You know that time I posted pics of myself in my undies on the internet? (No? You can read the post here) well I”m back with another great post about my fave lingerie label, Rose & Thorne, and how they are changing the way you shop for your bras online.
Wait. What?
Shopping for underwear online, are you mad?
Actually no! Rose & Thorne have reinvented bra shopping! After extensive research & fittings on real women, the team at Rose & Thorne have created 5 iconic bra shapes.
From no padding to push-up, from relaxed to structured – they have all the shapes you’ll ever need… like this gorgeous set…. they are part of the Curvylicious collection, designed with just some light padding to help make the most of the great shape you already have (without adding any extra bulk – you hearing me?)
SHOP THE SET: Curvylicious lace white and pink bra (size 10C-16E) $27 + contrast lace white and pink midi brief (size S-XXL) $15
Rose & Thorne’s founder, Sue Dunmore tells me, “Once you’ve found the shapes that work for you, you can buy bra after bra without ever having to try them on again. Lingerie shopping has never been easier.”
Sounds awesome right? So how does it work…..
Step #1: Head to the Rose & Thorne website and click on “Find Your Fit” – this will take you to their Bra Fit Guru. This will take you through a series of steps – it will talk you through what your bras fit like now, what kind of coverage you are after and what brands work for you now.
Step #2: The Bra Fit Guru will then suggest to you which of their 5 iconic shapes, and what size, is best suited for you.
Step #3: Click on the size and shape to see all of the options in that category and “add to cart” baby!
So wanna know more about each of the shapes and what they can do for you? Sure you do – here they are…
SHOP THE SHAPE:
Oh Naturale lace bra rose (size 12B-20D) $27.00
Smooth Operator strapless bare bra (sizes 10B-18E) $40.00
Curvylicious Rose Collection coral and blush bra (sizes 10D-24E) $50.00*
En Forme Rose Collection black embroidery bra (sizes 10D-24E) $50.00*
Perky Power lace pink bra (sizes 10B-16D) $27.00
BIGGER THAN THE AVERAGE BEAR?
*Just a quick side note on the Rose Collection too – these particular bras feature technical details specifically designed for larger busts, Rose Collection includes double layer back wings to smooth your back, wider shoulder straps to aide support & a side-sling to move the bust forward.
The idea of the Bra Fit Guru is that it takes some of the guess work out of buying a bra online, and then once you find the fit and style you love, you can just keep updating from that collection (I literally have one of all of the en forme. It’s just my jam.)
In fact, it’s the first time I have cleavage! As soon as I read the words “lift” and “forward” I was sold. So I guess it’s really important to think about what you want your bra to do for your boobs (and everyone is different in that respect).
WANNA WIN ONE?
I’ve got one style in EACH SHAPE to give away – so 5 bras for 5 lucky readers.
All you have to do is jump onto the Bra Fit Guru (you’ll find it under “Find My Fit” on the top menu), go through the steps and them come back and tell me what bra, in your size and shape you’d like to win! I’ll pick one lucky person from each shape and they can have the bra of their dreams, all thanks to the lovely team at Rose & Thorne.
Good Luck!!
Until Next Time, In Love & Style Always,

I got curvilicious
Size 14C
I like the black lace with contrast grey the best.
I like them all lol
After three babies I reeeeally need to pass my maternity bra collection
forward (so comfy though!) and get a whole new wardrobe of bras. Curveylicious size 14dd would kick this off nicely, they’re all lovely though, the strapless one would be great for summer outfits x
haha yes it’s definitely time to get those puppie back into normal bras again!
I went to their site – its pretty cool!
Such gorgeous choice of fabrics
En Forme Lace pale Blue 12 E
Oh Naturale Lace Bra Rose 12 E
What a treat, def in need of an upgrade – double boob problem!
I hate trying bras on, as it is always a mission. I’m really hoping that I have found my forever bra shopping place. 12f & either oh naturale or en forme.
