Hasn't set fit

I got my bralette from Salem's Scissors in the mail today! I love the galaxy fabric, and the overall look of the bra. It is adorable and funky, and exactly how I wanted it to look. This bra is so close to fitting, but it is going to need slight alterations before it does.

I love the way the cup projection was designed. Instead of using a seamed cup, the bottom of each cup is pleated many times over, and it seams like it is keeping the cups from riding up on my chest nicely so far. I decided to go for a 32:7, instead of ... a 32:8 like my Dreams and Underthings bralette, because I figured this would help smooth out any wrinkling from the pleats. It looks like I was right in that assumption, so if you buy this bralette you should try going down a cup size or two.

I chose powernet for the band because I knew it was going to be firmer than spandex. I tried to measure the band, but is is different when there is no underwire to keep the cups in place. It does feel fairly firm, although it could be a tad bit tighter. The closure on this band is left handed, which for right now has me fumbling around to close it. It is such a strange feeling! I don't think I've ever owned a bra with the hooks on my left before. Also, there are only 2 rows of hooks.

Unfortunately, the bra gapes on the sides where the cups meet the band. I think it's because the seam where the cradle meets the band isn't aligned with the edge of the cup, if that makes sense. The cradle continues 1 inch past the cup before meeting the bra band. I am going alter it so that the edge of the cups meets the wing seams, and I think that should fix it. I might try going down a cup size for the next one.

Overall, I think this bralette is very well sewn, and pretty well designed. I am going to make that adjustment, and show the shop owner before ordering my next bralette. I really want a light colored one to wear under thin shirts once the dogs days start.

I saw a coupon code on Instagram recently, enter UNICORN to save 25% in her shop.

  It's so lovely. I can't tell you how much I waaaant.

  ^Ditto. I want. She may freak when I ask for a 28" band: I watched her youtube video about vanity sizes. Perhaps sending her photos of the measurement tape around my underbust will be convincing ;-) ;-)

  Love4Pollinators Well according the her measuring video, the band is supposed to be measured at the armpit level so it may not :P
- It's sooooo pretty! I may ask for this as gift lol

  I had a day long back and forth with her when I asked her for a 32 band, and she kept trying to tell me I should be in a 34. I considered just lying and telling her that 32 was what I got using the overbust:underbust method. I did convince her in the end, but the band is just a smidgen too big. It is perfect on the tightest set of hooks.

  That is very pretty, but the prior comments make it very disheartening to try and order something out of matrix sizing from her.

  @DreamsandUnderthings has spoiled us.

  Yeah, trying to order my size was not the easiest thing from her. It's one of those scenarios where it was only really worth it because the bralette was relatively cheap. I wish I had seen that coupon code before ordering, because then it would have been about $26 after shipping. Now that she has made me a bra though, I don't think my next order from her will be as difficult.

  And, your trail blazing has made it easier for the rest of us. Thank you, Biiumers for your efforts!! :-) :-)
- Oh. The hooks on the opposite side is exciting to me. These sort of things help keep our brains healthy. I'm certain such a benefit is unintentional, but nerds like me me love this :-) :-)

  The hooks on the opposite side made me feel like a teenage boy fumbling around!
- The bra is cute! Although it sucks that she tried to convince you what size you should be.

  It looks like she didn't pull on the picot elastic edging while stitching it onto the sides of the cups. Doing that will cause it to contract & then stretch to your body instead of being loose & gappy to begin with. The cradles on the bralettes I made went past the sides of the cups as well but when adding the edging I tugged on it to make the side of the cup contract & then stretch when put on. Idk if that makes sense lol
- lcl0706 Oh! That does make sense!

  lcl0706 I have to say... finding a bralette that can substitute for the ones you made has been difficult 😧 lol
- Hmm... wonder if it would be worth it to ask for a 28E. It's super cute and I want to order one now, especially with that coupon code, but I also don't want to be part of a sudden barrage of customers asking for "weird" sizes and arguing about sizing methods. If only we could just be taken at our word when we tell people our sizes, heh

  I emailed about the Taylor bralette and requested "a band that stretches no more than 30 with 37" bust and 30.5" overbust. " She responded VERY quickly and encouragingly. Two Taylors in process for me. Thanks, Biiumers!

  Biiumers I just finished RN school, passed my licensing exam, am buying a house, and moving in less than 4 weeks. But my new house has a whole room I can dedicate as a sewing/crafts room! So, once the dust of the entire life overhaul I've been doing this year settles, I plan on restarting the Etsy shop :)

  lcl0706 Whoa!! You have been BUSY!! Congratulations!! I'm so excited to see your "dedicated sewing room" creations--sounds wonderful :-) :-)

  Biiumers Idk how I missed this. I was just about to ask you how the cups were. I thought I saw a pic where the cups were 2 different pieces of fabric, but I may have been confusing her with someone else.
  I'm about to place my order now, she said she was able to find stretchy pink & white houndstooth fabric.
  Where do you put the coupon code on etsy? I couldn't find it.

  Biiumers the bralette looks nice on you btw

  Prettyncharmeuse In the Etsy cart, to the right of the item there and underneath the payment options, there is a link that says "Apply shop coupon code" that you have to click to open the field box.
  
  Also, I've seen photos of this bralette as a vertical seamed cup on instagram dated 2016. I think that this pleated cup is an updated design.
  
  Pink & White houndstooth fabric sounds ADORABLE
- Biiumers thanks. I saved $11.75 for the set.

  I got my set today. I should have listened to you, and sized down. I didn't & the cups are too big. 😖
- Prettyncharmeuse Aw man, I always hate when that happens. How was the band though? Did she make it to the size you wanted?
- 1
  
  Biiumers oh, the band was perfect. It's a 28, and there's no hook/eye closure, so it's like a regular bralette.
  I'll add pics in a bit.
- Prettyncharmeuse Did you order a specific size or simply share your measurements? The link houndstooth is adorable! Happy to read the band fit!
- Love4Pollinators I did both. I asked for 28F, and gave her my measurements (underbust 27, bust 34).
  She wants to remake it in 30D, but idk if that'll be too small (in the cups)
- Prettyncharmeuse What is the houndstooth fabric made of? The galaxy print was made of a rayon spandex, so I think I could have gone down another cup size to a 32:6.
