I made this bra over the weekend. It's a Lilypa Designs Lanai which I first made a few years ago. The cups fit me mighty fine but I think I may have expanded since I last made it and this time the band is a trifle snug. It should ease up after a few wears as the elastic relaxes but if I make it again I'll extend the under band by a smidge.

I'm not modelling the bra (Your eyes would never forgive you if they landed on the sight of me in such a state) but I can assure you it fits me better than Gertrude.

This is beautiful Glenda, so well made! Where did you get the lace and underwires from?

All the components were left over from a kit I had from Fit2sew, lovely stuff but sadly she retired in 2024 and closed her online shop.
