Sevesa

I like this bra a lot. It's very pretty, is simple and elegant, and gives an excellent rounded shape that enhances the silhouette. It also has thick straps and thick wings which give great support without bulges.

I dislike how high the underwires come up. It sometimes causes pain on my sternum or the adjacent ribs. The high gore also appears to sit on some of my breast tissue (tall roots?). There are also big rings that hold the straps on the back; sometimes these dig in.

This is the first bra I ever altered. It had been my favourite bra, and a favourite bra is certainly not a place to learn about bra construction. I messed this one up by removing too much of the band on the right side. It is now tricky to get on because the clasps and hooks are by my shoulder blade. The right cup now pulls back, and the right strap is on the wrong side of my shoulder blade. Meanwhile, it quadboobs on the left. My error made the shape of the cups worse off than they started. It's wearable, but itchy around the straps and wings

Prior to the alteration, it was aesthetically pleasing, comfortable, soft, itch-free, and way too big in the band. Alas.

I wish I could find a Tease Me that fits, but maybe I need to accept that Curvy Kate bras do not work for me. At some point I'd like to try maybe a 28-something. I've also tried 32F.

This one I tried was altered down to ~30E by the previous owner. Unfortunately, these cups don't even pretend to fit my breasts - there's some sort of weird lump-boob effect happening that makes me look misshapen.

I really like this bra. It's soft, comfortable, and fits (!) without leaving my breasts oddly shaped. It gives a nice round shape. The straps are thick and very comfortable. It's the only 32DD I've ever owned that fits!

Panache Sports are comfortable and effective. You can throw high levels of activity at them and they'll rock along with you. There's no cleavage for me in this bra which I appreciate. Great shape too.

This bra has the most potent 'new bra smell' I've ever encountered. It fits fantastically. The fabric is smooth, and it makes my breasts appear very flat/round - so perfect for a t-shirt, just as advertised, I suppose. I dislike the tags and will probably remove them. This bra is a pleasing salmon colour and makes me want sashimi.

I really liked this bra at first. The band is true to size and the cups have a nice and somewhat rounded shape. It's usually comfortable, except when my ribs flare up under the gore. The cups are a tiny bit too big for me, so sometimes the fabric buckles and it changes the shape slightly.

Pros:
- Beautiful and classy
- Band has hardly stretched at all - aged very well!

Cons:
- I dislike the shape made by the cups
- Straps do not adjust short enough
- Gore digs into sternum

Pretty bra, but I can't assess anything else because every part of it is too small for me

This bra is fairly minimising. Neautral shape with subtle cleavage. Possibly better suited to someone who is not full on bottom.
