mechanonymouse: Adventures or Failures in Bra Making - Marlborough Bra

The Marlborough BraThis was a far more pleasant experience from start to finish.Like the Shelley bra, the Marlborough bra is a full coverage, underwired bra with a full band whose smallest band is a 30. Unlike the Shelley bra this bra is an easily obtained pdf and should be made with lace cup details.[READ-MORE]Like with the Shelley bra I made the 30H as this should be my equivalent size and toiled it out of scrap blouse fabric. The construction on this bra is considerably better, it’s fully lined with a pretty lace panel at the top because I was a lot more confident in the pattern pieces for this bra when I lay them against my RTW bras.As you can see when I overlay a fitting RTW bra over the top, it is a very similar shape. Slightly more coverage on the cup and a slightly wider band but it fits really nicely.

I need to cannibalise another bra for underwires and I’ve not yet had cause, but soon.[/READ-MORE]
