Balconette Top - Choc Pinstripe

$105.00

31 reviews
Description

Our Balconette offers a timeless, iconic vintage aesthetic. Unlike a typical full-cup shape, it features low-cut, shallow cups that follow a straight, horizontal line—like a small balcony. This design naturally lifts, creating a rounded silhouette that highlights the décolletage and upper bust.

✓ Medium to high support

✓ Underwire for structure

✓ Adjustable shoulder straps

✓ Adjustable back with 3 settings

✓ Soft, flexible cups that provide gentle lift and shaping

✓ Lined cups 

✗ Padding

Fit: Runs slightly small in the cup. Size up in the cup from your usual bra size. Please note the fit has changed compared to prior seasons, with an increased cup capacity for FF and above.

Models are wearing a 10E/F (32E/F).

5 Stars

I love this bikini top, feels supportive, is a great fit, and is super cute & attractive. After shopping extensively for larger bust fitting bikinis, I’m happy to say I found exactly what I was looking for at RAQ. I can feel confident all summer long.

Better than a bra

I've tried a few specialist large chest swim brands and have happily found my match in Raq - very secure, but still feels light like a swimmers should!
