I got this bra for it's "miracle" cleavage style low gore. The gore is quite short, so that delivers. It's gorgeous, like a lot of Japanese bras, and I dig the design. Unfortunately, this plunge-y style is a shape mismatch for me. I think someone with more outer fullness than inner fullness would benefit more from this bra, cuz it scoops your tissue inwards. For me, someone who's more center full, the cups cut into and give me quite a bit of quad boob. I think it should be less of an issue when I'm not on my period when the girlies are smaller. The lace design also helps smooth the quadding under clothing. IF you'd like cleavage, adding a cookie/padding should help you achieve that.
While this bra is listed on Rakuten as a 3/4 cup, it has a much lower gore than most UK and Polish balconettes/half cups I own or know of. OMG finally no more stabby, wide gores that side on my tissue! The wires are also not as stiff. The band is relatively stretchy too but within the supportive range. The cups are narrow, I'd say they are comparable to my Comexim basic 3HC (30GG from Breakout Bras). (Volume wise might be smaller? Not by that much.) The Reine Clemons has just enough projection, immediate and at the apex. It's an ABTF imo. And it's beautiful!!
This is a plunge with quite a low gore. I love the gold and navy embroidery. Like 2 other Japanese bra I own, the band is relatively stretchy, and wires are more bendy, so it's pretty comfy. I think the plunge style is a shape mismatch for me, but the Amalia is better for center fullness than the Reine Clemons. Loosening the shoulder straps allowed the cups to be more open and reduced quadding. I think it should fit pretty well when my breasts are smaller not during my period. Again, love the design and low gore.
I'm a shallow 32C and D70 seems to work well for me (no need to go to C75)! This is probably because this bra is *heavily* padded along the bottom and sides, so it really pushes everything to the center. Unlike the Mode Marie bras I've tried, Risa Magli bras seem to have only one plastic side bone on either side (Mode Marie has 2), but I don't notice any decrease in the ability to keep the sides looking flat.
A beautiful and soft bra, but I think the cups were a bit small for me even with the padding removed. If you do like padding, this is the bra for you, as there are two layers! (Both removable) I'd classify the gore on this bra as "low", but really, it's barely there--it's just the fabric of the band running across, with a little ribbon and lace sewn to it. This bra has a lace/mesh edging on the cups, and it's a bit annoying to wear. It's not that it's uncomfortable, but the fabric is thin and it's easy for it to be pressed against the inside of the cups when you're putting it on if you don't adjust it.
Well, this was part of an experiment to see if I would fit into F65 or G65 in Japanese sizes, and sadly looks like F65 is not my size. This fits similar to my Simone Perele 30DD, though I think the underwires are a bit narrower - my larger breast is falling out through the middle. The band is a little on the smaller side for a 30 band, which is great for me. I'm really sad this one didn't fit because it's a really pretty bra, and other than the quadboob it's very comfy.
this bra's band fit's me well, but the cup is too shallow for me. it has pads in it, which make adjust easy, and the lace looks extremely pretty, the band can stretch for a little makes comfortable.
