It’s exciting to see a new addition to the Curvy Kate collection as always; and the Romance didn’t disappoint. Unlike any other bra I have, it’s romantic in every sense of the word. With intricate mock-Baroque detailing, given an update with clashing colours it’s simply beautiful to look at. A more grown up CK set than some of its predecessors, it still feels fun and flirty so whist being original it still fits right in with the Curvy Kate ethos.A welcome new addition, I chose the Romance in this stunning cream-white colour with the rich teal detailing, as I’m on a bit of a mission to find some white and nude coloured bras that suit my skin tone and that I can wear to work. I found this set a bit too white to be considered a ‘nude’ bra even on my pale-as-paper complexion, yet the tone is not exactly a stark or harsh white, it’s a very delicate pearly off white. The briefs are gorgeous and has a double layered panel over the intimate area, hiding what you may not want to have on show. It’s only a second layer of the very sheer fabric yet definitely ups the coverage. Clever CK!The shape, uplift and feel of this bra very much reminded my of the Emily which (as I’m sure you’ve now gathered) is one of my favourite Curvy Kate bras. Despite being relatively similar the Romance has enough of an original stamp on it to be well and truly a ‘new’ set in its own right and I’m glad to see a new variety from the brand… something which is set to expand even further over the next year!How pretty is it? And the fit is just perfect in a 28FF.I found the fit very similar to the Angel and Emily, like a love-child of the two. Both of us ordered our ‘usual’ sizes and had no complaints; the Romance fits like a dream with a fabulous Curvy Kate shape and natural uplift and cleavage. We can’t wait to see what CK will do with this set in upcoming collections!The black and gold is definitely a more grown up and classic colour-way compared to the white and teal, but is nonetheless stunning. If we had to pick our favourite it would be the fresh white and contrasting decadent teal, but it was a tough decision to make! The black Romance shows how a basic staple like a black bra needn’t be dull; spice up your everyday bra-drobe with a bit of Romance!Attractiveness: 7/10Fit: 7/10Comfort: 8/10Styling: 7/10Support: 8/10Shape: 6/10Price vs. Quality: 7/10Re-purchasability: 8/10Invest In Your Chest Rating: 7/10** These bras were gifted by Curvy Kate for review purposes.
