What we love about Prima Donna-
Prima Donna is a generational family business, for them this is their life and it's serious business. This is a company that lives and breathes textiles and design and they are true masters at what they do.
When you buy Prima Donna and Marie Jo, you aren't just paying for the name.
What you are paying for is sublime fabrics that feel beautiful to wear and will last and last (if looked after well and treated kindly) and very clever designs that are both thoughtful and beautiful to look at. Prima Donna really know how to play with textiles to get the best in shape, beauty and support.
On a personal note, they are also brilliant to work with. Generous, helpful, organised and have great manners. We love dealing with them and we are always confident and proud selling their product, as we know we are selling an outstanding product, whether it be Prima Donna or Marie Jo.
So, to Deauville we go-
The legendary much loved and adored Deauville Comfort. This is one of the big hitters in the world of lingerie and has been a smash hit best seller both Nationally and Internationally for years.
What we love-
- Sister style to the Deauville Side Support, the comfort version is just as beautiful though a different shape
- No side support for a natural shape
- Comes up higher over the bust line to really tuck and hold you in shape
- Very centralised strap for those who have smaller or sloping shoulders
- A very hardy bra and beautifully made
- Firm lace along the top of the bust line, this will not stretch out easily
- An extra lycra stretch panel over the top of the bust line for comfort and hold
- Embroidered over the start of the straps for extra support
- Texture over the full length of the straps for extra support
- Texture over the straps for minimal slipping of hardware over time
- Texture over the straps to stop the stretching out over time
- Straps placed on an angle inward to stop slippage over the shoulders
- Double layer round the back for extra support and to keep its shape. Deauville won't stretch over time
- Great everyday bra for both comfort and support
- A traditional shape, great if you like a good amount of height
- A little more generous around the back for comfort
- Standard cup size- no changes needed
-
Something to think about-
- Though one of our favourites, the shape of Deauville Comfort is not for everybody. Because of the lack of side support it does allow for a more natural look. It can give a lot of height but it doesn't bring you in on the sides, so it can be thought of as being a bit pointy. On some, this look is fantastic and really suits them, on others, it not quite what they are looking for.
- Comes up quite high, Deauville Comfort is great as an everyday support bra but can be limiting under some outfits if you have a lot of low neck styles
- Generally works better for our customers who are a little taller and statuesque
- Generally not great on customer who are quite small in stature and height
- Due to it's delicate nature, Deauville Comfort will need to be hand washed.
