They were founded sixty years ago in Dublin and caught my attention because they offered great looking bras in larger cup sizes. The Celebration collection is available in B-F cup for everyday comfort. During the early part of this decade, they introduced a younger line called B’ware. It was smashing.

Sadly, I don’t think they have continued that line. Now, Ballet seems to be HQ’d in Lancashire, England. The company introduced swimwear during 2005/6, focusing on its central message of ‘good fit’. Here are some images from their A/W 2008 collection.


Here are some images from their S/S 2009 collection.


I like the darker and richer colours from their Winter collection so now may be the time to do some bargain hunting. Ballet is available at Figleaves, Debenhams, Additions, Empire Stores, Undercover Experience, Just Bras, and many other retailers.

1. B’Ware by Ballet Betsy Underwire bra
What makes this underwire bra so special? The cup detail! The pink frilly ribbon looks so girly, and the net fabric of these cups give the bra a sexy touch. Sexy and girly, good quality, and only $18 down from $36 on the US website, £20 (that’s over double the price :( ) on the UK site.Beneath Embellished padded bra

2. Beneath Embellished padded bra
This bra looks so much like an $85 beau bra one I have! Beautiful sheer mesh on the plunged cups, girly ribbon details on the thin straps and on sale as well! Down to $19.60 from $28 on the US website, £16 on the UK site!

3. O Lingerie Flirt bandeau bra
O Lingerie Flirt bandeau bra We’ve never mentioned O Lingerie on the website before, but this one deserved its spot! The $25 in the US and the £9.8 (down from £14) in the UK are rock bottom. The bra itself doesn’t look cheap at all though, especially thanks the beautiful floral lace trim on the cups. I’m buying this one straight away! ;-)
