So, I went to Nordstrom yesterday to try on some bras since measuring.. the lady said I measured at a 34dd, but I told her the band wouldn't be snug enough so I went with a 32ddd, my current size. I don't know if I'm just not used to it, but all the ones I tried felt a tad small. She had me swoop and scoop, but then when my breasts were quadding on top she would grab the top of the cup and jerk it until my boob fell down and smudged against my chest wall. Um.. not really thinking that's a good fit. After that, I grabbed a couple 32f EU size and felt like they fit a little better. They were just so smushed into me in those styles and VERY uncomfortable. Right now all I have is a 32ddd from VS and I'm literally spilling out of it.

I've discovered I have projected, full on top, with inner fullness and ?average? roots. Roots are a bit on the tall side. I'm hoping to order a couple Comexim bras and see if those work better, I don't want to buy a bra that makes me look smaller or flattened. Which is what almost all the molded bras I tried on did. Not enough support either. I really hope I can order at least one I like!

  • Don't forget to check listings here! In your size range there are a ton of offerings, including some Comexim and Ewa Michalak if you want to try them without the wait.

    Good luck! :)

  • I'd start trying 32F which I think is the US equivalent of 32DDDD. Most of us use the U.K. labels because more if the bras outside the matrix sizes use them. I believe uk 32E is approximately the US 32DDD. There is also a chance the bras you are wearing are too shallow so that it pushes you up and out of the bra too much. I think Freya is supposed to work well with tall roots and also as far as molded cups are concerned parafait affinitas is good with taller roots as well.
