I tried a boudoir when they first came out and found it rubbed in the same places as a panache, but only more so - so have avoided anything bravissimo own brand ever since. However seeing as they are stocking less of the Freya each season, I'm finding increasingly difficult to get anything. Thinking of giving them another try, but don't want another expensive mistake!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-66328936977044007752012-04-03T14:09:13.851-07:002012-04-03T14:09:13.851-07:00So did you buy the Boudoir Beau?

Since the Boudoir Beau looks so great on you AND looks pretty, I hope you took it home. That, to me, is like a happy ending to a fairy tale. I hadn't heard of Bravissimo, a brand I haven't seen in the U.S. I just checked their website, and they don't have any stores here. Since I live in a major metropolitan area, I have the luxury of shopping for bras in person, but even in the Bay Area, it's a challenge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-42984789986956347882012-02-11T12:27:45.495-08:002012-02-11T12:27:45.495-08:00I've not tried Bravissimo's own brand. How...I've not tried Bravissimo's own brand. How would you compare it to Freya size-wise? Tighter in the band or cup...? I've been reluctant to try them after my disastrous Flirtelle encounter - I ordered my usual Freya size, & literally could not even get my boobs into it. It ran so much smaller, I didn't even know where to begin.I would've had to go up at least 2 cup sizes, & maybe a band size too. I'm wondering if I'd have the same sizing issue with Bravissimo's range.ComfyCurvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15066188358572221432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-41421404972658482862011-12-10T05:51:05.633-08:002011-12-10T05:51:05.633-08:00Christine, I didn't notice the band being loos...Christine, I didn't notice the band being loose. I think the bra itself just sits a bit low--looking at the side photo, I notice that the band is not riding up at all, but rather sitting a bit below where my bra bands usually fall. I'm guessing this is meant to improve the fit--since it's a plunge bra, it can be a harder fit if it pushes the boobs up to give tons of cleavage. Just a theory, but I think you're right that it sits a bit lower!Bras I Hatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692999972337398680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-41826355654245477562011-12-10T05:46:55.262-08:002011-12-10T05:46:55.262-08:00Darlene, thank you!

I have been resisting Twitter, I know I should think about getting an account though. <br /><br />tongueincheck, I'm so jealous that you can fit in the Alana! I did try the Dotty Spot a while back, without my camera, and agreed that though it was a little pointier, it was a good kind of pointy--sort of 'retro' as it is marketed, and looked very attractive. Definitely give the Boudoir Beau a try!Bras I Hatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692999972337398680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-20877918203745019482011-12-10T05:09:13.529-08:002011-12-10T05:09:13.529-08:00I'm a die hard bravissimo fan.

I love every bra of their own brand that I've tried and I appreciate that most of their bra are available up till a K cup. I do have to go up a cup in the Alana (which I'll keep buying until they stop producing it) but it was the first bra I had which scored so high on being comfortable/giving a good shape/being pretty at the same time. I also like the Dotty spot and Flirty frills bra. Those two, especially the Dotty spot, give a pointier shape, but I don't care. At least, it's nice and upfront, not the horrible side cones. You make me wanna try the Boudoir beau on my next London stay!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-51105453735351727512011-12-10T04:19:17.083-08:002011-12-10T04:19:17.083-08:00I found an elf shoe bra recently, too, but I only ...I found an elf shoe bra recently, too, but I only just now got the words for it from you!

Was the Bettie Mae somewhat loose in the band for you? Maybe it's just me, but it looks like the bra may be slipping down a bit on you. That could just be the way it's designed to look, though.<br /><br />I tried on the Boudoir Beau when I was at Bravissimo, and I agree, it's a very pretty and even comfy bra. I didn't end up getting it because I really just needed a "wear every day" bra, but I'm keeping it in mind for future purposes!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08928146749204392195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-79536158229767184432011-12-08T14:04:20.098-08:002011-12-08T14:04:20.098-08:00Agreed on the stiff fabric--it's sort of stand...Agreed on the stiff fabric--it's sort of standing up on its own at that pointy bit. <br />Actually most of Bravissimo's bras have reasonable-width underwires, which is a nice change and a relief. I didn't take a side photo in the Alana, but you can see in the Boudoir Beau the wires are not too wide. <br />Glad the review was helpful! :)Bras I Hatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692999972337398680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-18824459041266077282011-12-08T11:58:52.261-08:002011-12-08T11:58:52.261-08:00I laughed at your elf shoe comment!

I suspect that if the fabric on that bra wasn't so stiff, it would give a really good, natural shape. <br /><br />The Boudoir Beau looks great, I love the natural shape. And it looks really supportive! And I saw that the Fannie Mae's wires didn't go all the way around to your back, that has to be a nice change.<br /><br />I love that you post reviews like this, because I for one have no chance to visit a Bravissimo in the near future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
