Don't laugh too much but so many bad choices! I've bought 15 bras since I joined this site and r/ABraThatFits/and still don't have the "right" one. The more research I do the more I realize they don't work. For an otherwise smart person I can't seem to get it right.

Chantelle Parisian 34H - wings too low and cups a tiny bit small. It cuts in to my breast tissue and leaves an indentation
Curvy Couture Sexy Sheer balconette 36H & Fantasie Eclipse Underwire Spacer 36FF- way too big! WTF was I thinking? Talk about gaps!
Fantasie Marianna - 34FF - slightly small. I don't seem to understand sizing at all
Fig leaves Madeleine - 36FF - miniscule. Idk how it could be FF and so tiny
Le Mystere Infinite Possibilities - 36G - kind of fits but gaps and the cups seem really tall. The foam is a little intense also
Le Mystere Safari Perfect Uplift Demi - 36G - gaps is an understatement
Parfait Jeanie - 36FF - maybe fits ok
Parfait Charlotte - 36G - fits with a bit of a gap. I've read that it runs big but not on me. Why do some 36FF's fit and others are huge? It's super cute!
Prima Donna Divine - 36G - was fitted at Rigby & Pelletier and costs a small fortune. I don't love it
Simone Perele Andorra 3D Demi 34G - fitted at Nordstrom. Another WTF! Too pricey, no support and wrinkles at the bottom of the cup
Wacoal La Femme Contour - 36G - Also fitted at Nordstrom. I'm beginning to wonder about them. Lots of quad boobs but the 36H was gigantic!
Brielle Extreme Impact YYRK - 80G - very cute with a tiny bit of wrinkling in the apex. Nothing extreme about the support

I ordered 2 Comexims - ERIS Biustonosz - Size : 85G and MIRAGE biustonosz - Size : 85G. It was super late a few nights ago and in a moment of weakness I just did it. Despite reading and comparing I have no clue about their sizing. There is so much conflicting information

So, now I have no idea what size or style/brand to buy. I have tall roots and full all over. Not sure if I am wide. I would be grateful for any suggestions.

  • first of all, for the best help you should post a fit request on one or two of your bras. Before I buy any bra, I like to look here and read the reviews (to see in general if its more open on top, or less projected or whatever) and hope for pics in the sizes i'm thinking of, so I can picture if its near my size or not, or if it looks like somehting that would work for me.

  • I read so much about so many bras that I've started a spreadsheet. Really I was more responding to the questions about recent bra failures and then realized how much I failed lol
