About me: Tall roots, low set, centre-full, projected but self-supporting, even vertical fullness, average-to-narrow roots but functionally narrow, somewhat close set, firm tissue. Average width shoulders but muscular-ish. ABTF calculator size: 26J/JJ, best fitting bra: Comexim Pearl Flower Mint 3HC in 60N.

Overview: I really love this bra, it's now in my regular rotation of every day bras. I bought the 65J size as a random guess based on my size in Gorsenia, and it worked out well. It's super comfy and pretty supportive despite the gore not tacking. I think the cups might be slightly too shallow, which is why the ... gore doesn't tack, but the width is perfect, so I am hesitant to try going up a size. It has a bit of an old fashioned kind of look to it that reminds me of the Triumph Doreen, which is fine with me because the Doreen is a guilty pleasure bra of mine, haha. It has a gently or softly pointed silhouette under clothes, but it's very subtle, not torpedo-y or bullet bra like at all. I just mention it because it isn't as round as other Polish bras I've tried.

I have never had a half-stiffened bra before and I really like it. It combines the stiffer feeling support under the boobs like a padded/foam bra, but then has a lot of breathability and airiness to it like an unlined bra because of the cup being 1/3 stretch lace. The lace on top is very stretchy, but it has an elastic along the edge that might cut in if you're more FOT than I am since the cup is quite closed on top with it.

Details: This is a half-stiffened bra, which means it's constructed of a stiffer foam/padding along the bottom and sides of the cup, but it has stretch lace for the top 1/3. The foam/padding along the bottom of this bra is thinner than in other bras with padded cups like Comexim, Ewa, or Parfait. I'm not sure if that is specific to this brand or if it's just the half-stiffened style. I think the way the stiffened part of the cup is made this bra would probably be really good for someone with outer fullness, since the padding is along the outer cup and then tapers in towards the gore. The straps are sort of stretchy, and the band is fairly stretchy too. The lace this bra is made out of is very soft and not scratchy at all, and it's also pretty flat so it doesn't show under clothes (so far on me it hasn't. I haven't tried any thin t-shirts though). For size I ordered my Gorsenia size of 65J (which is a 30GG UK) and I think that was pretty accurate, although it is just a touch too small in the cups and the gore doesn't tack, which might not be a problem at all if you've got outer fullness, since I think this bra might have been designed with outer fullness more in mind.
