This is the most comfortable bra I currently own. Despite the severe plunge, I never feel as if I'm falling out of it (super separate boobs help there). I normally hate anything that has any form of pink on it, but this bra is really pretty. I wasn't certain about the shape at first; the top section above the "horizontal" seam is a little short, so it gives a little more of a pointed shape than I'm used to. I wore it a couple times, though, and decided it looks pretty good. The only issue I have is occasional gaps at the top of the cups, which is easily fixed with a quick adjustment.
Not a perfect fit but it is honestly the best I've ever worn. I don't know what it is about coral-colored bras but I feel like I must have them all. This bra is very pretty but a more simple pretty; lace (with some shine) over foam cups, decorative bow and bear on gore, satin band and edges. Only two hooks which is a bummer, but that's just what Masquerade does. Only part of the straps are adjustable, which is fine for me but an issue for others.
The band feels pretty firm and makes you feel like if you stretch it too far, it'd tear rather than, well, ...stretch. I could stretch it to a little over 31in, but that was honestly pushing the limits. So needless to say, this bra runs small in the band. That said, it feels a bit too loose on me. I could comfortably hook it onto the last set of hooks.
I spill out on my larger side (while being too large for my smaller side), but this is not a deal breaker for me at all since there is much else is right with this bra. I can adjust the cup in a way so I don't spill out as much (or at all), but over time it decides it wants to bubble over once more. Plus I feel going up in cup volume would make the smaller side more problematic, so I feel this is a good balance. (For this bra)
The cups are moulded and not 100% perfect for my shape (as is the case for most people), the bottom part is a bit too shallow for me and the side of the cup near the gore is a little flat. The rest of it feels pretty good though (and is pretty darn comfortable, soft, huggable). It gives a good lift. The gore lays on some breast tissue, but that's pretty par for the course for me. It doesn't stab or put pressure on anything though, so I am fine with it.
Something interesting is that the wire channel is longer than the wires themselves. There is some empty space at the top of the gore and the top under the arms; about 1.5cm on each end, or about 3cm of extra space. Wire width is very nice for me, at least what I can tell so far. Also, the bra occasionally makes a creaking noise. Don't know what's up with that, but I don't mind it much.
Really beautiful orange-red bra. Comfortable, softly padded cups covered in lace (or a kind of embroidered net material - much nicer than it sounds) and edged with satin, which also makes up the front of the straps. It gives me a nice round, uplifted, slightly "Marie Antoinette" shape.
The centre gore doesn't quite lie flat, and there's a tiny bit of overspill. I think a cup size up would be too big. I'm trying to decide whether to return it or to keep it despite the minor fit issues, as it's so beautiful.
Gorgeous to look at, very comfortable, and thiiiiiis close to fitting. If it hadn't fit on the tightest hook right away, and if I didn't have such narrow shoulders, I would have kept it. I ended up exchanging it for the 30G because the cup measurements seemed so similar. Fingers crossed that the exchange pays off. Seems like it will be a good fit otherwise.
This is such a beautiful bra. The molded cups are covered in embroidered mesh with a magenta lace edging sown on top. It looks very luxurious but definitely show under clothing. The front part of the straps are satin that gets wider on top of the shoulders. they only adjust half way. There are only two hooks and three rows.
This bra has great uplift and a really nice rounded forward projection. I would say the under some outfits the uplift is almost too much.
I got it in 32G first and the cups were huge. I think perhaps the band is a little looser than my 32FF Masquerade Coco which I find a perfect fit. I could perhaps have done with a 30G.
I have to wear it on the second hook right away, otherwise I get gaping in the cups because if I tighten the straps any further it will ride up in the back. I have them tightened half way.
I've got the matching knickers which are beautiful as well.
Apart from my 32FF Cleo Lucy this is the best fitting bra I currently own. The cups are padded with one vertical seem. It has great uplift and a forward projection that makes me look slim from the front. Absolutely no East-West look. The straps only adjust half way but it's enough for me. The front part of the straps are covered with the same animal print material as the cups, I think it's ordinary straps underneath, not foam. The center gore and the center third part of the cups are covered with Black lace and there is a small button on the gore. The lace on the ...cups is only fastened along the edge of the cup. I am not so thrilled about it and I think it would be possible to remove it. I am not a fan of animal print either but it is actually very subtle. I've heard some Masquerades are quite smug in the band but I don't find this to be the case, contrary to my Rhea. I was unsure about the size and had ordered a 32G first after recently having purchased a 30GG Cleo Juna, but it was way too big.
If I should say anything negative it would be that the straps seems a bit clumsily attached to the cups and that the cups comes up a tiny bit too close to my armpits where the straps are attached. The band continues under the cups with a width like the wires. I think it has a tendency to fold outwards. I have the same issue with my Lula May. A small price to pay for an otherwise perfect fit though. Read more 170 more words
It's not a perfect fit but overall it is ok. And it's such a beautiful bra so I'm going to keep it and live with having to readjust my boobs a couple of times during wear.
The band feels nice and tight and eventhough the straps are not fully adjustable they adjust short enough.
I think I'm between sizes since my Rhea is a little on the small side and this one is maybe a fraction too big. I'm a 32f/ff in Panache. My boobs are very soft and full on the bottom and I Think this bra would perhaps fit better if I was firmer and/or more full on top. There is a little gaping at the top of the cups, mostly when I sit down but this being a plunge, the cups come up fairly high at the straps.
The view from the front looks great but from the side the cups appears a little shallow at the bottom. Nothing that shows under clothing though.
Unfortunately, the size is wrong for me, but it is still a great bra. It looks very sexy and the color is luscious. "Despite" the good looks, the bra is still comfortable.
The straps are not fully adjustable, because the front part is decorated with lace.
Perfection. For the first time I've got "cake-on-a-plate" cleavage (love that term!) After wearing it all day I can say that the band is comfortably snug, the underwires don't dig in at all, anywhere. It gives a really nice rounded look, and the pink color is absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint - and I can't even call it that, really, is that the lace shows through tshirts. But I figured that that would be the case when I got it. Now I want to find one just like it, but either seamless or a smooth satin, so I can look good in tshirts, too.
On the left side (bigger breast) it bulges over the cup a bit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> The other side ist perfect
