With its faux-leather neck strap fitted with a metal ring, the Lolitta Luxury bra is a bra with BDSM connotations. It is clearly designed to be worn alone, without extra clothing to cover it.
When the Kisskiss.ch shop offered me the chance to choose some lingerie items to try out, this pommed fetish bra immediately caught my attention.
Here’s my review of the Lolitta Luxury bra.

Packaging
The bra arrives in a thin white cardboard box, packaging fairly usual for this type of naughty underwear. So I can’t wait to open it.
Appearance of the Lolitta Luxury bra
The Lolitta Luxury bra is very pretty, all about delicacy, with its fine mesh, which covers the breasts while making them visible through the sheer fabric.
Two faux-leather bands hold it. One is worn as a collar around the neck, the other under the breasts. At the centre of each of these two straps, which fasten at the back with Velcro, there is a decorative metal ring, ornamented with a pompon, which gives it a part SM, part vintage look.
Its cups, underwire-free, are mesh triangles, framed by two stretchy straps. They are attached to rings, which in turn are connected to the collar by adjustable straps. Between the breasts is a third adjustable strap, also connected to the neck.
Fabric
The cups of the bra are made from a very fine mesh, the various straps are made from soft fabric, while the neck strap and the waist strap are made from faux leather. The official description states: 97% polyester, 3% elastane.
Sizes
The Luxury bra is available in two sizes: S/M or L/XL.
It is worth noting that it runs small. I usually wear a S; the S/M fits, but just barely — there isn’t much room to spare. If you’re a M, the size up may be more suitable.
How the Lolitta Luxury bra looks
As for the look, nothing to complain about; it looks nice, not too vulgar, a touch kinky.
Since the cups of the Lolitta Luxury bra are thin and unpadded, you shouldn’t expect this bra to reshape your figure or make your breasts look fuller. It will be natural, which works rather well with the garment’s semi-sheer quality.
Wearing and comfort of the Lolitta Luxury bra
I find this bra hyper cute, original and stylish. I would have loved to be able to tell you it’s perfect in every respect. Unfortunately, it has a major flaw, one I only discovered after deciding to wear it during a night out at a swinger club: the Velcro doesn’t hold at all.
Around the neck, it’s fine; you don’t move your neck that much, and it doesn’t come off… But the Velcro at the back is a different story. It’s impossible to raise your arms, or even move your arms, without it coming off. The first few times, you manage to put it back into place. Then you realise it’s coming off more and more often, losing its grip before your very eyes.
After an hour of desperate attempts to keep my outfit together, I gave up. And in order not to start the evening bare-chested, I decided to buy a top on sale in the shop next to the club. There, the saleswoman, who had some Lolitta clothes in stock, told me that the Velcro wearing out was a fairly common problem with this brand.
It’s fairly easy to remedy this flaw by sewing on clasps like those on a classic bra, or by fitting the fastening system of your choice. But you don’t necessarily feel like doing any sewing when you receive a brand-new piece of lingerie, and you also need to know about this flaw in advance, otherwise you risk being embarrassed by a faulty outfit if it happens.
Conclusion on the Lolitta Luxury bra
Good points:
- Its look is nice and original
- It is a bit fetish
- It is not vulgar
Bad points:
- The Velcro at the back doesn’t hold at all.
The Lolitta bra is pretty and original; I really like its look. But due to a major design flaw, its back Velcro not holding, it will need a sewing adjustment before it can be worn comfortably.
As it is, I therefore can’t really recommend it… And it’s a bit of a shame because, with very little to fix, it could have been really very nice.
