I redid my bra drawer to give space to all my new lovely spacer balconettes. My other bras are feeling lonely!
I bought this bra as a “try me” on sale. I am very pleased with the fit and the comfort. It’s well made and supportive.
I'm hard to fit, even with bras in my correct size. This is the best of the best. I have it in three colors now and I'm going to order more!
I’m a 28G, got 30F, it fit well and is fairly secure. Bottom heavy fullness, teardrop shape. Great bra. Just handwash for best results.

Quite disappointing, it was a perfect fit as I purchased a 30F, so I took the label off. However throughout the day I realized the shoulder straps were too wide apart, so the metal ornament and shoulder straps would dig and scratch into my armpit as I move my arms around. The shoulder straps are also a rough material compared to the smooth material of the cups, so my arms were left with red marks by the end of the day. Purchased as final sale so I don't think I can return it.

I have a very hard time finding a bra that keeps the girls separated and still feels comfortable. This one checks both boxes! No cup gap when I bend over, no readjustment multiple times a day. Just enough lining for modesty. Overall, a great bra!
I’m a calculated 28 DDDD/ G . I got 30E, it fits well but feels a bit low coverage. Maybe 30F would be a more comfortable fit in the style. The 30 band didn’t fit too loose either but I think 28 would be too tight
Hi there! So sorry for your experience and completely understand your frustration with sizing - if you are a 28G, I would suggest ordering this correct size. We don't carry it in the Spacer Balconette as of yet but we do have it in the fuller coverage sister, the Sublime Spacer Bra, which will offer you more coverage and a better fit. If you want to stick to the Spacer Balconette, a 30E compared to your 28G calculated size would make sense why you don't feel covered as your cups may fit way too small. A 30F would be a better fit for you for the Spacer Balconette as it's a closer sister size to 28G.
This is the only lightly lined balconette bra I’ve been able to find in my size. My measurements are 26.5” underbust and 31” bust and I would say bottom heavy and wide set. I got a 28D and it fits perfectly! I had issues with molded cups digging into the top tissue but this actually sits flat against my skin.
Some reviews say the back is itchy or uncomfortable and I have somewhat sensitive skin and didn’t find it uncomfortable. If you do find it itchy, I imagine you could put something over it for a fix.
Similar to another review, I had issues with the fit calculator. I got recommended a 30A using it. I believe the calculator is using the outdated 4+ inches method. I would also recommend just getting your true actual size.
I really love this bra, this is the most comfortable under wire bra. The fit is perfect, the color is very pretty. Most of my favorite bras are montelle bras.
I don’t typically write reviews, but I’m too thrilled not to share. First off, the bra is comfortable and fits like a glove. The fabric is breathable, and the design is understated, but still super cute. For something that’s not even a push-up bra, the balconette design provides flattering lift. A bit of nip might be visible depending on how tight your clothes are - I’m not bothered personally, but that may be something to consider.
I’m on the smaller end of the spectrum, so I’ve always had issues with cups gapping and bands riding up. The size calculator on the website suggested I buy a 32B, but I went ahead and got a 30C since that’s technically my true size. If you’re also a member of the itty bitty titty committee, you may want to forgo the calculator and stick to your true size. It’ll be snug, but not uncomfortably so.
I really appreciate this company for including uncommon band sizes that are nearly impossible to find in stores. Being able to buy a bra that actually fits does wonders for your confidence. Currently saving up to buy another one!
It fits really well and is comfortable.
This bra is beautiful but the one I ordered is a little too small
Matches my skin tone and fits properly. I personally didn’t find the material scratchy.
I wear this bra everyday. And especially this brand. It is my go to and I am glad I was able to get this size because I heard that this size and bra was discontinued by the manufacturer. It is very comfy to wear and I especially love the prints. Firs perfect and no pinching the skin. Breathable and gives me a little lift. I wear this everyday. I love it!! My go to!!
This was my third purchase attempt at finding a bra here that fit. I thought it was going to be ok after trying on and I didn’t want to return a third bra and waste money on shipping, so I took off the tag. After one day of wear the back irritated my skin so bad I have a raw red spot. There isn’t enough material on the hook part to cover a seam and it’s painful. I had to take it off and stop wearing it! The top of the cups where the straps attach also seem to gape a little, despite me going down a cup size. Overall very disappointing in how much I paid. Their size chart is way off too; I took measurements and it said I was like a 32C when I’m a 34DDD. So odd. Won’t be a repeat customer.
Hi Mackenzie! We're so sorry about your experience with the Spacer Balconette. Size charts can differ across brands, and may also fit differently when it's Spacer Fabric and balconette styles - we completely understand your frustration though, which is why we ensure all exchanges are free and easy. In terms of the seam and hook digging, this could be a defect unfortunately, so feel free to reach out to our team at info@montelleintimates.com and our team will be more than happy to take a look!
Products are all so well made and comfortable.
This is my first time purchasing Montellem intimates. I am very pleased with the quality and comfort of the bra. Not sure if I chose the correct size, or it is just the balconette style. Will purchase again, but perhaps a different style.
I love this bra. But where the hooks and loops fasten the fabric is very rough. Which causes my skin to get irritated and then I have to take the bra off. I have two different bras from you all and both had the same issue. A little more fabric would help fix this problem.
Oddly although the back closure appears soft and smooth, it just irritated my back fiercely. I washed it a few times, adjusted everything and it’s a bit better. No idea why? It just doesn’t inspire me to wear it.
