This is one of the cutest bras I've ever seen. I love the way it looks and from a distance I love the way it looks on. It feels good when I first put it on too. Really supportive feeling without looking like a grandma. I've attempted to wear it 2 times other than just trying it on. It hurts me REALLY badly right on either side of my breast bone on both sides. I mean to the point that I cut up a piece of really soft thick fabric and folded it there to try to make it bearable to go ... out with my husband wearing it. It didn't last a few hours and even with that cushion there, I took it off in the car on the way home and not for anything exciting lol. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> I even wonder if it is something that could be fixed by bending the wires at all if the bra fits otherwise. I do have a sort of prominent breast bone, so maybe this just won't work for me.

As for the cups, they feel like they fit. But when I look at them I'm just not so sure. The bottom of the cups look they fit to my untrained eye and so does the very top edge of the cup made of lace lays perfectly. So the part that is a problem is the seam right where the lace meets the rest of the cup almost seems like the lace should have been sewn a little tighter. I THINK that my breasts are "even" shaped but I could be wrong. I've thought about taking that part apart and sewing the lace more flat, but the gore pain has stopped me. I don't want to mess with it if it is just that the bra doesn't fit or work for me because then it wouldn't work for me or anyone else.

I bought this new from eBay, so no return.

Pros: Looks precious, playful, and flirty
Sturdy and supportive.
Straps are wide enough that they feel good on the shoulders.

Cons: Lace doesn't seem to match the rest of the cup in width. Maybe it is just poor craftsmanship on this particular bra that I got and usually it doesn't do that. Maybe there is nothing wrong with the seam and it just doesn't work for my breast shape or size. It just doesn't seem to look right in that spot.

Gore is really painful on my breast bone. It doesn't dig in anywhere else but it is significant and too painful to wear as-is.

The actual body of the cup has a sort of see through fine mesh material that overlays the cup the materials hate really is the cup and touches your breast. This material is loose and causes small wrinkles on mine when it is we worn and makes it look like the cup is wrinkled but it is only the lace on top. The cup itself under the lace is smoothe.

The wires MIGHT be a little too wide for me under the arm. It isn't uncomfortable and I didn't know until I took photos, but it looks like it is made for breasts that have more "meat" up under the arm than I do. It is weird because if I just touch my bare breast to see where it ends, I can feel it all the way to the middle of my armpit. Not in the pit, but in line with the middle of it if that makes sense.

This is one of the cutest bras I've ever seen.

I bought this new from eBay, so no return. I didn't feel like the fit was perfect when I tried it on, so since it was brand new I put it for sale on my local Craigslist for the price I paid total, hoping to avoid the hassle of shipping. It was the most bizarre experience of my bra life. The ad was flagged and removed and I asked why and was told that I was not really a woman selling a bra because a woman would know that a 28GG doesn't exist and that any bra would be measured using the metric system. AND this was a complaint by another woman. I finally convinced them I was a woman and it was a real bra so they stopped flagging it. That is when I got 2 different requests from men asking me to take photos in the bra and finishing the request off by saying, "I promis I'm not creepy." Um ok. Needless to say I decided to just try to make the bra work because trying to sell it drew out the crazies and I didn't want to go there anymore. Note to self: Never ever ever try to sell a bra on Craigslist again.

This is a beautiful and very comfy feeling Chantelle bra. It is not even close to my size. But it was just too nice not to pick up so that I could offer it to someone who was trying to find one. It seems very supportive. The 3 hooks are very sturdy, as is the back mesh type material that speeches across your back. The cup is a very soft t-shirt material. I think this would work great under any clothes because there is no lace except on the side boning area and the gore. It is just enough lace that ... you feel sexy and pretty but not enough that your wardrobe is limited. The bow and the contrasting stitches along the length of the 100% fully adjustable straps are really cute.

I would have really loved to find these in my size. I'm not sure that I can get that lucky, but hopefully I can help someone else who needs a nice bra at a good price. I found the exact same bra, same size, in a baby blue and I will be listing them both. They both look amazing and you really can't even tell if they've been worn or not. There is definitely no obvious wear and tear on them. I've got to get some bras that do fit me so I thought that it might help out to offer these for sale and then be able to use the money earned towards a well-fitting bra.

