Approximate size of heavily customized Comexim Ingrid?
I did get refitting help already for my reorder, but since I have a listing for this, I really just need some confirmation that I labelled this bra's fit appropriately since I'm starting to second guess myself again and I'm afraid of being misleading.
It's a Comexim Ingrid plunge in 50H, but all the alterations I put on it decreased its size by a lot. In my listing, I said it fit like a "24DD", although now I'm not quite sure of how accurate that is. For reference, I usually order 50Fs in Ewa Michalak. I quad pretty badly, more than the 50E I used to own, so I guessed that it's probably more than a cup size. Probably two, doubtful if three.
I've already added its measurements on the site, if that helps anyone! And the link is to my fit check album, which has more pictures than my Bratabase entry, although it's really the last two that show the extent of quadding. Alterations include lowered cups, lowered gore, narrowed gore, and straps moved in. Cookie pockets too, but they're not important at the moment.
I wish I took one "cross-section" picture of the type of cutting in the top of the cup produced on my boob. The "valley" produced by the top of the cup is amusingly flat, like it's a gore of its own:. (\_/). This looks like the kind of quad that gave "quadboob" its name.
Thanks in advance for the help!

First of all - that bra's romantic flowered style and the way it is colored suits you very well.
The quadding is probably because the cups are not open enough like e.g. a Freya Deco Honey 28D bra would be. If you have FoT boobs this could cause the quadding with Ingrid.
I don't think this bra is perfect in cut and size for you because of the quad.
Hmm ok well this is a very good question, because frankly 24 bands are so rare that I think even people who technically would require them, probably don't have a lot of them! So they might not even know what their "fits like" goal size should be if they are shopping.
I did a search by measurements with the depth, width and wire length of this particular bra to see what results came up (leaving band length blank so as to see all the sister sizes) and it brought up a lot of 28Ds. So I think we could probably hypothesize that this would be fit like a [theoretical] 24E or a snug-fitting 26DD? Does that make sense to you?
