  Those straps look tiny. How do they feel?

  the straps don't bother me much but I'm self supporting so they don't pull the straps. I definitely don't think this will work with heavy boobs.

  Probably not. I’m just surprised they said it is engineered to support with such tiny straps and band.

  From the brand pics it looks like they use wider straps for bigger sizes.

  I think what I'm surprised at is the white clasp. I thought a bra at that price point would have dyed to match fasteners.

  I remember petite collegiate had one of this brand's bras and reviewed it and got a lot of kick back from ABTF because commenters said it mostly looked half assed, half done. Loose threads and uneven stitching, thread colors that don't match, uneven cups, bunched fabric, etc. I wasn't impressed back then and am still not considering the price point of this line as well. It's a lovely concept, just doesn't look "engineered" or well thought out, really.

  oh dear that is disappointing about the quality and the discomfort from the elastic! This is the second time in a week that I've seen someone mention one of their "supportive" bralettes not feeling actually supportive. I realize sometimes customers have a more expansive idea than bralette-makers of what is meant by support--they may expect actual lift, a degree of shaping, etc. as opposed to simply containment and relative immobilization. But a successful indie maker should probably take that into account, and realize that a bralette that offers just a light hold should not be marketed as "extra supportive"...! If I see that I expect it to really do a solid job.

  If it's any consolation, in all the stock photos I do not see the decorative straps fitting across the full part of the breast. They seem designed to sit further above your cleavage.

  cupandahalf at the very least they could have used white thread on the white fastener... it’s really not hard to change thread colors

  I wish I looked at all the bralettes before I ordered this one. Some do have thick bands but this one was on sale. I thought with it being an "I" cup the band/straps would be thicker than shown. I can't imagine the larger bust models are comfortable. If I wasn't self supporting or not center full this would not contain my boobs.

• ......aw man...I'm thoroughly disappointed after seeing this......the price point is ridiculous for something that looks like it has been sloppily thrown together and graded by just extending the pattern via 5 centimeters for each size...no curves.....wow....well if you can afford this price point and like watching for sales, check out www.impishlee.com they will also do custom sizes and they have you customize it, what fabrics and colors you want etc. They do both bras and bralettes.
