Boux Avenue Review

My first review will be on lingerie store Boux Avenue. This is quite a new retailer, they launched last spring and currently have eight retail stores in the UK. I have visited their store in The Trafford Centre, Manchester however I will do this review based on what I found on the website as it is far more accessible.


So more about Boux Avenue!...


First of all their sizes start at a 30 back so no 28s I'm afraid. Their cup sizes go up to a H cup, even in a 30 back which sounds great. Looking through their website however using the size selection tool I discovered that a grand total of five bras are available in a 30H all of which are quite similar to this...

Admittedly it is a nice simple bra for everyday wear. It features lovely embroidery with a bow detail on the centre front. The straps are slightly wider than smaller cup which helps to avoid pressure lines. I have tried this bra on in store (in my size 32FF) and I found it to be rather comfortable. 

For me, the downside of this bra is the fit. It is labelled as a plunge bra but as you can see in the picture above it doesn't do wonders for your cleavage so I wouldn't recommend it for lower cut tops if you're into a close, uplifted and full looking cleavage.

It is reasonably priced at £24 and is available with a matching thong for £8 or brief for £10. 

Here are few few other options they have available in back sizes 30+ up to a G cup.

I think its quite a nice selection of pretty bras, there aren't many option for something sexy or a bit more special. They do have a selection of Basques and Strapless bras but not many for us SBLC ladies. 

So as the hunt for the perfect bra continues stay tuned for my from the Small Back Large Cup blog!
