View ArticleAddendum: Freya “Faye” Plunge Balcony Bra
Abstract: This post, an addendum to this review, compares the B–G Faye bra and the (far superior) GG–K version. The GG–K bra still runs very large in the band and it’s probably still not worth £31, but...

Abstract: This bra is made of some seriously amazing fabric, but the shape — minimized, spread out, and low — was a dealbreaker for me. Background: This is a moulded cup bra that uses lightweight...
View ArticleReview: Ewa Michalak “HP Szarak” Padded Half Cup Bra
Abstract: Perfect fit, perfect shape, some minor comfort and support issues. The appearance is also a bit old-fashioned. Nonetheless, if you love the nearly-hemispherical boob shape as much as I do,...

View ArticleReview: Miss Mandalay “Paige” Balconette Bra
Abstract: This wasn’t the best match for my boobs, but it’s a pretty bra that gives a natural and rounded (not pointy!) shape. I have to admit, I don’t really understand why it costs as much as it...
