Brastop Blog » Curvy Kate Princess in Wine and Grape – REVIEW

Product description:

  • Underwired bra.
  • Maximum support
  • Adjustable shoulder straps
  • Adequate back fastenings – 3 sets of 3 hooks
  • Elegant trimmings with middle bow
  • 79% Polyamide, 15% Elastane
  • Matching panties!!!

My Size: 34G

Fit: Now this bra is a different size to the previous garment I reviewed.  Having said that, the fit was fine.  There’s extra Elastane is this bra than the previous (7% with the last bra, 15% with this one), so there was more stretch but not to the point of discomfort.  I tend to go for the loosest set of hooks because it lengthens the life of the bra but because the band was slightly looser I had to start on the middle hooks which worked quite well with this bra.

The beautiful lace sits perfectly and the spotted design on the cups is just lovely – you can’t help but love the design.

Comfort: I could feel the bra but it is a comfortable fit. Great support, lift and division, and I love my little silk bow dead centre – which is it.

Colour: When I first opened this package I beamed from ear to ear.  The colour is gorgeous, officially Wine/Grape.  The main body of the bra is the Wine colour, with the lace trimmings and central bow in a Grape or deep purple – and Purple just happens to be my favourite colour.

Occasion: I never wait for an occasion to wear my new lingerie, I always test it out the day after arrival which has so far been a work day.  I always love new lingerie, I never fail to Feel Fab when I wear it.  That specific day I wore a new top I had bought, and as my mission for the first three months of the year was to not wear black, my top was an accumulation of cerise, mustard and burgundy, so I was Feeling Fab all round as my new lingerie was the same colour as the cerise on my top.

Now, the panties, love my thongs, but the full on pants that have accompanied my last 2 bras have just been 100% for me.  I’m a curvy woman so when my pants are a beautiful colour with embroidery and bows, size to me doesn’t matter.  These full pants sit on my stomach giving a flattened appearance – so I’m Feeling Fab all round.

Price: The bra is only £17.95, and if you’re going to purchase such a beautiful bra it would be shame to not go for the matching pants for £7.95.
