Third time's a charm?


Unfortuntely, no, and it was at this opportunity, I decided that perhaps Cotton On Body, wasn't for me. This was the worst fit of all three I tried on. There was NO support to speak of, shape was horrid, it was sort of... flappy... at top. Where the lace is on the cup, it didn't mold to the breast AT ALL. It just sort of... hung. This was by far the worst of them all, and I don't think I'll be returning to Cotton on Body anytime soon (not for bras anyway-they DO have a wonderful selection of briefs and sleepwear however).

Cotton On - "Princess Lace Contour"


Very odd bra! I tried this one on after the White T-shirt racer back one, expecting probably a similar fit. WRONG.

Well. Not wrong in a good way unfortunately. Wrong in that they didn't fit in exactly the same manner, but still bad fit. This one almost had potential, as perhaps a cheap little bra designed to be worn for ten minutes before some business time, of which, hey, absolutely nothing wrong with that in my book! But you couldn't wear it to dinner before your sexy time, in preperation for an immediate strip tease back home, it just wouldn't support you that long.

It actually had a really interesting design in that there was heaps of support on the undersides of the breasts, on the outer toward the armpit , succeeding in lifting and giving Va-voom factor, but you would spill out the top eventually (say,after more than ten minutes wearing it). Massive cleavage factor, which was kind of cool, but just not practical. And unfortunately, that's just not enough for us big boob gals.

Price: $10.00 (on sale) RRP $19.95

Size range 8 - 14DD

Colour Range- range of colours available from white, black, the one above is called "Fluoro Purple" even though it looks like a hot pink. It comes in a ton of other colours also.

Cotton On Body - Essential T-Shirt with Racer back clip


cotton on, originally uploaded by dataceptionist.

This was my first foray into Cotton On Body to actually think about buying something for day-to-day wear. My only other experience with the store was a hasty trip before a dirty weekend away to buy something sexy, and cheap.
The prices are one of the reasons to have a look at Cotton On Body, they're incredibly cheap by market comparison. The thing that will probably bring you into the store however is the colour and variety. Everything is coloured and patterned, which is a nice change to Bras N Things (but they're getting there too)

This bra was terrible, I think it probably works well as a small bust bra, but they didn't really allow for the fuller nature of the bust in the larger size. The sales girl readily admitted they're just branching into the larger cups so maybe there is hope in the future.

Price: $19.95

Size range 8 - 14DD

Colour Range- range of colours available from white, black, nude, pink, aqua, purple (two shades) and peach.
Other accessories- This range of bras does come with matching briefs in a "seamless" style in most colours.
