Leopard four-way deep-v push up bra - bra discontinued by Baci - review by Kissy

Packaging:
The Leopard Four-Way Deep V Push Up Bra (34D) by Baci came in a nice sealed plastic bag with tissue wrapping and a Baci sticker on the center, holding the tissue paper wrapping in place. There was also balled-up tissue paper inside the cups, holding the cup shape. It was a very nice presentation.

The item had a tag attached to it by a thin white string. The string was tied on, so it didn't puncture the fabric (no hole). The tag shows the model picture, the style, and size description.

For storage, I fold the bra cups within each other and set loosely in my bra drawer.

Made in China
Price: $10.99
Contents: Leopard Four-Way Deep V Push Up Bra (34D)


Care/ Maintenance:
The care instructions for this item: hand wash warm with like color and line dry.

To maintain the bra cup shape, I recommend folding it nicely and not squishing the cups. It is very important not to dry the bra in the dryer. Once a bra goes in the dryer, they are almost always doomed, especially a padded bra.

Design/Shape/Size:
This bra comes in (4) color options: pink/leopard print, black/zebra print, black, white
It is available in the sizes: 32A, 32B, 32C, 34B, 34C, 34D, 34DD, 36B, 36C, 36D, 36DD, 38B, 38C, 38D, 38DD.

Beware: on the main page the bra sizes are not in order from small-large!(I listed all of the sizes in order above, since it is weird on the main page. You have to read through all the options so you don't accidentally miss your size!)

I ordered the 34D bra size. The bra is true to size! YAY! And they have actual bra sizes - hooray - not just S, M, L bra sizing! How does that work anyway? We all have such different bodies! Anyway, the 34D fit perfectly - just as a bra should! I am thrilled the sizing is right on!

The sizing selection is decent for average-breasted ladies, but of course there are always outliers who don't fit the normal sizes. In my opinion, since this bra is advertised as a "push up" bra, there should be more "A" options (need at least 34A, 36A and 38A).

I love the color combination of this bra option. The hot pink and the leopard are a SEXY duo! The front of the cups are leopard print as well as the tiny cup seperator. The entire rest of the bra is hot pink (including the adjustable straps, inside the cups and the back strap!). The stitching through-out the bra is hot pink as well. It is a nice contrast against the leopard print.


The name of the bra (Leopard Four-Way Deep V Push Up Bra) is a little misleading. Why? Well, the "push up" is a HUGE exaggeration! There is NO "push up" WHAT-SO-EVER going on here!

What is not misleading in the name: "Deep V" and "Four-Way". The "Deep V" style is true! I love the "Deep V" look. It is great to wear with "V" neck shirts and dresses, or anything low cut. You won't see your connecting fabric this way! The "Four-Way" option is awesome too! The straps are completely removable and adjustable. This bra can be worn 4 ways:
1. Standard, Typical Bra Style
2. Criss-Crossed in the Back
3. Strapless
4. Halter

There is a care tag in the typical bra location on the back of the bra, it is a soft silky tag. The hook and eye closures in the back are adjustable. There are 2 hooks and 6 eyes for 3 choices of size settings. The clasps are sturdy and secure.


Material/Texture:
Material Makeup: 90% polyester, 10% spandex
Weight: 0.1 lb

The bra is very soft when wearing and touching. The fabric is smooth to the touch. The cups are thin and flexible. They can be squished and molded. There is limited padding, so the cups are very moldable. The bra is very light weight, due to the limited padding.

The bra is a bit flimsy and doesn't feel as though it will last forever. It is definitely not a $60 bra, but for the price, it feels like it will last long enough for me to be satisfied. The seams and stitching are light pink and are not overly impressive, but typical to lingerie. They are not coming undone, or loose but don't feel high-quality either.

The underwire is thin and comfortable. The underwire is secure in the fabric and does not poke out. The back bra strap is very stretchy and accommodating.

Personal Experience :
Although it claims "push up bra" in the name of the bra, it isn't! I have other "push up" bras that actually PUSH UP! Those bras have a large cushion or padding and are a lot thicker. This bra doesn't give my D's any push up, but doesn't let them sag wildly either!

The support isn't the best support I've ever had, but not the worst either. It is mid-supportive. I imagine the smaller sizes are naturally a bit better support, as well as the larger sizes a little bit less support. It is not that it is super cheap, it is just thinner than my more supportive bras.

Beyond those gripes, I love everything else about this bra! The color and pattern, the fabric, the price. I absolutely love the "Four-Way" option and the "Deep V" - gives you a lot of clothing options to wear with this bra! It is great for an everyday bra. I will be getting the 34D in the other colors and will try the other styles from the Baci line too!

UPDATE: Now that I've tested all three types of bras, I thought I would make a comparison chart for those who are considering purchasing one (or all) of these:



Conclusion: ★★★★

I still love my leopard deep-v push up. It has been washed multiple times and has held up pretty well. I wear it a couple of days a month. I also have the White Four Way Convertible Bra and the Hot Pink Maximum Cleavage Bra. (Just click on link to read my reviews.)

Out of all three, I wear the Hot Pink Maximum Cleavage the most, and then this one. I have a little more support in the Hot Pink Maximum Cleavage, so I think that is why I choose it first.
