This is a beautiful, high quality bra. I would suggest it for someone who has more even fullness or FOT. I'm FOB and was never able to fill the top of the cup all the way. This bra does not fit me at all anymore as I have lost weight since I first bough it, but could be great for someone else. This is an unpadded bra.
This bra has the loosest Pour Moi band I've ever tried. I am on the 30-32 barrier and have been able to order a 32 from them consistently for years without problems, but the 32 was way too loose on this one. I think that this is because the band is mostly composed of stretchy, really soft mesh. This results in a band issue that's a lot like the Claudette Dessous, but much less pronounced. The bra also has quite tall cups. They are almost a problem in my front armpit because I'm short and my roots aren't particularly tall or anything. However, this tall cup looks really ...nice from the front. It's reminiscent of Claudette Fishnet's catalog pictures, and looks more like that bra from the front than the really round look the bra has in Pour Moi's stock photos. Since the bra keeps sliding out of my IMF (due to loose band, cups that are wider than my root, and lack of lower projection), and the cup is so tall, I can't tighten the straps as much as I'd like to give the cup the look I want.
The gore on this bra also doesn't tack. It seems to be because of the band issue and the lack of projection at the bottom of the cup. It could also be because the cups are slightly too small for me, or because my boobs are too close in the middle for this bra. I've never had issues with that at the gore before, but I've been encountering a lot more scaling issues since I moved into 30H/HH territory.
These straps are fully adjustable and have helpful crinkles on them so they won't slip once adjusted, which is pretty awesome. The gray here is darker than the rest of the bra, but it doesn't take away from the overall futuristic look of this bra in the color I chose. Which is awesome. The gray is very, very pale and almost metallic in finish. The bra looks SO nice and sleek, which can be hard to find around this cup-band ratio. The fabric neither looks nor feels cheap, and all of the mesh is delightfully soft.
After taking in band, the bra fits great, with no slippage or anything. Shallowness at root is also a lot less of an issue, now that I've also bent the wires at the bottom. The bra now stays in my IMF a lot better. Read more 298 more words
I had such high hopes for this bra! It seemed super pretty - and I was not too disappointed on this aspect. It seemed to have a nice shape - and what a shock! My boobs morphed into perfect pyramids - from absolutely every viewing angle. I'd be curious to know if cup size is a factor because judging from Pour Moi's photos, it seems like a total shape change. Comfort-wise, I can only observe that the band is pretty rigid and the cups are quite wide - and probably somewhat shallow, as I could not fill their bottom. However, if you look at the stock photos carefully, you'll see that neither can the models...
This is my favorite bra that I own! It fits me almost perfectly. However, if DEFINITELY runs big. I wear a 32J usually, and this bra is too big in the band. The cups fit pretty well with only a teeny bit of quadding on my larger side. This is not noticeable through clothes however. The wires are extremely narrow (they sit almost on the front of my rib cage) which is a huge plus for me.
