In 1521, Suleiman the Magnificent, Muslim ruler of the Ottoman Empire, dispatched an invasion fleet to the Christian island of Rhodes. This would prove to be the opening shot in an epic clash between rival empires and faiths for control of the Mediterranean and the center of the world. In Empires of the Sea, acclaimed historian Roger Crowley has written a thrilling account of this brutal decades-long battle between Christendom and Islam for the soul of Europe, a fast-paced tale of spiraling intensity that ranges from Istanbul to the Gates of Gibraltar. Crowley conjures up a wild cast of pirates, crusaders, and religious warriors struggling for supremacy and survival in a tale of slavery and galley warfare, desperate bravery and utter brutality. Empires of the Sea is a story of extraordinary color and incident, and provides a crucial context for our own clash of civilizations.

Surprisingly Comfortable
Size: 36D, Color: Beige
I'm very surprised by the comfort of this bra. I've worn wireless padded/lined bras for as long as I can remember so this is quite a change from my norm. I am only 5' tall so having larger breasts tend to make me look top heavy. The minimizing effect makes my outfits look so much better and slims me down a bit. I am unsure of the sizing though. I purchased my normal size in a 36D but the top of the cups have some wrinkling as if I'm not quite filling the cup. It does smooth out a bit after I've been wearing it for a while. The lift is nice but not extreme. It more puts the girls where they were about 20 years ago but it doesn't do much for shaping. Overall it's a nice bra and I'd likely purchase again if I could just get the sizing right.

DELIMIRA Women's Inbarely Lift Full Coverage Bra
Size: 48D, Color: Black
I have had this bra now for 4 months. It is VERY comfortable. However, after only 4 months of use, the cup wire is sticking out of the outer sides. It hurts when it pokes me and digs into my skin. If the wire wouldn't have stuck out, it would have been PERFECT. I LOVED this bra. It's a real shame!

They should call it The Unicorn Bra
Size: 42F, Color: White
What kind of sorcery is this?! I am 58 and have had huge boobs my entire life. I've spent thousands of dollars on bras over the years and have never been 100% happy with one of them. Until now. My daughter recently lost a ton of weight and was looking for "in between" bras until she hits her goal. She didn't want to spend a lot each time she had to replace one so she researched and found Delmira. She immediately called to tell me she found a Unicorn and of course, I had to try it. I ordered 4 more in different colors and styles and let me tell you...all of them are amazing. The support, comfort, style...simply amazing!!
