This bra is probably from the early 2000's or maybe the late 1990's, I'm not sure. It was packed away in my friends's daughter's storage. He let me take it to add to Btatabase's database. It being a 38DD I tried it on and it fit me but not well . The cups are all wrong for me . The straps are set too wide. Anyway, this bra has a lace-up gore, so I guess the "cup separation" is really adjustable. It has 2 part cups . Half lace and half soft nylon. As for the straps. They are only half adjustable in the back with the front half being too wide for the adjusting slider thingy. 3 hooks for the band. Seems rather flimsy for a DD sized bra!
Please note I got this in a bigger size assuming my breasts and torso would be bigger due pregnancy, weight gain and then nursing...
The fabric is certainly comfortable, basically same design as: Maidenfrom Pure genius extra coverage tailored bra (07539) with softer and more elastic fabric, add a bit of lace at the top of the cups for variety, some cute little "stitches" along the strap and the result is this. The first thing I noticed was that as cute as it is the lace tends to show.
After a while of having it I can say it's high maintenance in comparison, tiniest little fuzz will stick to the ...fabric, even your shirt will stick to it depending on material and the lace is falling apart on this while my very first 07539 is still in pretty decent shape for the rough treatment it gets... I put in the washer on the most gentle cycle and it has been thrown in the dryer a couple of times (not on purpose!).
Even at the end of my pregnancy with 35kg extra, I was never able to fill the cups and the band never got too tight, but apparently none of the weight gain went to my breasts but the bigger band was needed because I ended up with some back fat. The closest I got to filling it was while I was nursing. I must admit it was heaven for sore nipples though.
Also I noticed less of a line under the breast that I complained about before, often shown even on the girl modeling the product, I guess I need wider cups? Read more 161 more words
