I spent €97 on the SKIMS Ultimate Balconette (36A) because it’s unavailable at Brown Thomas and requires a pricey online order. After doing extensive research and verifying my size in-store with other models, I expected premium quality. I got the opposite. The Problem: Structural Defect: An internal metallic component is improperly positioned, pressing into my skin and causing physical pain. Sizing Fail: Despite a 36A fitting perfectly in other SKIMS models that they had in Brown Thomas, the cup on this specific bra was notably larger than expected. There is zero consistency in their manufacturing across different lines. The "Solution": When I reported these faults, SKIMS sent a return label that forces me to lose €30 in shipping fees. I’ve had far better quality, fit, and comfort from Intimissimi and Uniqlo at one third of the price. SKIMS is a masterclass in marketing, but a failure in manufacturing. They expect the customer to pay for their quality control mistakes. Don't fall for the hype. Save your money. And purchase better quality
