Looking for the perfect bra...

Maybe you can help me find what I'm looking for! The calculator puts me at 28E-28F-30E-30F. Here's a few of my measurements: Comfortable ribcage is 27 in., horizontal, vertical, and laying perimeters range from 8.3-9 in., and 35 in. around my bust. I think my boobs are close-set, about 1 finger's width. I'm not sure how wide I need the wires to be, but I like the width of my Curvy Kate Princess, 5.3 in., if not something narrower. I think I need a lot of immediate projection because just about all of my bras wrinkle at the bottom of the cups. I'm slightly full on top, pretty close to even fullness. I don't like tall cups, I want them to be hidden if I'm wearing a camisole. And, I know this is a long shot, but I'd like it to be under $50. I have no clue how to find what I'm looking for without constantly buying/returning bras, so hopefully somebody can give me some suggestions, if what I want even exists. Thank you in advance. :)

  • Hopefully someone has some suggestions, but honestly most of us spend a lot of time buying-and-returning things. Every body is different. Even with the same measurements, we might have subtle shape differences, or even just different preferences.

  • Honestly since I don't see any fitting photos of you I am not comfortable recommending bras...most people at the beginning of their fit journey are not entirely clear on which fit features are the cause of certain fit problems, and also after a lifetime of poorly-fitting bras they can attribute a misfit to wrong sizing when it's a shape problem, or attribute it to shape when they actually just needed a smaller or larger size. I would suggest some fitting threads with the bras you have to first establish if any of them really fit well and if not, what the exact problems are.
