Comparing it with Timpa Alice

To preface, I bought this bra with the intention to wear it under a bustier with a sheer panels at top of the chest area and back. I bought both the Timpa Alice and this one. I've seen people asking what’s the difference, so here's what I noticed Size I wear - 32D, 90-91cm bust and 73-74 cm under bust. I'm aware my bra size may be inaccurate but I'm wearing the most commercially available bra size in stores that fits me the best without spending $$$. The good - this bra is very comfortable and it does fit as expected. Quality is pretty similar to the Timpa. The differences- Coverage -this bra gives a lot more coverage compared to the Timpa Alice. I actually won't be able to wear it under my bustier because it has more coverage on the chest and it shows under the sheer panels. The Timpa, it doesn't show cause the cups have much less coverage. But at least this bra will contain your chest. When I wear the Timpa, my chest will pop out of the cups periodically. This one won’t cause it actually covers it. I’ve supplied pictures showing the differences in the cups. The Timpa (beige) is on top and the Wingslove (pink) is on the bottom. There you can see how much more coverage the Wingslove has Bands – The "bands” or whatever you call the side straps that hooks into the back is a wider on the Wingslove compared to the Timpa. The Timpa bands are actually thinner and not as wide. I prefer to have the thinner straps since tops that you will typically wear a demi bra with will also have lower backs. The Wingslove bands shows through the back of the bustier while the Timpa doesn’t Suggestions – If you have a larger chest size or you need more coverage and support but liked the "feel” of the Timpa, this bra is the way to go. If you are looking for something similar cut to the Timpa Alice but wanted to buy this one cause it had your size, then I would keep the above points in mind. Quality wise, they’re on par. Cut wise, they’re different.

Pros
  • The balconette design and underwire of this bra work together to highlight and enhance a woman's natural curves, making her feel confident and beautiful
Cons
  • The bra's design is outdated