Au Naturale 14E. Perfect for work and going out! Thank goodness we are now catered for with such a stunning brand. 🖤
Would love the perky power is 10A
En Forme 18E for me 🙂
16C curvylicious super helpful guide
I’d love the lace bra in rose 14 DD, the guide was helpful. I think I’ve been buying my bras too big around the back. Nice to see a bra range where the bigger ones are pretty and functional…fingers crossed. Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
Oh Naturale 14DD Love the Styles and affordability of Rose and Thorn bras
Curvylicious is for me,
So my ‘ladies’ stay above the knee 😉.
I’d love a new bra (did I mention),
So the girls can draw attention.
Now that I’m done breast feeding would love a new bra to look and feel great 👍🏽
RADIATE NAVY & AQUA In 16E please. It’s gorgeous. I have a few matching sets and love their lingerie ❤
I’d love to win this prize! Being a big-busted girl I am always on the hunt for the perfectly fitting bra that gives support without looking too dowdy… How gorgeous are those bras by Rose & Thorne though! I would love to win the ENHANCED SUPPORT RADIATE BLACK & MANDARIN en forme in 20 E please! Merry Xmas everyone!
En forme radiate navy 12E, Love their bras
I would love a 10B in Curvylicious I could do with some confidence post feeding two babies 🙁 i’ve been finding it so hard to find a bra that helps with loss in shape in the top and not having gaping at the top
Oh curvylicious 14D would be fabulous for some added support now with mumma boobs and then I will be purchasing more post birth/feeding for sure ❤❤❤
Ohhhh exciting! I’m either a Au Natural or an En Forme (size 12E). Love to give Fayreform (my current go to for holding the girls in) a run for their money! 😀
The Guru recommends Enhanced Support En Forme for me in 14G – the only one i could see on the website was Radiate in Black/Mandarin so have ordered one, but if they are good i’lm going to need more than one!
Absolutely LOVE en forme- in a 12D.
I need my bust exactly where it should be!
So great to do the bra guru and find which bra would be best from the comfort of home 🙂 en forme or curvylicious 16d loving so many of them https://www.roseandthorne.co.nz/bras/rose-collection-embroidery
Oh my goodness!!! How gorgeous ❤️ I’d love a 12DD en Forme bra please!!!!
Curvylicious 12c would love to try
Perky power smooth tshirt coral blue spot in 12a please! I need all the help I can get!
Either a Curvylicious or an En Forme 16C for me. I’m down to one bra and hate going to get fitted – Rose & Thorne have some gorgeous options with personality, which I really like!!
Oh naturale or en forme please 16f thankyou for this opportunity xxx
Looks like am an en forme girl. Love a bit of colour, particularly orange and am a 14DD.
To win a set would be such a treat.
Looks like I’m either a Smooth Operator or En Forme – both 16E. Definitely time for new bras, maybe some lucious colours this time instead of safe black, beige or white 🙂
I would love to win some new Bras for christmas. I’m a 12 F 😁
Which of the 5 shapes did you come up with on the bra fit guru test Nicole? There is one from each shape to win, but if we don’t know what shape you are, you can’t win 😉
I would love a new bra (and some nice knicks 😉 ), I haven’t got many that fit well, I wore maternity bras for about 5 years and now by old bras are a bit hit and miss. I two ones on sale but they are too small so I don’t wear them. I had to laugh that I’m a Oh Naturale 12 E. I was that size previously but post children my shape has certainly changed! I have been looking at some of the rose collection, I will need to make an order in the New Year.
good luck! The Rose Collection are my faves – and yes, DEFINITELY time tp upgrade after them babies right??
Im in desperate need of new bras!! I came across rose & thorne brand from bloggers ive been following. Im still in my maternity bras and would love some new beautiful bras. My old bras im not even sure of size and brand lol so bit of an estimate. But it has said perky power in size 10DD.
ooooh Good luck! What a perfect time to upgrade and get you out of those maternity bras! x
So I’m an ‘oh naturale’ – always thought so 😉 – and the Rose Collection Gold Embroidery in 12G is recommended for me. It’s a struggle finding beautiful bras that fit my large cup but comparatively small back so I’d love to try this brand
oh yay! they sound perfect for you then, The Rose Collection are my FAVE! the straps and extra support is awesome x
Curvylicious, black lace charcoal contrast 16dd. What great looking bras!
