Cupcake by Elle Macpherson


This bra was so pretty and I liked the colour so much that I just had to buy it when I saw that Elle Macpherson had brought out a range that was for fuller cups.

Unfortunately I think that the fuller cups must have been based on The Body herself's fuller cups. The F cup was NOTHING like an F and there was none of the support that is required from bras when you get up to that size.

So to the score card......

Support & Comfort- 2 / 5

O
verall Look
- 4 / 5
Very pretty. Only the ill fit that loses points. Little bit saggy.

W
earability
- 2 / 5
You could wear it for a sexy night, but that would be it. Would have to be a "put on in the bathroom" number.

Price - RRP $79.95

Size Range - 10-16 D-G

Colour Range - Comes in the pink above and a red/charcoal combo.

O
ther Accessories -
Matching brief and stretch lace G String. Both have a "vanilla" insert panel in keeping with the name **edit - Sized in S/M/L/XL

Panache - Porcelain - Moulded Strapless



I should have known from the pictures, and perhaps of all the pics I found online of this bra, this one isn't very fair to it. But it is in the nude, whereas they mostly are in a chocolate colour.

This bra was very expensive, and has been immenseley disappointing. I have actually found myself reaching for the two I was trying to replace, rather than wear this one.

I purchased in nude and black, and both are bad as each other.


Support & Comfort- 3 / 5
I find myself tugging it up
Overall Look - 3.5 / 5
I suppose it could look worse, but as in the pic above, it doesn't lift the breast enough, just sort of covers them.
Wearability - 3/ 5 
One of the reasons I was replacing my finelines' bras was that the foam had sort of folded under the weight, at the underwire under the breast. 
I wil disclaimer that the only reason I strayed from Fine Lines was that they don't go above an E. Which is very disappointing.

Price - retails at $99.50 which is a lot when its not an awesome fit.
Size Range - 8, 10, 12, 14, 16D-G, Great range at least.

Colour Range -
Black, White and Nude

Other Accessories
-
There is a matching G, brief and a corresponding T-shirt bra.
