Center full and close set

28" and 30" bands provide great lift, but lift almost always results in a wire compressing my breast tissue. I may be able to tolerate this for two hours, but the next day there is intense discomfort and the only bra I can wear is the uniwire Heidi Klum http://www.bratabase.com/bra/di826/

I've tried narrowing and overlapping gores, and this results in comically open cups gaping above my very short roots. Thankfully, I can laugh. :-) I've also created a muti-layer, narrow fabric "riser" to place between the wires and lift them off my tissue. This sometimes works.

Now, I'm trying 32" plunges. My tissue isn't lifted, but it is corralled and rounded. And, it begs the question: why wear a wired bra?

Other ideas? Thanks.

  • I've been thinking about your problem a bit for a while, and my question is, why not wear a soft cup? What about the Deco Soft Cup? It looks really comfortable and attractive and if it were in my size I would buy one.

  • I've read it doesn't work well for projected breasts, but most others bras don't work for close-set, center-full breasts. ;-) So, I'll give it a whirl :-)