Curvylucious Black Lace Charcoal contrast for me 16dd. Great looking bras!
According to the bra guru I’ve been wearing the wrong size forever. En forme 14C is the perfect fit for me. 😁😁
not uncommon Michelle (apparently about 70% of us are getting it wrong)! good luck in the comp
Bra fitting guru suggested 14DD Oh Naturale! Lots of gorgeous bright colours to choose from. I’m currently searching for a lighter bra for this hot summer we are having 😊
I love curvilisious 10b please!
My fit – En form 10dd – not many brands offer this size and I love these options.
Spot Lace Lemon, Curvylicious, 14c 🙂 I would love to win this bra as I’ve never really ownedid underwear that isn’t black or dark blue – would love to get out of my comfort zone a bit with some colour!
Curvylicious in 18DD. Such beautiful bras!
Curvylicious 20E 😣 i hate having big boobs but these are amazing bras!
Curvylicious 10F xxx
https://www.roseandthorne.co.nz/bras/lace-7162
Love this one!
20F En Forme is what it suggested for me. I’d love to own a bra that fits!! I have one Berlei bra which is too tight plus the underwire came out so I just wear it when my other bra is in the wash. My other bra is too loose around my chest – it’s a 22 and I need a 20 but it was on sale and all I could afford.
OMG this would be amazing! I’m still wearing my old maternity bras even though I stopped feeding over a year ago!! They’ve definitely seen better days!! Bra Fit Guru says I need a 14DD in an Oh Naturale or En Forme and I would love to try the Rose Collection Floral Black Print please! x
En Forme 14F for me, would be amazing to have a new bra that fits well for once… my boobs seem to change size all the time! 😐😊
En Forme 10D for me
I can’t believe I haven’t come across this brand before, so excited to try it out
Au natural 14F apparently! I sooo need this! Haven’t brought new bras since my partial mastectomy and have only been able to wear crop tops during my radiotherapy so I really could do with this! 😀😀😀😀💜💜💜💜💜
I couldn’t work out how to edit my earlier comment – but I love the Rose Collection Gold Embroidery and also the Lace White Oh Naturale for me in a 12D…..
En Forme 18 E!
Its telling me I need a 20E En Forme. I’d love to try it! Not convinced the 20 would be the right fit, I think I fit an 18 but I’d be happy to be proven wrong if it was a supportive bra that fits!
Rose n Thorne are great. Oh naturale 14D, pretty please I really need a new one!
Love these bras, such a great colletion and.comfortable. I would love the En Forme Betty boobs 18dd..
En forme in 14F for me, two options online and both are beautiful so I would go for the ENHANCED SUPPORT RADIATE BLACK & MANDARIN please Cait xx
I love love love the rose collection embroidery white, it’s absolutely gorgeous! I’m a 20D.
curvylicious it is. I absolutely love THE ROSE COLLECTION PURPLE & SAGE bra, size 14B according to app
Curvylicious 12D…gosh they all look so fantastic and super gorgeous and affordable!!
Oh Naturale for me in a 12D…..pre-babies, and pre-40 I was a 10D….what will be, will be! ☺️ …I’ve asked hubby for some of these sets for Christmas – have neglected the undergarments for too long!
Curvylicious in 12dd sounds like the one for me! Love to try this, have been buying the same bra for years cause I can’t face the trauma of finding a new one!
Curvylicious 14E.
I am so excited about these bras. Made for a larger bust, but also pretty and affordable!!
Curvylicious 10c, I’m sizing down too! Post baby boobies have shrunk😞
Sounds like ‘Perky Power’ is the one for me – hilarious, love the name!! They want me to go down to a 14B though (all these years I’ve been telling myself I’m a C) 🙂
haha isn’t it always the way – if you have bigger boobs, you want to be smaller. If you have smaller boobs, you want to be bigger! And how cute are the names 😉
