This bra is gorgeous! It has a pretty metallic fushia colored background with a light icy-pink lace overlay on the cups, along the front of the bra around the wires and extends a bit along the wings. The rest of the wing is made up of a very soft silky nylon fabric that feels wonderful against the skin. Everything about the inside of this bra is soft and smooth. The inside of the cups and straps are extremely soft and don't irritate. The cups are plush and padded in a graduated fashion, with the thicker padding toward the bottom to give a beautiful lift to the breasts. It gives a nice rounded shape and provides wonderful cleavage in lower cut tops. There is a pretty pink bow at the gore with a small crystal tied to each end. It has 3 sets of 4 hooks, which make it feel incredibly stable and supportive against the back. I love this bra! But sadly, it doesn't fit me.
This bra is gorgeous!! The materials are very pretty. It's a metallic copper color with black lace overlay that extends a little bit out onto the wings and along the front bottom edge, making it look very pretty. The rest of the wing is made up of a very silky soft nylon fabric. There are 3 rows of 4 hooks on this bra which help make it feel very stable and supportive on the back. The hook closure is slightly padded so it doesn't dig into the spine. There is a thin bow at the gore with a tiny crystal at the end of each side. The inside of the bra is super soft and plush against the skin. The padding is graduated, being thicker at the bottom and thinning out as it reaches the top of the cup. This really helps to lift the bust and give a beautifully rounded shape with excellent cleavage. This bra is a stunner! Sadly, it didn't fit me.
This is a 28 band if I ever saw one. Really firm and small band, and the cups (near as I can tell) are at least 2 sizes smaller than labelled. So, probably closer to a 28F UK. There is some depth after the pushup padding, but pretty much none at the bottom since there is such heavy padding. The 4 rows of hooks are pretty awesome, though, and the material is nice and sturdy without being scratchy.
This bra would probably work for someone with less upper fullness or firmer tissue than me. The elastic on the edges makes the cups pretty closed. The strappy gore is cute but too wide for me and gives an easy-west look.
It's a very beautiful bronze/copper color with black lace. The cups are padded, not quite as much as a push up, but more than a t-shirt bra(?). The lace, while pleasing to look at was getting a bit irritating because it wraps around to the inside edge of the cup. But maybe that's because the straps were too tight?
The band isn't the tightest 32, I can wear it on the second column.
I love that it's convertible, so I can change the straps to cross the back.
This bra separates my breasts too much for my preference, and the gore is uncomfortable. The wires are too wide for me, however I think if I were to buy my actual size, this bra still wouldn't work properly. Something about the shape is just not compatible with my FOB breasts, I think. It was only $3 on clearance and I got it at the beginning of my journey into my new size but it definitely isn't a good fit.
First off, this bra is /incredibly/ gorgeous. The lace, split straps, and gore detailing are all so cute. It's also pretty high quality, which is what I was most worried about when I ordered it. The lace is lined with a comfy silky fabric. The stripe things at the gore are quite sturdy and made of the same material as the wire casing, and it has reinforced wings and a FOUR hook closure. That's enough reason alone to love it.
With that said, the fit is also pretty good. The band runs big (Maybe even a full size; it doesn't seem quite that big on me but my cup ...fit may be distorting it) and the cup small (at least a full cup size on my very projected breasts, but I think this is going to vary a lot depending on your breast shape). The wires are average width, maybe even a touch narrow, and the cups are shallow and open on the top. There's a line of elastic across the top but I was surprised to find that it didn't cut in or leave a line (any more than the quadboob justified).
The wings and strap positioning (though straps are very wide) work out just perfectly for my frame and tissue distribution, so I don't get any armpit spillage or squidge even though the cups runneth over. (As opposed to cuts like Cleo, where anything that could have been quadboob magically runs to my sides and back instantly.) I adore vertical seam bras, and this is no exception. It gives a beautiful round shape from the front, a slightly flattened side profile, and gorgeous mounded cakes-on-a-plate-style cleavage. Of course, that cleavage is to some extent because I should be in a 30G or even 30GG (which they don't make) instead of this 32F (32G U.S.). Read more 196 more words
Wow, where to start?! This bra was an EPIC FAIL!! Haha!! I knew that it ran small, and after reading so many reviews, I assumed it ran VERY small (in the band anyway)!! So instead of my normal 28G, I sized up and bought a 32G. It's a no-go!! Ironically, the ONLY part of this bra that fits is the band. The cups are entirely too wide, worse than my Tutti Rouge in a 28GG kinda wide!! They wrap around my back!!
All that being said, it seems like a nice, sturdily constructed bra. And I was able to hook the band on the middle row of hooks ...for a snug fit, and the 4 columns of hooks and eyes really make for a comfortable, supportive, "stay-put" fit!! The straps, however, are not fully adjustable, usually a problem for me. The wings seemed a bit tall as well. But the cups are just extremely too wide! I was worried if I ordered the 30G that the band would be too small, and the 32DD would be too shallow in the cups. But I think either one of those sizes would've fit better than this one!! I was still somehow getting major quad boob and my nipples were being cut in half, with a little "orange in a glass" at the bottom of the cups. I just don't know.
I think this bra was intended for a wider, shallower shape - the complete opposite of mine!! Read more 138 more words
Same fit as my other Parisa in a 32G US (Firecracker). Freaky small band (more like a 28), odd cups (two sets of pushup padding), great materials, awesome 4-rows of hooks. More like a 28F UK.
Very pretty, seems well constructed, was listed as a UK 32G, it's actually a US 32G, so 2 sizes too small with an INCREDIBLY (as in I can't even hook it) small 32 band.