This is a very comfortable bra and although I am having to fasten on the tightest set of hooks, it fits fairly well. I do think that the cups are a bit odd. There is a mesh sling type support inside the cup on the outer bottom of the cup. It feels great support-wise. But I can see that indentation by looking at the cup in the mirror. It goes in where it is supported and then spills over in the rest of the breast. I have slight, very light quad boob, but it isn't noticeable and wouldn't really bother me. ... But there is wrinkling in the band under the arm right beside but behind the cup. And the bottom of the cup has some wrinkling in the fabric but I don't understand why because as I said the breast bulges out from the support sling and has a little quad boob. I can stretch the band tighter and the underarm wrinkling remains so maybe it is normal and not a fit issue? The underwire width is very comfortable and feels spot on. Gore is the first time a bra has ever fit as it is supposed to, and I can definitely tell the difference. I didn't know what I was missing. I don't know if the cup fit is right or not but it does look just a little "off." My husband loves this bra in shirts because he describes it as a very "natural" look.

Baby Blue colorway

34B bra made by Pei Lei but I don't know what the model name was.

This company may not even be in business anymore, I'm not sure. I just can't find it at all and the website on the tag shows a website that isn't valid.

If they did go out of business then I wouldn't be too surprised. It doesn't appear to be the best quality. It is cute and all but it is the little details that didn't impress me. It has a sheer black ruffle that comes out the top of the cups. It looks great on one side but the other ... side isn't so much a ruffle but more of a straight piece of sheer fabric just sitting there. It has really cute double straps and that is great and a problem at the same time. It is not going to feel good if you have heavy breasts and need the weight to be supported and not dig into your shoulders. It seems like they tried with this bra but if they were in business I would probably steer clear of them altogether. This is one of my pre-implant revision bras. I was technically a 32D according to VS, although that was likely wrong. Since I couldn't find those sizes locally, I would just go to the store and try to sister size my bras to make them work. Now that my size increased when they fixed the capsular contraction, none of my old bras fit so I'm adding them but I'll have to list them also.

***Major con about this bra is that it was obviously not washed properly as the moulded cups have changed shape. It isn't as obvious when it's on, but it is when it isn't being worn. The inside of the cups are a tad strange too. One cup is normal where the lining is "attached" to the cup so it is a part of it. But the other side the fabric is separate so it looks loose. I'm not sure if that was due to improper care or if it was just made that way or what. It doesn't affect the fit, but you can pinch the fabric and pull it away from the inside of the cup. That is kind of hard to describe so I don't know if it makes any sense. I tried to take pics showing what it looks like.

Pink with black polka dots colorway

This bra is not owned any more

Updated on Dec 30, 2014 Flag this

I bought this bra as a beautiful but comfy t-shirt bra. The majority of the cup is very smooth so it works under most shirts. The top and sides of the cup have lace and jewels so if your shirt is extremely tight then they might show the texture under a shirt, but otherwise it really works as a t-shirt bra. The band seems to be stretching out to me, but to be fair I have alternated between this bra and one other for the last 2 months because I don't have any others that are close to fitting and can't justify the expense of ... buying other bras for my rotation that also don't fit properly. Pros: absolutely gorgeous, color is light enough that it doesn't show under most light clothing, the fabric is quite comfortable, it's supportive without a block of push up pad in it that would hoist your boobs up to your chin. Cons: I don't think this is a problem with the bra but probably just with the fit because I bought the largest they had in the smallest band size, but the underwire in the cleavage pokes into the bottom of the center of my breasts so the gore couldn't sit flat if it wanted to. I assume this means that the cup is quite a bit too small. The poking isn't uncomfortable but it looks silly. Because the band is not the right size, I find myself having to bend over and pour myself into the bra because I have some spillage underneath throughout the day. And try as I might to pull everything from the middle back into the cup, it just doesn't work. I have a small bit of quad boob on top, but the real problem is the quad boob in the lower center of the cleavage area. I didn't even know this was a thing. My husband doesn't notice it but when I look down I see it in my cleavage. I guess in this area it would be more appropriately called "double cleavage" rather than quad boob, lol.

***Edited the bra measurements because I made a mistake on one of them the first time. Also added more photos showing the problems that I have with the way this particular bra fits (or doesn't fit) my body.
