Frustrated

ok.. so I haven't posted on here in forever but a lot has happened since, I've gone from a 55FF to a 50H (Ewa Michalak) due to tissue migrating back and general growth. I hate that bras in my size are made with some sort of Idea that my armpits are located on my back. the wires come upp halfway under my armpit but that's actually ok couse it helps keep the tissue in place and they are actually only barely a cm too wide. but then I'm petite and have a short torso with somewhat high set breasts. so I have to shorten the shoulderstraps. now the place where said straps attaches to the bra is effectivly IN the fold of my armpit. i have burns from constant fricton.
I have tried sizing down but when I swoop and scoop I get a lot of quading and at the same time a smaller size tends to let tissue slip out making for a bad fit.
I tried moving the straps in and I did a good job but even though hardly any material was removed (just a little bit to give a curve to the wider armhole) it made the bra much too small and a weird shape.

what can I do? I'm really sore under my arms now..

  • You dont have any of the bigger bras entered in bratabase - what are you wearing now?

  • are the wires OK in the bras you wear or are they too wide? If I were you, I would send some photos of this issue to Ewa Michalak, maybe the could help after the Christmas rush.
