I recently bought the black Paris in 32GG and it is smaller in the cup than my old cerise Paris in 32G 🙈Dorothy Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09820009282218419179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-85441553129435133902015-09-06T18:14:14.810-04:002015-09-06T18:14:14.810-04:00I don't know why it's cheap and cheerful o...I don't know why it's cheap and cheerful or mortgage-priced with the narrow, projected bras. And I have to say that the sizing on MM seems even smaller than when I bought the cerise one which is why it's key to size up adequately. I don't know if I should apologize or thank you for the bra enabler comment :-)K.Linehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350615302797686048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-4550590027024211792015-09-06T13:17:42.756-04:002015-09-06T13:17:42.756-04:00What a great idea!

I did wonder on occasion whether a narrow, projected shape could find a middle ground between Cleo and Empreinte's price points. <br /><br />My first and last Miss Mandalay set was the cerise with leopard print accents and the matching bikini brief. After reading your review, I had to try it. It never fit right, though. What you said about it running a band and at least one cup size small makes sense to me. <br /><br />I'm not thrilled with the currently available colors, either. Maybe when they have something more appealing, I'll try them again. God, you're such a bra enabler! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-50645343713583019252015-09-03T21:19:58.625-04:002015-09-03T21:19:58.625-04:00I have tried the Capucine and it didn't look g...I have tried the Capucine and it didn't look good on me. It's slightly too wide and there's not enough immediate projection. The fabric is also vaguely napped and that can drag on clothing.<br /><br />You're spatial reasoning is good in this instance. From that photo, I agree the bra looks to be lacking in immediate projection (what you've described). It doesn't bear this out in real life though, as the gore tacks quite well in the right size (implying adequate projection). What I will say is that, while this bra provides great lift and support, it doesn't bring my breasts as front and centre as do most of the Empreintes and Cleos. It is a bit wider in the fit. Which is, I sense, partially what accounts for what you've noted.K.Linehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350615302797686048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-6249251956319173032015-09-03T17:45:57.612-04:002015-09-03T17:45:57.612-04:00Have you ever tried the Empreinte Capucine?

I've been trying to learn more about bra fitting from your descriptions and would've guessed from the stock photo that the part going outwards from the gore was too shallow. My visual/spatial imagination has never been the greatest, though. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
