Inframammary fold and wires

I recently noticed that I'm most comfortable when the wire of my bra is about 1 cm below my inframammary fold. I know it's suposed to be *in it*, but then it just hurts like hell, because the wires rub on my ribs. What say you? Can it mean that my current size ( 32F / 30FF ) might not be my size at all?

  • I can't stand wires in my IMF, when the wires are too wide! They hurt like hell when they are in my fold under my breast, because they press so badly on the sides of my ribs!
    (I hope you can picture what I'm trying to say! :D)

  • I've been going through some issues with the wire and my IMF. If it's just barely below it, it moves around and gives me marks in my IMF and on the sides. If it's an inch below I get marks there too. I have to be careful because most underwires hurt there. I've only had a few that don't. I feel like it's a lost cause for me!
