. I guess that they want to keep the look transparent, but that only works on a limited user base. And it's a bit difficult to see it in the stock pictures.
- Basically your review means that I know it won't work for me :') But I am glad to know that ahead of time! I just got to keep looking for bras that look like this but are cut differently (oh the trials LOL).
  I know what you mean with how limiting it is! For me, it would be great because I am so darn pale. But I'm way paler than most people, even my dad who is really lacking in pigment (blond eyelashes and all)! So it really only works for a small percentage of people. I wouldn't have known about the sling otherwise and I'm curious if it's the same in all the other colors of this bra. Hmm...
- kerniss I think it's the same in all colors, you can see that it's a bit too pale even for Figleaves' model http://www.figleaves.com/uk/product/FIG-133519/Lulu-Tout-Amelie-Underwired-Bra-DDH It's paler than my skin as well, although it doesn't really show in the pictures.
  I hope you'll find a triangle bra that fits! I can then go and buy the same one haha. This doesn't really work for me either, I just haven't had the heart to get rid of it because it's so beautiful. And I wasn't very bra-educated when I bought it.
  Actually I haven't really found a comfortable/fitting unpadded bra yet. In addition to everything cutting in at the top, I feel like the wires are pressing into my ribs more since the cups are taking less pressure. Or something like that. I think I'll have to try Comexim's unpadded bras.
- Omg this bra is stunning <3 how is the projection either side of the gore?
- Hi slowb ! Well it has good immediate projection, but maybe not so much center projection. The cups want to bring breasts forward but also keep them separated. The gore is also relatively wide, and the trim on the cups may cut into center fullness near the gore (it does on me a bit). Did I answer your question? :D

  That is SUPER helpful, thank you :) ohhh it would be a bad fit on me for so many reasons, but holy guacamole, it is SO pretty...I might just get it anyway!
- slowb Who knows, maybe it will surprise you. :) And it's not the most expensive luckily!
