"I had accepted that there was simply nothing left on top. This bra fills out exactly there again, without any padding. And under my shirt you can't see a single edge." — Katrin B.
Sound familiar?
The upper bust looks flatter than it used to. Your old bra compensates with thick foam, but it digs in and shows through your clothes.
In the evening it's the first thing you rip off. And in the mirror you don't see your own shape, you see the shape of the cups.
Round and lifted, exactly where it's missing
The balconette cut lifts from below and fills out the upper bust again. The result looks round and natural, not padded.
Buttery soft, and you barely feel it
The fabric is ultra-thin and unpadded. No bulky foam, no sweating underneath, just soft material against your skin.
Doesn't show under anything
Double-layer means opaque without padding. No cup edge, no seam line, no see-through effect, even under tight or light-colored tops.
Wide straps that don't dig in
The wide front straps spread the weight over a larger area. No red marks on your shoulders after a long day.
Find your size in 3 steps
-
Measure your underbust
Directly beneath the bust, snug. 73 to 77 cm (about 29 to 30 in) gives band size 75. -
Measure your bust
At the fullest point, tape resting loosely. -
Work out the difference
Bust minus underbust. 16 to 18 cm (about 6 to 7 in) gives cup C.

Why this one and not a cheap alternative?
Doesn't run small. True German bra sizes based on tape measurements, not relabeled Asian sizes. Measure once and it fits.
The band doesn't ride up. Riding up almost always comes from a band that is too loose. The elastic underbust band spreads pressure evenly.
Not see-through. The second fabric layer makes the cup opaque without making it thicker. Single-layer bralettes can't do that.
Keeps its shape. Shape-stable when washed at 86°F (30°C) in a laundry bag. No fabric softener and no dryer keeps the stretch intact.

"I'm 54 and there had been nothing going on up top for years. The balconette cut brings exactly that back without me having to build in foam." — Gabriele M. (verified purchase)
"The fabric really is buttery soft. I wear it all day at the office and simply don't notice it." — Nicole B. (verified purchase)
"Fits great and doesn't show through. I would have liked more colors, black and beige is a bit limited. One star off for that." — Kerstin H. (verified purchase)
"I'm a cup E and was skeptical. It holds up well day to day and the wide straps don't dig in. I went straight back for a second one." — Silke T. (verified purchase)
Frequently asked questions
Does it run small? Should I order a size up?
No, it fits true to size and follows real German bra sizing. Measure your underbust and bust and use the size chart. If you fall between two band sizes, choose the smaller one: the band does the supporting work.
Can you see it under a tight T-shirt?
The cups are seamless and double-layer, with no padding edge and no decorative stitching on the cup. Under light and white tops, beige is much less noticeable than black.
Does it hold well in cups D, E or F?
Yes, for everyday wear. The support comes mainly from the underbust band, which is why choosing the right band size matters so much. It shapes and supports but deliberately doesn't look like a push-up. It isn't made for running or HIIT.
Does it flatten the bust?
No. The double-layer, shaped cups preserve your natural shape. Unpadded means nothing adds bulk, but also that nothing squashes you flat, unlike single-layer bralettes, which really do flatten.
Does the underbust band roll up?
Not in the right size. Riding up almost always comes from a band that is too loose and searches for hold around the ribcage. The elastic band spreads pressure evenly rather than at single points.
How do I wash it so it keeps its shape?
Delicate cycle at 86°F (30°C) in a laundry bag, or hand wash. No fabric softener, no dryer, air dry. Ideally don't wear it two days in a row, as the elastane needs time to recover.
Which sizes are available?
Band sizes 75, 80, 85, 90 and 95, each in cups A, B, C, D, E and F. Available in black and in beige.
