Product Insights
The Malina Sheer Embroidered Plunge Bra by Bluebella ($59.95, in stock) combines delicate embroidered tulle with a raised center gore that turns the plunge into a moderate, supported style, while fixed inner silicone strips prevent band rise and cup drift. Fit is narrow: cups run shallow, so if between sizes you should go up one cup, yet fuller or projected busts may still spill and only low-projection, wide-set shapes truly fit. The main tradeoffs are fragility and exposure: the sheer unlined cups leave nipples visible with no included covers, red embroidery can bleed and requires isolated hand-washing, and the fine tulle can snag on jewelry or zippers into visible ladders. Sizing adds another limit—32, 34, and 36 bands only, D as the largest cup, and no 32D option—though every available variant is equally priced and in stock.
Verified claims
- Sizing
- Cups run shallow; if between sizes, go up one cup.
- Fit
- Fuller or projected busts spill despite sizing up; low-projection, wide-set shapes fit.
- Center gore
- Despite the plunge name, its centre gore is raised rather than ultra-low.
- Sheer effect
- Sheer unlined cups leave the nipple visible; nipple covers are not included.
- Care and durability
- Hand-wash only; colour may transfer and one snag can ladder the fine tulle.
- Snag risk
- Fine tulle can snag on jewelry, zippers, or rough seams and then ladder visibly.
- Silicone grip
- Fixed inner silicone strips stop band rise and cup drift during movement — the Malina's anti-ride-up mechanism.
- Size range
- Available only on 32, 34, and 36 bands; D is the largest cup and 32D is not offered.
- Variant pricing
- All size variants carry the same price and are in stock, so sister sizing costs no more.
- Variant range
- Eight Patterned Red options run 32B–36D, but no 32D size is offered.
- Cup construction
- The Malina is completely unlined and unpadded, with sheer embroidered tulle cups and no foam or padding in the cup.
- Under-clothing visibility
- The embroidery is slightly raised against the tulle base, and because the bra is sheer, the design can show through tighter or thinner clothing, especially lighter colors.
- Breathability and stretch
- The 100% polyester mesh has very little stretch and is not highly breathable compared with cotton or lace blends; it can feel less airy in warm conditions.
- Strap convertibility
- The adjustable straps are not detachable and cannot be converted to racerback or strapless wear; they attach permanently at the back and adjust only in length.
- Everyday support
- The Malina is often perceived as a fashion piece that lacks the firmness needed for all-day support, making it better suited to special occasions.
- Quality consistency
- Buyer feedback reports inconsistent quality, with scratchy fabric and loose threads, and many recommend waiting for a sale.

Bluebella's embroidery and mesh are more durable than similar styles from Skarlett Blue, which tend to rip easily.

Bluebella quality and sizing – embroidery holds up but sizing runs small
I actually like them (on sale) QUITE a bit. i think their embroidery and mesh is good quality, especially when I've tried similar styles from Skarlett Blue that ripped as soon as I sneezed. Their return policy is generous (in the US) and encourages me to try out and return easily. Their bra sizing is somewhat off for me, as I need to size up for them. I do generally quite like them! Worth a try, it nothing else.

Bluebella cups run shallow, quality overpriced
Cups run shallow for sure. Their quality isn't great. It's definitely not Temu-level, but I wouldn't pay $74 for a bra from them, maybe $40 (but I'm also kinda sale savvy lol). It's definitely in the lower tier in comparison to other large lingerie brands, but at the same time, their prices are in the lower range too. The sewing is not always neat, there will be some loose threads, the fabric can be really scratchy.

Sheer Bluebella bra lacks firmness, feels like a boudoir piece
I don't have a problem with the sheer style - it just doesn't feel firm like other bras have, that's why I was wondering if it is boudoir brand - like they are designed for the look rather than the support!
