Got this Victoria Secret Underwired Very Sexy High Neck Lace Bralette (I believe, a discontinued bra) I don't hate all Victoria Secret bras. I Despise the narrow size range and poor fit advice and often the quality and price points, but I do appreciate that when I have last looked they have expanded beyond their t-shirt and super push up bras. I always hope they will expand their band and cup sizes, because even when I have found bras from there that work for me, usually the band will be too big. I have been losing weight, so I somehow wound up on their site looking for discounted ... bras around side 30DD - 32DDD. I did see some variety and decent sales, but did not find anything to get that would even maybe fit for breif bedroom attire. A few hours later I saw this bra posted on a secondhand seller page new with tags for cheap and decided to bite. It came in like a day, from just across the state. I somehow forgot I ordered it, so getting a bra in my mailbox always makes me happy.
The bra itself seems okay. Maybe not the best quality, but I was curious. I figured that the material would be a semi Stretchy fine lace, which it seems to be which allows for my volume that otherwise probably would not have fit. The lace does not feel too scratchy. There are a few loose threads which it may have arrived to the origenal seller like this (I saw reviews of similar sale bras with complaints of feeling cheaply made) that or perhaps it's from being tried on by the seller. The underwire looks kind of odd, but is not as uncomfortable as expected. It does help push my breasts sort of in a wonky direction, but the matetial is not so stretchy that it contains it somewhat. The underwire is lower than the IMF of one of my breasts, but that almost always happens (its an inch smaller in almost all messurments and higher up on my chest than my other side) Each cup is about 6 inches wide. The "height" luckily is not much taller than my vertical chest (nipple to nape of neck) measurment. The band is not especially firm so i new it would be a bit big there. The straps are thin, and come down to form a Triangle at the band on each side which I have liked in some of my past bras. The straps almost don't adjust enough for me. I have no cleavage in this bra but there isn't supposed to be. It somewhat reminds me of a very sexy balconett bra I had from here, although a totally different style, it had a similar strap band cup width and black lace over nude material to it. I do not adore this bra. It's not the most comfortable, getting a tad itchy at my neck. It's also not a great fit, but I am debating wearing it for a date night. I do hope Victoria Secret continues to expand their bras sizes, styles, and models if they expand (I'm not sure what is up with the company, but that's for another post.) This bra is sort of cute and not horribly unsupportive for short term use. I would have been unhappy if I had paid full price or even close to it, and I am greatful I got a good deal on it that I'm satisfied enough. I Hope to get an xs cosabella bralette some day!
